  • you would think so, but somehow that never seems to be the case in practice. software has just been getting way more simplified visually while also getting way heavier with the likes of electron, GTK4, QML, etc.

    for example, gnome-calculator uses nearly 300 MB of RAM on my system. that’s significantly more memory than my entire desktop environment (trinity). in the '00s everything was plastered with glossy skeuomorphic textures, 3D animations, transparency with blur, etc. and running all these different glossy programs together on one system still left you with a smaller memory footprint than gnome’s calculator.

    we are fucked and our UIs don’t even get to be pretty anymore.



  • The next generations are going to suffer tremendously for the loss of American culture, science, industry, and empire.

    fucking insane the way you ghouls say this kinda shit so openly. your beloved “empire” falling would be a net positive for the world and the future generations that would be exploited, raped, and bombed by the US

    as for “american culture”, the only real example of that was native american culture and the US destroyed that too.


  • instilling a form of authoritarianism (trampling over what the founding fathers fought for)

    literally what could be more “authoritarian” than owning a fuckton of slaves? the founding fathers wouldn’t have liked him because by their racist, slave-owning, genocidal rapist standards, trump is too progressive.

    it would do the world a lot of good if american liberals would stop glazing these assholes and finally admit that the US itself is the problem and stop using trump as a sin-eater for centuries of genocide, imperialism, and systemic oppression.

    china, being a dictatorship of the proletariat and having an actually-working participatory democratic process, has its press in the hands of the people. western countries, being dictatorships of the bourgeoisie, have their press in the hands of a few billionaires, and somehow according to shitlibs that makes it “free and fair” lmfao
