I mean I was waiting to see how shitty the apple tv neuromancer adaptation would be next year, but at this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if we end up pushing random Timmys into becoming techies and netrunners. Life imitates art I guess.

Not sure if that info is available or even possible to filter out, but i think this happens in every social media site

According to FediDB there has been a 1.7% growth this month. Meaning 244,051 new accounts have been created on fediverse on the past 30days. Almost 250thousand people in a month. I'm sure this is completely coincidental

I joined Matrix today, It's been 4-5 hours, I've seen multiple other users joining aswell, asking for what client is the best one or how to do X. For sure a lil exodus is happening.

someone on matrix told to try sable, its installing rn, thanks for the suggestion!

safest- id say, I don't think anything is 100% safe, like on pc i use linux and I feel that's safer than the old ass Iphone I use. Like on a phone they can decide tomorrow "oh btw we are gonna scan your entire phone now just because or record your screen or whatever" while on linux I feel that's not a thing.

mhmm! It's awesome, and not only like open-minded/queer but a lil anti-establisment too, they had the usual ideas and discourse common in the open source space, also yea being queer myself too, I can't help but notice tech it really open to differences like that, another reason to like it!

Same country, but yea you shouldn't believe me at all without proof, not implying you should either, but yeah are dope people, loved the way he talked about doing consulting, "eh, listen here, a job is just a means to an end, so you gotta try and work as little as possible, I do have a private office space I rent that I go to a few times a week, but I try not to if I can help it, and with big companies you always overbill when it comes to time, they don't really know how much time anything takes anyways smirk, and then I get time back to do whatever I feel like actually working on." And his gf at the time (a trans girl) was also wicked smart, oh, they also liked going to vegas every so often (I don't even know if they are still together tho, its been a long time and I didn't keep in touch at all)

What do you get out of a rolling release? I get that you get newer stuff faster, but what does that do for your day to day use?

anecdotal experience tells me people who use arch break their system way more than people who use mint, not exactly sure why that happens

Can't believe you can get something like that out of a few pencils

Having kids is a big responsibility, I've seen ton of people who have kids that couldn't even take care of a cat... Sadly the ones that have the most kids are the same ones that shouldn't, and the ones that are responsible enough to choose not to have kids are the ones that would actually take care of their kids properly.
