I guess when you make the distinction between open source and free software it can be that way. Free software is definitely an anti-capitalist movement. And, personally, I think although open source is useful to capitalists (it can give you

This is going to be a weird thing to say but: What happens if I'm a genuine nazi user (and follow lots of nazi content creators) and also interested in computers? Eventually they would see Apple ads next to Nazi posts. Right? Anyone th

Using the justice system to go against journalists is literally the least 'freedom of speech' thing you can do.

Celebrity gossip dressed in big tech. And the people love it. I'm kinda sick of it :P

What point are you trying to make? This person was literally telling the journalist how she NEEDS this subsidies to be able to live; what's she going to do when it goes away? Do you think she will magically become able to pay for the

Funny you mention Chile, considering it had a huge social uprising in 2019 that was precisely a consequence of the political and economic measures that have been left as Pinochet's legacy. A lot of the policies we implement today won&#

The bad policies we implement today will not really be seen until years down the line. Where is the UK heading? And how much of that is a consequence of Thatcher's policies. What Argentina needs is responsible leaders, not really an au

It's a big problem because their catalog is also so spotty. They should probably be ordering seasons in batches. Show runners don't really have much of a say, if they're told "okay we can give you one season and see how

There was an interview going around online: They are talking to a woman that's about to go into a public bus, she says "I can't live without the transportation subsidy, I would literally not be able to afford the commute and

Despite inflation I would say Argentinians still have a relatively high quality of living compared to most other countries in the region. The reason for this is that the state is still capable of providing decent services to people. Argenti

I stopped my Netflix subscription after they cancelled 1899. I really enjoyed the first season and while it might not be for everyone I thought it was amazing television. It really sucks when you get excited by a project just for it to be c

Machines cannot express, as far as I know. They're sophisticated tools but still tools. If someone feels these tools help them express what they want, if they are satisfied, I would call that a form of self-expression. I mean, who am I

Why would I go see a jazz band made of 20something year olds when I can just go into youtube and hear all the masters in the comfort of my bedroom? Oh, maybe because watching live music is a different experience. Maybe because being the bes

I really hope this brings doesn't turn out to be another "elon musk will be flooding your timeline even if you don't follow him or have ever interacted with his tweets" scenario. I wouldn't really want to start seei

If you think about it, the secret sauce tends to be in the data they're able to capture and input into the recommendation algorithms rather than the recommendation algorithm itself. I mean, even Tiktok has papers detailing their recomm

Statistically less well educated might be relevant, income? Not so much. Unless you want to imply here that there's a link between lower income and lower technical expertise in using phone operating systems. I would imagine that simply

Good. They need a bit better website design though. You shouldn't need to scroll through an editorial column to get to the articles.

I go to threads here and there. It's okay, it's definitely a different feel than what I get on Twitter and I'm okay with that. I don't think this is an app that requires a huge amount of resources to be run so as long as

The last impressive development for the 2D Mario games to me was Mario Maker. It was genuinely exciting and offered so much for people to just go insane with. I particularly loved those levels where you would just run in one direction and c

This is very nice. It's a good tool for academics wanting to engage with the work of other academics. I think, however, the biggest issue with scholarly communication right now has to do with how inaccessible the language and technique

I'm pretty happy with my jellyfin solution. It's not perfect, but I have a pretty good workflow that works well for me. Anime support could be a bit better. But oh well.

Surprised they're not launching it everywhere at the same time like they usually do with "new features". I guess they've learned that such a big change might require some testing and adjusting first. Which is good. That

Maybe I can vote for tab groups like chrome has it. Grouped by color and clicking on them expands/contracts the group. I use simple tab extension currently, it's okay. But it's not what I want.
