I’m hostile towards telemetry by default because of how much spyware there is in today’s technology. I’ll only allow it if it’s reasonable ( e.g. a GPS getting your location, system diagnostics for software devs ) and it’s consentual.

I plan on eventually boycotting English as much as I can. Both because of what global English represents, and to counteract the massive international pressure to do everything in English and its consequences.
That our memories are all we really know and have. They’re also volatile, and are usually changed to support a narrative.
Be careful.
Individualism.
Backups of my old computers.
Force all social media to become non-profits.
Depends on what “existential dread” means.
Also, they called themselves National Socialists. After all, would a government ever lie?
Windows is where it is because of Microsoft’s aggression. There’s no essence inside Windows that makes it widespread ex nihilo.
Linux isn’t as widespread as it could be because many people don’t realise it’s a viable alternative to Windows or Mac. It has nothing to do with how many distros there are. Also, newbies are usually recommended Ubuntu or Linux Mint, so it’s not even “so many choices” to begin with.
Also, you do realise you can interact with instances other than yours, right? I use lemm.ee btw.
It helps to remember that the mind is not a truth machine, but a survival machine.
I recommend learning some psychology. The more you know about how the mind works, the easier it is to understand and spot logical fallacies, both in yourself and others.
Edit: also, you should practice those critical thinking skills instead of just keeping them in theory. You could apply them to past situations, for example.
I’m autistic too.
My point isn’t that autistic people have a single, utopian personality, but that we’re generally less susceptible to certain social/psychological phenomena that tend to make societies shittier.
A world where all humans are autistic.
It wouldn’t solve everything, but at least there wouldn’t be room for chronic reification, useless charismatic narcissists, Cartesian dualism, etc to become big issues like they are in our world.
There is more variety of content here IMO. I like seeing more international posts even if i dont aleays understand the language or the context.
Wait, really? I’m having trouble finding non-English stuff even after sorting by new and subbing to non-English coms…
I don’t get why more people don’t just use ad blockers. The Reddit staff wouldn’t even know what’s happening until it’s too late.
Neither.
