No, not THAT Hacker News!
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free 🇵🇸
No, not THAT Hacker News!
Nice, thanks! This is what I was looking for. Something that handled solely 2FA.
I’ve been moving over to Okta’s app. Wondering if I should pick something else though. All of my credentials are in 1Password, but I don’t want my 2FA in the same place.
Not everything has to be a subscription.
Unless you’re a greedy CEO. Then everything should be a subscription!
When the group with the most control within government at the moment is 1. The most extreme, 2. does not compromise at all, and 3. is pushing to strip rights from people, tell me what the options left are. At this point it’s not even about left vs right or any of that nonsense. It’s about preventing fascism from having a chokehold on the livelihood of the working class.
I’ve been pretty direct about the way I see it. I don’t see how I’ve moved goalposts. Extremism forces us to the most rudimentary set of options: help burn the house down, watch it burn, or try to put it out.
To be clear, I’m not a “vote blue no matter who” dipshit, and I can’t stand conservatives or libertarian types. The US duopoly is to blame for our lack of options, and when fascism has intertwined itself with your country’s leadership in the form of people like Netanyahu getting a standing ovation like Hitler did, options become… limited.
It’s anecdotal but every time I’ve encountered a person that identified as centrist or moderate, they mostly aligned with conservative ideology and were otherwise absent from political participation or opinion. It becomes this thing where they pick and choose based on their own personal privilege because their future isn’t yet being threatened by extremism (which can also be attributed to classical liberalism). This is the unfortunate byproduct of being up against a side that is willing to take everything from people in order to get what they want.
If the alternative is extremism that continues to push right, centrists are doing fuck all for the working class collective. Extremism unfortunately makes that an inescapable reality.
Any time someone says they’re a “moderate” or a centrist, it usually means they will fold to fascism if it serves them, which makes them a right-winger by default. Fuck all of this soft language. You either support human rights, or you don’t. There is no middle ground.
Microsoft has become a weird one. On the side of things like GitHub and VSCode, they’ve done really well and have fostered amazing tools. I have friends that work on the developer side of things there and love it. But then you look at Windows and it’s a damn abomination. It’s easily one of the most anti-consumer pieces of software in existence.
Bazzite looks like it’s way more customizable and expanded. I might actually dual boot it out of curiosity.
Oh god why lmao. NortonOS™️
I just installed Nobara today so I could finally rid myself of Windows hell and it’s been amazing.
This is actually a thing. It’s called “Model Collapse”. You can read about it here.
I refuse to use anything Meta has its claws on.
What’s to stop every single corporation from leveraging third party contractor companies just to escape union bargaining? Cognizant seems like a company that basically exists for this reason. Both Amazon and Google play this game and it’s infuriating.
I ditched Brave ages ago when the ad and crypto bullshit really ramped up, and finding out Peter Thiel was involved and Brendan Eich was a bigot, were more than enough to keep me away from Brave.
I currently use Arc on desktop because it makes my life as a busy dev much easier to organize, and Safari on iOS because every browser on there is just Safari anyway. iOS Safari + custom DNS to block ads. Works for me.
I’d use Firefox but Arc’s organization features have become insanely useful.
Thanks! It was funny buying the domain enjoying.yachts since I don’t own nor will ever own a yacht.
