Nothing you listed is liberal or left wing about LinkedIn, I mean I do fucking hate it too and you’re kind of forced to use it if you want to reach the upper echelons of corporate America and some companies will straight up just make you one without your permission which in turn will make your personal information available to anyone with a search engine.

Why do you think it’s so radically left wing/communist here? IDK if you’ve ever seen GAB, but it feels like that for liberals.

Same city, same search filters, different prices for different people 🤔

I just tried this yesterday and I was still getting different prices for the same hotel on desktop and mobile, it wasn’t as bad as when we were on vacation where every single person in the car was seeing a different price for the same search criteria we put in. About 70% of the hotels had the same price yesterday but the other 30% ended up being almost $50 more expensive when I looked on desktop. So I don’t think it’s a coincidence at all and I actually encourage you to try searching for the same thing on different devices to see what I’m talking about.

Lately it’s been Islam, because of the clean living aspect. Like they consider alcohol, cigarettes, pork, and anything bad for you a sin. And I do respect that about their religion, it’s a good value to have in your life.

5G is super fast, and wow you Romanians are lucky. But here in America ISPs are grinches who charge you 49.99 for the first year and then increase your price to $80, which is a whole 60% mark-up. So before 5G home Internet was a thing, you only had one provider in the area you lived, and this lack of competition basically allowed them to price gouge us over the years till our bill got to $220 for 100mb. 5G was truly a life saver for my families budget. And you are right about cable Internet being more performant, but 5G did introduce some very much needed competition in the telecommunications space.

I used to have several outages per year with fiber internet. In the year and a half I’ve had 5G home Internet not a single outage. But you are able to get much higher speeds with fiber, so if you had some kind of business that needed like 10 gig speeds, fibers the best choice for that. But for home Internet 5G is much more superior in reliability, and fairness in pricing for the consumer.

Im in the U.S as well, T-Mobile with unlimited 5G home Internet is $50 a month with no commitment. I’ve used hundreds of GB’s per month with 0 cap or slow downs.

I don’t think it gets any cheaper than aws ec2 instances, but I use lightsail because it’s super easy to set up and you get the first three months free. EC2 has a free tier also.

Unlimited Internet is a thing now, I pay $50 a month for 5G home Internet. I’m guessing you have one of those dinosaur fiber internet where a technician has to come to your house to install internet.

Lol isn’t that what all these ai chatbots are doing?

Arch Linux based distros (arco, Manjaro, endeavor) have my favorite package manager in the world (not pacman) but yay. I’ve tried every package manager and for me nothing comes close to yay. But the sad part is arch updates have completely destroyed every arch based distro I’ve ever had. The last one (endeavor os) literally made me hate Linux for awhile, because I put a great deal of work and love into setting up a desktop environment, configuring the hell out of my terminal and my dev environment and one update just destroyed my whole desktop. It takes me more than 2 days to completely get my Linux desktop configured to where I like it, and endeavoros just breaking my desktop environment really demoralized me from trying to set up another Linux box again for a long time, so I just went back to my super stable MacBook that wasn’t as fun or ergonomic but at the end of the day it’s never given me serious issues. Of course I’m back to using Linux, this time with stable old Ubuntu.

Wait are you joking or serious, sarcasm doesn’t carry over too well over text. There are proprietary add ons from ms that aren’t open source, but vscode itself is oss.

Linux, Firefox based browsers, vs code, KDE, and the fediverse.

I’m glad there’s another human being who appreciates them as much as me!

I’ve been an athlete since a child so in some weird way I guess I’ve been raised to just enjoy the discomfort of working out because I know the reward is tenfold of whatever discomfort I’m feeling while working out. So basically don’t raise sedentary kids, give them a love of working out so they can live a healthy and happy life.
