  • Linux Mint as the baby makes no sense. That would actually be CachyOS or MX Linux at this point.

    edit

    I didn’t interpret the age of the people matching the user of the distro. I matched the person in the graphic as the perceived maturity of the project itself… not the user. This is why I say to me Linux Mint doesn’t make sense as the baby… MX Linux and CachyOS have been adopted more recently than before.




  • The logic is stupid. There are adults that are just as addicted to social media and the Internet as much as any kid would be. What changes once they reach 18?

    more ranting

    The real issue isn’t being tackled or solved. This is yet another thing where we’re trying to solve the symptom but not the cause. The real issue is that the software or the platforms don’t take into consideration, by design, the well-being of the user.

    We’re being forced to do what these stupid corporations like Meta, Google, Reddit, OpenAI et al aren’t doing already but should actually be doing. They don’t give AF because their whole objective is to make sure you are addicted and they can then harvest your data, feed you scams, etc.

    This is pretty much like how the big corporations push the blame on the consumer for wasting plastic even though it’s the fucking corps choosing to sell their products that way in the fist place.

    If software was designed with a kill-switch that could enforce better habits, this all wouldn’t be necessary. All we’re doing is delaying the inevitable and forcing them to seek alternatives that will be abused in the same manor social media or the Internet would be.

    Why the fuck do they still sell cigarettes despite everybody knowing full well that it causes severe health issues?!

    Can’t make this shit up!!!

    P.S. - If the schools wish to put in place this kind of ban, then they have the authority to do so. Fine. That doesn’t fix the broken education system. Yes, it is broken.

    That’s kind of how I’m looking at it. Idk why people are trying to claim it so hard to being racism. What if the person passing by is Japanese American and they actually can’t read Japanese? Like what do you call it then? Japan has been known to actually be racist (e.g. against Naomi Osaka) but this example, on a matter of technicality, I cannot confidently say (without bias) that this is outright racism. (even though it could be)

    Legit don’t get why people are downvoting. Discrimination is literally a word. WTF people. FFS
