I don't understand the difficulty. My kid who used Windows for at least 7 years installed Ubuntu and just started using it. Why is this difficult for people? I helped him boot the computer from a USB stick and that's it.
Here is the app store, install programs from here.
Ok.
Why does it feel like every Nordic country is much better then Sweden these days.
Google is not showing the web anymore, it's showing it's own content now, stolen from the web.
People don't even leave their site now with Ai results, that Google controls and can modify how they want.
Not sure what to do about this. The general public will be completely lost in Google.
Problem is that companies are using them for all scenarios. It's often their entire tech stack now, with kubernetes.
It's similar to the object oriented hype that came before it, where developers had to write all their programs in a way so they could be extended and prepared for any future changes.
Everything became complex and difficult to work with. And almost none of those programs were ever extended in any significant way where object oriented design made it easier. On the contrary, it made it far more difficult to understand the program since you had to know which method was called in which object due to polymorphism when you looked at the code. You had to jump around like crazy to see what code was actually running.
Now with kubernetes, it's all about making the programs easier to scale and easier to develop for the developers, but it shifts the complexity to the infrastructure needed to support the networking requirements.
All these programs now need to talk over the network instead of simply communicating in the same process. And with that you have to think about failure scenarios, out of order communication, missing messages, separate databases and data storage for different services etc.
I work at a medium size company with hundreds of Linux servers and none of them get updated. Because it's more important that they keep running as they are than to have the latest updates. I bet this is very common for most companies.
They may even save every Google meet meeting for all we know. They may train their AI on how our faces look in meetings.
Nothing is too creepy for Google.
Yeah I guess. It's very shocking to me, but people have spoken...
Wow that's so insanely stupid of Apple. Think he wouldnt notice?
The real reason is because it's expensive to get a short and good .com name and also because it's very corporate and boring.
I think Lemmy.world should not have 99.999% of communities.
We can have one fediverse community but it should not be on Lemmy.world. It's already extreamly centralized with almost all users. It should have all communities as well?
I feel the same about every other duplicate community. Because i actually care about having a decentralized fediverse.
Haha why the fuck would anyone do this for some social media? :)
Oh, permission to leave the plantation, thank you boss sir.
Same old slave owner personalities.
