What manufacturer? Name and shame.

CarPlay I can see if there’s an ongoing cost of making sure future Apple updates don’t break compatibility, but it’s very highly unlikely that will ever be an issue.

People won’t switch from driving to cycling over this. They’ll just pick one of the several dozen other car manufacturers.

That reddit thread is a gem. Funniest shit I’ve seen on WSB in a while.

The lawsuits haven’t even started. This is very very bad for them.

I was trying to point out the hypocrisy of branding your instance to be about privacy and security when tankie-glorified regimes don’t respect that at all, and they’re instead mildly pushing people in that direction. Why not use something from the EFF pages on those topics? Nice strawman, though.

Joined Lemmy.ml because it was supposed to be a security, privacy and FOSS focused community

Yep that’s the line the developers put up there to lure people in. It’s mildly disingenuous at best. Having to copy a line from a document titled “The Principles of Communism” just to sign up should’ve tipped you off that something was a bit weird.

Join an instance that has more lax federation standards and subscribe to the ml communities you care about, or get comfortable with defederation and people from other instances discarding your opinions. It’s a choice you need to make.

How do you know if someone is a Linux user? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you. Lump them in with Vegans and Crossfitters.

That’s plan, not actual. I somehow doubt it’ll even reach that level; it’s trying to save face with investors.

While the tech is impressive, I’m surprised Apple didn’t do enough research beforehand to understand if there’s a market for chunky $3500 computer goggles. None of this is really new tech, and I’m sure the sentiment isn’t hard to find.

Because this isn’t even close to the main sub discussing video games.

Why are you using r/videogames as an example to make this claim?

There are at least two more subs that are wildly more popular and have much more activity and substantial posts and commenting.

• videogames - 293k subscribers
• Games - 3.3m subscribers
• gaming - 40m subscribers

I am subbed to both of those last two and didn’t even know the first one existed because it’s offshoot trash.

You’re right. But, the Fediverse is ActivityPub, and Threads is using ActivityPub, therefore Threads is part of the Fediverse.

The beauty of the Fediverse is you can defederate from whoever you want. But don’t confuse that with thinking that you can change the definition and rules of what the Fediverse is.

Trump doesn’t have any policies. He’s a narcissist who spills incoherent word vomit full of dreams of nothing but vengeance.

Greedy little pig boy

Don’t forget about DeadJournal for the emo/edgy kids!

Worth it how? I feel like every post that claims about how much better Linux is after handling a bunch of tweaks and hacks and workarounds to get into baseline functional doesn’t really get into what actually makes it better. After all of that heavy lifting, you’re already at a disadvantage and I still hear nothing of the benefits. I start to wonder if the “better” is justification for all the effort that goes into tricking it to work rather than being meaningfully superior.

Opera IS a Chromium browser, you doofus!

Imagine being this petty.

I buy Monero to have freedom from being watched by banks and governments.

Boy, do I have some very, very bad news for you…
