vanveen, to piracy in My HD is chocking but I don't want to throw away culturally precious mataerial (mainly movies)

thanks, I’ve never thought of it, but the won’t never do such things, that would have seen as ‘peculato’. Here in Italy where corruption is a major problems that is an hyperlegislation to avoid it. Peculato would be, I believe, in English embezzlement

vanveen, to asklemmy in Howard Zinn people's history of America, I'm reading it at the moment, is there any alternative?

That makes sense

vanveen, to asklemmy in why is it so difficult select text from posts?

I am using Voyager, which compared to the previous client I was using is remarkable, beside this and other features that don’t work in an intuitive way or maybe don’t work at all.

vanveen, to asklemmy in The desire to build a self-defense kit from Google and the Internet as it is today

Unfortunately I do need, there’s a lot of garbage, but also a lot of superinteresting stuff and so fare there’s no any solid alternative.

vanveen, to asklemmy in The desire to build a self-defense kit from Google and the Internet as it is today

thanks a lot, very very kind. A curiousity: why google translate and not deepL that seems way more accurate than the previous?

vanveen, to asklemmy in About Google and Degoogling in schools

Public school in general are place out of time and out place. The majority of people, the princpals do not have a clue about anyting pertaining these fields. Most of the teachers don’t feel the privacy issue as a major problem and often talk to each other and with students via what’s app. It is a mess, a big one. No strategy, no plan whatsoever. Not even the need to learn and become slightly litterate about this matter. what’s look cool and American, siliconish valley is right and felt as modern.

vanveen, to asklemmy in why is it so difficult select text from posts?

I use Voyager, but there’s not any option to select text but cumbersome(see below). I just can’t heavy-tap, select and copy. And even when I do that operation of tapping high on the left hand side of the screen and little menu appears, I tap on select text, and sometimes I can select only the title of the article, not the text.

thanks a lot man, this is really helpful: veyr understandable. (first time that I read in clear letter that this kind of technologiy is designed primarly to share information. And it is a shame that here in Europe laws don’t force corporation to build technology that has as a goal the privacy first. I am passionate in literature and Cultural studies, thus if we were living in another world I believe I would not read this stuff, because my heart beat for humanities (in a finite and short life: reading all Cormac McCarthy’s opus for a second time it would be for me highly preferrable than learn about networks, but this is the world I live in and I am tired of these damn corporation that treat people like objects)

Sorry, but I haven’t a clue of what you are saying.

This is the main problem, the lacuna between people who can use technolgy and ppl who cant’. How do I do it?

vanveen, to asklemmy in Traffic Engineering: a help from Italy

Thanks, but I’m also looking for vidoe, articles, divulgative materiel that show alternative sustainable solutions.

vanveen, to piracy in My HD is chocking but I don't want to throw away culturally precious mataerial (mainly movies)

did not know that. Thanks a lot!

vanveen, to asklemmy in The desire to build a self-defense kit from Google and the Internet as it is today

where do I start from scratch, taking into account that English isn’t my mother tongue and Italian is? Could you point me a guide, video, something for dummies that can explain, and is authentically conceived to educate and teach to person like me who wanto to learn but 4 times out of 5 ends up with frustration for the jargon and language for initiated the is in forums often spoken?

vanveen, to asklemmy in why is it so difficult select text from posts?

I checked on f-droid and Google play and I could not find Avelon

vanveen, (edited ) to asklemmy in why is it so difficult select text from posts?

🤦‍♂️ Ok, I expected to create this mini chaos. I am not particulary acute, but I normally tend to figure out, while using a client, how to select and copy the a portion of text. In this case, before posting, I’ve tried some of the most obvious and intuitive solutions without any results, the only ones I’ve obtained where cumbersome and unsatisfaying.
I did not know existed so many app/clients for Lemmy. I’ve just tried 2 and this one, Voyager, is, I repeat, graphically very rich and beautiful, if compared with the previous and, also with Reddit is fun (the reddit client I used until it was shut down following that rascal Reddit did to the creator of RIF). I want to support Voyager because is by far the most beautiful app I’ve used among those said clients.
I’m sure there must be a most practical and elegant to selct and copy the text, I’ll find out and I’ll let you know, thanks for all your answer and the desire to help!
