@Keltounet @hywan I watched my mother progressively (and completely) lose the ability to use her iMac during her final decade because Apple kept f*cking around with the Mac OS X user interface, the way Mail worked, the colour of the window maximize/minimize buttons, and stuff that probably looked trivial to a 30-something UI designer but was deeply disruptive to an 80 something with impaired memory. And by losing that access, she lost touch with friends (via email).
@simonmic I like how the site is even providing a manual on how to cook the books

@BartoszMilewski @aleks we should celebrate it instead! Aren't we're survivors, after all?

@reidrac@social.sdf.org being up to date isn't a thing I've seen often. Most of my "family IT" is running old distros, even *if* they don't ignore their updates.
We can go and check vulnerability databases for an 5 y.o. browsers that people do run now and will continue to run for 5 years more.
@reidrac@social.sdf.org more containment layers over particularly common attack vectors? 🤷♀️
`ssh -D` is a real life-saver though.
@reidrac@social.sdf.org what about snaps pissed you off?
I had a fight with a totally flatpacked distro and it was awful beyond any horrors I had with snaps. Basically impossible to do anything in a terminal.
@cwebber@octodon.social would you be shocked if we had opinions on electricity?
@selfsame @everytoilet is biohacking gone too far?..
@doragasu @reidrac@social.sdf.org those security updates are free for personal use, but yeah.
@dpiponi Chromecast is a mess too. I wonder what's so difficult in there, so major corporations with literal billions invested in their stuff can't handle it.
@Danc A horrifying thought of HP BrainJet washing fluid appears...
@cwebber@octodon.social y is down/up 
@reidrac@social.sdf.org You can be surprised! People have fun watching very *different* things. Watching bread getting baked certainly has something to it.
