Why is everything in consumer / American life so fucking shitty now - and companies literally just say 'oh bc profit margins' and we're now expected to swallow that and sympathize?

like I went to taco bell and they didn’t even have napkins out. they had the other stuff just no napkins, I assume because some fucking ghoul noticed people liked taking them for their cars so now we just don’t get napkins! so they can save $100 per quarter rather than provide the barest minimum quality of life features.

We’re in a generation of complacency. Nobody cares and our to busy consuming to care.

Venomnik0 ,

This is incredibly off topic here considering the fact we’re mostly talking about Google and the company giving a market advantage to companies that could cut them some “deals”

Venomnik0 ,

Wow. Windows 11 truly works against itself. (Though I expect MSFT to patch it within the week)

Venomnik0 ,

I still can’t believe these release groups do their services for free. Godbless.

Xbox's new policy — say goodbye to unofficial accessories from November thanks to error '0x82d60002' (www.windowscentral.com)

Xbox’s new policy — say goodbye to unofficial accessories from November thanks to error ‘0x82d60002’::Got error 0x82d60002 on your Xbox accessory? There’s no fix, Xbox is going to block the use of detected unauthorized accessories with its consoles from November 12, 2023.

Venomnik0 ,

Does cheating in games justify downright deactivating custom accessories?

Why would say it’s racist when being jewish is a religion? Also just because they’re not particularly white doesn’t mean that White supremacy can be inspired or want to support ideologies like apartheid states. Especially the people they’re targeting happen to be a group of people white supremacists would deem as “unpure”?

Venomnik0 ,

how is that possible because I’d like to know how to do that in general?

Venomnik0 ,

Wow you should run as governor. I should you give you a suggestion between Florida or Texas.

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...

Venomnik0 ,

He should start charging the users to make up for the loss ;) (praying and hoping this damn site dies soon)

The lives of Palestinians are far less important than our boys in blue. Instead of I don’t know? stopping Israel directly, we’ll just save our people and get out of there.

Venomnik0 ,

or mastodon/threads mainly

Venomnik0 ,

meh, I’d say a mix of lack of ability to advertise efficiently on services like mastodon and lemmy and the fact that Lemmy and Mastodon are still in their “infancy” (I can’t say that about the latter since its pretty old in comparison to lemmy). Also, lack of marketing power compared to something like meta with billions of dollars of resources and all the motivation to try to get people to move away from Twitter and onto their services. This is new tech so I’d rather just stick to being niche for now and enjoy the experience. Its not going to last long and maybe soon by the next year we’re going to see alot progression.

Venomnik0 ,

I despise bluesky but that too

Venomnik0 ,

Time to rethink Windows 10 support cycle then?

This doesn’t stop Microsoft. It only encourages them to do it harder.

Venomnik0 ,

Thank you for this. Usually I go to my universities’ underground radio station but this works just as well :)

Venomnik0 ,

I came here just to say this. I usually now just download shit on my ipod so its godtier to get away from the soon to be overpriced streaming services

Venomnik0 ,

Yes, embrace, extend and extinguish my breast milk drinking.

Venomnik0 ,

I would say Apple isn’t as severe as something like Meta or “X” but the amount of influence apple has over the industry is insane. There’s a reason why so many laptops are losing ports “because the MacBook has it” or why smartphones are stagnating and when they “innovate” they’re just removing more features like the SD card reader all simply because “Apple did it”. Hell, Windows has been trying to be like Mac OS for years from its flat minimal design to its oversimplification of its design to trying to make their own “eco system”. Apple’s influence can even extend beyond tech with their flat minimalist, corporate design being applied to every industry and building and design ever to be conceived in 2023. Everyone is trying to be Apple from Tech companies to fast food joints. Truly if we measure their influence and the power they carry moving entire industries to do various things. They are one of the most powerful company in silicon valley. Everything we hate about modern tech and how restrictive it is can be sourced all the way back to Apple.

Venomnik0 ,

a year maybe

Venomnik0 ,

Wouldn’t it happen by now considering how much MSFT/corporate influence Linux already has?

Venomnik0 ,

Honestly, I don’t even think it’ll be S mode. Just Home really and for pro users they’ll end up with the subscription model

Venomnik0 ,

paying for twitter

Venomnik0 ,

Oh no im not saying that about myself. left a long time ago when he started rate limiting and funding right leaning mfs. I’m just trying to imagine wby people stay on a service like that. I kinda hope elon starts charging for twitter so when i see who actually pays for it, its gonna be much easier to cut them off.

