  • Catholicism and conservatism are bipolar opposites. Like, I don't get how you can love and accept Jesus while hating poor or nonwhite people

  • Not yet, but as long as google is in charge, they would keep enshitifying it gradually (hence boiling the pot/frog).

    Quoting https://keepandroidopen.org/ """ Nine steps. A mandatory 24-hour cooling-off period. For installing software on a device you own.

    Worse: this flow runs entirely through Google Play Services, not the Android OS. Google can change it, tighten it, or kill it at any time, with no OS update required and no consent needed. And as of today, it hasn't shipped in any beta, preview, or canary build. It exists only as a blog post and some mockups.

    ...

    The principle being established: the company that made your device gets to decide, after you've bought it, what software you're allowed to run. In software, this is called a "rug pull"; but at least you could always install competing software. In hardware, it is a fait accompli that strips you of your agency and renders you powerless to the whims of a single unaccountable gatekeeper and convicted monopolist. "'"

  • Elton John reference

  • Does it work though? In my experiments, I haven't had much luck

  • I mean they fund kernel development which in turn indirectly funds OS . Like, what would the OS run without a kernel

  • I'd disagree with that. The fact that they maintain a really good privacy respecting OS publicly available and open source is a point to me

  • On another note, do you think the EU would have interest in forking android considering its push towards digital sovereignty away from US big tech

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    Can the GNU/ Linux Foundation Fork Android and Maintain it?

  • You could always do the *snip *snip route

  • Image seems like he's the false prophet summoning demons at top lol

  • Probably trained AI on trump's deranged tweets. No sane man can read his full tweets or make tweets like trump without feeling schizo and brain being smoothed out

  • Microslop

  • Damn this is interesting

  • I disagree. My opinion is that the technology did change. It just became more efficient at doing its job (killing people, surveillance, and mass propaganda).

    The internet was supposed to be a gateway of information, but now it's the largest propaganda network. Free speech is censored by closed source algorithms and the entire internet infrastructure is controlled and owned by the 1%.

    We are more isolated compared to before, class solidarity is almost nonexistent, and its easier to identify people now vs before due to being interconnected real time.

    I can go more on and on but the tldr is that technology has made it easier and faster to crush dissent

  • I guess you could put it that way. For most general applications, I prefer to use flatpak over pacman. Pacman and arch's repos to me are still very confusing over other package managers (dnf, apt, etc)

  • It's an uphill battle, but it's better to start early than late.

    Unlike before, the rich now have private armies, lobbying groups, and mass surveillance networks while we peasants own nothing. Plus, the pot is slowly boiled.

  • The alternative was just another corporate democrat who couldn't keep his marbles straight and was switched out at the very last minute to an unpopular corporate democrat. The DNC fucked themselves over on purpose.

    But yea, it still boggles me how Trump won (twice)

  • I dunno. It feels like copium/ hopium to me.

    I mean it's great and all that people are protesting and getting organized but I don't feel like it matters much if it just lasts for 1 day every 3-4 months as it doesn't disrupt anything when people are just chanting boos.

    It feels like the recent protests are more of a symbolic ritual / public vent and that for this protest to be successful, there has to be a main body organizing it (like the black panthers or martin Luther king in the 1900s).
