Dunning-Kruger effect

could you please explain further what you mean and what you're referring to?

but the dome is round, yeah? :>

not sure if you're being sarcastic, but if anything this news paints linux deployment in an even better light.

and probably have some of the most depraved porn habits imaginable

cos nothing proves "microsoft <3 opensource" like releasing a project over ⅓ of a century old

great news, openai keeps getting more open by the minute

/s

this is the (un)fortunate reality.

unfortunate in that keeping a modern browser up to date is a serious task when you need to compete with the agenda and scale of google etc

fortunate in that its a relatively simple solution, the community needs to fund the software.

its tough though as i can imagine if they pulled the kind of popup shit wikipedia does, it will just drive people away. what people don't realise ofc is that with chrome you are paying for it (with your data), but for some reason they're not viewed in the equivalent light.

Microsoft is like the rich guy with the nice pool. Its looks nice. But then you learn they got rich by cutting corners and screwing over your friends. And are actively investing in making the public pool shit so they can grandstand their pool.

Noone is blaming you for going up to the rich guys pool to have a nice easy time. Or at least, I'm not defending the kind of linux zealots who might blame you for choosing that

But I equally believe it is right and fair for us to have the freedom to state the very valid reasons why we are choosing not to go up there.

why is that? it's not punching down when its a billion dollar company

edit: no coherent thoughts then? just mindless downvoting? well you've convinced me with that persuasive logic.

it's genuinely concerning to see the microsoft stockholm syndrome in the wild, but on lemmy it's honestly baffling.

nearly asked you for a tutorial, then re-read lolol....

some more

public philosophy mirages

eg.1 "free market will balance everything"

will it now? until we actually see one, we'll never know. we don't live in a free market, and never have. they rig the shit out of it with eg. drm and region locks, and then gaslight us that its free & balanced. lol.

eg.2 "democracy is the best we have"

same as above, when i see a true democracy i'll let you know. caveat: unsure of your exact country's situation, but when was the last time you consistently voted on what you want to happen, rather than who will fail to implement their election promises (with 0.0% accountability btw).

also, friendly reminder: mostly the "who", you can vote for was already chosen in a private vote by the political parties, before they even pretended to care about our opinion. lol.

strawman public discourse

arguing in the media over the wrong points in an issue to keep public discourse on a 'lively' treadmill

eg.1

Q: Is climate change human caused?

A: Doesn't change the issue: stop poisoning the water, air and soil - we need them to live. duh.

eg.2

Q: Is being lgbqta a choice?

A: Doesn't change the issue: if its not a choice they can't control it, leave these people alone. if it is a choice, its a free country, leave these people alone.

edit: if you disagree with any of the above, please expand, i'm open to a new perspective.

expect they've found a way to 'profit' off the collapse already. might be one of the reasons they're doing nothing to stop it
