Wtf are you guys talking about, like desktop apps are the end all be all of computing. 98 percent of codebases contain open source. There’s like 5000 open source libraries in your iphone. For most things there just are no proprietary alternatives. It is the state of the art, ubiquitous in everything from medical equipment to satellites and TVs. The digital economy runs open source, with an estimated worth of 8.8 trillion dollars.

Good point, comrade. And internal and external brutalization goes hand in hand. But the US empire is sunsetting, approaching midnight. The race to create alternatives beyond what was yesterday starts today ♥️

All the histrionic shrieking we see from US liberals about Trump only works inside a western supremacist worldview that does not see the victims of US warmongering as fully human, and therefore sees scorched earth genocidal atrocities as less significant than comparatively minor abuses concerning US domestic policy.

Hedges is a gift to journalism.

Well said, Greta 💪

It’s hard to go back after Sway/I3 with pywal coloration, when everything is so sluggish in comparison. It’s amazing to see gnome and KDE adding like a second to launch/quit of common applications. Tried hyprland, but animations seemed choppy (beefy AMD desktop), has that changed?

I think pocket and quite the slew of unrelated features disagrees with you. Seems like most browsers are happy to be the everything app.

No Herr officer, I was just trying to download my favorite distros, and I don’t know where all that Metallica/Disney/Nintendo came from.

Why can’t browsers treat torrent as just another protocol for downloads, so that if you haven’t got a default set for torrent out magnets, just download it on the included download manager?

Sounds untrue. Source?

Why am I crying?

I’m having the same issue, and like others have said, using frontends Is a nice solution. However, they can be hard up remember. I searched for an extension to automate it, and found this. Seems awesome. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/

Never stayed much past lunch, myself. Working in finance

Fuck that red scare McCarthyism shit, and pretending like your imperialist overlords are not the main culprits of desinformation and propaganda in the world today.

How so?

All we have seen is decline. Imagine what it must have been like for our parents: continues progress. People in BRICS countries have that today.

No? I’m having a hard time separating actual disinformation and legitimate criticism being McCharty’ed. Eurovision is indeed legitimizing the apartheid state currently committing genocide, while my state is deeming protests Russian disinformation.

All my friends fucking love slanted spiral channels with periodic contraction-expansion arrays.

The ease of access and availability of unprocessed foods, or food products without high amounts of corn syrup, sugars and other additives, is much higher in most of the world outside of the US. I can never stay in the US for more than a couple of weeks without gaining weight. Then again, it doesn’t help that US food is fantastically tasty, either ♥️
