YUP! This is exactly why I’m so passionate about it. Awfulness still happens, but it feels organic like the original days of the web.

Too expensive! Let’s run a campaign saying real Americans buy teslas!

I’d do everything exactly the same, but not be a public assholes.

I’m not personally. I’d run a VPN for others to connect in. Apparently a lot of folks just expose it to the internet and then enforce logins.

rats scavenging for the last vestiges of growth in a world that hates them at the moment. Will the rats compromise or will they eat each other? My vote is on the latter.

YES JELLYFIN! Thank you Plex for enshitifying!

lol that’s the BEST way to get the RIGHT answer on the internet. Put something up, say it’s X and someone will tell you you’re wrong and it’s Y. Easier than asking how to do X. :-D

holy shit! Both of you! PLEASE DO THIS! That’d be AMAZING!

Just checked it’s worth almost $800 BILLION.

Someone should tell Trump that Microsoft is out sourcing cloud business which is worth BILLIONS.

Microsoft promising to build infrastructure in the EU directly hurts American jobs. :-D lol Trumps Tarrifs that scared the world have responded by defending themselves, US companies boosting their economies by building there and then the US jobs will be needed less as the work they’re doing now witll be in the EU.

Trumps Tarrifs have directly boosted the economies of others while directly hurting ours and it has absolutely nothing to do with the tangible goods that Trump cares about.

Ferris Bueller’s Day off was educational!

Am I allowed to throw my channels in the ring?

I’ll put them behind spoiler tag in case people don’t like self promotion

Yes, but I work from home. :-).

Seems like it’d be a crapshoot either way. Reddit and Lemmy.

Rebecca Black Linux came first!

Hey! Me too! Way to stand up with something to the point someone had to call you out in a racist tirade as well! Good job! Keep up the good work being a good person and pissing off assholes for being positive! I know I will!

Excellent Point. If that’s the case though, then wouldn’t other countries follow suit which still limits big tech’s reach and makes them less profitable and less powerful? Idk. Guess we’ll see how it plays out. Either way, I’m staying as far from those ecosystems as possible to at least try to mitigate some of what they do. I’ll never be totally successful, genie is put of the bottle, but we can at least attempt.

Chinese company does what American companies have done for 25+ years now!

Is it time for REAL data privacy laws or are we just gonna keep playing whack-a-mole with Chinese tech companies that get us nowhere?

Containerize everything!

Crypto everything!

NFT everything!

Metaverse everything!

This too shall pass.

Assembly is the only REAL gaming language! Look at Roller Coaster Tycoon!
