And you know what that bundle of sticks is called in Latin? Fascis. That’s where the name comes from.
Also, nationalsocialism is just one of plenty forms of fascism. It’s an umbrella term. And arguing that a poster warns of the wrong sect of genocidal nationalist dictatorship, is just absolutely beyond any kind brain rot.
Not for you. And certainly not for the staff working in the shop.
Currently, you’re bartering with copious amounts of copium.
… And if the systems you actually interact with go down, you can get fucked as well.
If you want to buy food with Monero and the payment processor for the local shop doesn’t work, even if it’s a local machine sitting in the back office, you still can’t buy anything.
Bitcoin lightning is absolutely hilarious. Your solution to Bitcoins problems is - not using Bitcoin. Wow, galaxy brain move.
The energy cost to maintain the base chain is <1% of global energy use, mostly from renewables
Yeah, that’s bullshit. First of all, 1% of energy use for a network that serves a few million transactions per day is really bad. A single 1kW node in Visa’s datacenter churns through that in an hour.
Second, it’s not renewables. It’s everything they can get for cheap. And that’s often enough coal, gas, oil. Also, they’re driving up power demand as a whole, which means fossil energy is actually needed longer.
Repairability doesn’t really matter if you only get two years of software updates.
Yes, there’s lineage OS, but whether their support will be better, is doubtful.
We shouldn’t support a company that openly says they don’t give a crap about their users’safety.
Counting on other people’s hate for your own gain, isn’t that stupid unfortunately.
Or at least it can be quite profitable. See all the grifters in the space.
I earn more than Donald Tusk. That’s interesting.
That’s decades of legacy for you…
I bet each step/arrow/decision had a good reason at some point, but most of them probably back when computers lived in caves and hunted their tapes using spears and rocks.
I feel like we’re slowly reaching a point where the complexity is collapsing in on itself - just look at the absolute chaos a modern web app is.
That’s the point.
In Germany there was a battle between left and right back then. The economy boomed in the 20s and faltered in the 30s. Capitalists saw the threat of socialism looming just behind Poland and so they supported fascism.
The Nazis funneled billions into large businesses. It was unsustainable and morally multi-level wrong, but they skimmed a lot of profits from these agreements. They got rich, while the economy started to collapse - even before the war.
Even after the war, most of them got away. They kept much of their wealth.
Unfortunately, the current finance minister is really that stupid.
Absolute braindead wannabe neoliberal.
Prudes…
Java’s Duke just stands there, fully nude and is giving NullPointerException fucks.
That is absolute nonsense. SUSE mostly serves large enterprise customers.
And where do you think the people deciding what to buy get their information? Mind share is important.
I’m pretty sure SUSE is bigger than Canonical.
That’s actually surprising to me, but I’d argue that Suse offers more products, it seems like Rancher, Longhorn, etc. have no canonical equivalent.
The idea was probably rather that the right would spin this as some sort of attack on their existence and go full on Reichstagsbrand.
Playing the victim is the entire Spiel of the far right, it’s not implausible that actually being a victim would create a boost from undecided voters.
I get the sentiment, though.
Some places define “toxicity” as anything a millimeter away from the party line or any debate at all. And it’s just annoying that someone can abuse their power to silence everything they don’t like.
Communities like this turn into Pleasentville.
Reboots after three days and then disappears in the cloud.
And you really think, people who are willing and able to buy enterprise support for their Linux distro get confused by the naming? Sure, there’s that one confused dude, but you also have people asking Facebook where they left their keys.
OpenSuse is essentially free marketing for SUSE, nobody would know them otherwise. Why would you give that away?
Suse is not a huge company, it has neither a large enterprise backer nor any killer features, and its market share is relatively small compared to Red Hat or Canonical. Throwing away free marketing while alienating a relatively passionate community is a kind of brainrot only MBA can come up with.
Realistically, that’s all most people need. And for the price of a nicer MacBook, you can’t really complain.
The only real issue is safety, that might add a few hundreds or thousands.
Schizophrenics have unique perspectives, that doesn’t mean, they’re correct or even valuable.
I didn’t mix it up, that was on purpose.
