some_guy , to technology in After USB-C win, EU tells Tim Cook that Apple must 'open up its gates to competitors'.

An entrenched ecosystem and backlash from consumers the last time they made such a change?

some_guy , to technology in After USB-C win, EU tells Tim Cook that Apple must 'open up its gates to competitors'.

It would be foolish to think that the company that started shipping notebooks with only USB-C five years ago, and that transitioned its iPads to USB-C something like three years ago, wasn’t going to make a phone with USB-C eventually. I mean, you’d have to be disingenuous about the facts to take such a position.

some_guy , to memes in Reddit is dead. Long live the Fediverse.

People who would leave a site like Reddit because of a principled stance often mistakenly believe that the rest of society cares as deeply as they. Spoiler: society mostly doesn’t care; at least, not enough to go out of their way to change anything.

some_guy , to memes in So Jesus is fossil fuel?

Dinos turn into oil. Why wouldn’t Christ?

some_guy , to technology in After USB-C win, EU tells Tim Cook that Apple must 'open up its gates to competitors'.

As though the EU caused Apple to switch to USB-C. This was obviously years-in-the-making. iPads already had it.

some_guy , to world in Russian troops raped women as old as 83 while their families were forced to listen

Though women of all ages are the most frequent targets of sexual violence, Russians use rape as a “deliberate tactic” to dehumanize victims regardless of sex, Insider previously reported.

“When women are held for days and raped, when you start to rape little boys and men, when you see a series of genital mutilations, when you hear women testify about Russian soldiers equipped with Viagra, it’s clearly a military strategy,” Pramila Patten, the UN’s special representative on sexual violence in conflict, told AFP, per France 24.

Fucking hell…

some_guy , to news in Alabama inmate opposes being ‘test subject’ for new nitrogen execution method

Alabama really shows itself to be one of the most savage states when it comes to their treatment of prisoners. Fucking monsters.

some_guy , to technology in The EU says X is the worst platform for disinformation | Just as it removes a way to report election misinformation

EU should block X. See how Lonnie responds to that.

Future headline: Lonboy threatens to sue EU

some_guy , to til in TIL Children as young as eight can and have been put on the sex offender registry, which lasts the rest of their lives.

There was a video on the old site, recently, where a Ring doorbell caught an officer interaction. Man reported other man as grooming his daughter, who was convinced to send nudes. Cop said she could be arrested for creating child pornography. This is the stupid world we live in.

According to a podcast I listened to a few years ago, kids have even gone on the sex-offender list for pissing in public. I don’t doubt that to be true. It made me a lot more cautious about peeing on a tree late at night when drunk.

some_guy , to news in US FCC chair to seek reinstating net neutrality rules rescinded under Trump

Within a short time after Ajit Pai was appointed to the FCC chair, there was an article at Ars Technica about net neutrality being rescinded. The article also detailed the many votes against consumers on Pai’s record. I sent a link to my mother, who voted for Trump, telling her that this was partially her fault and that it affected everyone, not just her.

We have a “no politics” rule, now, instituted by me. Our relationship couldn’t survive otherwise. Just tell me about the grandkids, your pets, the weather. Never tell me how you voted to fuck up the world.

some_guy , to news in Trump campaign backtracks claim that he bought a Glock handgun in South Carolina after it became clear that would be illegal

It’s also people who brush off inconvenient information because a guy hates all the people they hate and they wish they could have a huge platform to say what he says.

some_guy , to technology in The vast majority of NFTs are now worthless, new report shows

How to say, “I’m a rube,” without saying it out loud. Not a tear will be shed for these doofs.

some_guy , to technology in Europe wants easy default browser selection screens. Mozilla is already sounding the alarm on dirty tricks

We don’t need AMP links on Lemmy. Please try to avoid them by posting links to the real article. We (mostly, I’d think) have ad blockers, so it won’t be a problem.

some_guy , to memes in EVs

Came to say the same. Where I live (Bay Area), we have a train system that works great if you are in a supported area. If not, I don’t imagine the bus system is very convenient. I want something like the NYC subway system. I want it to be inconvenient to drive, compared to regular trains. I’d never drive to San Francisco because it’s a hassle. I want all destinations to be like this (by making the alternative more attractive, not by making driving worse).

some_guy , to selfhosted in Harness launches Gitness, an open-source GitHub competitor

I complained when the term “crypto” was co-opted. Come die with me on this hill where we care about things.
