chaogomu , in Twitter removed half its HQ sign — then the police arrived

Reading that article, Musk was doing a half ass press conference while playing Diablo 4...

I remember when Eldan Ring came out, he posted his build and someone did the math to figure out it would take at least 10 -12 hours per day of playing in order to get that shitty build...

There's nothing wrong with binge gaming... I just wish he would shut up and truly binge.

Sam Bankman-Fried also did the whole "play games while in a meeting" bullshit. For some reason, people thought he was also a genius instead of a bargain rate con-man. There are parallels...

Hubi ,

Musk probably has some poor minimum wage slave grind for him when he’s afk.

Chriszz ,

I didn’t know he games (or pretends to).

ArugulaZ , in Analysis | Twitter rival Mastodon rife with child-abuse material, study finds

Luckily, I don't see anything like that on Mastodon. Unfortunately, I don't see much of anything on Mastodon.

Gnubyte OP ,

I’ve seen a lot of great stuff on Mastodon but when it starts to become overwhelmingly political, I dip out. Problem is that you have to follow an abrasive amount of random people to start seeing anything across their fediverse. Shit in the beginning, awesome/hits the mark at least in terms of twitter replacement - after you follow enough people.

ArugulaZ ,

You're right, I do need to build up my watch list. I'm just not sure where to start. I'll probably have to parasitize the watch lists of the few people I'm already watching.

Hashtags are also a good place to start! For example, if you’re looking for science content you can follow the hashtag. Once you have those posts coming in to your feed, start following the people and hashtags you’re seeing on the posts you like best. It’ll start snowballing from there.

Also, don’t worry too much about following too much at first. Get that feed populated, then pare it down later. Filtering is pretty powerful too, so a lot of times you can get the good parts of a hashtag and filter out the bad parts instead of the all-or-nothing following of some social media.

Oh, good. The robot death machines will just fuck off to the middle east to wage a new crusade. Everywhere else is safe.

I’d love to see the “twit” lined up outside the front door / gate / electric fence of Musk’s residence.

Well I was already afraid of this kind of thing. Now I’m much more afraid.

BURN , in Spotify raises premium subscription price for millions

Might be the push for me to go to YT music, which I already pay for with YT premium, but I’ve never wanted to use it. But now that Spotify is giving me a reason I might just switch.

Funny you mention that. I just got an email last week that my youtube music price was going up to $16.99/month. I’ve used it since the days of google play, before it joined with youtube and it was like $9.99 (mostly out of a dislike for spotify). But it isn’t the best service tbh, what with low-quality audio and a buggy app interface. So I was finally motivated to make the switch to Tidal this week. Loving it so far… hope they don’t follow suit and up their sub price like the others (knock on wood).

FWIW, the email I got from youtube said something about being able to sign up for a cheaper rate if I nuked my account and made a new one on youtube through a web browser. Not sure why that would make a difference, but I was too over it to even bother.

Pika ,

I am actually debating canceling my yt premium sub over it and im going to twitch turbo, I have been progressively using yt less and less anyway and to be honest, the new price point (which was 13.99 for me) is not worth the benefits it provides. mobile queuing can be used via playlist or watch later, adverts are annoying but avoidable with new found apps approaching. Downloading for offline use is a joke, it barely has ever worked for me. Picture in Picture mode is buggy and for the most part I don’t use it. This combined with the absolute crap recommendation system they have had the last few years(like seriously its all either stuff in my watch history or stuff that is unrelated to anything I watch). I’m sure they are just following every other company but, it might just push me off lol

Also to clarify your nuking account thing. I expect you signed up via either apple subscriptions or google play subs, both of which take a chunk out of the money given. So that might be what is going on with the price diff.

wahming ,

Except... google play sub's cut would presumably go to... google

Pika ,

yea, but internal to internal charges are sadly not uncommon. so they would still do a charge.

Rhaedas , in White House says it does not back Ukraine attacks inside Russia

"Yeah, you guys shouldn't be doing that. Anyway..."

ryathal , in White House says it does not back Ukraine attacks inside Russia

Of course they don’t, they aren’t interested in a decisive Ukrainian win. The US would be ecstatic if this war lasted a decade with Russia being stuck in a no win situation.

Russia should probably just leave Ukraine then.

ryathal ,

That’s ultimately going to happen.

The obvious bias of such a statement aside, one important problem with developing true general AI is that you can’t be sure the AI’s values align with your own.

Hmm…my MP3 subscription has been the same price since the 90s.

Of course they are going to say that publicly. You know the back channels are entirely full bellied laughter and “what’s next?”

blacklizardplanet , in Spotify raises premium subscription price for millions

If you’re on Android, try out InnerTune. Just found it myself.

Pretty sure X has existed since Ancient Greece at least. Maybe even the Phoenicians before the Greek alphabet?
