• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit will tighten verification to keep out human-like AI bots⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  While I completely agree with you about the absence of one-liners and meme comments, and even more left leaning community, there’s still that strong element of “gotcha” in discussions. Also tonnes of people not reading an article before commenting (at a better rate than Reddit probably), and a generally even more doomer attitude is common here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit will tighten verification to keep out human-like AI bots⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s the difference between Reddit and Lemmy culturally? I thought that the people who moved over here held opinions fairly typical of Reddit.

  Yeah 100% I was getting this thought.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised range⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Shares somehow up today

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  In USD adjusted for inflation it looks to be about $9000.

  I wouldn’t challenge this view for Musk, Bezos, Trump. But Zuck gives me more of a “reformed (now married) incel that comes from an otherwise normal family environment vibe”. His marriage seems at least typical, likely loving etc.

  His product happens to be the most harmful for democracy and I consider him equal for worst of the bunch as a result, but I think it’s explained by corporate/personal greed and being out of touch with reality.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Meta XR glasses again tipped to land later this year – well ahead of Apple's rumored AR glasses with Apple Intelligence⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Even then, you know that these glasses are going to be priced in such a way that is subsidized by data harvesting somehow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fact that even 3D games are old now blows my mind on a regular basis.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree. Xbox 360 now being considered a retro console now is amazing to me too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mark Zuckerberg Thinks You Don't Have Enough Friends and His Chatbots Are the Answer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s right, and none of my friends even post to Facebook anymore (neither do I).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTok fined $600 million for China data transfers that broke EU privacy rules⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Look up Al Gore vs George Bush Jr. in 2000. The lack of a preferential voting system meant that Bush won Florida (and thus the election as a whole) because votes were split on Gore and a left-leaning independent, leaving Bush with the most votes (despite all the greens voters almost certainly wanting Gore over Bush).

  Cards real close to the chest on this one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony Music Among Parties Pushing To Cut Off Internet for Pirating Customers — Supreme Court Asked To Intervene⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Haven’t hasn’t it been shown that people who pirate heavily actually spend more on media overall than those who do not?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mark Zuckerberg Says Social Media Is Over⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed. 1/5 of the posts were from friends for me, and half of those friends posts were from one chronic Facebook acquaintance that I should unfriend.

  I went through and unfriended a couple of hundred people that I need not be friends with on the platform anymore recently, and I’ve got to say I was impressed with how little my real friends actually post to Facebook. It wasn’t uncommon to see someone’s last post to be well before 2020 on there, over half a decade ago.

  It leads me to believe that the concept of pushing out a comment to the Facebook news feed died a long time ago for the average millennial. People still probably comment in groups, but have set up privacy filters that prevent them from being shown publicly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oblivion remake is... really making it apparent how outdated Bethesda is in its approach to making games⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re describing a remake, which isn’t what this remaster is. A remaster is literally what this is, just like Diablo 2 Resurrected a few years ago

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oblivion remake is... really making it apparent how outdated Bethesda is in its approach to making games⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  100% agree. Pleasing Gamers™ is a Kafka trap.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony Music Among Parties Pushing To Cut Off Internet for Pirating Customers — Supreme Court Asked To Intervene⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is music piracy is still a major thing these days? I’ve not even considered it for years, because every music streaming platform has all the music, it seems.

  Movie and TV show piracy must be so much more rampant because of the fragmentation creating inconvenience to consumers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Genuinely I think the right answer is to have something really loud and off-putting for them (especially her) and an air horn perfectly fits the bill.
