Ah yes, New York south of Texas

no but trans people get death threats from “anti-tankies”

Even alternatehistoryhub, infamous youtuber known for his weird conservative takes, came to this conclusion

It’s optional so eh, but it doesn’t encorurage healthy habits either

Idk about the porn, but for the tankie thing, it’s probably because it’s just a political insult that doesn’t have any real meaning like “libshit”, “demonrat”, etc so enforcement is very subjective

I’m also not on dbzer0 so take my comment with a grain of salt

It’s an app that encourages users at a random time to share an image of their immediate surroundings, trying to kind of push an authentic feel. I remember hearing about it from some memes a year or so ago

It’s never really about identifying anything, recaptcha cares way more about data it has on you to determine if you’re a human or not. If you’ve ever tried to google search with a VPN or Tor it makes it really fuckin annoying

I nabbed a 6800 XT for $550 last fall also for VR and the same one’s even cheaper now (but the 7800 XT probably has it beat assuming the same or greater performance)

are these “tankies” in the room with us right now?

Lemmy isn’t known for using bots to fill in gaps in user engegement, mostly

I never understood this either. “Why are users of an aggressively open-source service so adamant about using open-source software?” Especially when Lemmy’s been around for years, so yeah it’s cultivated a majority Linux userbase.

Tesla is not close to bigger than GM. They only make consumer vehicles and maybe a model of semi truck but I don’t think that’s being produced yet, while GM has been making consumer cars in addition to commercial and military vehicles for decades. They might be valued as more but that doesn’t really say anything in practical terms.

What’s IPFS in layman’s terms? The Wikipedia is hard for me to follow lol

GNU Lynx is the only acceptable browser

What I thought was interesting about this is that apparently not only me, but tons of other people have all kinda felt like LTT has seemed off the past year or so, and this video kinda explained it all

I don’t mind just filters, but reporting it to the parent doesn’t sit right with me. It probably depends on the parent though

At the end of the day I think peoples’ systems should be made with open-source components, like firmware and OS, and then they can choose whether to put closed-source apps on it or not.

That being said, I personally moved away from proprietary social media (except youtube) mostly because they’re proprietary, plus ad tracking, so I don’t like the idea of throwing it all away just to put another closed-source app on my phone. But that’s just me
