This is who will get replaced first, and they don’t want to see it. They’re the most important, valuable part of the company in their own mind, yet that was the one thing the AI got right, the management part. It still needed the creative mind of a human programmer to do the code properly, or think outside the box.

There were still bugs. You just learned how to deal with them or work around them.

They’ll just make a fee for having to list their fees, and make the consumer pay for it.

I don’t think you quite grasp how enormously big space is.

No, that is literally solving the problem. You can’t make it clean. What exactly would we need to protect out in space or say the moon? The space whales, or moon frogs? You’re protecting nothing but the vacuum of space and some rocks.

No one give a shit about iMessage. I’ve watched my kids exclusively communicate with their friends via Snapchat and discord.

Have a buddy that will buy 24 packs of that hot garbage for parties or get togethers. Either that or Keystone light. Not really sure why I’m friends with him…

I’ve also been a subscriber for the last 4 years or so and seeing all of this is making me wonder if I’m subscribed to the same Spotify they are. I’ve had none of these issues.

Same. I’ve seen multiple people say this here and I’ve yet to experience it. Makes me wonder if the particular podcasters they’re listening to have opted in to some sort of ad revenue thing from Spotify.

Tax write off perhaps?

Chop one head off…

All this talk of state-sponsored/subsidized news/media gives me the wiggins, at least as someone who lives in the US. I’m sure people smarter than myself could come up with a bullet proof system to prevent abuse, but really, I would have little faith it would stand the test of time. I feel like any protections you put in place would be eroded eventually. All it takes is one “emergency” or “disaster”. Maybe I’m wrong. It just feels so 1984ish.

There’s a joke in there somewhere. I just can’t put my finger on it.

What the fuck is in the water over at the Reddit HQ, lead?

Noooooooooooooooo!!!

It’s me on my Haiku OS laptop. Sorry everyone.

That can change, and already has begun. What made Reddit special was exactly what we’re doing now, discussion. All it’s going to take is for fediverse content to be searchable (if it’s not already searchable) and it’s game over for Reddit.

And it was so valuable and useful because we, the former redditors, made it that way. They’re ruining the hard (and free) work people did over those 15 years to make it useful. The good thing is it’s been shown to be entirely replaceable, and made better by taking control out of corporate hands.

The special (and valuable) thing about Reddit was its passionate users. Take that away and what’s left?

Love Memmy. It just works so good.
