Alphebetizing by the “The” should be a criminal act.
Looking at you, Google Play Library.
If I do not have or cannot easily get root access to a computer, I don’t really own it.
12 hour time is an inferior standard, and we should be on 24 hour time so developers don’t ever default to 12 hour time. Way too many instances of mission critical things getting swapped on am/pm by mistake. That is never a problem with 24h time.
You should have to get a special license to drive something as big as a modern pickup truck.
And you should have to have a justifiable reason to buy and own one.
And there should be restrictions on where they can be driven.
Basically most people shouldn’t have pickup trucks.
I would go further. Most cars don’t belong in places where people live. They injure and kill people on the regular, the noise pollution causes mental and physical health problems, the light pollution disrupts sleep, the particulate pollution causes cardiovascular disease and dementia, as well as damaging ecosystems, driving adds to obesity and issues related to a sedentary lifestyle, the physical space they take leads to sprawl and ecosystem destruction, and the sprawl also bankrupts cities and towns. As well, driving in traffic just plain sucks as an activity, and makes people angry and miserable.
Summer is a crappy season, fall is superior.
- ISO 8601 (e.g., 2025-05-23) are the only correct date formats.
- We should stop using time zones and daylight saving.
Stop using timezones? So every day would actually be two weekdays because at some random point in time it would switch date during the day. Let’s meet next Monday wouldn’t even specify a single day anymore in most countries. And there is no real benefit to stop using timezones, just downsides. Yes you’d know which time it is anywhere but you still wouldn’t know of they are awake or not and have to either look it up or remember it - the same you have to do now.
Dampening is making things wet. Damping is reducing oscillations in something.
Every time I hear or read people using them interchangeably is infuriating.
Owning a pug is animal cruelty
EDIT: adding bulldogs and other snub-nosed pets that wouldn’t exist without selective breeding by humans.
Even if it’s a rescue? Maybe breeding pugs (without trying to reverse the damage done to them) is pretty shitty, but I could see rescuing one is fine. I mean, what’s the other option, killing them all?
Fair, but it still fuels the market. Somebody rescues one. Somebody else sees it and wants one but can’t find a rescue or doesn’t want a rescue, and goes to a breeder.
There needs to be a mandatory parenting training course if you’re expecting a child.
Religion needs to be taken out of the government completely
You should use your blinker when turning into a parking space
- Laptops should be thick and durable with good keyboards (like old Thinkpads)
- MacOS isn’t as bad as people here say, its still a Unix-based OS and that alone makes it superior to Windows
- Arch Linux is severely overrated
- Debian Linux is extremely underrated
- Alpine Linux is great on low end laptops
- Fedora Linux is the best distro for newcomers
- Rust belongs in the Linux kernel
- GPL > MIT/BSD
- Tiling > stacked
- AI sucks
Misuse of their there and they’re.
Han Solo shot first. Screw any of the remakes or special editions he was a pirate and was just protecting himself from an even more dangerous pirate.
People on Lemmy aren’t “normal” people and shouldn’t use their personal views as the norm.
but we’re on Lemmy 🤔
Probably shouldn’t assume that guy’s personal view is the norm.
Well now I’m just confused.
- Modern flip phones (e.g. Samsung Fold) are stupid and gimmicky industrial design failures.
- Humans are not good by nature. They are taught to be good but even babies cry and get angry without anyone teaching them.
- The Cat in The Hat movie with Mike Myers was not as bad as critics claim and actually had good undertones patched together with modern humor that is more profound in recent times than when it was originally released. It was actually ahead of its time.
- Apple/MacOS isn’t actually a better platform and is only designed to give the impression that it is simpler even though people still have to learn how to use it.
- Adult services should be legal in all countries and the workers involved should get paid with benefits/protections just like everybody else. This is assuming capitalism cannot be removed from the picture.
- VTubers shouldn’t be showing their actual bodies. It defeats the purpose of using the moniker in the first place.
- Education should be free without any debt involved. There is legitimately no good reason why education and knowledge should be pay-walled.
- Euthanasia should be legal where the person no longer wishes to subject themselves to failing health is granted control over their body. Forcing such people to keep living is selfish and pertains cruel and unusual.
- Hollywood should not be idolized and is actually part of the problem with things being f’d up rn. There is no good reason why actors or any kind of artist should be making all that money while the rest of society gets by with the scraps we toss around while the rich get richer. The same goes for any kind of celebrity, really. I don’t even leave out sports people in this.
This took me twice as long to finish because every other point I ended up with something political. So this is pretty much the least triggering or offensive I can make my list. Good grief.
