FYI, your banner pic gets me every time. 🤣

Same. They don't want us to buy healthy food. They want us to buy all the processed garbage that they're invested in.

i feel i need to explain a principle i discovered during my research into manipulation techniques:

when you find yourself being provoked to try and resolve absurd and/or irrational equations, you should be suspicious that someone is trying to confuse you.

confusion is one of the core attack types used to weaken your mind.

these attacks are at the root of the flare-ups you see now and then on social media where someone says something almost true, but somehow flawed, and then everyone starts fighting with each other because they are sure they can make sense out of it.

just put the social media browser away, go do something productive.

the objective of the attack is precisely to waste your time, nothing more, nothing less.

the theme engine of gnome 4 is a clunky copy of the MacOS style with dark and light frames in the same frame, and no support for GTK3 theme engines.

i like Adapta, which in code editors is known as "material oceanic", it is a dark green theme. Gnome 4 makes my desktop into a dog's breakfast of pseudo mac looking garbage.

i'm also very pissed at Gnome devs for the pointless and intrusive Tracker3 search engine back end. it always crawls my massive collections of code and fucks up my ability to work, play games, and generally enjoy use of my computer. Tracker has been a problem since they started that shit in gnome 3. it's idiotic, because for the most part, slocate does the main job of indexing your filesystem, i am more often searching for filenames than wanting to search content, and that's what Tracker3's specialty is.

i just turn it off, forcibly, it always hits me out of the blue after a few weeks running a new installation and i'm so frustrated. i've managed to keep an installation ongoing, but yeah, between the constant mangling of gnome's dconf registry style configuration system (at least as bad as windows registry) and ubuntu's habit of upgrading kernels that are locked in with packages that i can't uninstall, that don't support my video hardware, black screen boot out of the blue, and unhelpfully difficult to access GRUB configuration.

this is why my system now is running arch, cinnamon, themed with adapta, tracker3 is disabled forcibly, as well as in the configuration.

btw, you should see how intrusive tracker3's settings are in dconf.

it's almost like they are putting it in there to spy on us, all they need to do is slide into your user profile via some vulnerable app and they can just snarf tracker's indexes and quickly determine what your business is.

i don't like Mark Shuttleworth, I don't like Gnome Foundation and I don't like the Linux kernel either. all of them are sus as fuck, most likely NSA fronts just like all the rest of tech.

gnome 4 has been a total disaster, and they don't let you have a way back. nearest i have found is cinnamon.

We the judge decide the corr3ctedness of the perception.

I did. Got criticized for (also) criticizing. Work/effort got ignored. Another one of these hateful actions. The world is really weird nowadays.

Most criticize. Few build.

Join the few.

imagine a password, which you are unable to remember and have to use an extension to login with

and if you lose it, it’s unrecoverable and you won’t have any customer support or password recovery either

it’s a tough sell

one of my biggest points that i was discussing at the unconference:

why is 90% of the developer powers going into developing twitter clones, when there’s so much more to build and apply the protocol for

another login again - nsecs, NIP-07 logins through phone and extensions on your phone are max pain to explain and to even use

in hopes that they get sorted out to a level you put it, it’d be an absolute dream and joy to demonstrate 💜🙏

Even on their best notificagion settings, messages were not coming through. I really want p2p to work well!

Would love others opinion on this. What is your go to messenger with family? I dont like Signal because I dont want to be tied down to a phone number. Is Threema unsafe? nostr:note13qv5a7yd3hwjmeegc2fmfrjpehzpjjjvlm6d76feg4kak8j7v4pqs2hqx5

Very easy to get to there lol.

To that I say this. our experience of reality is both subjective and objective at the same time. Our subjective experience is unique to each individual, but it is also grounded in objective reality. Belief that life is good or bad is very important.

There is no right no wrong no middle or left. Just perception. It's true and false at the same damn time.
