- Comment on Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps. 6 days ago:
It also kind of makes sense to leave the name in place since the world has been calling it the “Gulf of Mexico” mid-1500s. The original name was in reference to the Aztecs.
- Comment on Arm's to launch first self-made processors, poaching employees from clients: Reports 1 week ago:
Self-designed. Self-made is a stretch. It doesn’t look like they’re opening a foundry.
- Comment on Reddit plans to lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says | Reddit executives also discussed how they might introduce more ads into the social media platform 1 week ago:
Bad news is that we’re still not setup for Reddit-level user counts. Lemmy needs much better moderation tools to allow communities to stay on top of reports.
Hopefully a lot of new users will also produce new people contributing to Lemmy. Or, maybe some people will form some sort of nonprofit that allows dedicated designers and engineers to continually work on Lemmy. When people contribute as a side gig, most give up after a few months. Most of the Lemmy clients that were build during the Reddit APIocalypse are no longer alive.
- Comment on Zuckerberg's rightward policy shift hits Meta staffers, targets Apple 1 week ago:
I wish we had some sort of way to incentivize dividend payouts, not just massive growth and stock numbers that go up.
- Comment on Apple to use Chinese giant Alibaba’s AI in iPhones 1 week ago:
Reminder, Apple was always going to use a Chinese service for China. ChatGPT is banned in China.
Third party model integration is pretty dumb in Apple intelligence. When Apple’s private model hits a dead end, it asks if you want to throw the prompt into a bigger model.
Eventually, like with search, people will people to select the default model that they integrate with.
- Comment on The Cybertruck Appears to Be More Deadly Than the Infamous Ford Pinto, According to a New Analysis 1 week ago:
It’s only available in North America / Mexico. It won’t fly with many vehicle regulations outside of the US.
I imagine the sharp edges are more than enough to keep it out of Europe forever. Pedestrians need to be able to roll onto a vehicle in an EU pedestrian collision. The Cybertruck will lop you in half.
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 1 week ago:
lol. Is that a windows phone?
- Comment on Sounds like a fun place to work 2 weeks ago:
- Comment on Price Per Square Inch for TVs by size 2 weeks ago:
I want a 3 axis chart of price, size, and number of ads in the UI.
- Comment on NPR Goatse 2 weeks ago:
I don’t.

Have you and the other active mods considered adding a civility rule in the sidebar?
- Comment on How did we move from forums to Reddit, Facebook groups, and Discord? 4 months ago:
Maybe I’m missing something, but I thought you could only upvote / downvote posts. Comments were just a thread, and whoever commented first was at the top.
Hence why a lot of our early shitposting was just commenting “first” as soon as an interesting post when live.

- Comment on How did we move from forums to Reddit, Facebook groups, and Discord? 4 months ago:
My migration was primarily driven by threading, voting, and ads.
- forums (community topics) >
- slashdot (community topics + threads) >
- digg / reddit (community topics + threads + voting) >
- Lemmy (community topics + threads + voting - ads)
- Comment on Amazon tech workers leaving for other jobs in response to return to office mandate 4 months ago:
You don’t have to fund severance if people leave on their own.
- Comment on Google is automating temperature checks for Pixel Pro users 4 months ago:
The pixel’s temp sensor reminds me of the iPhone’s rear facing LiDAR Scanner. It’s cool, but most of us probably won’t use it in its current form.
- Comment on Don’t ever hand your phone to the cops 4 months ago:
Disable biometrics and mention your password.
Android: look up “lockdown mode”
iOS: hold volume down + power, or press power 5 times fast.
- Comment on Don’t ever hand your phone to the cops 4 months ago:
Reminder: If you are in a situation where you’re presenting a digital ID to a digital ID reader, do not unlock your phone first. Tap your locked phone on the ID reader, then authenticate the document share.
- Comment on I don't care if you don't get this joke because I think it's hilarious. 4 months ago:
Indeed
- Comment on Marques Brownlee says ‘I hear you’ after fans criticize his new wallpaper app 4 months ago:
They did option 1. The big app stores require that disclosure these days.
Problem is, people were surprised that a stupid wallpaper app from a know person / brand had ads and ad tracking like scam mobile game.

- Comment on Jony Ive confirms he’s working with Sam Altman on a secret project 4 months ago:
I’m mostly referring to how the case functioned. The door, the legs that tripled as handles and rack mount holes. The G3 / G4 cases were easy to access, upgrade, move, and store.
- Comment on Jony Ive confirms he’s working with Sam Altman on a secret project 4 months ago:
Product design Anakin used to make some dope shit before he turned to the dark side.

- Comment on Apple's mobile chips are now made in the U.S. — TSMC produces the older A16 Bionic at its Arizona fab 5 months ago:
That was Foxcon, not TSMC. And all of us have a LOT of shit in our homes made by Foxcon.
- Comment on Apple's mobile chips are now made in the U.S. — TSMC produces the older A16 Bionic at its Arizona fab 5 months ago:
Less risk of tariffs on China, less risk of supply chain disruptions like with the pandemic, takes advantage of incentives from the US government, and is something that is cool to advertise.
