Look, that you’re used to the garbage UI doesn’t change that it’s garbage and in dire need of a fundamental revamp. If almost everyone here (and everywhere else) says that it sucks or is intransparent, then YOU may be the odd one out here ;)

Imagine hating usable software you don’t need a PhD for. It’s kinda pathetic to make this your point of pride.

Camus! Just enjoy everything! Rebel against meaning!

It’s not psychology, it’s attentiveness.

It’s really not that simple. Look at Austria, for example. It’s also a lot about culture and society itself and how it developed. We are exporting nazis ffs. Shit that gets people thrown out of parties in Germany (like Krah) is just another Tuesday in Austria. And we have a great educational system. Of course with ways to improve.

I just burst out laughing, that was utterly unexpected and brilliant.

Yeah I was like “maybe I was wrong” but then I came to that part and just had to laugh.

I would love to assume that everyone is benevolent - but they simply are not. It’s not like there aren’t sufficient examples of states without police or military power. They surely don’t correspond to this fantastical view.

In general, peaceful protests have been historically way more effective. But if you let the violent bigots get too far, especially into governments, you will have no other choice than to remove them with violence. I don’t think the world is there yet, but if they are enabled further it “soon” will be.

Meatbags gonna meatbag.

Right, because fuck paying for proper journalism. Everything must be free!

Remind me again, how does that work?

Yeah, go read a book or something.You have no idea what you are talking about.

That’s not an unpopular opinion, it’s an outrageously stupid and uninformed one and you should keep it to yourself.

From my view: If I get a game called WalkScape I don’t want to play it actively. So if those things can only be progressed on the couch, I won’t touch them. And if that locks me out of other content, that sucks.

And if it’s just AFK, then it also goes against the purpose/vision of the game. Not saying that you’re doing it, but don’t bloat it with unnecessary mechanics.

May I ask what the reason for the battery drain was?

So?

Biden’s support for Israel wasn’t nearly as flagrant as it is now

You’re saying that about a guy who has been saying shit like “I am a zionist” every year while sucking Israel’s dick. LOL.

You’re just showing that you have 0 idea what you’re talking about and that your opinion is only based on your fantasies, reality does not seem to be of interest to you.

The point is that green energy, so solar, wind, etc. is cheaper, quicker, easier, and more sustainable while providing everything that is necessary.

After getting the shakes, sweating profusely and not being able to sleep for a few days when quitting, I really wouldn’t say it’s not physically addictive.

With Gemini you can let it show you search results for (some) of its statements. It’s useful for cross-checking: I was, for example, researching plastics recycling and there was a claim that seemed untrue and corporate. The automagic search/source function for that statement led me to a blog post of some consortium/lobbying group of manufacturers. After telling that to Gemini it apologized and compiled a list of different view points for that specific statement.

I was pretty impressed with that, and I find it very useful for researching topics I know basically nothing about. Of course it’s not the sole source of truth.

That’s not how this works. Maybe if you get some business consultants, but this ain’t it. Just because you hire them yourself, doesn’t mean that they’ll fall in line with your wishes.
