Twitter's lost 13% of its daily users and its rebrand has failed (www.bigtechnology.com)

The new data — comprehensive and definitive — should put to rest the countervailing narratives over Musk’s management of the app. Under his stewardship, X’s daily user base has declined from an estimated 140 million users to 121 million, with a widening gap between people who check the app daily vs. monthly. X’s...

You hypothetically showed them.

Ur dumb

SamboT ,

Your best guess is wrong :)

SamboT ,

There was a Facebook post somewhere with the numbers and a tik tok of someone explaining why they are correct. These sources will make sense after you have enough hours of scrolling in the lemmy instance already provided to you.

With enough practice you will understand that we should just downvote and shun people who ask for sources. It saves so much time and helps to avoid understanding the world as it is.

Okay good there you go.

Disney is gouging customers with a near doubling of subscription costs. (sh.itjust.works)

Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I’m off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here’s the proof.

SamboT ,

Let people be stupid. Don’t share the link openly… fm0vi35 is already too good to be true. If people start canceling subscriptions for it, it will be a target to take down.

SamboT ,

Ideally, yes.

I’m pretty sure it is hard

Because they made the right choice for the goals they set out to reach. The lack of agency is just a playful way of writing.

SamboT ,

There’s nothing wrong with doing what’s expected of you. At any time I can give up my career and coast at the expense of my stability but I never choose that option. That doesn’t mean I’m not making the decision to continue to work.

If you have an option to keep my free time and financial stability then I’m listening.

OP looking back and yearning for their childhood does not mean they did anything wrong in their life path. Growing away from your childhood is very common.

You have no idea if OP is proud of their path and is casually reminiscing or if they believe they should have done something different.

All of your wikihow tier advice is a weirdly specific to a life that we know nothing about. OP has discipline to continually make the same decision to stay on their path instead of getting distracted by selfish instant gratification.

SamboT ,

Telling someone to change jobs and avoid dating is not the same thing as saying he delayed gratification. The ladder is just a quality of growing away from your childhood.

My question was rhetorical. You still tried to answer my question by making up context just like your posts about OP. This is what I’m saying is pointless. There are more important things in life than retaining your childhood such as providing for yourself and others. I would guess in most cases, growing away from your childhood is done out of necessity. It’s a sacrifice of time people choose because of the consequences of the alternative but you say OP should have made different decisions to prioritize their childhood? Your criticisms are only valid for someone who sacrifices needlessly which doesn’t seem like a common thing.

How do you have experience with both men and women’s restrooms?

Edit: ow the downvotes

SamboT ,

I have but it was unisex lol

Maybe woman bring toddlers to the bathroom more often?

Why would you assume a new method would have the exact same success rate as different methods?

SamboT ,

Heuristics sure are fun. Unfortunately they are often wrong and thinking things out is better. Maybe don’t broadcast strong opinions for things you don’t know anything about. It’s a lonely life here on Lemmy but there are other ways to get attention and validation than instantiating some opinion that you’ve held long enough to type it out.

Almost 7% of adults and 1% of kids have struggled with long Covid, survey finds (www.cnn.com)

Estimates of the number of people in the US with lingering Covid-19 symptoms vary widely, but a new survey from the National Center for Health Statistics says the condition may have affected as many as 962,000 children and 17.9 million adults.

My wife and I make a decent amount but when she went to have an opinion on wrist pain, we have no answers and after one test we have paid nearly 2 thousand dollars after copay. The doctor says we can try the next thing if we want. It’s fucking ridiculous. How can anyone afford Healthcare in the US?

Bigscreen Beyond is a new vr headset that is a little bigger than pool goggles. It’s manufactured based off of a lidar scan of your face, and is supposed to be very comfortable.

Additionally full color passthrough is becoming more of a common feature so you can see the real world in good definition while wearing the headset. Also some models hinge the display upwards off of your face.

We are getting there. Personally I play for hours a day. Sometimes multiple 4 hour sessions if it’s a free weekend for me. I agree we need more experiences. But it will come.

SamboT ,

Oh. It’s just that you listed these reasons as detractors. I don’t really know what you mean by default engagement. I’m not understanding your use case. Do you expect to be wearing VR goggles while you walk down the street to the convenience store? They are for play right now… not so much work.

General Motors Co. booked $9.9 billion in net income last year, down from 2021’s $10 billion despite chronic supply chain woes, rising interest rates and a slowing economy.

GM’s comparatively strong financial performance enabled the Detroit automaker to deliver profit-sharing bonuses of $12,750 to approximately 42,300 hourly employees (total number of employees in 2022 was 167,000) - GM’s highest such profit-sharing payout. The bonuses total $500 million for the year, the company said.

I’m sorry, what the fuck are you talking about?

Is raw earnings data too biased for you? What point do you think im trying to make?

Wait how do you know?

You are saying most people on this site are communists?

They locked their keys inside their program and had to break in.

That’ll be $10.

When im desperate for information and all I’m getting are ai generated article results, I will still resort to appending to reddit to my Google searches but otherwise I’ve deleted everything on reddit and keep up with major current events and bad memes here on lemmy. It really could be a better experience but it’s better than… well… endorsing reddits decisions.

SamboT ,

Maybe calm down

The ads were terrible.

My reddit web viewer still works! Story: When reddit killed 3rd party apps, I uploaded a web viewer I have been using for myself to Github pages for everyone to use... (rdx.overdevs.com)

I posted about that here and forgot < lemmy.world/post/896361> but today when I checked cloudflare analytics it showed about 1000 pageviews in last 24 hours. Looks like some people are using it so just wanted to let you guys know that it works, no ads. no popups nothing.

SamboT ,

I was curious about this kind of idea. Isn’t all reddit content owned by reddit, and isnt pasting their intellectual property onto a different platform not really super legal? (I fully support it)

Being able to extract all of the question/answer threads on reddit to boost the value of lemmy from a search index perspective seemed too good to be true as a solution.

SamboT ,

My subscribed feed has top posts from days ago. Specific communities like virtual reality or mountain biking or classical guitar are basically empty.

That said I don’t use reddit and consider my boutique feed a sacrifice to the internet gods until lemmy has more population.

SamboT ,

I was wondering if it was possible to write a script to scrape reddit posts, and then ask chatgpt to say the same thing slightly differently and output the post/comments in a csv format and then use that to create a lemmy posting bot. Idk if chatgpt has api access like that though, and what agreements would prohibit this.

Isn’t the usefulness of ventures rewarded or not by the efficient market? I really like VR. An emerging market like that is bound to have some design dead ends and wasted money.

Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay (www.commondreams.org)

As part of his Labor Day message to workers in the United States, Sen.

Nice contribution to the thread.

It’s like blaming an ethernet cable for giving your computer a virus.

The designer of the virus is the asshole, and you would be the idiot who went to the website.

You are right that mental pain is an exaggeration, but it’s the accumulation of insufferable interactions that make you hate retail. When 25% of people expect you to act for them, you feel like a puppet. YES the business demands this, but the customer invokes it. So don’t invoke it and let workers sigh relief when you decide not to try to “test” their company response. Is this really that complicated?

SamboT ,

You think you are heard when you do this? Is there any gain for anyone at all?

SamboT ,

Exactly lol.
