Interesting article on how people, once they express an opinion on Social Media, will defend that opinion forever because they feel that if they change their minds they will “lose face”.
This is something I’ve talked about before. We have to encounter those we disagree with respectfully and humbly, both because that is how we might change other people’s minds, but also because we might be wrong 🙂
The Linux Gamer ranks operating systems. I loved his ranking of Windows 10. Though I don't think your reaction was intense enough 😜
No I won't tell you what it was. Gotta watch the video!
Disagree on rankings of the mobile OS's. I would have moved Android down one, iOS up one.
Loved the video. Great job, @gbryant

I bought and plugged Echo in tonight
And she hears every whisper of each quiet conversation
She streams a song, then books a flight
Her LEDs reflect the stars that guide me toward salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words to reclaim privacy
He turned to me as if to say
"Foolish boy, it's listening to you!"

The power to stop someone you hate from speaking online can be used to stop speech by someone you love, or your own speech, EFF's Cindy Cohn writes in Wired: https://www.wired.com/story/when-limiting-online-speech-to-curb-violence-we-should-be-careful/
"[The Librem 5] will also have a removable battery, a feature that Apple long ago abandoned in the interest of svelte devices."
User empowerment is the best tool to curb online harassment.
