What happens when you squeeze an orange?
It shits it’s diaper!

Give it 5 minutes.

It’s SUPER hard to use. I had to download an .iso from my distro’s website, make a bootable USB drive, plug that into my computer and boot into it, answer a few questions and wait a few minutes, A FEW MINUTES… can you believe that??
And then It had the audacity to give me a super easy, working, private OS! Like what the fuck!
How bloody dare you make my life difficult. I was expecting to be TRACKED and EXPLOITED and BOMBARDED with ads all day.
Instead I get all this calm and happiness??
FFS!

It’s really annoying. And the funny part is, it flip flops each time I visit. Comments on the right, comments below, right, below.
Google is famous for mucking things up.
Maybe someone should get User input for once.

Sounds like a class action lawsuit waiting to happen.
Imagine that you pay for an ad free streaming service through your roku, like HBO for example. And now you have ads streaming over it?
People will sue for a way to disable it over ad free paid content.
Also, this will lead to way more pirating. People are sick of advertisements.

Tower Records was my cult. I miss that place the most.

Oh crap, now what am I going to have for lunches.

Oh damn! If the suckerburg empire is already censoring Pixelfed, wait until they find out about Loops.
Fakebook is not a social media site, it’s a place to stalk and scam people, just like the other suckerburg tracking apps.

Install a Linux Distro. Connect to external monitor, plug power into wall.
Use it for a dedicated torrenting machine or use it as a test machine for whatever you like. If you kill it, whatever.
Otherwise I would just take that SSD out and recycle the machine.

I use my “smart” tv as a monitor to stream. It has never connected to the internet and it does not pester me.

Agreed!

It’s always nice to read good news.

I use a Medium theme on my desktop. It’s not dark or light. It really works for me.
I found it here, https://github.com/blue-mood/blue-mood-kde-color-scheme
I was actually looking for a Med-Dark charcoal theme and decided to try this first. I’ve used it for years now.

Not for a dumb tv but I own a newer Vizio. I actually use it as a huge desktop monitor through HDMI. The actual tv itself has never been connected to the internet. You could connect a streaming stick (roku, amazon, google) if you wanted to. I stream everything from the net. Vizio has a horrible “free” streaming tv service that tracks you. But you can still use the actual tv in other ways if you don’t connect it to the net. It will act as a dumb tv.
Until we have a federal privacy law that allows us to opt out of being tracked on every device, you have to “work around” the problems.

Lots of truth in that piece.

Reminder: He lost a fucking casino! He’s stupid and poor.

I remember that movie. The ending was so romantic.

Had you purchased a Samsung this never would have happened!!

It’s larger than 6 olympic swimming pools and fits in my pants.

Here is some info about the decline of truth on google search.

They are twins with Microsoft. New product, massive hype, dead in 3 years.
