i am very skeptical that this new UI is really better. I will give it a shot, but seriously, things should just stop changing things just for the purpose of changing it

exactly, those who scream loudest about these things tends to be the biggest offenders themselves. There is an old saying: "thief thinks every man steals". This is of course not a 100% rule, but odds are generally good :)

about the same option I have not to have linkedin, "its where my career networks". Does it have some kind of opportunity cost? it probably does. I know people that got exciting job offers that would not have happened had they not

face it, the youtube offering is just kinda shitty. its like with piracy of music, movies and such, it is a distribution problem. Does it make it legal in the case of music/movies? probably not. Is it legal to adblock? in most places,

in 2007 when ios first released, we had the ability to open files without insanities everywhere else. it was total insanity it was not possible, part of the apple thinking that you only do what they 100% say. Who would dare have some video

i would, but thats a bit more forgivable :)

i like how we are talking about an OS that initially released in 2007, and only got support for "opening files in place" in 2015. What a time to be alive, we can open files in place and all.. gotta give apple credit, while the res

KDE 3.x was really great, at 3.4, pretty much all the bugs you'd hit were gone, not that earlier releases were mega buggy, but one did encounter bugs here and there. I dont feel like we have moved 20 years forward, even though plasma i

so... convenience. and BTW I have relatives and friends that lives in the Philippines, though its a decade since I was there myself, I do keep up on the situation there, and know that it is entirely possible to live, buy food, go to the ban

without considering whether these features he lists are good, this has nothing to do with browser combination? it is just about these specific features in the email client?

> I might be old fashioned, but last time I checked, government's job was not to drive down living standards. thats because you have been reading the government marketing materials instead of looking at what they do

> If inflation is high, it is a bad time to listen to governments. Why complicate matters? I suggest we change it into: "It is bad to listen to governments"

can you elaborate on "cant do commerce" ? and then dont text people. people say the same shit about facebook, the people I know say the same, that "you cant do anything without it", yet I somehow manage. Would it perhaps

and then its same result as whatsapp. and then they should probably also turn their brain on when buying into this arrangement

and in the days of the WU telegraph network, you could most definitely go talk to the guys in charge, it was not a faceless corporation like facebook, or google. how easy was it to talk to the local USPS vs talking to a human at google? wha

and its impossible to show up at the office of whomever manages that? to grab a phone and call someone?

you are simply 100% unable to get a doctors appointment if you dont have whatsapp? i dont believe it. Well i guess it sucks to need an ambulance when whatsapp has its maintenance window, guess people will just have to die

that is definitely false, it may be the most convenient way, but please stop with the complete nonsense. How exactly does it work? can i not call a regular number? can i not go knock on their door? in what way has society changed in those p

> They owe us nothing. Are you referring to the actual "government" ? because in that case, it definitely seems like they owe their own citizens something?

it would probably be a good idea to teach regular users to activate their brain and think a bit about whether the stuff they use and rely on is really a smart decision. how many people would knowingly buy a house if it came with an expectat

> working within the system means complying with the CoC and any other terms & prerequisites to contributing and if there is no CoC? is it then respecting the system to throw a tantrum if they wont adapt one?

well guess what, as everyone likes to say, "we live in a democracy", part of the rules is respecting that other people have other opinions. If you work within the system in a legal and peaceful manner, then that is fair game, and
