Oh boy, Lemmy really doesn’t get sarcasm without the “/s”, huh?

There is a incredible amount of variety in modern music, you just have to look for yourself, and not just eat whatever is fed to you.

My only gripe with modern music, is that almost all live concerts seem to be single-artist now. I don’t know if this is an effect of hiphop becoming the biggest genre, but I miss seeing an entire band on stage, not just a rapper and/or a DJ. They are definitely still there, but much less than even 10 years ago.

I think you maybe read something that the op didn’t write? Pointing out that “there are racists everywhere” is in itself not a racist statement.

I think we are about to experience a true Butlerian Jihad. Not because of the fearsome power of AI, but because of the hatred of shitty LLMs.

Great! Now I know who to contact when I accidentally delete all the plaintext API keys and passwords I had stored in a public github repo.

Every time I compare specs to prices on Apples website, I get irrationally angry.

As another Dane, I often feel like I should hate the swedes, but they make it hard to do so by being awfully nice and inventing so much awesome stuff.

Managed to reach a rank of 2450 in World of Warcraft 2v2 arena. It took an incredible amount of much time and effort, and I have accepted that I will never be as good at anything ever again.

And 99% of computer use for most people is in a browser. No need for an overly complex OS, with constant stupid pop-ups to ruin that browser experience.

Defintiely! I recently bought a used Thinkpad and slapped Pop!_OS on it for my father-in-law. He’s 73 and he’s loving it! He proudly tells his friends that he is now “a part of a computer revolution”.

It’s honestly so weird that you can just take up public space with your dumb-ass car, that is not even in use 99% of the time.

Voting days should be mandatory holidays

Hell yeah. Shoutout to the Rail Planner app

I don’t think this about trying to close it, but rather put a big fat sticker on everything that comes out of the box, so consumers can actually make informed decisions.

I really like the idea of Nebula, but the way they market themselves as “creator owned” without being an actual workers cooperative seems deceitful (still much better than YouTube, though!)

I was just in Rome, and when I started getting hungry there was still an hour left until most restaurants even opened (19:30). Pure insanity to my Scandinavian habits.

The difference in results between Scandinavia and the rest of the EU is very interesting. A well-working educational system is clearly the best weapon against fascism.

I use KDE connect for remote controlling, so I never even noticed. But I can see that being an annoying loss.

I liked having both in the same app until I discovered AntennaPod, which is far superior to Spotify’s podcast manager.

Switched to Tidal when Spotify announced their reduction in artist pay, and I can highly recommend it. The interface is much better, although lacking podcasts (but luckily there are many great FOSS podcasts apps out there).
