“Most of us hate microsoft” is honestly a pretty bold claim. They’re just a company that makes software. The vast majority of the world’s Linux users–which is to say, professionals who build or manage software that runs in Linux–don’t care about them one way or another.

This sub might have an ideological skew, but you still don’t know what people in here think about Microsoft.

“Nestle says slavery reporting requirements could cost customers.”

Not to be a joyless communist, but if we can’t have chocolate without slavery, we shouldn’t have chocolate.

I bought my Powerball ticket while sitting on the toilet because it's always a crapshoot.

I've mentioned this but I'm gonna make a real post.

If you are setting up Windows 11, select "English (World)" as your language (English Europe also works), and you will have NONE of the third party bloatware installed.

No Candy Crush, no Netflix, just the first party apps

Please do share this info with anyone who may be setting up Windows soon

2-clicks to install Windows 11/10 without the third-party bloatware

You can block bloatware/partner/advertisement apps from cluttering up your fresh Windows installation by changing just one setting during the installation.

So far with #threads there is that concern with privacy, which is to be expected with a #meta app. But I wonder what impact it will have on the #fediverse once it is connected to it.

This place is flawed in many ways, because human beings are flawed. The beauty of this place is that we are all shaping it together. All the discussions about social issues, defederation, UX issues, missing alt texts - even shitposts about Twitter and Bluesky - they are part of building and defining this together. There’s no company that makes the decisions. The discussions might be hard and annoying and not everyone wants to get involved, but we still earn 100% of the rewards together.
