great vid!

Exactly, otherwise it’s just, well, scrolling.

meh

i bet it was bc of me

You totally made this from my recent comment didn’t you:

Right exactly. A “community” like /r/conservative can’t really exist on the Fediverse in the same way because it’s current function depends on outsiders to engage with.

I started off strongly disagreeing but you make a good point. I think I would honestly be “happy” to see something like /r/conservative move to a decentralized platform (though that might be a bad example because it’s purpose is more of a propoganda-spreader than a true “community”).

If we’re getting upset by canonical inconsistencies I have to wonder what bothers you about the Discovery Klingons specifically when I see no mention of the significantly more comprehensive “reimagining” of the TMP (or later the TNG) Klingons? Just seems like an odd place to draw the line.

It was two years…

I’m just saying, the term “capitalism”:

is defined by a number of basic constituent elements: private property, profit motive, capital accumulation, competitive markets, commodification, wage labor, and an emphasis on innovation and economic growth.

OP said that enshittification is “the MO of capitalism”, and that just definitionally doesn’t really make sense because enshittification (as defined by Cory Doctorow) happens not under capitalism, but what he calls “techno-feudalism”. Where you see monopolies existing and antitrust laws not being enforced, you are not seeing capitalism because you are not seeing a competitive market.

Just to be safe you may want to copy important files to a cloud storage AND usb drive before formatting the drive.

Also don’t overthink this and there is nothing wrong with Kubuntu, but Kinoite is going to be very similar and a little more resistant to n00b tinkering mistakes.

I agree, like I said I fully own that I was being pedantic over definitions.

Yeah absolutely, and woo pedantry that’s on me for oversimplifying. I do recall reading (I can’t find it right now) an essay where he said that “enshittification” as he describes it can happen in any situation where an entity has trapped both consumers and businesses but that it’s more common with tech companies because they move faster than regulations do.

things simply getting worse doesn’t fit my understanding,

fwiw I totally agree but if I may play an uno-reverse-pedantry card on you, Cory has said he doesn’t care if someone uses the word to simply mean “gets shitty”.

As long as we agree that the term “enshittification” describes a failure of capitalism (and not it’s “MO”).

I know Cory Doctorow (who coined the term) has said that he doesn’t mind if people use the term “enshittification” to simply mean “product gets worse”, but the definition he gave it specifically refers to anti-capitalistic practices (what he calls “technofeudalism”).

“Enshittificiation” as described by Doctorow hurts businesses too. “Capitalism” definitionally implies the presence of a competitive market. “Enshittification” (like you said nothing new) describes what happens when a market is no longer competitive because it controlled by a single entity (monopoly). “Enshittification” happens when the government stops enforcing laws that protect free markets and allow capitalism to break down.

Sorry for being a pedant but I see those words gets thrown around a lot in ways that IMO can muddle the meaning.

I don’t think starfleet captains have the authority to command the hearts and minds of their officers.

True, I edited my comment. I personally recommend the USB method (or if you have easy access to the internals- just swapping out an SSD).

It got cloudy

First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, “Lemmy” users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.
