Minecraft Java is (now) a source available (I dont know if thats the right term, but new java edition versions are now completely deobfuscated.) game where anyone can either play offline or spin up their own server to play multiplayer, even with no connection to mojang’s servers. I dont think its a big concern. There’s already a mod for Java to just remove the age verification.
Also, there isnt really an alternative for a game. There are only other similiar in genre games.
Cool! No one’s surprised. Anyway. Nothing is gonna be done.
Why not just use the “lesser” organic machines instead? Oh wait.
Yes. As someone in High School my peers have no idea whats happening while using a computer and none of them hate that they need to install a bajillion apps for the dumbest stuff. They just do it and keep the apps, even if they legit use it once a year.
Basically none of them know what a folder is, that there are actual files inside their phone/computer. When I’m doing tech support I can’t say “open the files app/file explorer and go to x folder” I need to hold their hand through it all “take your mouse here on this icon, click on this, drag and drop this here…” and silently facepalm when they can’t drag and drop… Or I make them press keyboard shortcuts that does it for them. Many of them refer to any kind of sideloading/piracy as “installing an apk/installing as an apk” even on iPhones and computers.
I really really believe that mine and the following generations are substantially more tech illiterate than previous ones. Like of course they dont all need to be tech savvy but my dad or my 50 year old teachers know how to open folders or drag and drop and I can just say it as is to them and they will do it fine, maybe after a 2-3 second wait. Can’t do that to my peers. They exclusively know how to “use” phones to scroll the social medias, take photos, text and such.
All of these are pretty “enthusiast/tinkerer” stuff. Some rando that doesnt use these also won’t be touching servo or ladybird basically ever. I think they would get adapted pretty fast for use among “us”.
Also, even though everyone is probably aware of it, Ladybird.
In my experience, no if properly debloated.
I was talking about DDG because I thought you were talking about DDG in the last part. I dont think you can turn off AI completely on Google.
You can choose how often you want the AI Overwiew to appear! It like asks you the first time you get one in a small pop up. I still think they should instead work on “highlighting relevant text from a website” like how google used to do. It was so much better.
Bing gets shat on too much. I used it for a while a couple years ago and other than the usual microslop shadyness it was a completely fine search engine and the search results were fine.

I interpret “up %150” as + %150
What a sad world.
If it were 9 that would just be e-wasteful. 7-8 is the sweet spot.
Okay Xi Jinping
He is the single human with the most manufacturing knowledge in the world, after all.
This will never stop being funny
Wow! I had checked these guys out a long while ago. It seems they’ve gotten a fresh coat of paint. I should revisit it. Maybe convince my friends to switch…
