Did they include AI slop, dogshit mobile game ports, low effort games, and the like in the dataset? If so, I'm not surprised.

I guess I'm a young woman now, if we go by the art of Metal Bringer.

The more I think about it the less I see them as victims, and more as irresponsible with important data.

Not surprising at all.

It's hard to feel sorry for these non profits even if it the data loss is a tragedy. It's been years of people screaming that this kind of shit could happen. That not accepting the pain of early adoption of open source software would lead to the extreme pain of being locked out arbitrarily.

That sounds like most of the terrible private companies are just companies that want to go public.

It's actually a bit infuriating after a decade of tech savvy people screaming that any data given to these corporations was eventually going to be used for something they wouldn't like. This isn't some unforseen consequence.

SteamOS is not meant to be used on normal desktop/laptops. You're making things harder for yourself.

I think it's a "country/region capital" thing. The more central a city is to the management of an area, the more insufferable the people it produces are.

In my experience even one of the platforms with moronic developers eventually fixed their Firefox support. I dunno if the surge in Linux users had anything to do with it or not, or if it was because I would browser there, make my payments fail then switch to the Falkon browser every single time.

No se que tanta actividad hay en esta comunidad, pero termine aquí porque reddit cada vez se pone peor entre los bots que a veces ni escriben en español en las comunidades hispanas, las decisiones horribles como autotraducir, y todas las trabas que ponen para poder mirar el contenido sin estorbos.

Ya había abandonado casi todas las otras redes (la gran excepción es youtube) y solo uso Pleroma/Sharkey ocasionalmente, así que empezar a contribuir con un poco de contenido acá me pareció lo mas correcto.

This only applies when you are talking about comparable things (E.g. two pieces of for-profit software that do the same thing). If they don't seem to be the same thing, then you actually have to explain how would it happen if you want to be taken seriously.

Specially when we have examples of companies trying to tighten control over GPL software immediately getting forked and having to backtrack

IIRC Calc, which is one of the alternatives that is closest to parity still needs a significant investment of time and resources to be on par with pre-Copilot Excel when it comes to performance and functionality.

Yes, Representative Republics are designed to be that way, which is why they won't solve their inherent systemic issues unless you manage to get a candidate in that replaces the whole thing with either a modernized Democracy (as in people have power instead of representatives) or rips out the least democratic aspects out of the system and replaces them with something more democratic.

The actually funny part is that they can't. Most of the bloatware is not available on Linux because it doesn't support it.

Lamentablemente no sorprende a nadie que quiera sacar protecciones útiles mientras que deja leyes basura en pie o sin modificación.

Having deleted my account recently I'm not so sure anymore. Before I left, a lot of comments lacked coherence, and many were in the wrong language. I think the bots are finally outnumbering the real users for specific communities.

¿Tenés ejemplos de China/Venezuela/Rusia interfiriendo en negocios de PRIVADOS en Argentina para que no le compren a Empresas de EEUU/Europa para que les paguemos un precio mas alto a ellos? ¿O estas mezclando cosas que no tienen nada ver con empezar a dictarle a los de acá con quien pueden o no hacer negocios?

Todo bien con considerar malos a los gobiernos anteriores, pero no distinguir entre un gobierno meramente mediocre, uno malo y uno pésimo, solo le sirve al que quiere que pongas en el poder a uno pésimo.

That's a stereotype, and complete misinformation.

Most germans in Argentina were Volga germans, regular Germans, Jewish Germans and antinazi Germans who arrived in different waves before WW2. The nazis who fled to Argentina are estimated to be 5,000 vs 1.6 million who moved there between 1919 and 1932. Argentina was chosen so a tiny number could hide among a large preexisting population of the same ethnicity, they are not the origin of that large number.

It's the same story with Italians: 2 million arrived between 1880 and 1920, before WW2. When fascism arose in Italy, immigration slowed down to a trickle. After the war only 380,000 arrived, a smaller number than the original wave and their descendants.

What does being from Argentina have to do with being a fascist?
