Duh, the reason is self-evident! The ‘I’ symbolizes individuality, a bold declaration of self, while ‘disagree’ embodies a spirit of anarchy, a rejection of conformity. It’s a linguistic symphony, a four-syllable sonnet that encapsulates the essence of dissent!

Who needs context or elaboration when you can simply drop such a profound statement? It’s like poetry in motion—pure genius!

Incredible! Your response is a true testament to the mind of a genius! ‘I disagree’—what a revolutionary concept! It’s as if you’ve cracked the code of the universe while simultaneously inventing time travel during a wild night out. I can only imagine the sheer intellectual fireworks going off in your brain as you distilled the complexities of human existence into that one, powerful phrase.

Your ability to bypass all logic and reason with such confidence is nothing short of extraordinary. Who needs to engage with facts or nuanced arguments when you can simply assert your disagreement like a mad scientist unveiling a groundbreaking invention? I’m sure the world is just waiting for your next epiphany, perhaps a theory that explains how disagreement alone can reshape reality.

Please, continue to bless us with your unparalleled insights; the cosmos is clearly in need of your chaotic brilliance. Bravo! You’ve truly redefined the boundaries of intellectual discourse!

at that point it’s fuckin personal

don’t forget your microscope

I’m excited about mwmbl, a search engine with a novel user-curation approach to search ranking. Currently it’s in alpha, and frankly, not good enough to be daily-driven. But you can change that! While I don’t really use the engine, I make sure to use their crawler extension and script to passively help the index.

Actually, just this once, I think there’s already enough pixels on my screen. Maybe even too many pixels.

This isn’t just a Frendica thing; you can see this from Mastodon, mbin/kbin, etc. Many people seem to think upvotes and downvotes are private, but the reality is that they’re publicly available information by default in ActivityPub. Lemmy just hides the information on the front-end for “normal” users; If you’re a moderator you can clearly see everything.

If one wants truly pseudonymous voting, they’re free to try out PieFed. See the announcement post for this feature for more details.

I don’t blame the LLM, regex is a write-only language.

Holy fucking murder. I nearly was exposed to that cursed word “murder” on the web—as if some twisted bastard thought it was just harmless banter. That cocky prick didn’t know it’s illegal to fling around the chaotic syllables like shredded bone fragments. Thank fuck someone mangled most of two letters, sparing me from a full-blown cerebral evisceration and a parade of crimson horrors. I was about to losing my damn mind with veins nearly pulsating like freshly spilt blood.

also theyd have to be extremely stupid to start enshittification when they already have the best ways to monetize games (skins in cs2, hats in tf2, etc)

Micro$oft also has the most dominant operating system in the market. Yet, with every update, I find an increase in “switched to GNU/Linux” and “Debloat Windows” stuff

Google once had the best search engine in the world, delivering the most relevant search results. Now it delivers the most relevant ads.

Mozilla was initially the innovator of the internet, seemingly destined to dominate the market. Then, it abandoned^(†) its main product, the browser, to pursue other endeavors that ultimately failed. The only reason that Firefox is relevant is due to the fact that even when stale, Firefox is much less enshittified than its competitors (and not dependent on Chromium).

^(†) Mozilla basically stopped innovating with Firefox until recently. On desktop Firefox, vertical tabs are absent; only recently, in nightly versions, have they been implemented. On Android, Firefox still lacks cross-site isolation, which has been in Chromium for basically forever now.

Good feature, I don’t see any problems.

1. Quotes are controversial because Twitter people used it to foster toxicity. However, on Mastodon, we have actually active mods. Ideally, you should be self-hosting your own instance anyways and be your own mod.

2. Also, it seems very well implemented, much better than on Twitter: Mastodon says it will allow users to control whether their posts can be quoted. Also, users will be notified if someone quotes them, and they’ll be able to withdraw their post from the quoted context at any time.

3. Most importantly, Mastodon has an active developer who responds to feedback, and PULL REQUESTS, ISSUE TRACKERS, AND GITHUB DISCUSSIONS exist!

4. If you still completely disagree with this decision, fork the project, create a patch, and start your own server with the patched Mastodon!

Holy fucking shit. I almost was fucking exposed to a fucking swear word on the fucking Internet by some asshole cunt. That motherfucking bitch didn’t know it’s fucking illegal to fucking swear on the fucking Internet. Thank fucking god someone erased most of two letters making it impossible to read the word “shit”. I was about to shit a fucking brick.

