Is there no other way to purge the software? Doesn't Windows offer any alternate means to purge software, apart from wiping the drive clean?
This is so beautiful!
Swear to fucking god, if mine were this beautiful, I just won't get any work done!
The only real 'complaint' I have is that you gotta scroll all the way to the bottom of the page to get to the comment box.
Aaron Swartz probably turning in his grave.
u/spez is a terrorist.
r/wallstreetbets is probably preparing to short Reddit once they IPO 😂
There's a general lack of content here - and Ernest has been doing an extremely courageous job of keeping the lights on.
I guess it's up to us now to start creating content, and improving this site.
A silver lining, perhaps, is that kbin.social works extremely well on Firefox for Android. I've been browsing kbin.social since yesterday afternoon, and a significant portion of it has been on my android.
While there's not much content here for now, and sure, things may look a bit tedious, I'd rather this than Reddit's absolutely pathetic video player.
I do feel sad, though. I honestly thought Reddit would be the one to stick. Perhaps not. Oh well.
I suspect that if it had an SSD it would have gone faster.
My experiment was with an SSD. With a hard drive, it took close to an entire day.
Does it take a lot less time these days? The 2014 Mac Mini is the first and (so far) the only Apple device I've owned. The OS installation and updates take close to an hour on this one.
@hybridhavoc Please, for the sake of your mental health, get an SSD. A few months ago, I replaced the HDD on an old Mac Mini and paid only $15 for a 256GB SSD. The mf runs like it's new.
A logical extension of your post really makes you think just how much of social media post-2007 was set up on fundamentally unsustainable business models. Engagement is not a good business model! Making investors pay for users was always a bad choice and sooner or later, investors were going to ask for their money back!
It will be interesting to see how social media changes post-2023. With Meta almost vestigial (except Instagram and marketplace), Twitter and Twitch absolutely clowning away their positions, what's next? Jeff Bezos and/or Daddy Sundar reinvesting in social media?
I highly recommend watching Louis Rossmann's video on Reddit - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqL-G3GFqRU&t=728s
One step at a time. One breath at a time. The summit draws closer.
