Honestly don’t care what they do with their store. But it’s super fucked to exert 100% control of all software on the device.

Talking and actually sticking with those ideals are totally different things
Right, but we weren’t talking about sticking to the ideals, we were talking about the ideals themselves.

You don’t hear them talk about free speech constantly? You don’t see conservative platforms popping up every week? Truth Social anyone?
- Comment on Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared 1 day ago:
Free platforms like the Fediverse would actually suit conservative ideals of freedom quite well.

I don’t understand what that’s supposed to mean.

I certainly did see them canvassing DC.

No it “would” not be, it is. Don’t know if you’ve noticed but our gov hasn’t cared about the constitution for a long time, and no time less than today where people are being deported and imprisoned in concentration camps with no due process.
Trump has gone on record saying he does not care about the law.

Political activism by withdrawing payment is the most powerful form of activism.

It won’t cause a noticeable drop more than having their broadcasting license revoked, which is what they were threatened with. Kimmel will likely cave.

Just the cancellation page? That’s not suspicious at all…

Even if it was true, your server can’t handle a couple hundred simultaneous requests? That’s not promising either. Although at least that would be easier to fix than the real problem, which is incredibly obvious to anyone who has ever used this technology, and that’s that it doesn’t fucking work, and is flawed on a fundamental level.

Federation is a 2 way street! No federation means his users all get to live out their days in a big circlejerk.
- Comment on Mark Zuckererg Demos New Facebook AI And It Couldn’t Have Gone Worse 3 days ago:
That seems like something that could be fixed pretty easily, as opposed to the AI stuff that’s fundamentally flawed.
The neural wristband they demonstrated was actually extremely impressive and I can see a lot of different practical usecases for such a device.

Trump actually does host his own Mastodon server. It’s called “Truth”. Unfortunately it doesn’t federate 🤣
But yeah, pretty rough to see Obama and Biden still posting to Xitter.

Honestly I don’t get excited about any new tech outside of FOSS spaces. Tech used to be made to make your life better and now it’s almost exclusively used to exploit you.

Don’t forget about “the Metaverse”. You know, the thing he spent tens of billions of dollars on, renamed the company after, then promptly abandoned to chase AI grifting.

OMG thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed such a public fucking catastrophe.
I kinda respect them for actually attempting a live demo but I also can’t believe they were stupid enough to try it a live demo.
Then they try to use WiFi as a copout 🤣

Several reasons, really.

I still think it’s fucked up that CDPR and so many others have a “release it now, fix it later” mentality, but yes, at least they owned it.

I see a lot of liberals openly advocating for suppression of speech while clearly not understanding the ramifications of such actions.

I think they would be better of by just ignoring
I mean the best thing they could do is to acknowledge that the game could use some optimization and promise to continue working on it. Even if they have no intention of doing so. But that might get them in trouble with Nvidia since they slapped an “Nvidia optimized” badge on it.
The worst thing they could do is say “buy a better PC”.

When I was on Reddit I use to nuke my account completely every 12 months or so, so I cannot relate…

Reddit users, as have Xitter, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, etc., have all demonstrated that you can do whatever the fuck you want to them and they’ll just keep coming back for more, no matter what.

Neither. It’s fully compatible with Lemmy but different on both the front and backends.
