IMO Amnesty International is perpetrating discrimination of the users of Twibright Links lightweight web browser not equipped with JavaScript and IMO Amnesty International are hypocrites: they pose as if fighting for human rights, but they themselves IMO perpetrate discrimination and censorship and Amnesty International IMO violates the basic human right to receive information.

I recommend:
1) Don't send Amnesty International any donations.
2) Tell other people about the behaviour of Amnesty International.
3) Boycott Amnesty International.

Their website consists of a grid of pictures and text. You don't need JavaScript to display that and even if you did, lack of JavaScript would just mean reduced functionality, not blocking of whole website.

This may IMO impact marginalized individuals (people living in poverty, people in developing countries, refugees, dissidents) who cannot afford to buy a powerful device with enough RAM (cf. recent RAM price crisis) to run a resource hungry web browser with JavaScript and exacerbate the digital divide.

IMO Amnesty International is joining the camp of perpetrators of digitalitarian digitatorship, where citizens are required to submit to an ever increasing amount of surveillance and tracking and required to submit to an extortion to purchase ever more expensive electronic devices.

I feel

s t r o n g c o n t e m p t

towards Amnesty International.

I normally give #AmateurRadio Licensing exams online, but today I've got a large group of people coming in person to take their exams using tablets.

I got a bunch of #Android tablets - mostly #Samsung and #AmazonFire. They're full of #bloatware and advertising at every turn. The Fire tablets also require tricks to avoid registering with Amazon. Honestly they feel as bad as Windows PCs.

It took hours to clean them up. Yuck.

Apple has many, many problems, but not this one (yet 🤞🏼).

I will never become a fan of maven.

Hey maven, just tell me where your local repository is. Oh no problem

% mvn help:evaluate -Dexpression=settings.localRepository -q -DforceStdout

And the wonderful output is:

[INFO] [stdout] /home/harald/.m2/repository

And I am sure [INFO] [stdout] are not part of what I actually wanted to know. In fact it couldn't be more useless in the output.🤦‍♀️ 🙂‍↔️

And for added insult, running this burns 5 CPU seconds. This is abysmal.

Microsoft's "Fix" for Windows 11: Flowers After the Beating

Microsoft spent four years stuffing Windows 11 with ads, forced Copilot integrations, and bloatware, now they want applause for promising to remove it.

Löschen von #Bloatware (Werbe-Apps & Datenanalyse Apps) auf Android Handys:

Heute habe ich den "Universal Android Debloater GUI" *1 ausprobiert.

➡️ Das Tool hat auf dem Testhandy mit einem Klick diese 31 #Bloatware Apps deinstalliert:

⚠️ Ich kann es sehr empfehlen, falls du individuelle Töne beibehalten willst, kann "com.google.android.soundpicker" weiterhin sinnvoll sein.

🏃‍➡️ Ich habe mit adb devices vorher geprüft, ob das Handy mit dem Windows Testrechner eine Verbindung aufbaut. adb in der neusten Version gibt es hier: https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools?hl=de

No, you don't need 2.7GB of frameworks for a webform that saves entries to a flat database.

What the hell have they been teaching in IT school.

@wyatt that's due to any big gains nowadays being gobbled up by #bloatware

@wyatt Yes and no.

  • Granted the #bloatware and #enshittification trend got started in the 2000s, but I'd not attribute this to #WindowsXP as major speed limit but rather people and businesses not yet being groomed into accepting that bullshit…

  • Many people still got pay-by-minute #Dialup and thus shoving updates in the 3-4 digit Megabytes was oit if the question!
