People are going to die. That Tesla cybertruck came with safety flaws, from breaking bones and risk of death. And that was WITH safety oversight.

Imagine all the other flaws that were found and they had to be fixed which slowed down development, upsetting the efficiency deity or shareholders or whoever the fuck

The next Tesla model released is going to cause deaths on release day, if that project has no safety oversight.

I'm kind of high, so I can't tell if my opinion is obvious or unfounded or made any sense at all.

isnt this how cyberpunk happens big corporations seize democracy and eventually you have a terrorism charge for saying xzy Corp is shit, while everyone else is now much poorer.

Do you think enough people will learn of this in time for the jury selection, in theory?

Historically, how often has this happened?

Can nods or other physical gestures count as an intent to nullify the process? Like a fresh tattoo of the green super mario bro. There's plausible deniability there, right?

Sorry for all the questions, I'm just sick of talking to chatbots. I crave answers from human beings. I don't want a chatbot's heartless, supposedly unbiased answer. Throw in as much bias as you'd like.

Please don't haunt me

Makes me think of how many people will remain in the closet, because they fear the possibility of these stupid and disgusting repercussions.

From my anecdotal experiences, people who have come out publicly as LGBTQ seem a lot happier afterwards.

While I was in a mental health clinic for depression, anxiety coupled with a cocaine and drinking problem, I spoke with another patient about my fairly unhealthy coping mechanisms. She noted that her brother was fully addicted to every drug he could get his hands on, for many years of his life while being completely depressed. Going in and out of rehabs and clinics, but never kicked any of it. Once he came out as gay, i.e. be his true self, he managed to quit the drugs and was a lot more happy in general.

One of my favourite YouTubers to watch is Philosophytube. She made an announcement video where she came out as trans. She had a quote near the end of the video that went something like

When people ask me, "Do you feel like a man or a woman", I say, I feel happy.

If a person stays in the closet, of course they will become depressed. Sexuality and gender Identity is a core part of being human.

They already fear being ousted by family and friends, but now the government is involved, even more will silently suffer because of who they are.

I'd give anything to alleviate my mental health issues. I have no idea why I'm depressed, but if I did, and I knew I'd be punished for being myself, that would make matters a lot worse

You make a very good point and are clearly a lot more knowledgeable than me.

I'm going to rephrase. Windows 11 was shitty from the start. I can defend that statement, which we both agree with, to save my ego from internal bleeding.

They keep adding shitty things to it.

I skimmed an article on enshittification yesterday

It mentioned Windows

Can something be enshittified if it was shit from the start?

You can't lay a finger on an oligarch, so no one bothers.

Law: He'll get pardoned, pre pardoned and whatever other bullshit he can think up.

Pitchforks: People have to unwillingly partake in the machine or the machine will crush their family. They can't risk going up against the security detail of one of the richest people alive.

Marijuana: sorry that's about as far as I can type for the night.

Main takeaway: That is a very good question that too few people will ask themselves before it affects them.

I wouldn't really call myself a distro hopper, but in the last few months I've had to do some fresh installs on a couple of machines and VMs for work

If these aren't included by default, I'll make sure to get em:

GUI:

  • Firefox & Chromium
  • Gimp & Krita
  • VSCode/VSCodium
  • Okular
  • Libre office

CLI*:

  • git
  • wget&curl
  • neovim
  • zsh/ohmyzsh + plugins
  • glow
  • neofetch
  • figlet/toilet
  • zellij
  • python
  • nodejs/npm/nvm + nodemon globally
  • ranger/rifle

Also, how do you go about migrating your old config and rc files? Start fresh or just copy em over and make adjustments where necessary?
