As someone who mostly uses fedoverse not the big tech apps, I gave a shot to it, but had hard time finding what to subscribe. When browsing all it was just porn.

Flying cars is a fucking stupid idea.
-constant fear of some drunk driver flying 300kmph to your house -only useful for medium length journey
-has to be heavily controlled for safety, meaning you can only fly specific routes
-airspace of anything important is no fly zone, like airports, government buildings, ports, basically every city
-needs fossile fuel to fly, more than a normal ICE car
-needs designated landing area
-needs city planning to be centered around them
-unlimited potential for terrorists
-drivers would need specific license and training
Whoever is unironically shipping flying cars is a fucking moron and you can't prove me otherwise, no matter if it technically works or not.

Get-AppxPackage -all NAME_OF_THE_APPX | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers
Remove any remnants files by taking ownership of the system folder app is in (it is trusted installer by default) and then you can delete those. With something like edge or cortana it can be bit more difficult, so you gonna have to google for those. Cortana is pretty similar, but it's appx package name is something other than Cortana, but luckily that will be easier in the future.

I respect that, even though I really don't enjoy their games so I probably won't 😆
I buy most of my content, steam mostly for games, have spotify, buy music from bandcamp for DJ sets, at least my favorites, have family netflix, HBO, disney +, although I don't use those as much since they are mostly full of crap. Sometimes I even buy/rent a movie if it is not available in those and I can't find any torrent, or just out of convenience. I produce music and buy all my audio software (ableton and fuckton of plugins) because I don't want to deal with the hassle of using pirated versions. I buy ebooks every now and then too, although with that I also admittely pirate some, especially when the author is dead, in which case I really don't feel any guilt for pirating it. I also use patreon often and support creators that way.
I still think piracy needs to be an option, so streaming services can't have their way and we are just forced to use their enshittified platforms. I avoid it, because I understand not everything can be open source, and nothing get's done without revenue. I don't pirate from small authors/creators.
All the while musicians get basically fucking nothing from huge streaming services profiting from their labor. Series get cancelled left and right despite good reception because they were not profitable enough, although still profitable, because netflix is only interested making next big hit. Games are filled with microtransactions and kernel level tracking (anti cheat), forced online features in single player game and sometimes games one bought are just made unavailable, like with old mobile games (case in point, dead space mobile). Professional software is often moved to predatory subscription models and paywalled updates to the software, like Avid, Waves.
And people still cirlejerk about piracy being the worst thing to intellectual property ever. Problem isn't piracy, problem is small creators are payed so little from listens/views/whatever that the can barely get by, and have to make alternate source of income via patreon or some other stuff. Piracy won't even make a dent in that.
Luckily in every category some people/companies are pushing back but all of this is just case in point why we need piracy. When I get around releasing music/games, I don't mind piracy at all, might even put my own tunes on pirate sites out of spite. Current intellectual property laws are fucking joke and only benefit the largest creators in their respective fields.
Original deus ex. Yeah I'm sure the story is very good. But gameplay is just not enjoyable to me no matter how many times I try. Combat is annoying unless you put all skill points to X gun skill, then it is boring. In stealth I have no feel how visible I am and gep gun is annoying to use.
I have tried to enjoy it at least 5 times since I like the new ones but at this point I give up. And yeah I tried with mods and shit.
Se on ihan totta.
Amen, just unsubbed so many communities due to too much tankie shit getting on my feed.
I am also very left leaning, but so frustrated with the state of left, with so many subdivisions of leftist still stuck on 20th century, tankies being the worst example.
Fuck that CEO, and I don't mean the nice grindr way.

For me it was using command line (linux/vim/sql/powershell) at work, for same mundane tasks over and over. Due to that, I started remembering commands so I didn't have to look it up, and was more comfortable trying something I hadn't done before as well.
