Totally fair. I personally think Al Jazeera has been a positive force, spreading the word on the Gaza Genocide, the Sudanese massacres & conflict, and their unapologetic leftism. And the Qatar government hosted peace talks between Israel and Palestinian groups. I have never heard that BBC presenter thing though.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Zohran Mamdani Just Inherited the NYPD Surveillance State
1·6 days agoFast and free buses, free childcare, and paused rent, whilst taxing the rich and defunding the police are socialist policies. He also is someone who calls himself a socialist, so people voting for him are at the very least, okay with a leader calling himself a socialist.
sure lmao
Hey could you elaborate please?

Open Source@lemmy.ml•What are the best ways to be part of Open Source Community and the Movement To Grow It?
13·6 days agoUse opensource software, donate/contribute if you can, post about opensource software, and if you have to pay money for software, pay companies which fund opensource software (Like steam, my beloved)

4·6 days agoI think going full guns blazing with communist policies will simply not work in America, without a bloodbath. Zohran Mamdani is currently an unapologetic socialist, with great policies that will make NY great, and show the rest of the world what socialism really is.

217·6 days agoYou know, as a leftist, you don’t always have to be so nhilistic. Mamdani, is a socialist, who showed that in the biggest turnout, in the biggest city, in the richest country in the world, socialist policies are now popular.
He will at the very least, make millions of peoples lives better, even if it’s marginal, and at the most, will show America and the rest of the world what policies they need.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Finally switched my fiancee to bazzite, fuck me was it a trial
2·8 days agoWeirdly enough linuxmint with lutris + steam works fine for me. I followed this guide in order to figure out lutris configurations. Don’t download protonupqt though, just download through lutris.
They believe any data given to google or other data collecting sites isn’t that intrusive, or if it is, won’t be read by a person etc. Its a nihilistic philosophy, that “They already have it all anyway.”
Macbook/Linux user here: People (And organisations/governments) who are reasonably skilled with technology will understand that on hardware which can’t use windows 11, and is stuck with windows 10 without security updates need an alternative operating system. When institutions switch to linux, they will likely contribute to the opensource project, and overall bring the user base numbers up, which will make more software developers add support for linux.
But while this should happen, it might work in microsoft’s favour, (Like when Netflix stopped password sharing) meaning people, who are used to windows will just buy new windows 11 machines, overall increasing microsoft’s company value. Microsoft also supports the Israel military during the genocide, and Bill Gates personally supports Trump and had close ties with Epstein, so it would be best if the general public does an accident, or purposeful boycott. Personally I buy secondhand stuff and put linux on it, if you want new stuff either buy a mac, or buy one of those new linux machines from Lenovo?
Hey nobody cares if you block them. Do people have to be so aggressive on the internet lmao?
