Yes yes yes.
I mean, I have as much of a problem with Musk and his insane antics as the next guy, but is TikTok really an improvement in that regard?
Are we at the point where we have to select “the lesser fascist” when contemplating who should have control of our social media?
Yeah, I agree that’s probably how this is going to play out; Ukraine cedes some territory to Russia and is allowed to join NATO, hopefully safeguarding it against further Russian imperialism in the future.
In the meantime, we should of course keep supporting Ukraine as much as we can to give them as strong of a position in these potential future negotiations as possible.
Yeah dude, it’s the brand that’s the problem, you’ve figured it out.
After this, everyone will love it.
And as expected, the destructive consolidation of the industry moves forward again, cheered on by consumers celebrating the short term bump to the value of their subscription service.
Seems pretty plausible that the compute required for the “good” version was too high for them to sustainably run it for the normies.
You can’t fool us Erdogan, we’ve seen this move before.
By tomorrow he’ll have new demands. He’ll demand Sweden form a space agency and plant the Turkish flag on the moon or something like that, mark my words.
I was genuinely starting to believe Rocket Jockey was a fever dream I had when I was younger.
It was so good, and I still have yet to meet anyone who played it
A couple of things.
I agree with you.
Instances can defederate from meta at any point they choose, should it become necessary in the future. Until then, it is a huge boon to the more decentralized parts of the fediverse to get content from where all the “normies” are, as well as giving more visibility to non-meta instances and giving said normies a road to the less data-hungry parts of the network.
Yup. Good shows, pretty terrible guy.
Det är ta mig fan helt sjukt hur nåt en ensam person gör kan triggra en sån här respons. Skulle nästan säga att det är en förvånande sällsynt företeelse än så länge med tanke på hur lätt det uppenbarligen är för diverse narcissistiska puckon att få mediautrymme genom att bara bränna en bok.
Jag tycker också att det är jävligt onödigt att medvetet instigera genom att bränna koraner framför ambassader och liknande, men herregud, det här är ju totalt ur proportion.
Vi fördömmer generellt inte andra länder för nåt olämpligt nån enstaka snubbe gör på deras bakgård, och jag skulle uppskatta samma behandling från dom.
Yeah, this is the one I like the most of the current available ones.
I think this is on balance good, but the swedish context makes it a bit problematic in some aspects.
The right has essentially weaponized some sort of perfect utopian image of nuclear as the answer to all questions on climate policy. The unstated gist of it is this: “Since we’re doing nuclear, we don’t need to take any other actions to mitigate climate change”. This allows them to take short-sighted, populist positions on carbon taxation and other “green” reforms that cause more harm than their push for more nuclear mitigates.
So yeah, as I said, this in itself is good, but watch out for the results on non-nuclear environmental policy.
This is one of the few news stories I’ve followed in my life that has made me feel myself physically reacting to how horrifying it is. Absolute, undiluted, unironic nightmare fuel.
Jesus christ, that’s so much better. The insane amount of negative space in the default lemmy look was extremely annoying to me.
Following this on Twitter gives me existential dread.
Anti-vax sentiment dominates the threads, carried by some of the most influential people in the world and an army of blue check sycophants. Genuinely horrifying.
These guys are literally the last people in the world I would trust to regulate themselves responsibily.
