21 hours agoI’m surprised no one has challenged you on this. (I agree with your point, but people do tend to defend cameras zealously)

2·2 days agoDoesn’t seem possible they weren’t already doing that.
I thought I remembered seeing glossy cost extra before, which was funny to me.
Who is this and why does his face keep getting posted?
1·7 days agoI agree. Although over time some of the things we don’t expect to be impacted may be. I hope I’m wrong.
I mean yeah you could never get to 100% enforcement, like with every other law. But it wouldn’t be hard to have a huge impact against the big guys. Ignoring the law as one of those is not going to be smart. Unless you move your ops somewhere not impacted. But realistically it would be easier to just follow the law.
I’m not arguing it being an insane law. But it would be enforced by fining companies within applicable jurisdictions. Companies like system 76 or anyone else profiting from distributing an operating system, or anything else they can argue it applies to.
There’s not much that can be done about it.
According to many lemmings the elegant solution is to simply ignore the law entirely and pretend that will be ok
You are saying this to someone with 5 years of routinely changing major UI elements on GNOME and who has rarely had any issues with extensions breaking. Less than once a year.
I think the difference of experience is from how much we think the UI “needs” customizing. If I wanted GNOME to look like windows, I’d probably have had that experience. But that’s absolutely the furthest thing from what I’d ever want.
And before you claim I only use one or two extensions. Nope I’ve used 3-7 at all times.
1·8 days agoThat picture packs so much disturbingness into so few pixels.
I tried to customize the UI and had the DE crash like 5 times in 5 minutes. Took it as a sign. It’s ugly as can be but I was willing to put in some time to fix it but it seems luck was not on my side.
Even with several random extensions, gnome runs for 6 months for me before having the instability problems I had on KDE in 6 minutes
I think history tells us that
Lol thank you for enlightening me
I thought of different ways to word a response and then I saw another user put it perfectly already:
I would just also add that anecdotally they don’t seem to slow many people down in my city. I have gotten at least 5 speed camera tickets since I moved here, and every time I was going the speed of traffic and was unaware a camera even exists there. This city also has a huge problem with horrific driver behavior that goes unaddressed. I’ve seen some of the craziest shit ever here but I’ve yet to see anyone pulled over for a reason that didn’t appear to be related to a “worse” crime, as in they’re searching the person’s car and it looks like they’re about to go to jail. So I have to believe that the primary concern is making money, and if they work overall (providing the data people always tout) it’s a coincidence/accident. Most of that money goes to corporations too so even if you wanted to argue it doesn’t matter if money is the main driving force, you have that additional layer of the whole thing being corrupted from the start by capitalism.
