Honestly glad this isn't being forgotten about. When Reeves announced this I was certain they would only go for the small fry.

Most of them won't have enough critical thinking skills to realise what happened. They'll just blame whoever Fox or Tiktok tells them to blame.

Amazon did not confirm how many staff would be affected by the closures but it said it planned to offer workers new roles in other parts of the business.

"You can't work at the store anymore but how about breaking your back in one of our huge warehouses?"

Sad for the people losing their jobs.

I always thought the concept was cool, but wasn't there a news piece a couple years back that the "sensitive cameras" were actually just outsourced humans watching the camera feeds and noting what they took?

This is just another divisive post to stir engagement and outrage. I doubt the tweet in the screenshot is even real..

Who are you to say what my icons should or should not be? It's my phone.

Classic Lemmy holding a anti-google stance even if it doesn't make sense. This is something power users have been complaining about since Android 13, but of course when Google finally does it Lemmy user cries about Google overreach 🙄

It's clearly not profitable, and I can kinda understand that people who bought the app once in 2013, like me, don't create a good business model.

I never bought the web app back in the day, so I never got grandfathered into Premium, but I was fine with them adding premium features that I couldn't access.

But the forced ad shown on my podcast list AND the player UI, with a cheeky X button that doesn't actually close the ad, is a step too far. I have a lot of respect for this app and the original company who made it but I'm almost at the point of switching.

I'd love to fully self host my podcasts. Unfortunately the self hosted options are all lacking on Android, so I'd probably look at something like AntennaPod but I'm not clear on whether that has a web player or not...

You can't sneeze in this sub without someone complaining about evil Google and pushing Graphene as the solution to all our problems. I wasn't sure if it was astroturfing or whether Lemmy was just hardcore about FOSS.

Unfortunately Reform is the ignorance vote so majority of people won't care about stuff like this (until the inevitable recession a decade later).

Kinda had to end this way, really.

You'd think someone of her status would absolutely ensure that her situation was checked over regarding tax payments. Honest mistake or not, her position became untenable.

Agree with this - I wanted to love Hollow Knight so much, and there was a lot I did love about it, but I really struggle with that specific type of 2d platformer.

Pixel 8 and newer, but not the 8a or 9a.
