You mean “boycott all privative culture and start learning how to not depend on entertainment to have a fulfilling life” right?

We should be boycotting all art and entertainment from Big Media in its entirety, but nobody is willing to do so

You all trying to tell me that, all along, we didn’t really need to reduce the birth rates and let the natural selection cull all those innocent people?

And that’s why I distrust anything under a non-commercial CC license. Besides of the fact that it’s as good as proprietary for projects like Wikipedia, there’s also the unfortunate fact that the people (and companies) that choose non-commercial licensing over copyleft are more likely than not to pull the rug down the line.

Any plans to start saving up to move elsewhere, by the way?

It might be my inner prescriptivist at work, but while I understand the need for a singular they, I absolutely loathe it’s accompanied with a singular are. If the language is being reformed, why not take a page out of AAVE and start using “they’s” and “you’s”?

Since engaging in society means indirectly endorsing all of its evils, and even interacting with questionable people is functionally equivalent to platforming them, the only ethical thing to do is to become a self-sufficient hermit. Problem is, there aren’t enough terrains on this planet to allot one fully decked farm for each inhabitant…

To be fair, he’s got a day job as an IT architect in an university, so I think he’s set in regards to finances. Codevelopers on the other hand, those would come handy - especially for knowledge transfer

My relatively obscure and hopeless choice is Golden Sun 4

“Could you please not use the phone? Gotta dial up to connect to the BBS”

scientists can now download the software code and use the artificial intelligence (AI) tool for non-commercial applications

(emphasis mine)

Which means that this is an open core code, not open source proper due to the non-commercial restriction, unfortunately.

Another potential technology they could use would be Matrix, so that servers can send commands to each other in real time. It’s better suited for this kind of interactive services than ActivityPub is. Or you could also try XMPP with extensions.

Time to /r/insert plenty of /r/references to /r/unrelated /r/subreddits just in case

At long last, some theming support for Adwaita! I really missed being able to change colors, at the very least

Many local governments have lists of local businesses to support, you could try finding your city’s municipality’s website and see if there’s such a list.

@bilbobaggins The good part: my self-hosted VaultWarden supports passkeys, so I’ve added them to everything I can. The bad part: Android does not support third-party passkeys on Android 13 and lower, and guess whose phone is stuck with 13 being the latest official release for his smartphone - that means that the websites that completely substitute the password with a passkey, such as PlayStation and Microsoft, are currently off-limits for me because I’ll end up locked outside.

@downpunxx In his defense, the issue is not with Judaism but with the current government of Israel. There are plenty of people jumping at the chance of muddying the waters and conjoin both groups as inseparable.

@TehBamski Most entertainment is produced in abusive environments, promotes positively evil people to become famous, and twists the legal system through in such a way that it enables surveillance and erodes ownership rights. But barely anyone is willing to boycott it.

@zachimusprime44 RelaxAlax and ProJared. Sure, they both came with rather flimsy reasons to state that the allegations against them were apparently false, but I didn’t buy them.
