Well that wasn't what I expected had happened to neofetch.
  • Well this sucks ;-;

    Time to uninstall it and use fastfetch from now

  • UK has worst rate of child alcohol consumption in world, report finds
  • No shit tbh, most of us UK folks often have our first drunk experience when we’re like in our early to mid teens and the normalisation and acceptance of alcohol has definitely impacted this. It’s kinda like most ppl don’t see anything wrong with it, despite giving kids alcohol can literally cause issues due to it.

    Quite a different case on my behalf though as I was raised pretty strict in my household and wasn’t allowed any alcohol until in my mid teens due to how much alcoholism ran in the family and my parents being scared due to that plus the normalisation of it too, though didn’t prevent drinking outside of home with those really horrid k-cider cans and me taking alcohol from the fridge that they rarely drank (except beer and I couldn’t take it out otherwise shit would happen and it would be bad) and going out with friends with it.

  • Where on the spectrum are you?
  • I’m deffo a doggo frr no inbetween >.<

  • UK ministers considering banning sale of smartphones to under-16s
  • LOL as if that’s gonna stop them from owning smartphones, teenagers don’t even have that much money to even pay for it to begin with cuz they’re school kids, so it’s always the parents that pay for it anyways. This proposed legalisation is literally not going to do anything.

  • Gollum Rule
  • Kill it with fire

  • Anyway to rip high-quality from Apple Music? Or Spotify?
  • You can’t download FLACs from this site but I’ve been using spotifydown.com for quite sometime now and the audio quality imo has been super solid so far imo. Really has helped me massively in terms of relying less on Spotify since I can just rip the song from there and therefore have my own copy of the tracks/albums etc.

    I’ve also used Psst too as an alternative to the current spotify client on my laptop and that’s been also great too, much more lightweight than the main client, but unfortunately premium is a must if you want to fully use it though ;-;

  • Rule
  • Gock

  • Someone silently made an open source GPU!
  • Let’s hope this enables other ppl to start making their own ones and therefore, decentralise the market esp from Nvidia

  • Google will delete data collected from private browsing
  • Wow, it took them long enough lol

    They’re still gonna spy on you regardless if they start deleting your data or not lso makes no difference either way lol

  • this will probably be me in the morning
  • Mood when I wake up for uni ;~;

  • What are your best non corporate email alternatives?
  • I should think so, though honestly I have not gotten any spam from protonmail/tutanota ever since I switched over from gmail years back and I’ve only gotten emails that’s I’ve signed up to or that I know are relevant to me aka important emails.

    Services like gmail survive by spying on your emails in relation to also having ads on their services, hence why you get so many emails and junk you don’t remember signing up on the promotions tab, despite gmail is supposed to be well renowned for “anti-spam” whilst also not being totally private whatsoever cuz of it. It’s all just a cover tbh esp with top free mail providers.

  • What are your best non corporate email alternatives?
  • I use both protonmail and tutanota atm. Had good experiences so far tbh! But for those I know that are truly dedicated to the foss lifestyle, most I know either self host their email service or use something like posteo/distroot. Some I know use riseup as well but I think it’s propertiary I think but have a huge emphasis on privacy though and being very anti corporate.

  • Maybe consider matrix instead
  • People honestly need to start using alternatives to Discord fr esp as the app just keep getting more and more shittier in use as time goes on, plus nitro and the fact you gotta pay for themes etc is such a scam tbh

  • Do you have any recommendations for good budget wireless earbuds?
  • I heard Taotronics earbuds are supposed to be super good esp for audio quality at a decently affordable price as well in comparison to other affordable ear buds for that price.

  • Discord is adding adverts "in the coming week"
  • Ewwwwwwwww Revolt here we go!

  • No one should be proud of where they were born
  • So I shouldn’t proud of my personal identity and my roots? Which literally plays a huge part of who I am today and especially, where I was brought up cuz without it, I wouldn’t be me and I wouldn’t have an identity without it.

    But ok then go off……..

  • Ohio high school English teacher, Jennifer Ruziscka, resigns after OnlyFans account discovered
  • If maybe teachers were paid a lot better, many teachers wouldn’t be forced to do things like this but it does seem the teacher is enjoying what’s she’s doing atm, so I would say that’s a big win tbh.

    Still, Teachers are way underpaid for what they do tbh and get way too much shit for the things they have to put through.

  • Anti-Corporate Movement
  • Looks really interesting, just subscribed!

  • It's more interesting when self-directed
  • And there’s me, I found both really interesting at school and throughly enjoyed it way more than geography, which was the case with me at school, but studying at home has been far more interesting in comparison o.o
