Linux May Be the Best Way to Avoid the AI Nightmare
  • I’d recommend checking out Linux Mint with the “cinnamon” desktop.

    Installing hardware drivers and software is a breeze. It comes with a software manager for easily adding new programs.

    Screenshot included for convenience:

  • Fuck ads at the gas pump
  • Time to get an EV you can charge at home 😎

    Think of this fact the next time people list off all the “downsides” of owning an EV… like never going to the gas station.

  • Microsoft is once again injecting pop-up ads into Google Chrome on Windows in a bid to get people to switch to Bing
  • laughs in Linux desktop

    Why do people continue to put up with this? I don’t get any ads or bloatware like “Paint 3D” or “X Box” on Linux Mint. And Linux desktops are so easy to use now! Blows my mind that people tolerate these antics from Microsoft.

  • What's a good phone now that doesn't force ads on me?
  • Sure, makes sense. But the title was “what’s a good phone that doesn’t force ads on me.” None of the things you listed were mentioned in the post. I stand by my answer 😎. Come, join us in the land of good-user-interface.

  • Okay hear me out. What if we all chipped in 5 bucks to ? How many people would it take to fund it well enough so they don’t have to do layoffs? I get it, the FOSS community wants the “F” part
  • Fun fact: non-profits are required to report the incomes of their highest paid employees on IRS form 990. In 2022, Mark Surman was paid $344,483. This is well below executive pay in Silicon Valley, and on par with normal software engineer pay in the same area according to GlassDoor.

    Sure, some executives are overpaid, but this is very much not the case here.

    It’s worth it to find out before spewing hate and bias.

  • Tesla recalls 2.2 million cars — nearly all of its vehicles sold in the U.S. — over warning light issue
  • Elon Musk clearly intended for the warning lights on Teslas worldwide to not operate according to the RULES. He is clearly a scoundrel, and NTSHA should GET HIM. Why do billionaires even control our car’s turn signals?! Surely there is some kind of review process for … like … selling cars!

  • Tesla recalls 2.2 million cars — nearly all of its vehicles sold in the U.S. — over warning light issue
  • I realize most of you, dear Lemmings, are distraught in fear over this news. Fear not! “Tesla is fixing the vehicles by releasing a free, over-the-air software update.”

    It’s almost like this “news article” was deliberately trying to mislead you to gain ad revenue! Fortunately for you, I have dispelled the misinformation!
