  • I truly don’t understand your rant or hate unless you love corporations pushing age verification

    Either you increase your attack vector by running a bash script and risk breaking your entire repo by changing your $release or youre a dicksucking corpo

    Anything else? Or do I have to continue?

    because it lays the emperor bare and naked

    In what way? Please, seriously, tell me. If I change my $release to this, does my distro maintainer suddently stop implementing any age stuff? Because honestly I don’t think this is how FOSS works. If you don’t like it, fork it and maintain it.

    Honestly this is just as much a protest as the clippy profile pictures. You can say you did something, but you were just as complacant as those embracing it.







  • Email.

    As someone who has been self hosting some stuff and generally aspires to work in IT, it is simply unfeasible to expect services like this for free

    Would it cost me less to host such a server divided by x users? Yes

    Do I have x users I can sustainably service without burning out? No.

    So its either a managed server for like 15€ per month + a bunch of work or a paid email provider, in my case fastmail.











  • As someone who had a phase where my day consisted of saying snarky stuff to stupid people on a forum known for stupid people, its about your self worth being so bad that you start seeing others as subhuman for not knowing such a basic thing

    At the time, I was not sure if I would pass high school, and since I needed the degree for the thing I want to study (system integration), I was pretty much suicidal, although only passively/only wanting to jump off of a bridge, not doing it

    And since my self worth was already zero, I saw others who knew even less as the unsaveable bottom of humanity