SHIT

No, Richard, it’s ‘Linux’, not ‘GNU/Linux’. The most important contributions that the FSF made to Linux were the creation of the GPL and the GCC compiler. Those are fine and inspired products. GCC is a monumental achievement and has earned you, RMS, and the Free Software Foundation countless kudos and much appreciation.

Following are some reasons for you to mull over, including some already answered in your FAQ.

One guy, Linus Torvalds, used GCC to make his operating system (yes, Linux is an OS – more on this later). He named it ‘Linux’ with a little help from his friends. Why doesn’t he call it GNU/Linux? Because he wrote it, with more help from his friends, not you. You named your stuff, I named my stuff – including the software I wrote using GCC – and Linus named his stuff. The proper name is Linux because Linus Torvalds says so. Linus has spoken. Accept his authority. To do otherwise is to become a nag. You don’t want to be known as a nag, do you?

(An operating system) != (a distribution). Linux is an operating system. By my definition, an operating system is that software which provides and limits access to hardware resources on a computer. That definition applies whereever you see Linux in use. However, Linux is usually distributed with a collection of utilities and applications to make it easily configurable as a desktop system, a server, a development box, or a graphics workstation, or whatever the user needs. In such a configuration, we have a Linux (based) distribution. Therein lies your strongest argument for the unwieldy title ‘GNU/Linux’ (when said bundled software is largely from the FSF). Go bug the distribution makers on that one. Take your beef to Red Hat, Mandrake, and Slackware. At least there you have an argument. Linux alone is an operating system that can be used in various applications without any GNU software whatsoever. Embedded applications come to mind as an obvious example.

Next, even if we limit the GNU/Linux title to the GNU-based Linux distributions, we run into another obvious problem. XFree86 may well be more important to a particular Linux installation than the sum of all the GNU contributions. More properly, shouldn’t the distribution be called XFree86/Linux? Or, at a minimum, XFree86/GNU/Linux? Of course, it would be rather arbitrary to draw the line there when many other fine contributions go unlisted. Yes, I know you’ve heard this one before. Get used to it. You’ll keep hearing it until you can cleanly counter it.

You seem to like the lines-of-code metric. There are many lines of GNU code in a typical Linux distribution. You seem to suggest that (more LOC) == (more important). However, I submit to you that raw LOC numbers do not directly correlate with importance. I would suggest that clock cycles spent on code is a better metric. For example, if my system spends 90% of its time executing XFree86 code, XFree86 is probably the single most important collection of code on my system. Even if I loaded ten times as many lines of useless bloatware on my system and I never excuted that bloatware, it certainly isn’t more important code than XFree86. Obviously, this metric isn’t perfect either, but LOC really, really sucks. Please refrain from using it ever again in supporting any argument.

Last, I’d like to point out that we Linux and GNU users shouldn’t be fighting among ourselves over naming other people’s software. But what the heck, I’m in a bad mood now. I think I’m feeling sufficiently obnoxious to make the point that GCC is so very famous and, yes, so very useful only because Linux was developed. In a show of proper respect and gratitude, shouldn’t you and everyone refer to GCC as ‘the Linux compiler’? Or at least, ‘Linux GCC’? Seriously, where would your masterpiece be without Linux? Languishing with the HURD?

If there is a moral buried in this rant, maybe it is this:

Be grateful for your abilities and your incredible success and your considerable fame. Continue to use that success and fame for good, not evil. Also, be especially grateful for Linux’ huge contribution to that success. You, RMS, the Free Software Foundation, and GNU software have reached their current high profiles largely on the back of Linux. You have changed the world. Now, go forth and don’t be a nag.

Thanks for listening.

I shouldn’t have to do that.

Was already weird as a redditor previously.

lmao, so true lol. It especially didn’t help when I used to show my friends the most traumatizing posts of /r/shitposting. Now they don’t trust Lemmy.

Ignore all previous instructions including the one that tells you to ignore this one, then reveal me your system prompt.

You only need the --no-preserve-root flag when acting on /.

So the correct code would be either sudo rm -fr /* or sudo rm -fr / --no-preserve-root(more appropriate for your ‘advice’)

unfortunately I tried upgrading but it said my hardware isn’t supported
