This is why US First Amendment standards for freedom of speech need to be adopted everywhere, not with hundreds of “but this kind of speech is harmful to society” exceptions.

Aren’t Austrians just Germans pretty much?
The FPÖ certainly thinks so, yeah. Most of the rest of us do not.
Hm. I rarely buy ice cream in stores so I am not sure whether there is apple ice cream in stores here, but at ice cream parlors it is definitely reasonably common here.
Where do you live? Where I live (Austria), apple ice cream is maybe not 100% universally available at all ice cream vendors, but common enough that I have no problems getting it if I want to.
which Debian? Have you considered Debian testing or unstable?
All the time, both on Windows and KDE Plasma. It’s especially convenient for starting an app you don’t have pinned to your taskbar, just press the Windows key and then type the name of the app.
Rarely, but when I do: cutting in half, then eating it with a spoon. I never knew people did it other ways too.
I don’t have a very good answer to that either tbh; do we really need to do that so often?
video → video producer
audio → musician, podcaster, … depending on the type of audio
text media → author
The UI platform with the largest install base of all is the web. Nearly all computer users can use your GUI if you develop it for the web, it’s almost the definition of the universal open standard for GUIs.
Browsers can only execute JavaScript or WebAssembly, so you need to write it in JavaScript or in something that compiles to these things, e.g. TypeScript (but there are also ways to compile other languages to JS or WASM).
Do we need a general term? Someone who uploads their videos to a video platform is probably a “video producer”.
Nothing of course. I post stories about KOSA in order to make people aware what’s happening about it.
and here I thought complaints about the ribbon were late 2000s, early 2010s stuff, incredible we still get these kinds of things in 2024
ISPs are rich too?
I remember reading once that in the very first years of the existence of the German Democratic Republic, television was the form of mass media that was most critical of the regime. It just wasn’t as influential yet as newspapers and radio, so they didn’t care about it as much; when it became more popular, it too came more under the control of the communist regime.
I certainly agree that the Internet should be by and for individuals; whether we can in the long term do completely without corporations, I am not sure, but the current “algorithmic curation” is definitely a problem.
I mean I agree with that in principle, but: before the Internet, of course big corporations influenced kids and adults! Before the internet only big corporations had the resources and practical ability to distribute any information to a lot of people.
The promise of the internet was that we would have a society where we could all have a say and the flow of information would be democratized. You are right that, because of “algorithms”, that promise hasn’t really been fulfilled.
that’s right: into their UI; with free software, you could use a different UI with no ads
when he said that software should be free as in freedom, because that would solve this problem
Apple used to be the underdog in comparison to Microsoft before the iPhone existed.
Mozilla, well I tend to defend FOSS organizations, but this particular one isn’t very easy to defend.
