The moment this shit appears on mine I‘m buying an Apple TV.

Until the first few break down and you need to buy new ones, just to realize they are different from the ones you have by now (or discontinued outright).

Yeah, considering it’s such a major update none of them will work this seems a very prudent thing to do.

Total Commander. Has been for two decades on PC and near one on Android. Not beautiful, but so useful.

It doesn’t check the stuff it generates other than on grammatical and orthographical errors. It’s not intelligent or has knowledge outside of how to create text. The text looks useful, but it doesn’t know what it contains in a way something intelligent would.

Which means it does need outside help (even passive help).

Standards can be updated. Like the EU standard was from Micro-USB to USB-C. It happens all the time in all fields of technology.

Vox Media was the owner since the beginning. The founders of The Verge went to the owner of SB Nations after leaving Engadget. It is part of Vox Media since the beginning.

I still have some I bought 15 years ago at Ikea, still working. Most I exchanged because of the rapid technical development in the one and a half decade not because they stopped working.

Spez loves Musk after all, can’t take his head out of his ass.

So? Reddit has about 10 sizeable Subs that are just a variation of “Ask Any and All Questions”. That’s not even counting speciality subs like “MedicalQuestions” or “ITQuestions” or “DermatologyQuestions” or “AskTrangender”. Or the different language ones like “FragReddit” (German). In the end 1-3 will become the major ones, all will be a bit different and everyone will find the ones they like most.

This has nothing to do with EV, it has to do with extremely overcharing customers. A BMW fender could run you 5000 just for the part. My fiancee worked in the automotive sector so she has the gross prices: under 100 Euros.

Musk did the same stupid thing just now, rewarding accounts with many retweets/views with money (of course Fascists), making sure bots will bot the shit out of other bots to make a dime, of course Musk-lover Spez follows suit.

Sans the tomatoes (from the Americas after all) Pizza has been around at least 2000 years ago: reuters.com/…/pizza-painting-found-ancient-roman-…

We also have a written account of Persian soldiers using their shields to bake a flatbread with cheese and dates on top from the 6th century BC, which one could count as Pizza.

If Lemmy.world doesn't defederate from Threads, Meta and all things Zuck within 24 hours, I will shut down my subs and leave.

I didn’t come to a new service just to see it get taken over by the corporate beasts who ruined the internet in general, and I am sure as hell am not going to use an instance that doesn’t care about its users....

Maybe learn the basics of the Fediverse before demanding to undo something that doesn’t even exist yet.

But you need to host the videos on your instance and foot the bandwith bill, which will prevent it from taking off like Youtube. Too expensive for anyone outside of gigantic monopolistic companies.

It relies on peer-to-peer, not hosting.

BTW: there is also a Facebook equivalent (Friendica, GNU Social, Dispora and Hubzilla), a Instagram equivalent (Pixelfed) and a Instant Messenger (Matrix)

But why go to Stormfront Lite, if you have Stromfront Extra Deluxe* in form of Twitter already.

Mastodon's Founder & CEO Gives His Thoughts on Meta's Threads (blog.joinmastodon.org)

Found this post super informative as it relates to Mastodon, and thought Lemmy might also benefit from this perspective. I’m not sure I share his optimism, but his points seem sound to dampen some of the alarm bells over Meta joining the Fediverse.

What should happen? That’s all public information, they can (and probably do) scrape this already. As does all and any AI project and company.

Replace? No. Be a valiable second option? Sure. Like in the early 2000 when you had dozens of major forums for certain topics. Something Awful, GameFAQs, Digg, Slashdot, 4chan, NeoGAF… It‘s not a natural law that there has to be one service having 95 % of the discussion market locked up.

What is the evidence that these are bots?

Money is tighter since the inflation affects VC and stupid money flowing in. Stock prices are not going up, people have no money to play with (see the death of NFTs at the same time, the definition of a stupid investment).

Lemmy, KBin and Mastodon fullfil all the needs for online news outside of dedicated news sites for me by now, Twitter is something I haven't used directly for months now.
