For me, it’s the unrenameable, unmoveable, non-hidden snap directory in my home directory’s root that doesn’t even follow the naming convention of the other directories in there.

I guess nobody is committing genocide with Pride flags on their arms, that’s the difference.

Honest question, what is the ableist slur being discussed?

So how is 19th century imperialism different from Roman imperial expansion or Greek colonialism in antiquity for example? Or the various attempts to resurrect the Roman Empire by basically everyone? Why don’t we call Roman emperors or Alexander the Great or even Sigismund imperialists? Honest question here, I’m not a historian or anything.

Epic CEO (makers of Fortnite, the Epic Games Store and Unreal Engine) who has regular rants on social media hating Linux.

They were calling it a cancer just a decade ago. Now they can’t ignore it.

You need a squirrel army to start the uprising to eat the rich, obviously

Or wanna bet it was some exec’s account who would have fired people for making his life inconvenient, but somehow now it’s going to be rogue engineers?

You can host Libreoffice Online if you really want

They don’t need to.

They only have to remove your personal data. So the company / AI model is not allowed to have data specifically on you, but it can have the average age of people living in your town even if your data contributed to calculating that average.

That said, Apple here never had affirmative consent, so they can’t get away with just doing this.

Not saying that it shouldn’t be illegal and it’s shady as fuck, but GDPR opt-outs are usually retroactive, meaning you can remove consent from data they’ve already processed, and they have to retroactively scrub your personal data out.

Other than the set duration, all ownership is at the government’s pleasure everywhere. Luckily, in a lot of places governments serve at the pleasure of voters.

JS is system agnostic, doesn’t require compilation or multiple dependency binaries, as opposed to say Python.

Can you expand on that? How does JS have less requirements than Python?

That is I guess Windows:

• Installed by the manufacturer
• “Maintained” by M$

Just joking tho, I run Fedora, even lazy people have standards.

Help me choose a distro!

My coffee preparation method is:

I drink this one kind of instant coffee that does not even need me to heat the water, I can just mix it in cold water and be good with it. It’s still coffee and I don’t have to make the slightest effort.

I guess the problem is that app developers write the installers, and they suck at following conventions. Obligatory fuck Snap, as it creates a folder in the home dir, and it doesn’t even bother to hide it, and it is not even reconfigurable.

or /opt, or a binary in some hidden folder in /home…

I guess that’s how they make a lot of money, selling their own Confluence plugin.

One other reason I could see is pure idiocy. Like I’ve seen that there is a bias to using every feature some software has, and if a max limit can be set, it will be set, to a “reasonable” value.
