Not surprising when flagship devices have more than doubled in price in over the last decade.

That and the fact that many modern devices feel like compromised devices with purposeful downgrades despite the huge cost increase.

The U.K. Government Is Very Close To Eroding Encryption Worldwide (www.eff.org)

The U.K. Government Is Very Close To Eroding Encryption Worldwide::The U.K. Parliament is pushing ahead with a sprawling internet regulation bill that will, among other things, undermine the privacy of people around the world. The Online Safety Bill, now at the final stage before passage in the House of Lords, gives the British...

Honestly I hope WhatsApp (yeah I know Meta are date harvester extraordinares) pull out the second this passes.

WhatsApp is by far the largest messaging service used in the UK. Every company I’ve worked for in the last five years makes extensive use of group WhatsApps. Same with all my friends and family too.

The public outcry at that loss would potentially be enough to sway politicians away from such BS. Anything short of WhatsApp going and the British public won’t be technologically literate enough to give a fuck.

It does and that’s the real issue.

MS has the power, reach and financial means to completely steamroll the market by underpricing games pass to kill any competition. Then once they’ve done that they can set prices, control labour and production to reduce costs too and monopolise the market to their shareholders cold dead money grubbing hearts content.

To put the scale of the issue in perspective.

Microsoft has a market cap of 2.5 Trillion dollars. Or 2500 billion.

Sony, Nintendo, Tencent, Valve, EA, Take Two and Ubisoft combined don’t even reach 700 billion. We take Tencent out of the equation and it’s only 300 billion.

So we’re talking 4x that of all their combined global competition. If we only look at “western” companies its basically 8.5x.

But getting rid of Bobby Kotick will make gaming better /s

The beans phase had me doubting the quality part for sure.

Mildly infuriating my arse.

The only future outcomes are wholly and completely infuriated to the very core of your being if the ex escalates past phone harassment to real life.

Or

The feeling of smug self satisfaction of dodging the fucking firing squad when this person leaves your life without further fuss.

It is not Lemmy or kbin, it is the fediverse. (kbin.social)

I don't think many people understand that if they use Lemmy or kbin, they are posting to the fediverse. There are other platforms and will be more to come. Referring to a post on "Lemmy" or "kbin" is like saying you saw a post on your Windows or Mac computer....

You’re vastly overestimating the knowledge, intelligence and fucks given by the vast majority of people.

The fediverse is frankly too complex and convoluted for the normies. Whichever instance manages to remove the complexity, solve the onboarding process and get the content right will win out and be the thing the normies speak of.
