What’s the difference between Reddit and Lemmy culturally? I thought that the people who moved over here held opinions fairly typical of Reddit.

Yeah 100% I was getting this thought.

Shares somehow up today

Risk of forks of a FOSS project that turn out to have added a vulnerability I think is the point.

Trump is so good at making deals happen.

A few more quarters of this, and the Tesla hype value will surely die.

I wouldn’t challenge this view for Musk, Bezos, Trump. But Zuck gives me more of a “reformed (now married) incel that comes from an otherwise normal family environment vibe”. His marriage seems at least typical, likely loving etc.

His product happens to be the most harmful for democracy and I consider him equal for worst of the bunch as a result, but I think it’s explained by corporate/personal greed and being out of touch with reality.

Financing the continued development of Firefox is the motive.

Even then, you know that these glasses are going to be priced in such a way that is subsidized by data harvesting somehow.

Absolutely. If you’re privacy focussed enough to use Firefox then you can change a default browser in minutes if not seconds.

The internet runs on either ads, data harvesting, donations or the goodwill of solo developers. Firefox cannot generate revenue with ads or data and currently gets money from donations via Google and other companies. Are you expecting goodwill?

This and the GTA6 release date announcement today is a good news day.

He’s right, and none of my friends even post to Facebook anymore (neither do I).

Look up Al Gore vs George Bush Jr. in 2000. The lack of a preferential voting system meant that Bush won Florida (and thus the election as a whole) because votes were split on Gore and a left-leaning independent, leaving Bush with the most votes (despite all the greens voters almost certainly wanting Gore over Bush).

Excellent news

Cards real close to the chest on this one.

I love the aesthetic. Pastel colour palette against the speckled darker base looks amazing.

I use a G915 using the onboard memory with preset G Keys. If I need to change the key functions then I need to go back onto my Windows which is dual booted. Will look into piper as the commenter above did.

Haven’t hasn’t it been shown that people who pirate heavily actually spend more on media overall than those who do not?

Agreed. 1/10 of the posts were from friends for me, and half of those friends posts were from one chronic Facebook acquaintance that I should unfriend.

I went through and unfriended a couple of hundred people that I need not be friends with on the platform anymore recently, and I’ve got to say I was impressed with how little my real friends actually post to Facebook. It wasn’t uncommon to see someone’s last post to be well before 2020 on there, over half a decade ago.

It leads me to believe that the concept of pushing out a comment to the Facebook news feed died a long time ago for the average millennial. People still probably comment in groups, but have set up privacy filters that prevent them from being shown publicly. Stories get used more, but it’s maybe 5-10 people posting the lions share of them.
