Harris delivered a ‘masterclass’ debate. Will it change the race?
  • Because voting has very limited choice and a winner takes all mechanism. Ob-fucking-viously the candidates should be better, but not voting won't make that change. Trump elected will just make this worse.

    Voting is harm reduction.

    If you want to make things better and promote your own idealised society, get involved, donate to causes you consider to be up to your standards. But even then getting involved and convincing future candidates will be much harder if Trump is elected than if it's Harris.

  • That's not going to happen within the lifetime of the batteries of the trains though.

  • But even in that case it's 10x better to have more frequent, cheaper diesel trains than having insanely expensive and heavy battery trains.

  • Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative?

  • Pavel Durov arrested in France over allowing untrammelled unmoderated criminality on Telegram
  • French law has somewhat strict laws on how quickly you need to react (take it down, and keep all logs/account info for law enforcement) if law enforcement tells you some account is used for terrorism/pedo stuff. Pretty sure Telegram simply never complied with these laws.

  • Resistance is futile
  • What we have today masquerading as Star Trek is cheap, low effort garbage that tries to make up for it by wasting its budget on as much off the shelf CGI sparkles that can be thrown at

    Strange new worlds is good though. And it's "true trek". You know, with more than 1 character doing all the things. A full diverse crew with diverse skills working together to solve issues and having fun.

    After Discovery and Picard, it's really refreshing. And even though it's reusing old characters, it's not in your face constantly the nostalgia.

  • Gearbox founder says Epic Games Store hopes were “misplaced or overly optimistic”
  • A lower cut. 30% revenue cut means we pay more than necessary for games and we also miss out on some indie games that cannot be profitable with such a large cut.

    Second Photo Alleged to Show JD Vance in Drag Posted Online
  • That first one looked like a guy dressing as a woman for a costume party or something

    That's... what drag is

  • To any devs of a new Lemmy app... don't hardcode your app's strings!
  • How do you deal with the fear that contribution in languages you don't know could be malicious/offensive? This is something that would scare me when reviewing contributions adding new languages

  • I'm French, so when building any GUI stuff I just tend to start from the beginning with both French and English languages, that way I have a reason for doing this from the start. I'm thinking I should also add Spanish, so that I can keep my admetedly low skills in Spanish.

  • Qwant Maps, et après ?
  • Maps.me c'est une application que tu installe sur ton téléphone. Cartes.app c'est sur navigateur.

    D'ailleurs plutôt que Maps.me je recommande Organic Maps. C'est par les créateurs original de Maps.me, basé sur la version open source.

  • WhatsApp has MITM on the server side which is how Facebook scans your messages for targeted advert

    You shouldn't make claims like this when there is no evidence for it.

    Signal which (unless they changed something with the profiles thing) was always P2P E2E

    Signal has never been P2P.

  • Mullvad VPN or Proton VPN?

  • Dark mode by default?

    Hi,

    Since a couple of days, setting the theme to "browser default" doesn't respect the actual browser light or dark theme and is always dark, which is very annoying and makes it harder to read.

    How can I get it back to light mode when the browser is configured in light mode?

    Anyone fails to launch the Thunderbird Flatpak 115

    I'm on Arch linux + sway and running flatpak run org.mozilla.Thunderbird just hangs. I have reset to the default permissions in flatseal.

    Anyone has the same issue?
