@davel notably, we are not in China. Are you also going to claim that DeepSeek isn’t censored?
If you don’t see any protests in a democracy, it’s not because everybody is happy.

> just like every other state in the world
Really? Let’s talk about Tiananmen Square. Or how about Uyghurs. Let’s use a picture of Winnie the Pooh. Is it really “just like” every other state? I’d say it’s a little bit above the average. People’s democracy my ass. Just because trump turned USA authoritarian didn’t make China less authoritarian.
@fubbernuckin Because you did spend that time to learn cooking somewhere in the past. Look, I teach IT students, and there is a very clear difference between those who use ChatGPT for everything, and those who try to figure things out. Even asking the right questions from people on IRC is a skill that needs to be learned and practiced. You don’t see it, because you haven’t grown up in a world with ChatGPT since the start, so you did already learn that. But can you ever stop learning?
@fubbernuckin Right, so you only substitute “how to read documentation” and “how to talk to people on IRC”, great…
@fubbernuckin Well yes, but those hours are called “learning”. Learning must hurt, it’s a change in the brain, that pain will change you, you want to be changed. You will not learn to figure things out if you just always reach for the robot at the sign of first trouble.
@MalReynolds Leopards eating faces implies that they voted for the Leopards. But ok, issue clarified, all good.
@thingsiplay It does, if it turns into dependence. Look at Mozilla.
@MalReynolds Are you saying F-Droid, TOR, Tails or Let’s Encrypt supported Trump? I’d like to read more about that.
@envoy No additional “analysis” by some random guy on internet can change what the CEO wrote and did. I saw him admire trump. I saw him use company support account for his personal fight. This really needs something a bit stronger than an “analysis” to regain some trust.
@JakobFel Depends what opinion. Strongly depends.
@envoy CEO is a trumpist
@nasi_goreng It does. It makes it visible. I mean look, we are talking about it. And people tolerating the regime, which needs their ignorance to function, yes, those people should not be enjoying the perks of the free world. The alternative is that we will host and greet the supporters of such regimes, and I don’t think that’s in any way effective.
@nasi_goreng what if the people then use that platform to get nice vacations in occupied territories?
@driving_crooner sanctions work to stop undemocratic regimes. Those regimes are keeping their own people hostage, and I wish there was a way to save the anti-regime people without supporting the regime. But traveling to Crimea is not what anti-regime people do, so sanction that ass.
@TheOubliette living in a country, vs going on vacation in Crimea, are two very different things.
@TheOubliette @racketlauncher831 supporters and apologists of violence against innocent civilians should be punished, by any human. You don’t think so? Do you support violence against innocent civilians?
@SomethingBlack You failed to put “debian” into google when you were wondering about what “debian” means, instead, you spent several comments and a lot of time demanding answers from other people. You are disrespecting everyone who might be able to help you. You’d know that, if you had read the links I posted, they explain it very well. And I don’t think you are willing to change so… bye bye
@SomethingBlack It’s basic human decency. You ask questions like everyone is working for you.
@davel You are confidently incorrect on both counts, but that’s to be expected. Stay classy.
