  • I think this is on their eventual roadmap, somewhere just after not allowing anyone to log in without a verified WEI check for “”““security””“” yea

    Then you can stop all the YouTube rehosting sites like piped by baking in little 1 pixel changes that uniquely identify the account that ripped the video. Netflix and others will do this as well too try to stop piracy.

    They’re going to go scorched earth on this, I just know it. The Internet will become as bad as cable was and this is the turning point.

    Whatever it is I hope we don’t end up “selling out” for a higher market share. KDE is proof that you can have stability while also having infinite configuration options. Gnome seems to be openly hostile to any other way of doing things that isn’t the gnome way.

    I don’t mind gnome existing but it isn’t for me and I hope I don’t get forced into using something that I can’t modify to meet my workflow wishes. I’m seeing a lot more programs being written without prioritizing being desktop agnostic. I think we can forge our own path making a desktop that is both as stable as Mac OS and as approachably configurable as Linux should be.

    I’m coming into my 30s now sort of going the opposite direction you are. From my perspective I’m realizing that I missed out on creative expression until now because I subconsciously realized it wasn’t a “practical option” that I couldn’t afford, so I’m waking up to the fact that I’ve lived my life up to this point as a STEM bro type missing out on a huge spectrum of experiences, and it makes me feel robbed.

    I want to live in a fucking treehouse for a month, with a rope ladder, and a Zipline.

    When people complain about vegan diets lacking in x, y, or z I always point out that our diets are culturally balanced, as well as being balanced by the addition of vitamins to staple foods. If we all became deficient in say, iron, we would start fortifying iron in our water, flour, salt, rice etc, while at the same time we would culturally move towards eating more black beans and spinach than we currently do. When an individual removes a food group from their diet, it’s only reasonable that you will have to intentionally rebalance your diet in other places. This isn’t a deficiency inherent in a vegan diet.

    If you have to supplement a vitamin or mineral that’s just part of your diet, so don’t @ me with your natural=good nonsense.
