Florida gets closer to banning social media for kids under 16 (abcnews.go.com)

Florida is on the verge of passing one of the nation’s most restrictive bans on minors’ use of social media after the state Senate passed a bill Thursday that would keep children under the age of 16 off popular platforms regardless of parental approval....

Wait… a bill from Florida that isn’t malicious? Someone pinch me.

FlordaMan ,

Oh shit, I misread. Thought it banned social media from implementing addicting algorithms. Whoopsie

FlordaMan ,

‘it’s not perfect so we can’t’ is absolutely not the ‘dumbest fucking’ argument if we are talking about actual human lives.

FlordaMan ,

Is threads that bad?

FlordaMan ,

How would they control it? If they do anything bad we can just defederate, right?

FlordaMan ,

It’s about 24% of the userbase according to this comment: lemmy.world/comment/6148151

0.19 allows for instance blocking, so the good tools will be available.

Another layer to their technique, you just don’t understand.

We build this entire reddit alternative without interconnectivity with reddit, why couldn’t we do that again if threads decides to do that. People will be familiar with how lemmy works and there will be no ads here, so I don’t completely see a problem. Plus the format of lemmy is completely different from threads right?

FlordaMan ,

I agree it’s a stupid company, but I don’t see why we should work against them if they finally decide to so something kinda good.

FlordaMan ,

Yea but how are they going to extinguish an non-centralized social network?

FlordaMan ,

I heard they are also working on hiding their soldiers on the ground.

FlordaMan ,

Chivalry 2 can also be played on deck, there are tutorials on how to do it.

I think it’s at least partly valve’s fault, they promised to make steamOS open for other manufacturers, but they just haven’t.

Correct me if I’m wrong

The ruling is a victory for Republican lawmakers and coal-related interests that argued that the carbon-pricing plan amounted to a tax, and therefore would have required legislative approval. Wolf, a Democrat, had sought to get around legislative opposition by unconstitutionally imposing the requirement through a regulation, they said.

Seems like they where trying to go around the opposition (with a majority). So couldn’t they just try this again if they do have a majority?

I too find it interesting how uninteresting some people are.
