In the 90s, as a kid in Quebec, I thought racism, sexism, homophobia were all things of the past. Boy was I naive.

Well, antifascist, anticapitalist, anti-colonialist, atheist, pro-trans, I guess I would be arrested right at the border at the land of the free. Good luck with the pedo-dictatorship USA.

Europeans are pretty active on this mater. I’m always amaze by how much people go to bistro bin France and Belgium. I think this applies to pub in England too. In Quebec, I think it was morr common in the 60, 70 and earlier and fade away with the importance TV and later the Internet took in people’s home. Now when I go back to some small cities that use to have pretty active downtowns in the late 90s and 200Os, it’s absolutely dead. The only bars that survive have a crowd of people in their 40s and more. It use be full of young people, but now I guess they just "flix and chill’…

You have no idea how deep the education system is now into gafam. To study in Quebec now, you absolutly need a cell phone with ms authenticator, teams is basically mandatory, etc. I’m one of the only teacher at my college that cares enough to show use and show foss alternative to my students. For example Moodle is the most powerfull tool a teacher could dream of for grades, quizz, file sharing, assigments, etc. Yet most teachers prefer ms bullshit suite for everything…

No matter what your opinion on fb is, each time I do my presentation, it’s the main thing people ask me for. To my suprise, even my students in their young 20s are using it a lot, and it’s the main platform for people over 40. Billion of people uses it everyday so I wouldn’t call it has-been. If we could bring even a small percentage of these people to the fedi, it would destabilise the economic model social media is based on. I’m not saying I like fb, I actually never have, but we can’t pretend people are over with it.

I havent tried it in the recent years. Is it coming togheter? Like with groups, events, etc?

Let’s all send sperm to the white house to contribute to the data collection. I’m willing to throw in some fresh Canadian sperm to help, and I’ll use nudes of the US first lady to jerk off! Let’s show rfk our support by literally drowning him in sperm!

I personally never had a single issue with it, speed, reliability etc. It integrates in FF and has standalone app for macOS, linux, win. android, but I remember reading some mixed reviews too.

I got surfshark for 2 years and gave it to all my relatives, it as unlimited machines.

Is it like some FOSS Tiktok alternative?

Ir’s a new world, designed for and by rich people. They plan to replace most of us with AI and automation, and want us to fight each to the death until 70% of the population is gone.

“aims to destroy the liberal economy, the only one that works for the good of all”.

Lmao. Seriously dude?

Remember the famous speech by Jesus: Involuntary lethal injection is A-Ok if it’s for homeless people, but never involuntary inject a racist-sexist-hateful right wing figure with a bullet, that’s not cool.

Seriously these libtards have 0 humor. I bet my ass they would lose their shit if he makes just one little joke about raping kids with Epstein on privilege island.

There is no way Putin doesn’t have explicit proof of donald being a pedo. He could make him suck his balls on live tv.

To be fair, who has never hang out with a few pedos and murderers. Just last week I had a war criminal for diner.

Freaking good. I love steel drum so much.

Dude, you’re the one who wants to win an argument here. I use both computer daily. I also have an Amd 5950x, an i7 6700, a 2012 MB pro at my studio that I use a couple of times week. I’m not exactly a computer illeterate, it’s part of my job to work on different systems I don’t do a ton of multitasking on the i5, no need for 42 tabs open on a media and gaming system lol, but I can assure you if there’s any lag on firefox with a few tabs open and an office suite running, it’s not enough to bother the vast majority of people. Seriously I cant count the number of times I’ve add this discussions with “gamers” that believe they know everything about computers because they play AAA and upgrade their gpus every 2 years. I’m should really do a freaking video of my i5 doing the normal stuff people do and playing a few games, just so I can stop having this discussion lol. In the end, I dont care if you dont believe me, but you really should work on optimizing your system if you can’t do normal stuff on it. Btw, if a computer is good enough for pro audio, it’s good enough for browsing and office work lol.

I suspect it’s all the OS bullshit that makes you experience laggy. Obviously having an SSD and 8gb ram is essential. I made a super light install of Win 10 on my i5 750, years ago, and any office works is still 100% smooth on it. Even editing and mixing audio is not much different than on my M1 Max, I still open some old projects from time to time. I teach computer science in an audio engineering program, and I’m convinced that in the field of audio, we won the battle of computing power a very long time ago. On the other hand, for video processing, game engines, etc. it’s another story. But in the field of sound, power gains are marginal these days.

Has mentioned, I just finished It takes 2 with my nephew. Might subscribe to Gamepass to try Doom The Dark Age. Not everyone needs 4k or competition performance.
