Most people do, they are just comparing themselves with models, celebs or influencers, people that earn a living out of being pretty.

Windows is frustrating for average people, the thing is that they get used to ms bullshit because they think there are no other way.

Dude just gave people ideas of how to get revenge on bad landlords, spray some spores on your last day and hope for the worse.

We are one old guy away from the first world i see

They put up guard rails to protect the ego of facists from developed countries only.

Maintaining a browser is crazy hard. If Firefox goes to shit, it would require some serious foundation to maintain a good fork.

Live in Rio, from this list i have almost everything in a 15 minute walk distance the only exceptions are

• shopping mall(30 min walking)
• public hospital (used to have but it closed, now the closest is 30 min walking)
• Movie theater(30 min walking)
• Sports arena(1h walking)
• Public University(2h walking)

Although i have a lot of services close, it is still a chore to go walking because a lot of the walking is uphill, i wish there was more public infrastructure to help people move up and down like trams and stuff like that, way back them the city uses to have trams everywhere, but now there’s almost none.

What isn’t on the list, but i absolutely didn’t want around, was an neopentecostal church. Unfortunately, they are everywhere and super loud and disrespectful.

That and the noise, bars can be pretty loud

Next step is selling recaptcha for phones.

You go accepting one small thing after another, and soon you will be locked into a crappy service.

That and using multiple instances of the browser instead of one instance with many tabs helped me a lot. If i have to switch tasks i go to a new workspace and only open the software related to that task there. Once I’m done i just close everything in the workspace and move back to the previous one that is the same way it was before i switch.

On what the article touches, he is not wrong. Buying a new car, even if it’s an electric one, will have more impact than a lot of time using a gasoline one, especially if the country doesn’t produce electricity in a sustainable way.

Also, if you want to help the environment, you shouldn’t be replacing cars, but removing them, public transportation, and walkable cities are so much better in this regard.

As a single person, most of it comes down to what you support, avoid consuming things that rely on cruelty and slavery to be produced, study to be more aware of what is actually happening, and don’t panic, there’s very little a person alone can do.

Joining groups with similar minds can help you make more, but groups can be very hard, people have different views on things, and radicalism can make some good willed people do pretty terrible things.

It’s easier for the non tech savy person to keep in a working state, Android depending on the OEM and Windows come with a lot of bullshit that the average person don’t know how to uninstall and avoiding accumulation of bloatware, even simple things like unchecking a checkbox on an instalation wizard are a mystery for most people.

Apple restrictive environment ends up removing a lot of footguns.

Well, Apple uses a Unix like OS, that have a lot of nice things in common with Linux.

I agree that the school environment should be more motivating, but there’s no way to compete with apps and games designed to be addictive, even adults have trouble avoiding their phones at work.

Oppression breeds rebellion, why relying on a software you have zero control over, that the company that owns it respects you so litle that they pre install adware and spyware, learn to use Linux or BSD, you don’t have to use it all the time, but learn the basics, understand how this machine you use so much works, seize that litle piece of freedom back, and even if you choose to use windows again, after knowing more of how things work, you will be more able to force it in working your way.
