Pudding.cool is my favourite

No worries haha

If there’s one thing I disagree with it’s your generalisation of Lemmy, unlike Reddit or other centralised social media, there is no overarching culture and ethos that you can sum up in one specific description. Because of its federated nature, you cannot predict the mentality of Lemmy users, every instance is its own thing, and there may be so many reasons why someone would use Lemmy

That’s super interesting, I do remember being taught as a kid how to use Google Image search (circa 2005), Gimp for photo manipulation around the age of 12 in 2008, we had technology classes with electronics, technical drawing, even some plastic bending machine, and light programming (made a robot figurine execute recorded moves in sequence)

I do wonder if it’s still the case in my own country

Computer literacy is weird because it feels like millennials were born into it and had to learn how to use the tools available… Then said tools were made a lot simpler with a lot less control over them, and Gen Z was born into apps and saas and did not have the chance to properly learn

We generally only taught a single generation to master our tech, I think it’s scary, but also I trust the Zoomers to figure it out, they’re creative

Oh you’re 100% right, i just typed the number I had to pay, without accounting for inflation and the true cost

La Federal Trade Commission (FTC) accuse Adobe d’une infraction au Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act de 2010 qui interdit aux commerçants d’imposer des frais sans que les clients ne soient clairement informés.

Peut être le début de la fin de leur monopole dégueu

Avec plaisir !

This is the important paragraph on the article

Because Proton has no venture capital investors, we can take this additional step to secure the future. Swiss foundations do not have shareholders, so Proton will no longer be dependent upon the goodwill of any particular person or group of persons. Instead, Swiss foundations and their board of trustees are legally obligated to act in accordance with the purpose for which they were established, which, in this case, is to defend Proton’s original mission. As the largest voting shareholder of Proton, no change of control can occur without the consent of the foundation, allowing it to block hostile takeovers of Proton, thereby ensuring permanent adherence to the mission.

Didn’t it also happen in Lost Ark ?

I don’t know why Gabe Newell would die before 75

Oh you’re right thanks for the correction !

Not good enough looking at the votes haha

I keep asking for peace (and loss of their territories i waged war on) but they won’t cooperate 😭😭😭😭😭

Ohhh this is going to be awesome

When I was thinking about it, I came to the conclusion that sports that don’t require confrontation should just evolve and give up on the competitiveness. Swimming, javelin, whatever shouldn’t have the winner be the best out of every contestant, we should celebrate each and everyone’s force of will to better themselves first. We already have that with high jumping, where individual performance is rated Vs their height goal.

Give up competitiveness in sports where it isn’t needed, and you no longer have people melting down because someone has more muscular mass, or a different gender than expected.

Give up competitiveness in sports and you return to a celebration of the human body and it’s physical prowess, instead of childishly fighting for who’s best.

Obviously this doesn’t work in football, or sports with direct confrontation, that i haven’t found a solution yet, maybe during the next shower ?

As others have said, you need to take a step back, and find some rest

I’ll also add a thought : creativity comes from your lived experiences, the more you discover new ideas, exchange with new people, understand new cultures, the more matter you’ll have at your disposal to pick from when looking for creative solutions to whatever you’re working on. Go on holidays, visit a museum, buy a concert ticket, the more you put yourself out there to be available for new experiences, the more creative you’ll be.
