Oh well. I’m just glad I can access all my files on NTFS

Shhh! Don’t give them ideas…

You’re responsible for the technology you create.

So if I create a knife I’m responsible if someone uses it for murder?

Maybe I should implement a camera on the knife that records your kitchen 24/7 to make sure the knife wont be used for murder, is that OK with you?

Unionize workers in Microsoft.

If you “unionize” microsoft and keep windows non-free software, the employees get better wages, apart from that the users still get spied upon, and the means of production (windows source code) still under ownership of a small group of people, (and just like any other operating system or knife, can) still used for nefarious purposes.

Even if the workers at the microsoft commune decide to made windows non-spyware anymore, there is still no way to actually be sure since there’s no way to verify it.

Also, proprietary software isn’t only a prime example of private ownership of the means of production, but also a prime example of artificial scarcity.

As long as it’s “Free Software” instead of “Free people” you’re playing on the side of the tech oligarchy.

Free software is a requirement for free people, if you don’t understand that, then you really have no understanding of how technology works, of how people work and how freedom works.

I recommend reading the following article: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-even-more-important.html

Your OS doesn’t, put the messaging apps that your friends/family/coworkers use do.

And no, you can’t convince them to switch messager, I tried.

OMG! I’ve been looking for something like this for quite some time!

I will try this as soon as I have time. Thank you!

Idk what year that pic was taken, but 2GB of ram is useless no matter what operating system you put on it.

Except ofc for a home nas, but as a desktop, the user is going to open Firefox, try to open a website, it will take minutes to load and the user just wasted $20

Just an anecdote, but every time I try to create an account on Instagram I get automatically banned after account creation before even login-in for the first time.

If I recal they then ask me for a copy of my ID to confirm my name is real (which it isn’t).

I have no idea how they know, I’ve tried literally with different residential IPs, different emails and even on brand new devices. On my Instagram user friend’s house.

Maybe it’s just bad good luck, who knows. In don’t need Instagram anyway, just an interesting fact.

It can be pseudoanonymous if you use it that way. If you login to it via tor for example and only use it to communicate to people who aren’t related to your IRL identity.

Besides cash and mail is still much easier to track than Monero
