I’ve used Zorin for a time, it is really good

I would not put it like that, I’m not that arrogant. Lemmy is, in its majority, left leaning, so of course people will disagree with me, but that’s not to say “reality doesn’t matter”.

I’m really surprised that my post was not down voted to nothingness

I’ll look into it further tomorrow. If I find out that I’m wrong, I’ll edit my comment saying so.

who effectively want to tear down as much government as possible, […]. It’s the ideology of an extraordinarily unregulated market – a true “free market”

I agree with that.

which is a monopolistic and wildly unethical disaster waiting to happen.

I obviously don’t agree with that. Monopolies depend on the government to exist. I will not elaborate further because I’m not feeling like arguing with strangers on the internet today

who view “your freedom ends at my face” as an insult

I really don’t know what that means

Libertarian is not right-wing (at least as what right-wing and libertarian means here, maybe it is not the same in the US?)

The right is conservative. It is religion based, against the liberation of drugs, usually not concerned with LGBT or women rights. Libertarianism is none of this, since it most concerned with individual freedom

Brazilian here. This a controversial topic, so take what I say as an opinion.

Although Musk is a man child and a scumbag, he is right on this. He is not refusing to comply with local laws, he is refusing to comply with illegal, monocratic decisions from the supreme court.

It is not news that the supreme court had given themselves dictator-like powers. In this case, there is no law that mandates that a social network has to have legal representatives in the country, and there is no law that a social network has to censor specific person, unless they are commiting a crime, which of course require a investigation and the due legal process, all steps that the supreme court had ignored. Moreover, the supreme court is not persecution, so they can’t just make this decision without being summoned.

They’ve been doing that for a while now, in the name of fighting “anti-democratic acts”, which is just a faceless ghost. This is, again, based on no law whatsoever, so the supreme court had taken for themselves persecution and legislative powers, gravely hurting the separation of powers.

Disclaimer: I’m not right leaning, but I’m as libertarian as one can be

I run ulit on every new terminal. I tried doing it with neofetch at first, but it added too much startup time, that’s how I discovered fastfetch

this art is annoying to look at

I don’t know, I find it to be kind of hot

Totally agree. The content may be good, but title and thumbnail are marketing only. A silly thumbnail doesn’t make the content worse, so nothing wrong in the creator trying to use it as a way to increase their reach

“I an Lithuanian”

I can’t read fsck as anything other than “fs check”

What’s the deal? I’m OOTL

I think people here are misunderstanding reality evaluation with judgement of value.

Every time you sign up for something without understanding what it is exactly, they are setting themselves up for failure. This doesn’t mean that the company is right, or what they are doing is fair and just. Microsoft is clearly morally dubious, but they did technically get you agreement with it. The one who signed up is wrong, not in valuing privacy, but in expecting, even for a single moment, that a corporation would have their best interest in mind. They only have revenue growth in mind, and that’s bu the very nature of how their business is organized.

That’s why zero trust systems are important, and FOSS is a way of getting it. Being open source allows for anyone with enough technical knowledge to audit every part of the system, so you don’t need to trust a businessman

Your point of view makes sense. In my opinion though, when you agree without reading the terms, you’re basically saying “you’re allowed to do whatever you want”

You are consenting, not with this or that, but with anything regarding that product, probably because you trust the company, or you don’t care enough

I know nothing about the topic, but I like funny images

Users explicitly and willingly click on “I agree” to the Terms and Conditions. It might be undesirable, but it is consented

To be fair, the access is authorized

Yes, customizing as they want

(this is me)

I always read -fr as “for real” when someone writes rm -fr instead of rm -rf

rm -fr -fr
