Professionally/commercially they’re MILES ahead of Red hat, Oracle, or Suse.

Personally/free they do weird shit that usually doesn’t seem make sense on its surface if you’re not getting paid to learn it.

Take snaps for example: flatpak/app image/whatever makes more sense if you only care nothing beyond getting/running the software; but in a professional setting where you need third party info for something like an sbom or some sort of industry compliancy, snaps make it easy.

they won’t even admit that something huge like a genocide is taking place; what chances are there for something small like a rule change with get any attention?

it’s always one or 2 democrats and it will always be; it was lieberman the last time before sinema and manchin.

democrats never did when they had the opportunity and needed it. why would they now if they don’t need it?

last time i had to do this; i got around it by using another app that provided fake gps coordinates of your choice.

i’m aware of it and havent yet jumped the wagon because of my experience in the past w other firefox clones like iceweasel.

librewolf is my most likely bet; i want to stay away from anything chromium based.

i think that the first sign of enshitification is its leaders and it seems like it’s already here.

i’m wondering what browser to switch to next.

agreed and i’d like to think that my autism induced isolation enables me to have these views as a sort of silver lining to being on the spectrum.

i’m convince that liberals and conservatives alike only go by what their in-group says and they become leftists and independents once they spend more than the average amount of effort to scratch beyond the surface.

this and macron creating a conservative government despite leftists winning the most votes in france makes me wonder if a leftist victory is ever possible.

I was referring to an article from politico that said so

why did they hate him?

i wish i had advice to offer you, but i’m in a similar boat with my senior cat.

i was devastated when my senior dogs & cats passed away and i was able to weather it each time it happened thanks entirely to my other pets commiserating with me; my 16 year old cat is the last one left alive and he’s been by my side through all of those deaths.

the bar for approval to get another pet from the shelter is far too high; too long; and too invasive were i live for my attempts to be successful, so i’ve only adopted pets that i found on the streets and those that others wanted to surrender to the shelter.

i’m on the spectrum which makes human relationships very difficult to create and maintain, which means that my cat is my life.

i cannot express how much i dread the inevitable day that i have to see him suffering once he gets ill and i have to decide to it’s best to end his life.

i hope you’re better prepared than i am.

and you spend your entire tenure trying to convert it into another language while simultaneously adding to the pile.

switch to gen-x; they’re much trumpier than boomers.

and now he’s a “philanthropist”

emphasis on the quotes since he’s put his wealth into a charity; like most of the utlra wealth do; to avoid taxes so now he’s legally required to spent 5% of it in philanthropy.

they were trying to make a windows alternative since microsoft was using their leverage w windows to make corel lose money and courts were doing little more than slapping microsoft on the wrist for doing it.

i could understand it when biden was running; that guy was responsible for whipping up so much anti-gay hate that people back in the day thought that he was too rabidly conservative to be president when he tried running for president in the past; but now the overton window has shifted so far to the right the people call him progressive and the gays he’s fucked over will never vote for him; it’s only the young or the gays lucky enough to never experience his anti-gay fervor that wanted to vote for him.
