orr, maybe it is about mending the world. but the little part that’s yours.

it's not about mending the world. it's about finding pleasure in living out what's right. it's embodying of a value, a moral principle.

the way you express it says that the breadth of the effect of your choices is an essential parameter in considering your processes. I dislike this position due to its administrative, almost corporate undertone; I do understand it and ascribe to it myself in administrative matters, but not the personal.

but look at it this way: you won't change much by feeding homeless animals or birds, or by planting a couple of trees, but it may still bring great pleasure to do it. one way that i see it differ from permacomputing is that the feedback / perception of its effect is more immediate; or that permacomputing is following a more abstract, mediated value. but both are about finding some joy and meaning in doing something purely out of care. if not pleasure, it at least gives a little framework, a heuristic when making decisions.

to introduce a perspective and a community to someone who might want to be informed about it or participate.

"Writing software doesn't require GitHub". Well, if they do not need whatever is specific to github and claim that someone who sorely lacks these features has a mental problem...

libraries, not processes.

ok, you do, doesn’t mean that the difference others make of it are necessarily wrong, as the tone of your first comment suggested.

120% agree. it is so, so tasteless

so not only does it record what you say, not only does it snapshot what you watch, but it also snapshots what you do and how you look!

i’m on airpods pro 3, and it’s far from producing noise-cancellation so powerful as to require such measures. perhaps if I’m listening to heavy music at ear-damaging levels. maybe my hearing is too sensitive.

hehe, belittle (to make smaller)

why not make it opt-in?

and I wonder if this opt-out applies to data we stored under your umbrella before having opted-out.

different ui. you can pull in different commits of channels (packages repos) and take packages from them. but it’s opt-in, no lock-file snapshots.

in this case: a distribution with hardened security for military purposes. for example, completely disabled location services, encrypted communications only, etc. + forbid use of unapproved mobile devices while on a sensitive mission.

one more reason for open, adaptible, and secure mobile operating systems.

is there a reason to downvote this?

read somewhere that maybe they’re preparing for OLED screens

closed source

remap the keys?

there is also a figure of speech used soo often, called metonymy.

what if ads were displayed only on request? “hi, ad page, I need some shoes, let’s go!”

zig can fix everything

what is more damaging, a hammer, a sword, or poison?

i hope i don’t have to go out of my way to explain the analogy.

what the heck heck

i think you have a very idealised view of social media. have you been to a classroom recently?

it’s also meaningfully different in structure from tv. tv was 7-10 min of content and a couple of ads in between. and you grew annoyed by the ads. only toddlers were captivated. now most content is designed like ads were. and now they grow annoyed when outside it. and toddlers and older people are captivated.

yea, url substring selection is shit.

ah ok, yes, i see. did not notice the nuance in the parent.

yes, this feature seems to be extend-only.

um, you do the same on ios.

touch the keyboard area with another finger :)

you can still make selections using the keyboard without 3d touch.
