I mean I do get the page

But I don’t lose some video I may never find again

I solely open YouTube videos in new tabs can’t relate.

Actions speak louder than words tbh

He has some sus takes about some things but as far as healthcare and connecting corporate greed to violence against society (that must be fought violently) he’s 100% right.

I don’t think it’s productive to diminish what he did with some tech-bro tweets when he’d barely became an adult. Tweets don’t mean shit.

okay lemme grab my coat

And Facebook, X, Google apps, etc are what exactly?

They’re just as bad or worse on privacy. People throw around that “Chinese” label like it’s supposed to make it worse, somehow. Seems a bit racist to me. At least “the Chinese” aren’t feeding that data to government entities that have actual power over me.

I have no problem with TikTok, their owners, or the company beyond my usual concerns with corporate platforms. They’re as bad (maybe even a little less) as American corporate media.

I just stay away from it because I don’t think short form doom scrolling videos would be good for my productivity or attention span

Shit’s confidently wrong way too often. You wouldn’t even realize the bullshit as you read it.

And airbags are cool

Honestly no problem, if they’re tech literate enough to have gotten that far it’ll probably be okay

Seriously, are there really pro-NK supporters in SK?

I’m definitely not saying it’s a common thing at all but US and western media really, super play up the image of the DPRK and the tension on the peninsula.

And also see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_Party_(South_Korea,_2017)

They ran Kim Jae-Yeon for president. She once said:

On 4 June 2012 during an interview with KBS, the emcee asked her to confirm her view towards North Korea. She answered, “If a person does not want to recognise North Korean regime, it means that he/she wants a war with them”. When the emcee also asked about what if North Korea attacks the South, she replied, “Still, we should not fight back.”

She received 37 thousand votes. Not a lot, but they do exist.

Any more left than them tend to get banned under “National Security” laws.

The number of breaking changes has really gone down. I don’t think I’ve touched the config in a year. I don’t have it auto update though, just in case.

I’ve had to do very little work on Immich in the 2(?) years I’ve hosted it.

English speaking majority monolingual countries who don’t travel much (US, UK, etc.)

Generally means you’re an immigrant, and not the “good” kind. Unless you otherwise seem wealthy in which case you’re “worldly” or whatever. Also depends on the language. French, German, Swedish or something would be overall seen more positively - Spanish, Chinese, Portuguese more negative.

Firefox. Perfect? No. But we gotta fight the Chrome monopoly. And most (all, I’m pretty sure) other browsers for Android are Chromium based. Using one of those still hands Google control of the web.

I think you’ve won, great work!

God I wish I had symmetrical upload. Gigabit down and like, 125mbps up.

Not so much for this but I self host stuff like my photos and I notice it’s slower when scrolling my photos outside the house. And using my personal VPN, makes my download limited to my upload speed.

My most uploaded file is a copy of Shrek 2 with Latin American Spanish dub, it took me over a month to download. I swear to God the only one seeding it was someone who would just open their client, download whatever they were looking for, then shut it off. It’s the only copy of that dub I could find in decent quality. Now I’m at ~50 ratio for that file.

If you can only find 0 seed torrents just chuck it in your client anyway, I’ve had several actually complete.

That’s really not always true in the US.
