Do you understand what I am saying?

THERE IS SHIT IN THE MEAT.

I never knew the scope of the errors in judgement that the navy chiefs have made lately.

Bicycles are one of the few things I spend money on these days, but I have been lucky to get quite a few for free. For some reason people discard a lot of bicycles at my local dump. I have found some real classics to refurbish. Some I keep and some I have redistributed to family and friends.

Unless they build something that isn't locked down and obsolete shit after 5 years, it is just as fucking useless as a 5 year old iPad.

Can't upvote this enough. GE is a legend. A perfect example of build what you want and open it up to benefit a community! Thank you!

A Trump insider said Trump used to be VERY jealous of Bolsonaro's crowds.

Trump had heard they had Brazillions out there to support him on election day.

Save us 5 years. Just put the new ipad into e-waste collection now. Meanwhile, anyone want to use all the real tools designed specifically to make music? Any kid with half a brain will spend their $1000 musicmaking budget on something useful

Hey Apple, Great ad. It perfectly encapsulates what an iPad is...a shit product juiced from the tears of real creativity - A soul crushing, art destroying block of useless shit forged from real tools.

I'd have a beer with these fine upstanding young lads.

"Just buy new stuff" is the mindset of the perpetually boring and uncreative. Break shit and build better stuff.

Yes, the reality of the computer industry is that the industry changes. That has quite the dual meaning. I want it to mean it changes for the better...ahem....Open Source

If people want to use a working twenty year old device, it is completely reasonable to complain that Windows doesn't allow that - because that is where Linux STANDS ON ITS OWN MERITS

[-] Dumpdog@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

Treating Windows unfairly? Blindly hating Windows? Microsoft is a corporation designed to MAKE DOLLAZ SON. They aren't your unfairly treated friend who wants to make sure you have an amazing gaming experience. They are part of a corporate duopoly. Meaning...dun dun dun - One of two shite options. I don't include Linux in this because it is the exact opposite of this market dominance. It is a free market of choice - which you can choose to better by contributing code, monetarily, or promotional support.

Windows is actively user hostile, actively contributing to planned obsolecence, and overall an ad infested spyware pile of bloated inefficient garbage.

As an IT Professional you should have first hand experience of the waste that comes from technological churn.

Linux standing alone on it own merits... Yeah right. Linux standing up against hundreds of millions of dollars spent in PR, Advertising, and the business practice of embrace, extend, and extinguish. You want better shit? Be a part of a community instead of brainlessly buying a solution.

OP - I salute you and your 20 year old peripherals. At least you are creatively making something you have work rather than buying shit that causes more problems.

I will happily shill for the Linux project and any other open source project - for volunteers trying to make something they want to use.
