Not sure what he expected. I commend all the protesting, but we all saw how reddit responded. They didn't give two shits. Yet people stick around in a toxic relationship with the site until they get removed. It's weird. Why not just make the move to Lemmy before they take everything from you?
Lmao I can tell you've never used Teams before.
I work for MS and literally every MS employee hates Teams. I would cut off my tongue before I recommend it to a friend.
The problem with Discord isn't the program, it's the fact that we have a million different servers now. People just don't like having to go to a new server for every different conversation, but that's the way they all chose to use it so it's their own fault.
This does sound like planned obsolescence to me...
Oop CPU sales are down! Leak one of our critical flaws to force people to upgrade!
I'm really glad a developer that actually cares about BG made this game. I'm not sure how much more I can take of ruined classics.
Man, BG games are really some of the best! Give it a play!
I don't understand why they would even try to get this data. It's not like a Reddit post would stand up in court as admissable evidence of piracy.
Man, this makes me rethink my whole idea of online anonymity.
There's a lot of reasons why requiring identity verification could be a good thing, but holy shit now I realize how quickly something like that could slip into authoritarianism.
I still think we need a identity verification service for things like online games and social media (to thwart ban evasion), but it has to be something decentralized.
Yeah, right-wingers flock to "safe-spaces" as much as the far-left does. Lemmy doesn't have the tools to make a single community isolated like they could on Reddit, so they have to go to their own instances and end up defederated.
The main differences between left-wing and right-wing communities is that the right-wing ones quickly deteriorate towards a lot of hate related things. This leads them to being isolated from the rest. The left wingers are mostly tolerable and are just over zealous in preaching things like forcing everyone to use pronouns, lmao.
I just don't understand our societies lax take on gun control.
In Boston, there was a restaurant owner that got mad at a guy so he rode up to him on his bike and tried to shoot him in the street! He's only being charged with assault!
Motherfucker tried to commit murder and shot into a busy restaurant and no one seems to really care.
There are many instances that have 50k+ bot accounts because they didn't protect their sign-ups. Those instances should be defederated by everyone until they get cleaned up.
Not de-federating for political reasons is a personal preference and one that you are free to have, but if you aren't protecting the fediverse from security risks like bot swarms, you're doing more harm than good.
It's crazy how many people will just click accept on security warning them that an app will access literally everything on their phone.
It's also crazy how many people don't even know that Threads is Meta... where the f have these people been for the past 10 years?
Adjusted for inflation, that $700 rent would be $1,242 today. Not quite enough to get it all the way to the $3,600 they are quoting today. There's something else very funky going on right now. A lot of cities are experiencing massive population loss... yet rental costs continue to rise. I'm sure the housing crisis has a large part to play in that, but it still doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
