While I respect the contrast you're highlighting I disagree that they're therefore fundamentally different. In both cases its a form of social coercion to shape user behaviour to misrepresent the collective sentiment.

I don't see how moving to Appleland in Delltopia would affect my hearing but I'll take your word for it.

Not sure why you're getting greyed out, you're right. Lot of admin overreach on YouTube.

Poe's law is hot garbage though. If someone misses context because they're not privy to sarcasm, that isn't automatically the speaker's fault.

>"Losers. That’s who the U.S. government really has to fear.” So... they fear NYT? Does this count as a publication threatening the government?

Frederic Schuller's course of Gravity and Light, covering General Relativity. It has a few tactical gaps but it will give you everything you could ever practically need. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFeEvEPtX_0S6v

A lot of the examples on their front page I flat out disagree with, both because I hate the aesthetics, and because it represents user experience issues that I or my peers have frequently run up against. For example, borders: I would argue

This is more or less what I was reaching for, though my attempt was with far less clarity. Thanks for wording it better than I could. The occupation of the participants is an interesting angle. I wonder if it has been studied at any length.

Architects are above engineers? I think this is a highly subjective list.

So if I have this right, its bad to tell people what you do for a living, but its OK to tell people to stop telling people what they do for a living? What I find especially annoying is that the fact that 'what do you do' is being

On the one hand, good on her for taking a bold stance. I don't agree with it at all, but I appreciate the conviction. On the other hand, this makes some of her criticisms (e.g. supersymmetry being unphysical) ring a little hollow. But

The approach I use is, boringly, to use a computer monitor and connect that to a hub that I control. Its not elegant but its easy to control.

I like Brave's Defaults (har har) in a lot of places but I am firmly against their monetisation schemes. There is an attitude among a lot of people in the founder space that "subscription models are what everyone says they want -

So annoying. Monsters-the-mythical-creatures existed in the public conscience long before Monsters-the-low-tier-beverage. There is no chance this is being done in good conscience, and I hope the courts punish this accordingly.

I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, this seems like a legitimately good product. On the other, I can't help but feel this would have had greater impact had the Mullvad team collaborated with the LibreWolf project. Sure t

You provided a very thoughtful comment and I appreciate it, but why don't you type quotes "like this"? (Not a dig - genuine question)

I was going to argue, because I am part of the "fedora good :)!" crowd. Surely, fedora good? But considering the nonsensical arguments I've seen elsewhere around a certain OS whenever it is merely mentioned, I am starting to

Well thank the benevolent lord that NixOS is the only OS you have to google stuff for. Good heavens, I could only imagine the horror of googling for a bug in Debian. A relief such a thing is nary even conceived of.

This comment threw me off hard because of how loaded it is. 1. How does that address the fact that NixOS is immutable? 2. If discussing server side applications was the intention of the author, why didn't they make that the explicit fo

No NixOS? No Guix? C'mon those are the best ones!

The community DE versions DID change though, at the (rather mild) behest of Canonical. So while you're right, GP cited an article perhaps incorrectly, it does raise a new question of "OK but why did Canonical think this was approp

I'm actually very happy to see this because to me its a great business play by CoolerMaster: 1. It positions itself as part of the pro-repair crowd, which is already the crowd that supports building your own machine, and therefore buyi

This is your scheduled friendly reminder to try out Fedora Linux if you haven't tried Linux seriously yet. Its a great first Linux experience and comes with stock GNOME, which is a treat. It also has a KDE version, which is similarly a
