No SA stormtroopers, no camps, no coup plot, nothing like that

These are all things that happen after the Nazis get in power which hasn’t happened yet. If you need proof about that, take a look at the us, they already started doing all of the above and are slowly ramping things up.

At the moment they are riling the people up. They try to block every change that would help the average person (not that there are a lot of those changes being done at the moment), while simultaneously blaming everything bad at any miniority group possible. They don’t have much of an actual Programm apart from black people bad and kill all trans but managed to get one third of the votes with hollow promises and beeing backed by a few of the biggest private media groups in germany.

The Verfassungsschutz (office for the protection of the constitution) considers the afd youth organization a right wing extremist group. While the afd may not be as bad as the nsdap was in its prime, half their members would wish that to be the case, so calling them nazis is fair game.

The point I’m getting at is this: When a certain percentage of the population is diagnosed with a disorder, you have to ask whether we’ve started diagnosing ordinary human existence as a disease.

Its pretty mich a known fact that autism and ADHD were a somewhat beneficial trait in our hunting and gathering era. Hypervigilance makes you really good at spotting prey or predators and unsatisfied curiosity pretty mich forces innovation over a long enough time. The side effects that make life aliving hell in modern society weren’t nearly as detrimental back then. People lived in more communal small tribes and being a bit weird didn’t mean you get cast out and left to die alone.

Over time it became less and less useful. When the industrial revolution came along and everyone was supposed to let go of their individuality to instead work 12+ hour shifts pretty much only the negatives prevailed.

So yes, we are diagnosing a normal part of human existence as a disorder because in today’s society it is one. Mind you, its not diagnosed as an illness, something with a cause and potentially a treatment, its specifically diagnosed as a disorder, something that disrupts normal physical or mental function. It doesn’t really matter which genetic marker is the reason for your specific case of serotonin deficite that leads to the inability to concentrate and keeps your brain on 120% to compensate. The symptoms and their treatment are the same either way.

Each banking app usually has a separate password you have to set and every transaction requires some form of authorisation.

You could make an argument about security concerns in regards to biometric scanners in phones, but short passwords are a universal thing for people that dont care.

Yes. What’s also true is that sometimes they must be. You will disagree until you find the exception.

No, there should never be any reason to connect these versions to the internet.

If you are talking about legacy software in a corporate setting, then a vm should do the trick 99% of the time. If that legacy software needs an internet connection (which is already questionable), then you bridge only the specific port it needs to the connected interface. If that doesn’t work either, then you get a separate PC explicitly for that software and disallow pretty much all other connections.

If you are talking about private use, then the only thing keeping you on a windows version older than 10 is your unwillingness to upgrade. Its understandable, but it doesn’t change the fact that these versions have massive security holes and shouldn’t be used anymore.

Asking an existing userbase for any kind of change will pretty much always result in a no.

If the project requires minimal resources and doesn’t have a major downside, then implementing your own version before asking is fine.

They didn’t serve a bunch of ex alcoholics a full bottle of whisky, all they did is make you scroll twice on your mouse wheel.

You’re using Wayland

It works fine for everything else. Besides, X11 doesn’t even support two monitors with different refresh rates.

You fell for the superhuman refresh rate hype

And you fell for the good old “humans can only see in 35Hz”.

Good for you. I still can’t get Wayland to support more than one 144Hz display.

Everyone already hates what is coming but its happening regardless

This is wrong and that’s the main issue. Most people don’t hate it, they are mostly indifferent and some may even think its a good thing. Most won’t notice any difference.

They actively thank Google for keeping their entire location data (maps timeline), why should it be any different with microslop keeping their files “safe”
