I'm going to separate off this post in the interest of not contributing to the problem I'm critiquing, but re:lrb - I think the best thing techies can do when someone's venting about some tech bullshit is to agree with their frustrations, offer to give recommendations or advice if wanted, and then get out of the way. Not everyone who's venting is looking for solutions, or in a place where they could evaluate and implent them. Flooding notes or inboxes with unsolicited advice is unhelpful and people are right to complain about it, especially when that advice is technically complicated.
When making your own posts for a general audience or responding to solicitations for advice, imo the best thing is to lead with simple, easy-to-implement solutions with as few required steps or new knowledge as possible. You can give more complex advice or further reading, but very carefully delineate those from the easy steps. In any case explain simply what you mean and avoid jargon as much as possible. Take great care when recommending specific products; a recommendation that won't fit into someone's workflow or which later turns out to be untrustworthy is unhelpful and hurts your credibility.
Anyone interested in making educational content or giving solicited advice (a noble goal!) should look into the plain langauge and easy read formats. They're a set of recommendations and goals designed to communicate effectively and accessibly to general audiences.
sometimes i think i don't have any useful skills and then i remember that tech literacy is an increasingly rare skill. i've heard stories from tech support people of really computer illiterate customers saying "my computer is frozen!!" and it turns out the mouse wasn't plugged in or turned on or whatever. meanwhile i'm over here looking up error codes and running windows debugger because my pc bluescreens after running for less than ten minutes. then when i finally contact a computer repair person, i tell him the error codes and my diagnosis, and he basically confirms my findings. maybe i should do tech support or computer repair.
90% of my tech literacy comes from learning to mod the Sims 4 in middle school and I'm honestly proud of that

This thing I'm writing, the tech shit, all that. There is an end goal. It's to help people.
I love writing it, this was and still is a huge passion project of mine (college been beating my ass but I still write it when I find time), but words only go so far, words aren't going to help anyone out, actions do.
So like, fuck it man. If you want to get onto Linux, if you want some information about emulating, if you just want to hear about some alternatives for big tech practices and products, shoot me a DM, email me, add me on Disc, whatever.
The end goal is to get a website set up where people can hit me up about this, but for now this is a start.
Yes, I have made "AI art"
It was only once and it was the most unrewarding, meaningless slop with errors that I would avoid with my own lack of skill. It was for a single post and it was so dull I wouldn't recommend the process or the result to anyone because it's just a theft model to generate something in the ballpark of what you prompt it to do.
oh my god I just had the wildest tiktok interaction. basically:
them: google automatically uses ai and theres nothing we can do :(
me: there are browsers that don't use ai! :)
them: i dont know how to switch browsers
me: uninstall old browser, install new browser
them: im a visual person, that is too technical for me i dont know what any of that means im not doing that
i dont even mean this in a rude way or anything but like. I have to know how this person navigates life. How did they get tiktok on their phone? Do they never install any apps? Or never uninstall them? I wonder if they have to watch a tutorial to change their ringtone. I wonder if I tell them they can charge their phone in the microwave if they would believe me.
