This entire thread is just memes instead of discussion. This feels like peak reddit shittery.

I remember when I used to get excited for new phones…

Since about the s20 it’s all been the same shittery. No jack, no SD card, just gimmicks and prices that rival my mortgage payment.

Pure shite.

So where are programs installed?

I was playing with Linux the other day and installed something and was tearing my hair out trying to find where the exe or whatever was to launch the damn program.

None of the folders made any sense to me.

I’ve bee the using smartphones my entire life and I’ve fallen for this bullshit. I’ve instinctively pressed the first install button because my search was hyper specific, I just assumed it wouid be the first result.

But, of course it was an ad. Fucking Google.

The gloomyness is definitely a problem. Progressives are usually better at empathy so they feel everyone’s pain. And if you are looking for it you’ll find shit and pain all day long.

We need more positive posts on here.

Linux had a similar outage a few weeks ago, my man.

True. But nothing to do with this incident. That’s the point.

Noone needs to defend Windows. We need to defend the truth. And the truth is that this was not a Windows issue. It’s a Crowdstrike issue.

🤣 These prices are hilarious

Two tenants

1. You must protect those weaker than you
2. You may only punch up or in self defense.

You don’t like paying for a phone that’s the price of a mortgage payment, while having features removed every year?

All the childish stuff he does aside, if that wasn’t enough, my problem with him is that he’s actively promoting fascist and undermining the working class.

This mother fucker has all the money in the world and he’s not content to do the kid dream stuff you describe, he’s actively helping fascist spread misinformation and is actively fighting against good wages and conditions for the working class.

So yea, fuck Elon and pretty much all of the rest of the billionaires.

The worst thing about the future is that everything is fucking data mining and ads. Yes, EVERYTHING, from cars to fucking refrigerators.

Ah ok, well that’s not for me

Can you make screens / folders? And use icon packs?

I tried it, but it seems like you can’t make screens / folders? What am I missing?

Where is the beta and why isn’t it the main version?

Most one sentance advice is just a deepity

Generally, a deepity has (at least) two meanings: one that is true but trivial, and another that sounds profound, but is essentially false or meaningless and would be “earth-shattering” if true. To the extent that it’s true, it doesn’t have to matter. To the extent that it has to matter, it isn’t true (if it actually means anything). This second meaning has also been called “pseudo-profound bullshit”.

They are called deepities

To add to this, religious people are told from an early age to be credulous and believe in top down authority and not to question authority.

These “values” line up perfectly with authoritarians/assholes.

This is not just a Christian / Republican problem. Throughout history, authoritarians and religion have walked hand in hand.
