I know it’s a crazy concept but a web browser is in fact running on your computer

If you want to show me a youtube video and a fuckin ad starts playing, we gon have problems

I’m gonna be that annoying cunt and say that this community is way too much of a sausage party to be making this kinda joke. I would love to read it as “haha lol that’s me” but in this community it comes off as “lol dumb woman annoying”. Misogyny is a massive problem on reddit, and we should try harder to create a more welcoming environment for women here.

Hm maybe I’m misinformed. Last time I read about this, I recall he was friends with somebody who was implicated with Epstein, not Epstein himself. And I recall reading that he later backpedaled on his statements before being reinstated.

Red Hat: Hi here’s some tools we made, you can see how every single one of them works in full detail and you can modify them as you see fit, and distribute modified copies.

Microsoft: Hi we peddle proprietary spyware and we aren’t even secretive about it.

Basically the same thing?

Also systemd rocks, and the kernel is widely audited OSS, Microsoft will have a very hard time sneaking in anything malicious.

Yeah lol. Unlike Gates tho, Stallmann actually felt the consequences of his words, and was removed from the FSF. Later he said he had been educated and apologized for his previous statements, he’s back at FSF now.

Remind me not to switch to piefed since they apparently delete all posts comments, saves and votes immediately.

sent this to a friend, his response:

Hi, I don’t know shit about fuck. Can somebody explain?

I dont think OP is talking shit about the entire boomer generation and more the kinda social spaces online that tend to be boomer-dominated

social democracy is the best form of capitalism but it’s still capitalism

I agree that there’s too many websites that want you to make an account, and often data harvesting is the motive. What I’m saying is, even if that’s not the case, I would still need a password manager to log into various services that require auth as a core part of the service (email, banking, social media, services with my payment information, insurance, version control, anything work-related, any paid service)

In a way, password managers are kinda the solution that prevent you from needing to involve a third party in your auth. You can even use completely open source software, and manage all the data yourself. That gives you way more control than say, oauth. Although sure, passkeys are better in many ways.

Even if we lived in a world where surveillance capitalism and personal data harvesting wasn’t a thing, you still need to identify yourself.

desperately hoping this is a prime tier shitpost

Wait you guys actually still aren’t using password managers? I thought it was a joke…

Yeah dad was already saying something like “let’s just get like 10 tetabytes (sic) so it will be enough for a long time” lol
