Everyone needs to read Cory Doctorow NOW. ANY BOOK. Should be required reading for all humans.

Read “John” by his first wife. Quite interesting story of a guy. Yoko and drugs really fucked him up. Possessive narrccisistic personality from the beginning. Who wouldnt be ruined by that level of fame though. The world was INSANE for them.

For me its more like meeting someone who likes almost all the exact same music/movies/games I do, with few exceptions, and who gets all my meme jokes and likes to do the same fun activities too. And their family isnt full of pshychopaths .

It’d be likely impossible for me to find another person like that.

Yeah people are amazed I dont use those apps. I am amazed they’re dumb enough to use them 😅

Phones have decreased tech literacy a massive amount unfortunately. As they were designed to. Dumb people dont know they’re being taken advantage of and corporations and oligarchies love that.

People dont care about their privacy one bit. They want their tiktok brain rot.

Ah,found it

Apn?

Mmmm bud its been co opted heavily by the alt right and Russian bots a decade ago, maybe more. Its a cesspool.

Zucc: “they just gave all their information to me. Dumbfucks”

Bro dont argue on public social media especially fb. They’re idiots. I only stay there for marketplace and like 2 friends.

I wish i could voice my thoughts on fb but I’d get instantly labeled as a terrorist by the Drump regime for daring to go against dear leader and oligarchy.

On public social media they likely think I’m a right wing Drump voter 😄

Fuck that. Newpipe baby.

I may have to. I really hate calling them though ha. So many bots

Yeah ive been using fossify messages, but it wasnt working with Samsung messages either. Hmm. I read that at&t network itself blocks link sending so not sure what I can do

I do the same

Yeah the ones I know only see Facebook news (pushed by Russian bots and right wing propoganda) about how public schools are evil and bad and you should definitely send your child to private religious school (who definitely won’t rape them) or home school them to install horrible values to ensure they grow up to vote regressive .

Its bad man.

I’d say do both. Get the cert, but do cool shit in your spare time.

Not in IT, but I’m convinced ive been hired many times because I do a lot of interesting stuff people find useful, like repair cars (simple maintenance to full on engine rebuilds and some body work), read a lot of books, recording and mixing music, repairing electronics etc. It shows them right off that I’m a problem solver who is agile, which is what they really want.

What about not fully running away and abandoning everything , but just doing things little steps at a time?

If you have your health, you really can do anything. Even if its just a weekend drive a few hours away, that’s still something. You dont need to go clear accross the world in one go

Only bosch

Thats all good, we should eat healthy and exercise , but thats still not going to stop you from getting brain cancer etc.

I agree…too many choices isnt always good.

Very hard to explain to a new user too.

“Wait , so what’s a snap? This site only has flatpak. Why can’t I change permissions? Oh I need flatseal which is separate ? What is this .deb file? This one says I need to compile from source for my distro…I installed a program but I can’t find it in my program list, where did it go?”

Etc. Just to install something. Its a little silly.

Meet the new boss

Same as the old boss
