That was my thought too. I’m guessing you’re American. Rural Americans are especially bigoted for some reason. I’ve been to rural areas in other countries and they’re not this bad. People openly stare at you in rural America if you’re not white.

Don’t you need 2 pairs for phone

White people love nascar because of all the whips

Whichever your favorite one is, that’s the most overrated one

I agree! Let me know when you find an uncorrupt government or uncorrupt corporation.

You’re my boy @ickplant

Agreed but I’m almost glad that happened since I’m off Reddit

Zap the royalty to prove your point and get flayed and executed for it

More likely you’d catch the bubonic plague and die within a few months

I get the sentiment but how is marble masculine aesthetic? Unless I’m missing something and the guy who said it was a cumstain was being serious.

It will appear so to some people which will stir shit up, which is probably the point of this

What is why? What is the solution we’re trying to solve?

Lemmy being imperfect doesn’t change the fact that it does solve one big problem: it takes the big corporation and its influences out of the equation. It is not possible for a centralized solution to do this.

Right but it would be an even better alternative if you had the choice who to block.

Btw blocking instances at the user level is a feature that will be coming to lemmy soon.

No I actually hope that industry becomes infeasible. I hope enough people get off their platforms so they go out of business. That industry needs a complete overhaul.

I think in this context “the ice” means the ice cream

I’m not sure what you mean exactly but I think you might be missing the point. Google is using chromium’s ubiquity to exert control over how the internet works. Chromium being so ubiquitous makes it so web servers can lock out other web browsers.

If you want the entire internet to work like an adobe product, where one company has absolute control over it, then yeah your analogy works. But the whole point is people don’t want that.

Okay. But google controls chromium, and everything that goes in it. And they’re using that control to change how the internet works. So just saying that “chromium is a problem” can be considered a useful shorthand so you don’t have to explain that every time.

Yes but it was changed quite a bit, it supported way more standards and was getting way more updates to keep it up to date. The issue is that was expensive and also people complained that it some websites didn’t work on it, so it made more economical sense to switch it to chromium. I really wish they had kept it though.

“Reapply” is rewriting it on the other branch. The branch you are rebasing to now has a one or multiple commits that do not represent real history. Only the very last commit on the branch is actually what the user rebasing has on their computer.

In this thread lots of uninformed people rationalizing why it’s actually okay to use chromium.
