Off topic: Ok, I’m doxing myself, but when I read “X” I think of the *nix window manager. Please call it Xitter so it’s immediately obvious.

Edit: OK, Twitter then. Sounds fine.

Stupid? Hold my beer while we put the charging port right on the bottom plate, so it doesn’t interrupt those clean beautiful lines while it lays on its side like a bloated dolphin.

Oh great, just what I want! Another projectile vomit stream of advertising. And not just “real” advertising (quick, load another blocker), but a platform where everyone is financially encouraged to scam everyone. What could go wrong?

Thankfully, advertising is apparently against Lemmy’s ToS (although I’ve never seen that specifically stated). When I see a post that is directly selling something, I immediately report it. Fuck TikTok and the rest of those greedy slimeballs.

So, essentially try to force Xitter to the hard right, making it the social media equivalent of Faux News. Anyone with a little common sense will bail, leaving the echo chamber to ferment in its own toxic vapors. Now, if only a Smartmatic incident would occur.

well-being of the business…ahead of well-being of his employees.

Hey, I mean, like, corporations are people too, man.

Fuck Ajit Pai!

Got an email from them about some domains. They say it won’t happen for “at least a month” as the transaction closes and migration begins. They also said:

Squarespace has publicly committed to continue to utilize Google Cloud DNS infrastructure, meaning reliability and performance regarding DNS will remain unchanged during the migration. The purchase is currently subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions. Upon the closing of the transaction, your domain account will be owned by Squarespace but you will continue to manage your domain(s) via Google Domains as you do today, with Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service continuing to apply.

We could call it FinkedIN

Sounds like they scraped every narration by Jonathan Pryce and just tweaked the timbre so it didn’t match too closely. (Not a professional opinion)

It always amuses me how politicians and community “faith based” leaders can blithely condemn what scientists have been warning about for decades, as if they know better (with no training or experience). Anti-intellectualism is the Dunning-Kruger effect applied to politics, known as Populism, aka the idiots revenge.
