It can become really messy if one family member deletes a picture by accident and everyone complains. I'd use Syncthing for machines I personally manage.

I used Davmail which acts as a bridge to access Outlook from Thunderbird. There is a thunderbird plugin, but it was paid so I backed out.

I'm sure corporations like this would give you free Internet if they could collect and sell all your data.

Already a thing. I see them advertised everywhere for prepaid plans and people go 'omg Facebook/Whatsapp/Instagram/TikTok for free!!1!'.

Nah, just call it retro.

Deltachat is a clever idea that I wish it became more widespread.

Out of the loop for this one. Is Affinity a software for graphics editing, which was regarded as an alternative to Adobe, but it now acquired by a big corp?

There's no easy solution. Some are evicted from their homes with crushing debt, some have safety nets to depend on, some want to end their homeless situation as soon as possible, some, however, are content with eating discarded food and begging for cash to buy alcohol. Not everyone is a hopeless drug addict or a temporarily inconvenienced millionaires, and this is not even mixing charity into the problem.

My guess is whoever thought on implementing AI into this probably consider this a problem that can be made easy by offloading all our human problems into a black box. It isn't going to be that way.

Android not having proper permissions back from KitKat era caused a lot of contact lists being leaked like rainwater. I'm still jaded at Google for that one.

Assuming that directors post was real, I am sure she wanted to properly grieve for her husband and have enough time to heal and provide for her children, to tie loose ends and close that chapter of her life in privacy.

But all she had was a sanitized corporate billboard where all she knew was to unconsciously make her post into a self congratulatory advertisement, of a heroic single mother sacrificing her mental health for her work.

It's all tragic.

Worst of both worlds, the one-upping bootlicking culture, the fear of missing out on job prospects fueled by economic anxiety, with corporate enshittification liberally sprinkled in, all combined into one giant pile of turd.

And I say this as I'm also guilty of having an account on it. I also want to get rid of it, but can't afford to risk my chances while looking for better jobs. Fuck all this.

Got in just after Dapper, those days fooling around with compiz were the best. Went distrohopping when Unity happened.

Linkedin is a cesspool and nothing but a dumpster fire. I wish I wasn't pressured to joining it for job searches.
