I’m tempted to assume you’re a Labour equivalent of a blue MAGA, but I will assume you’re actually confused so I will clarify.

Several years ago, many postmasters were charged with criminal charges for stealing money that never existed, there was a bug in the Fujitsu software. Badenoch maintains to this day as far as I am aware that the postmasters DID steal the money and perfectly conspired to frame Fujitsu. Perhaps you are unaware of this incident or her position on it.

I’m not debating the definition of neoliberalism with someone who doesn’t characterize a pro-privitization “centrist” who extirpated all the labor advocates out of Labour as neoliberal and then goes all patronizing in a frankly asinine way, sorry.

I am also not debating if it is possible for one of the two major UK parties to regain power within a decade while Starmer’s Labour is already underwater in polls. You’re a VERY condescending person, you might want to work on that if you actually want people to engage with you.

Wow, a jackass I need to block on .world. SHOCKER!

I love her Fujitsu postal bug truther stance. It’s so wonderfully unhinged! Given how Starmer’s neolib Labour has decided they want to be the Truss/Sunak Tories on policy, she has a non-0 chance of becoming PM this decade!

God, that guy is the biggest asshole on the planet. The fact that he is a mod is such an indictment of Lemmy.world… I actually suspect they’re not even human, but a K-Hive bot from the 2020 primary they plugged ChatGPT into and it went mad.

No sweeter sound than “Hello, this is Linus Torvalds and I pronounce ‘Linux’, Linux” although in 90’s Linux’s defense, sound on 90’s Windows was also a zoo. At least once it was working on RedHat, it worked. Same box with windows 95, every boot you’d fear the sound driver was magically broken again necessitating a full wipe and reinstall…

It’s possible that it’s inferred off the digital footprint of you pirating the content, also. People freak out a lot about being listened to, but I’d argue that’s an inefficient spying mechanism they probably don’t lean heavily on if they can avoid it. We’re all living on platforms that are knowably spying on everything you click on or read or do online and feeding that into giant AI models with everything about you. Like just by watching a pirated video on a Google TV device, Google’s hashing that and phoning that data home, possibly even matching that to the specific file, and adding that to an ad profile.

Anything I need to actually write code on, Gnome, because I’m addicted to mac-style gesture controls, but hate the holier than thou design philosophy Jony Ive bullshit; anything casual, KDE; but I am planning to try out Cosmic on something soon

Don’t forget those lucky duckies deemed unworthy of even having the opportunity to compete in our meritocratic job market!

💯😭💯

If you move to the I-95 corridor NY or north you don’t need to deal with this. All the classic rock stations play Dirty Deeds and 3 other AC/DC songs and Teenage Wasteland on a loop, and have for 20+ years.

I’ve seen them work on Freetube in the past although idk how, and maybe they no longer do

I hear ya

Uh… Okay… How is saying it’s fair for Hezbollah to do the same to Israelis with the evacuation BS “Zionist?”

I mean, if you can just command citizens of other countries to evacuate their homes so you can blow them up… What’s good for the goose is good for the gander…

“If we must burn Democracy to the ground on a pyre of human flesh to save it, so be it!”

You are gonna get sooooo down voted for this. The Ukraine contingent on here cares WAY more about squashing realistic critique than hundreds of thousands of dead Ukrainians.

The party not allowing debates and threatening everyone to stay out so only an ice cream millionaire who was leaving congress anyway did a quixotic “run” in an attempt to hide how bad Biden had gotten is not a real primary. Just because you don’t grasp verbal irony isn’t everyone else’s fault.

Israel is also behind Sudan via their Sunni vassal states as part of that insane regional domination scheme Netanyahu bragged about at the UN. They are two fronts in the same genocidal war, and we SHOULD be talking about both, and bringing war crime charges for both.

How did nobody notice Biden’s brain no longer works if there was this robust primary process you describe and we all just missed it?

I had my mom on Ubuntu for most of the 2010’s, and then the macbook it was on had catastrophic hard drive failure around the pandemic, but then I was like, you don’t work anymore, why exactly do you NEED a computer to begin with? So now she literally doesn’t have a computer and just lives mobile/tablet OS life, which in a nonprofessional context seems perfectly serviceable these days.
