@Waldbrand It's impressive that you even reached Berlin with that spelling.

@jmcs I think that's oversimplifying the problem, people have been accepting change forever. A big problem now is that a lot of young men feel left behind as things changed, and as a result they are lonely, lost, and looking for a new "role" to play.The problem is that the only people (at least that are well known enough to make an impact) addressing those feelings are people like Andrew Tate, and Jordan Peterson.We need some less toxic male influencers.

@ixs In that case, let's all enjoy the next fascist chapter in our history.Sure, that must be a bit hyperbolic, but these guys are voting for fascists, because the fascists are making time for that shit.

Does anybody else ever think how messed up it is that unless you go out of your way (or live in a very rural area), you are bombarded with ads for the entire time you are awake.- Ads on your phone- Ads on your TV- Ads on every place they can buy outside- Ads on almost every websiteIt is honestly exhausting, and I wonder what a world with heavily limited ads would look like.Incidentally, the lack of ads is one of the very nice things about self hosting things, and being on fedi.

Just to make it clear:Yes, I am aware of, and use, adblockers, piracy, and other ways of evading ads. These are exactly the things I was talking about when I was talking about "going out of your way".But that shouldn't be needed. We shouldn't be wasting so many resources on creating and ignoring ads. Capitalism was supposed to be efficient, they said!

#introduction:As we've gotten a bunch of new members recently, and I just moved to another instance, I might as well do a new one of these.I'm a professional computer whisperer that recently co-founded ponc.tech where we're helping companies solve their problems with ethical solutions, in other words, products we wouldn't mind being users of ourselves.For the rest, I dabble in #Mixology, I'm #Pansexual and/or #Bisexual, and #Poly.

Oh, I also will post mostly in English, but I speak fluent Dutch, and passable German as well.

@aral Powerline is still pretty slow then? I went to the trouble of installing ethernet to the router and I get a full gbit, so around 100MiB/s.

Seems the bigots and trolls are attacking me. Haven't seen this much homophobia in a very long time. But it was just so stereotypical that it's just comical. All banned and reported of course.

Maybe my memory is a bit fuzzy, but I don't remember as many "injury to democracy" outcries when his mob tried to stage a coup on Jan 6th...#USPol #Trump

Hey fellow #Linux users, despite the #CrowdStrike problem only affecting #Windows, this is not a windows problem.This is an "automatic update that got forced onto everyone with insufficient testing while also having way too many permissions" problem. If you think big corps wouldn't run something similar on Linux, I have a an NFT of a bridge to sell you.

Why do we still accept super loud motorcycles in our cities? Every time one drives by, I'm deafened and can't hear myself think. It's super antisocial and there is no use for those things to be that insanely loud.

Hot take: public transit should not be run "for profit". The profit comes from everybody getting to their destination quickly, efficiently, and predictably.

And if #neoliberal politicians keep insisting on transit companies being run for-profit, I propose that roads, and highways will also be run for-profit.And if they don't want that, I want people to explain why there's such a double standard for those two. (I already know why, but I'd like to see them try explain it without sounding like an arse)

@aiju I don't know... I live in a different country with a different language than I grew up with, and I picked up a second language just from reading subtitles when I was 3, while acquiring this other language while super immersed for over 8 years is a lot harder.That said, I don't think you can't learn stuff as an adult, but I do think it's easier for kids.

@futurebird I tend to go for happy music, but also to motivate me to fix the root of the unhappiness.

@futurebird I love the look, but I'm too used to having a digital digits display. And honestly, even if I could get over that, I'd want the hours to be numbered 1-24, not two times 1-12. I really dislike AM/PM notation, and this design exacerbates my problems with it.

@futurebird Yeah, or it would automatically detect it from your locale/user setting.
