Honestly it does have some hallmarks of poor mental health

I hate how YouTube seems to intentionally show salacious ads if you opt out of ad personalization. I get a ton of Temu spam despite not purchasing anything from that app or even having it on my phone, and the ads themselves usually feature scantily-clad women that takes up 70% of the screen. I've made a habit of just opening up the comments section and keeping them open the entire duration of the video. It really feels like YouTube/Google/Alphabet is saying "oh, you don't want people around you to think you're a perv? Let us collect more data about you so you can save face in public when you use our app at the gym or at work."

Weird, the update checker in this beta is still showing there's an update available but the only difference is how the version is typed out

Looks like this may be a bit of a theme for this guy...

Apart from Debian, he has also targeted Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) and it has got so bad, they have had to reach the extreme of pursuing legal action against him. He violated EU data protection laws by illegally copying subscriber information from FSFE's mailing lists and subscribed everyone to his own list. He also ran a script that tried to unsubscribe everyone from FSFE's lists. Then he claimed that what he did must have been legal because he has not been arrested yet, while at the same time continuing to use his list to spread lies and defamatory statements about volunteers and the FSFE itself. Which is something he has also been doing to Open Labs, accusing them of human trafficking, running a paedophilia ring, and god knows what else.

But Oracle will be leading towards an "offer" to overlook earlier unlicensed software if they agree to sign up to the new subscription model, Biggs said.

So...Oracle is just adopting the mafia mentality to accomplish this? Yeesh.

A lot of healthcare facilities are running EOL operating systems like Windows XP or Windows 7 because the programs they use for billing or other reasons are stuck on that version. You would be shocked at how prominent this is across most "modern" infrastructure. The resistance to change stems from a "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" mentality. Pagers are still the most reliable ways to reach a doctor, which is why they're still used, not because they're necessarily the most secure.

As easy as it is to point blame at "duh boomers" the situation with healthcare in particular is much more nuanced. Though I do agree that any luddites in charge of major hospitals are not helping the situation at all.

The tshirt looks really cool

Real ones remember vlemmy.net. One of the first instances post-Reddit migration to go away suddenly

Just say you don't like Ubuntu lol

He switched to Debian

That's what I'm hoping for, got burned in some Blender courses a few years ago when I didn't do some due diligence lol. Thanks!

Anyone know how current this is? Is there some sort of community that can help troubleshoot if needed?