Venomnik0 ,

and if they got a gun or call the cops back on you? Are you just gonna say “they broke my window so i broke his” Good luck with assault charges you and him will share or a bullet whichever you one you’ll get.

Venomnik0 ,

Guy? the article itself said it was a bunch of female officers that assaulted her.

Venomnik0 ,

Both designs really need to make a comeback as an option

Venomnik0 ,

and then they pull out the “you’ll kill small businesses tho”

Venomnik0 ,

whats the difference between opus and 320 mp3?

Venomnik0 ,

neat. Though now i wish my ipod supported opus (besides rockbox) but thats much nicer to know!

Venomnik0 ,

Not even. Remember he was funding people like Andrew Tate thousands of dollars. Nothing is gonna get these people out unless they get charged to use twitter

Venomnik0 ,

Its between the “it might take away jobs” to “spotify might use podcasters voices without consent”. I’m more on the latter but thats as if Spotify would end up being the “only” podcast streaming platform.

Venomnik0 ,

A bunch of my friends laughed when I said I was sad this service was ending because they were like “wtf? Who gets/uses DVDs??”

As they later pay $17 a month (and soon maybe even more) to barely watch any movies or have their favorite and shows get removed or cancelled for no reason.

Venomnik0 ,

Windows (Linux Edition)

-You can now remove system32

Venomnik0 ,

Based weezer :)

Venomnik0 ,

I’m so glad people are calling Bluesky out for the trash service it is. I just mastodon outlasts this crap and we get more people on there than bluesky

Venomnik0 ,

You know elon will try no matter what.

Venomnik0 ,

A chip in our brain is not necessary enough for animals to be literally sacrificed for “future human trials”

Go back to farming dogecoin or some shit

Meta is bolstering perks like happy hours and company swag as it pushes staff to return to office, despite its 'year of efficiency' (www.businessinsider.com)

Meta is bolstering perks like happy hours and company swag as it pushes staff to return to office, despite its ‘year of efficiency’::The company has revived a number of employee perks, according to Bloomberg, including branded t-shirts, laundry services, and free haircuts.

That’s not hair… that’s skin for his disguise.

What does the movie have anything to do with this?

Are Internet boards and Forums dead

i started using the internet in the late 2000’s and still remember when you search for something most of the times it would return with a forum post … now its just random websites … if you ever need real and concise answer you have to add site:reddit.com at every search and since discord or twitter are not crawlable by...

Venomnik0 ,

There are the alternatives too!

Venomnik0 ,

I wouldn’t say its a return of traditional forums. Far from it really design wise. I think its more of a return to independence and decentralization. I think we’re done with the whole “Web 2.0. Everything in one convenient place” and want to back to an era where things were much harder to find and communities were a lot more separated and dedicated to their own spaces. The fediverse isn’t the end all be all and we’re gonna suddenly go back to the 90s but to me, it’s an honest step in the right direction that could really change the internet for the better.

Venomnik0 ,

Defederation is honestly both toxic and history repeating itself i guess. There’s reasons for it but it’ll pass.

Venomnik0 ,

most people follow advertisements right back into the clutches of corpo-controlled products.

The thing is I expect places like Lemmy and even Mastodon to eventually fall to this behavior. The reason I’m even viewing them as services that should be must for the common user is the mere ability to even move out without having to leave everything behind (if you catch what i’m saying) thats the real core difference and hope that I have. The problem is again like anlumo said, defederation is definitely going to be a major hurdle and one where major companies will especially take advantage of.

Venomnik0 , (edited )

Unfortunately, not likely. Unless there are some apps that will be able to do that; we’re stuck with this.

Sync actually has this

Venomnik0 ,

Oh then my apologies. I haven’t used Sync in awhile so I completely forgotten

Do younger people go home earlier now? Or go out less? Is it since COVID?

Someone asked a question about how frequently young people have time to socialize and it made me think about what people do with their evenings. I recently asked my son to go to a concert (free ticket to see a band i know he likes) and he declined because it was an hour away on a weeknight. If we invite our kids or niece/nephew...

Venomnik0 ,

I wonder which generation could be responsible for such a “useless generation”.

Venomnik0 ,

Thank you!

Venomnik0 ,

According to FL, this is a-ok for children to see and quite preferable over trans people.
