USA = We are the only good guys.

Nobody but the gov itself and right-wing nutjobs is saying that.

It is in fact possible to criticize China, Russia, Iran AND the US at the same time

They are all complacent in crimes and human rights violations in one form or another

It might have to do with the aggressiveness that I block ADs, I have ad blocking at the device and network levels. Since I also have a way to over-powered pfSense server I pretty much don't care about all those giant dnsbl lists that have the "Performance hit warning" lmao

I've tried that before, was I rewarded with peaceful well placed ADs? Hell no, I was inundated with full page auto-playing monstrosities so fuck that.

Maybe if it's a small time website I'll just pay with donations or a subscription, but fuck these big time conglomerate owned websites

 

Side note: Does anybody have an effective way of blocking this stupid Admiral BS, I've gotten it to a point where it consistently gives me the bypass option but I'd prefer it to go away entirely

That's kinda what Bluesky has with their "moderation lists" or whatever it's called. They have an entire dedicated MAGA one that blocks all MAGA accounts that join Bluesky automatically for whoever is subscribed to it

There's also CUDIMM which one manufacturer is tauting that they'll be releasing a 10000 MT/s soon after having dropped a 9000 model a couple months ago

Well did you file a report with your safety officer‽

. It’s not a walled garden in any way, shape, or form.

MacOS gatekeeper is the first step they're taking towards it, it's not yet a walled garden, but they want it to be and have a plan to get there.

It’s a full, true UNIX desktop OS.

If that were true, then root should be absolute, but it isn't on MacOS. Between SIP and other new "For your security and protection" features, root has taken a back seat and has been completely neutered.

If a company can't get their proprietary software working because of arbitrary restrictions, they're going to buy a Windows device next time.

They already have something in place for that, it's called the Apple Developer Enterprise Program

They've got a plan to build the wall around MacOS and they're executing it, it's not going to be an overnight thing, but it's coming

don't recognise the walled garden problem, because I'm on macOS, where software walled gardens do not exist

Really, so you haven't noticed that root hasn't really been root lately? Or that it's been getting harder to install software from outside the MacOS app store with each update? They're not stupid, they're not going to do it all at once, they're doing it bit by bit.

Mark my words, there will be a day in the short term when you go to install something outside the MacOS app store and you'll get a "Can't do that without a paid Apple dev account" error, at best

It's also confusing to single out macOS (which has better third-party repos than Windows by absolute leagues), when iOS is right there.

Once again, iOS being a walled garden is an improvement to what was before and I'm not advocating for Windows in any sense of the word
