Discord lowers free upload limit to 10MB: “Storage management is expensive”
  • so many people left reddit and fled to discord. So sad. Discord was ALWAYS going to enshittify itself to death, but okay people.

  • Trump Cancels a Debate With Harris on ABC News and Pitches One With Fox News Instead
  • Yes. This is blatant misinformation. Nobody "agreed" to anything. The actual nyt article doesn't even use this word. This post needs to be deleted.

  • The growth of Linux desktop marketshare, in percent of total, since 2009
  • I had dabbled in it off and on since LONG LONG ago, but I only went full time (no dual boot) since windows 11 release. So yeah, I bet there's lots others like me.

  • Sofa so bad for JD Vance as Trump’s VP pick faces swirling speculation
  • Yeah he basically wrote a book full of a bunch of lies in which he shits all over kentucky, but also the entire appalachian region with just a whole truckload of baseless claims and completely made up "stories" of his upbringing that never happened. It's all lies. Like @eestileib said, it just preyed on the prejudice big city people all over the country had about this region, having never actually been here at all. They think of Appalachia and think no shoes, inbred hillbillies who can't even speak and don't have running water. Vance wrote a NY TIMES BESTSELLER (how on earth did they approve that) that just made up a bunch of lies confirming all those prejudices. In reality Appalachia is one of the most unique, gorgeous, creative, wonderful places on earth. Of course it has its problems, but Vance would never write something about how beautiful and wonderful something is. He'd much rather write something that tears down and belittles people he knows nothing about.

    As I said: he's probably the #1 most hated human around this region.

  • Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabled
  • It was indeed buggy, which was when I reached out to support. They immediately asked if I was using not Google Chrome itself, but a Chromium offshoot like Brave or Vivaldi. I was using ungoogled chromium, so they told me it won't work. I switched to regular google chrome and it worked great. I wonder what on earth they're using that's part of Google Chrome that makes it work and not part of any other chromium projects.

  • Rivian Now Selling EVs With Software-Locked Batteries
  • man, I used to be interested in the pickup, not so much anymore. If I buy a car, it's mine to do whatever the F I want to do with it, I'll never buy any vehicle I don't own. (In this case no consumer ever owns a rivian)

  • Sofa so bad for JD Vance as Trump’s VP pick faces swirling speculation
  • I'm from central KY and my wife's from Appalachia. I think the entire region would have a massive week long party titled "FUCK JD VANCE FOREVER" if this happened. He's one of the most hated people around here. You even bring up his name and you can see people's heart rates and fury and anger go up even before the ranting begins.

  • A cool guide software alternative
  • Agree. I have tried gimp regularly over the past decade or so and never a single time has it been anywhere near close enough to act as a "replacement". A free tool to use in a pinch, sure, but as a full on replacement? Not a chance in hell.

  • Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabled
  • Ladybird looks great! Very much looking forward to an alpha linux release so I can use it and give all kind of feedback.

  • Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabled
  • There's already plenty of business web apps that require chrome. I specifically use a business focused web app that not only requires Chrome, but ONLY CHROME ITSELF and no chromium derivatives. That's the first time I've come across that. I had previously seen chrome requirements, but they worked just fine on ungoogled chromium. Not this one, nope. Regular Google Chrome and nothing else. wtf is that garbage.

  • PSA: Libraries
  • I use my libary card to download and read free ebooks on my Kobo all the time. Absolutely love it.

  • Proton launches privacy-focused Google Docs alternative: Docs in Proton Drive is an open-source, end-to-end encrypted collaborative document editor
  • Just tried it out with my proton account. Looks great! It's very simple, but I also like that about it. And of course being private is wonderful.

  • ‘The Bear’ Season 3 Hits 5.4 Million Views in Four Days, Hulu’s Biggest Scripted TV Premiere Ever
  • I don't understand the love for this show. My wife watches it, and randomly I'll catch a few minutes of it, and I swear every single scene is depressed people screaming at each other, or repeatedly yelling the word CHEF a thousand times in a row. Is there a single scene when a person smiles? Is happy? I call it "the yelling show".

  • Windows 11 just isn't enticing Windows 10 users to upgrade, and its market share is actually falling
  • Windows 11 was what finally forced me over to linux for good, no more dual booting. I know it sounds strange, but the straw that broke its back was the taskbar. I have an ultrawide monitor, so I ALWAYS have the taskbar vertical on a side. It makes zero sense to have it at the bottom. Massive waste of space. Windows 11 DID NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO MOVE THE TASKBAR. I was flabbergasted. This is a feature that has existed for decades in every OS. I just couldn't comprehend the stupidity, so I just didn't. Formatted the drive and went to Arch, then to Tumbleweed. Couldn't be happier.

  • What was a book so good that you have ReRead it?
  • Childhood's End

  • Deleted
    to those of you who use apple products, what do you use and why?
  • This is a low effort troll post.

    os upgrades are free

    bloatware is less on ios than on any other mobile os

    the rest is idiocy.

    save your time. Move on.

  • ‘Picard’ Season 2 Was Rewritten After Paramount Deemed It “Too Star Trek,” Says EP
  • What is this you Picard you speak of? There are only two star trek shows on tv right now: Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks.

  • A 7,000-Pound Car Smashed Through a Guardrail. That’s Bad News for All of Us.
  • All those tiny penis trucks are so funny, there's never a single spot of mud or dirt inside the wheel wells, and they put mud tires on to drive around on pavement! It's like ........ hmmmmmmmmm what happened to your brain?

  • What song hits you hard whenever you listen to it?
  • Best ever chill metal song: Orion.
