Ikr, public transportation just gets worse and worse around here. Metro barely covers 10% of the city and is expensive, buses are incredibly unreliable. I still manage to get around without a car, but its so frustrating.

I want to, but its a desire, its not rational.

If i got it right, flatpacks gather all of the dependencies of the package and bundles them with tha package. Maybe those extra 290mb were from dependencies that you already had installed but that flatpak wanted to install another copy.

Nice mental gymnastics, but if 5 is so good, how come five five's is so bad? Who cares about the pentagon? The broad use of 5 everywhere just shows how its a banal number, how worthless it is. Now 25 is reserved for much greater things, any toddler knows it shouldnt be overused.

I think pirating scientific papers is a good thing all around. The research isnt funded by the selling of access to those papers, much on the contrary.

As a mathematician i can sure you that 5, as you have assumed, is indeed less than 25.

Doing the right thing isnt always safe... Dont get me wrong, this antiimmigration thing is disgusting, but them covering up is not a good indicator of shittiness.

Outlets shouldnt be making predictions about the future with phrases that imply certainty. Especially when accusing someone.

They were deceived? When the oulet said she lied, they were claiming to know the future. They lied.

im glad that it works for you, but my point is that we should have the right to have a non-intrusive phone just as easily as we have intrusive ones. People shouldnt be expected to learn how to unlock a bootloader, or import one of the few phone models that support these alternative roms with all security features in place. In the process of installing these roms, some people might fall into the trap of installing them from a suspicious source.

Lets clarify this.

Your principle is "The moment your opinion starts to dictate other people’s lives, it becomes invalid."

My opinion is "People should be prevented from polluting the rivers."

You say the opinion isnt dictating anything, that its our right to have clean rivers that dictates the prohibition to polluting rivers. Ok, fair, as far as the legislation isnt based on the opinions of the legislators about what should be allowed and what shouldnt. If the opinions that "using AI to judge if a suspected murderer is guilty is not good" or "people should be able to disable all 'AI assistant' features on their smartphones and not have their data constantly scanned" become popular opinions, legislature may be passed and the consequence will dictate other people's lives.

I see what you mean though that using AI or not only concerns/affects the user. But thats not as true as it may seem.
