You can get used to everything, most people would probably quit though.

I spend maybe a tenth of the time here that I spent on reddit

MacOS is a lot worse than Windows tbh

It’s not. People are just afraid of being replaced, especially when they weren’t that original or creative in the first place.

That’s the point as the people are enabling the government

Because they are at war now?

Ukraine didn’t fire rockets at Russia and kidnap Russians for decades.

Also dist upgrades. There’s always some shit package that’s breaking at probably a dependency for some others

I like Linux but if you do more with it than just internet browsing then “just works” isn’t how I would describe it

HTTPS does enforce at least one sided authentication though. In the scenario the service they access is most likely being hosted by a server that does authenticate via X.509 cert.

Unless it’s p2p of course.

Ah, okay, thank you.

So the problem isn’t for the downloading party but for content availability on the server.

Dumb question: how can you get DMCA’d?

I thought it’s all encrypted and servers are no log?

Look man, even if I provide you with 5 opinion pieces about it that say it’s okay would it change your mind?

Do you think black Pete or Belgium are the only ones with traditions like that?

What’s offensive or not is upon the people to decide and blacks in the US do not speak for the rest of the world.

You know there’s also black people nit offended by some or all of these traditions. What now?

Being especially racist also doesn’t make a country experts on racism. If it were the case the US wouldn’t be as racially divided as it still is. I’d argue it’s way, way worse then most first world countries to be honest.

That’s a bit farfetched.

Following that argument every single skill in life is dependant on literacy and I’m pretty sure illiterate people are still able to learn and analyze.

Even if not, technically illiterate people can actually read a button or menu item.

So your evidence is an American written article about why something perceived as racist in America is racist anywhere?

You’ve gone full circle, dude.

big part of why racism against blacks is such a big topic in the US is because there are so many more than in Europe

You know it might also have something to do with that tiny thing about the southern states and slavery and so on.

Let’s just agree to disagree, you are missing my point entirely and keep doing so.

I don’t know what you do exactly, but I appreciate every single volunteer and the work they put in to make everyone’s life better

It’s not a form of mockery, that’s just the US cultural interpretation of it.

If I put on an iron man suit I’m not mocking iron man. If anything I’m giving him credit for being a cool dude.

Context matters.

But the meme was about tech illiterate people dude

Essentially yes. The application of paint to one’s face by itself isn’t a racist act.

For some reason it’s seen as the epitome of racism in the US, but that’s a cultural thing.
