personally, I’m praying for a meteor.

its like they’re gathering all the worst people in the world into a single place.

the law doesn’t protect kids tho, everybody who supports this law has to rant about how bad social media is but at the end of the day the law is only about foreign companies. It just says instagram has the right to do all the same shit as tiktok and the only problem the gov has with tiktok is its not US owned.

News Flash: If you gotta lie about what the law is for to justify it, you’re part of the misinformation problem.

stupid rule that helped cost Harris the election. Fuck every moron that voted for it.

the test isnt particularly meaningful. As I understand it they just test a handful of genes that they suspect were less varied in the past. As a result if you get tested through all the services that offer gene testing you will get different numbers for each one.

I still find it funny people think these tests mean anything. “you have these 7/9 genes in common with Jasper Brittania and are therefore 77% british”

Does this mean X is discarding its neutrality under section 230?

Might as well make “Biggest Donor” a cabinet position at this point

Republicans deregulate banks every time they get into office.

they had it coming

I think they should just force him to disclose his shitty algorithm

Edit: Third party, local moderators for social media should also be a standard requirement. No outsourcing of moderation.

yeah I don’t think a usa based platform is really “long gaming” the fee speech problem. Bluesky now shifting to monetization plans. Its a matter of time until some rich dildo buys it up. If were lucky it will be mark cuban or somebody buts its still grim prospects.

The only way to deal with them is to call them on every bluff so that making a bluff becomes a liability’

x is a government platform now. Sign onto your government social media account.

All those guys who decided to sit it out on X.com (the non porn site) really did a great job making a difference there. Good job team twitter.

we need some kind of “subscribers bill of rights” both to discourage and to check the stupid business models.

I feel like this is a recurring theme for the silicon valley billionaires and we reached “Peak Bullshit” at NFTs and ever since then one thing after another has hit wall after wall

correct.

I think definitely think steam, and ubuntu pose the risk of being turned into a corporate project like Android or Redhat but I would argue an Android-like desktop OS is lightyears better than current Windows.

god everything except linux is going to run like shit in 10 yrs
