I used to dream of owning a small shack to live in but now I truly don’t give a fuck, I’m soon to be homeless and no longer care about society

I can empathize yo. I’ve been a long time digital privacy advocate with a track record of being very outspoken in public about my views which has occasionally resulted in some weird looks from my normal-ish friends. Hell, I get pissed these days in response to age verification, ai facial tracking, low energy Bluetooth tracking, etc… But I try to catch myself before spending the emotional energy on it because long term that isn’t good. When I’m unable to do that, I utilize that anger and stress to do something to combat those efforts whether that’s spreading the word, programming or developing software to mitigate it or offer free software alternatives.

I think its a normal response. People tend to forget that humans are still animalistic and really shouldn’t live like this. Anyways, I’m just a random person but I’m always down to chat if you want to vent :)

Yes, it’s accurate. Although I enjoyed using Ubuntu (iirc started with 5.10 or 6.10) due to it’s friendliness to newcomers, Canonical is on the business side of Linux distributions (think Redhat).

Debian (which Ubuntu is derived from), is privacy friendly and leans heavily towards the open source ethos imo.

With that being said there’s tons of options out there. Distrowatch is a great place to window shop before grabbing a live .iso :)

There are a few yahoo/msn articles referencing it, iirc it comes from an industry blog for leaks or something that is well known.

Hey man, the SNES is pretty hard to top

Because, its easier to catch many fish with a large net than many fish with a small one

Finally some good news

We do demand it, they don’t give a fuck. Even with insurance you can’t get help. Can’t even leave this place without being rich. Land of the free my ass.

Yay more slip sliding into technocratic control

ur bootloader

Loaded question. Governments, country and state level, technocrats, fascists.

Lots of disingenuous comments in this thread regarding the change being “just json” considering they’re already on a warpath of implementing id verification. They are testing the water to see what they can get away with. Furthermore, the Linux community has always been against shit like this (see: systemd outrage, open bios, gnu etc).

The videos were pulled from YouTube via court order.

Hey man, sometimes they have cats

Only thing I’ve noticed is quite a delay in notifications for some reason (could be self inflicted), haven’t looked into it yet

I was fired a month or so after the intentional stock market crash. Jobs are no longer existent, likely to be worse than 2008. Most of us can’t afford a home let alone rent for an apartment. Medication is expensive even with insurance, and that’s assuming you can even obtain it as the fda/dea are in some sort war causing shortages. Our government is killing people. Our friends are being put on lists/into databases for being queer. Our government is threatening our allies, resulting in them hating us further inhibiting our ability to get assistance and or leave. Concentration camps are being built. Drones are being tested around the country along with mass deployment of facial recognition cameras. Data centers are sucking up the water. All of our data was looted by foreign connected individuals posing as government waste reduction. They’re attempting to get rid of physical cash by removing production of the penny. Age verification laws are being baked into everything we love in an effort for additional surveillance. We’ve been infiltrated by Russia and Israel. We’re being dragged into another oil war even though many of us witnessed the effects of the previous one on our friends and family. They’re rolling back women’s rights. Pedophile billionaires are wrapped up in all this. And it seems anyone who could have done anything in their positions have failed us. So yes, I’d say that’s the definition of crashing out.
