  • My reaction to the news was to follow uBlock Origin discussions more closely so I can always have the latest workarounds pasted into my custom filters. $0 /mo to one of the wealthiest monopolies in tech? Easy decision.

  • Even Linux users can get a Microsoft Surface-alike now - [Not for me, but glad there's movement in the space]
  • I've been using a Surface with Linux installed for about a year now, works pretty great with the custom Surface Linux kernel but there's a few annoying problems with ghost touch that I've never been able to solve. I don't replace devices until the one I have is absolutely in the pits so I hope this is still around as an option when that happens.

  • The other 10% are Maoists highly critical of the post-Deng era. I don't fully agree with them but I do respect their position.

  • The black book of communism is one of the most hokey and widely debunked pieces of sloppy anticommunist propaganda ever made. You would know this if you had ever interrogated your sources even a minuscule amount.

  • lmao you're a black book guy? To think I felt bad and deleted my comment.

    Landlords, kulaks, Nazis collaborators etc are not ethnic groups, they are groups of people who have explicitly chosen to do something that is incredibly harmful to others, often thousands or millions of others. Saying that they deserve to die is no different than saying that someone who commits a murder does, it's just that our society has conditioned you into thinking that the terrible things wrought by capitalists are "normal".

  • This is why the international symbol for getting someone who actually deserves is it the-doohickey

  • You're right but you should watch out I posted a similar sentiment in this thread and people got all weird about it.

  • the atrocities my own people suffered at the hands of the soviet union during the previous century

    Your kulak great grandparents deserved it.

  • Windows 11 vs Linux supported HW
  • I tend to agree, but more because I think that Linux needs a killer feature to convince people to switch and privacy aint it for most people.

  • Windows 11 vs Linux supported HW
  • Just the other day I was posting complaining about a thing I was trying to do that should have been simple but Linux made really hard for some reason. Still prefer it to Windows tbh.

  • Android vs IOS
  • I mean, what's Xi Jinping gonna do with your data? If you're not a higher up in the defense industry then you really have nothing to lose from a hypothetical Chinese government backdoor into your phone (an American government backdoor, on the other hand, is extremely threatening to you as the USG has shown time and again that if you become a "person of interest" for any reason they can and will build a spurious case against you).

  • a tightly controlled corporate response

    These suck for all kinds of reasons, but one of these definitely would have avoided the problems LMG is running into right now. I would say what they really need more than anything is a big, visible commitment to making things right for their employees - an outsider investigating sexual harassment is a start, but maybe also come out with a new less-rushed video schedule, since that's what literally everyone working there has complained about.

  • Taliban's Massively Successful Opium Eradication Raises Questions About What US Was Doing All Along
  • I quoted you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this and then made a comical version of you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this. That's not a straw man, unless you're trying to tell me that you're a scarecrow (because you certainly need a brain).

  • Taliban's Massively Successful Opium Eradication Raises Questions About What US Was Doing All Along
  • “nuh-uh” isn’t a convincing argument.

    lmao. Let's review what you said that I responded to.

    lmao, so? we get it. you hate the US. what’s your point? just to come here and whine about it?

    🤡 "Why would you post world news in a world news community? Who cares?"

  • Taliban's Massively Successful Opium Eradication Raises Questions About What US Was Doing All Along
  • That's not the creation of a straw man, that is an accusation I'm making of you, specifically, based on the fact that your comment in no way addressed the idea. If you read my comment you'll see that I also address your "argument" directly.

  • LTT is starting to lose subscribers
  • Subscriber count is kind of a bad metric. Most youtubers know that most of their viewers aren't subscribed, and that most of their subscribers don't watch all of their videos. It's a lot more useful for small channels that don't get recommended to randoms, but the bigger the channel gets the worse it is as a metric.
