what all theory, no praxis, no history does to a person you see all over lemmy…

the thinking becomes rigid and stale

the young people are tired of their labor being stolen to benefit a corrupt class of capital holders, and they’re saying enough is enough. indonesia, nepal, and bulgaria are refusing fascism and demanding something else. what would be more wrong is tolerating fascism, which is what far too many people around the globe are doing

me and my wife have this dynamic. i’m from southern appalachia and she cannot understand the shanendoah or allegheny accent at all. if i say something particularly idiomatic she’ll ask me what i mean because our verb syntaxes carry a little extra information AND we have tonals

yeah you’ll have to install some helper scripts or switch to either fish or zsh. bash is nicer than bourne shell, but it is VERY basic in features by modern standards

the regulations on intensity never presumed we’d use such small arrays to produce that intesity. in the cabin, the lights projected onto the road don’t seem that different from 20 years ago. but from the other way it’s dazzling

my c posts in my 2020 car are so big that i frequently have no idea there’s a pedestrian right in front of me about to enter a crossing. it stresses me out

CoMaps is GOATed. i need to make some edits in my neighborhood

what’s google got to do with it? this is an article about a product develeped at GitHub (now a microsoft subsidiary) causing problems with Windows and the thumbnail is showing produts from the following companies:

• facebook
• discord
• microsoft

like. look. i hate google. they partner with israel to conduct genocide (don’t use waze, btw, or better yet, don’t use any google products). but this seems like not looking at the whole of how evil all of big tech is just to focus on how evil one company in big tech is

“unused ram is wasted ram”

yeah yeah yeah, great. but all you motherfuckers did that and i’m fucking out of ram.

sometimes lemmy doesn’t mark messages you’ve read and replied to as read, so voyager continues to show as red. the real question isn’t “do i have the notification number” it’s “has the notification number changed”

for me, inbox zero will remain 105 until i decide to empty the whole thing

especially when the origin state is red

what about those of us who embrace absurdism while things are going poorly and active nihilism when they’re going well?

wait till you find out companies that operated in South Korea had to support Internet Explorer until 2020

not… sure how i’m fanboing for android here when i’m saying that both google and apple are complicit in genocide and you should, if you can, do business with neither

pay particular attention to the invasive telemetry section. this isn’t by accident. ios promises to respect your privacy in its advertising, and does a better job than stock android, but the fact remains that the company is subservient to the states it partners with, one of which is the United States, which has close ties to israel. if your plan is to use your phone with whatever os it comes with, the iphone is more secure. but for a military force like the IDF, they can dictate and even issue whatever would be the most secure. the fact that they do not means these considerations are seen as a positive

they are enforcing the discontinuation of one because they got more spyware into it. they view this as a liability because it means there’s more backdoor holes in it and they don’t want that compromising their officer corps’ operational security. however, they also don’t want an entirely spyware free solution for their officers. their entire system of control is built from the ground up on surveillance and enforcing ideological purity. so they still want to spy on their officers. the iphone has the balance they’re looking for

frankly this is because israel knows exactly how much spyware they’ve gotten their partner, Google, to put into android. the iphone is also chock full of spyware, and they do want to spy on their military force to make sure it’s as ideologically and racially pure as they need it to be to continue their genocide. further consider that budget iphones don’t exist and you realize that their systemic impoverishing of the indigenous Palestinian people means that all of the targets of their genocide are much more likely to be android users than iphone users. given this, israel is in real time creating a new signifier of jewish-israeli identity. soon having an android phone as civilian will be evidence of HAMAS.

and again.

i want to remind everyone that google is a major partner to israel. this is not a case of iphones bad guys, android phones good guys. this is a case of both being components in a system of torture. i can’t tell you yet to divest yourself of both to switch to linux phones like postmarketos because even i can’t do that without buying a new device, but please watch that space. and until you can, if you’re using a google pixel please consider installing grapheneos, and if you’re not please consider using a de-googled lineage based rom. israel greatly values the intel they get from their partner google.
