They say music is the food of love

Let’s see if you’re hungry enough

Take a bite, take another

Just like a good boy would

Get a sweet thing on the side

Home cooking, homicide

Side order, could be your daughter

Finger licking good

Come on, baby, eat the rich

Put the bite on the son of a bitch

In the before times we had libraries of books that’d teach a person anything they wanted to learn. If a person had a question and the book didn’t answer there was someone there who didn’t know the answer but damn well knew how to find it. We never had to sort through piles of garbage content produced to waste our time for profit.

Even the early Internet was this way. Its slow degradation became a nose dive with broad adoption of Facebook and AI. I had to starting writing a line of code to search. And, that doesn’t even work anymore.

I give what others are prepared to receive. If you wanted to know then you’d ask. You’re not asking so I’m teaching you how to learn. You’re not learning that. I’m not the one to teach you or you’re just not ready, yet.

I can’t afford to care about you personally any more than I’ve already.

Good luck and goodbye.

LMAO this chump can’t get past the ad hominem and learn… well, anything really.

If you don’t know what Weber’s Iron Cage is or don’t know how it applies, then perhaps you should ask a question.

That’s not a question.

If you need help applying the core concepts governing our paradigm then perhaps you should ask questions

Weber’s Iron Cage and the history of enshitification of technology beg to differ.

So, why in the everliving fuck would anyone rationalize a UI change with appeal to a broader audience?

Even after all this time very few seem to understand what happened between hexbear and almost all other instances: They didn’t want neoliberal drivel to destroy what they’d built. They even made the vast majority think it their own idea to leave them alone.

That’s quite a novel way of saying, “I don’t know what capitalism is actually about, nor do I understand why broad adoption destroys individual choices.”

Kudos on your capitalism. Hopefully, we don’t extend our violent means to neoliberals.

reach the broader average general audience

For Lemmy to reach the broader average general audience

Fucking capitalists will enshitify this also.

Way ahead of you.

If Google’s not the final say in driver QA then I think it’s fantastic. But, the last phone that I’ve rooted was an S5. I don’t know what’s up today.

Samsung does indeed have a bunch of bloat. I think we’ve both made well-informed and reasoned choices, picked our poison. We likely share core ideology because we both would like to choose a fairphone.

My wife and I’d Pixels were rock solid until one day a Google update came along and killed them with an unrecoverable loss of critical functionality. The only way I’d recommend one of these is if one heavily values having the newest thing for cheap, or for the wide angle camera.

That’s not a question. Your loss.

Coincidentally, that’s the almost exactly the longest life we had in our family. Then, one day my wife performed an update which immediately killed the screen. My Pixel failure was far more frustrating: After a system update I learned that if the screen wasn’t clean enough on post-update reboot, Google disabled multi-touch forever.

Consider that an S23 FE (one model behind the flagship and with lesser CPU) is 70-75% the cost of a Pixel 9. The only differences that most users would notice is: The Samsung has a telephoto and Google an ultrawide; The Samsung won’t unexpectedly die due to a software issue.

All strawman.

The shopping mall is not legally obligated to eject the Nazi.

But, you think government should force action upon the private entity because the majority disagrees with Nazis.

That’s exactly the opposite of why the 1st Amendment exists. Everyone else learned this when they studied why someone can burn the flag or why the ACLU supports Satanists.

I’ve no want for your nonsense. And, you do a disservice to others by repeating it. Go learn about quasi public spaces.
