My balls just got 18% bigger when you said that.

Good news. Anything but fossil fuels at this point.
Damn Dragon’s Dogma is 11 years old. I’m old af.
If you use a private website for your social media we just loop back to where we are right now in a few years. Even if it seems great now there will eventually be enshittification.
I had access to everything legit and still mainly sailed the high seas. I just prefer to have all the content centralised and local.
My wife used to prefer the streaming apps but she really converted and thought I was a genius when we went for 2 months with constant isp internet drops for hours at a time.
I just read through the indictment and while he’s only charged with retaining those documents they do have evidence he shared some of them with his staff as well. In the transcript he even says “As president, I could have declassified, but now I can’t”. What an idiot.
Do you have a source on that? Every news source I look up just shows “willful retention” which is a slap on the wrist offense in recent history.
I think he’s only charged with retention/obstruction. No one in recent times has gotten a prison sentence for retention just fines. If you leak or sell classified information that’s a different story.
That’s me. Besides the ads/promotion/tracking shit pre-elon Twitter was doing pretty much exactly what I want from it. It was mostly for the parasocial relationships not for keeping up with actual friends. I’d get news and announcements straight from the source quickly and even with a verified checkmark to help ensure I wasn’t getting trolled. Now it’s trash.
The difference is using a 2nd computing device as a controller it seems, ie using your phone to cast a video to chromecast.
I actually can’t believe touchstream won this initial case though because they are definitely a patent troll. The don’t make any products themselves they just got an overly broad patent of technology that seemingly already existed (and was pretty obvious) and they go around trying to get companies to pay them licensing fees. And what I read of their patent doesn’t even seem like it covers chromecast, they specify a client device -> separate server -> display device not a direct connection to a display device.
If google really does away with adblockers I expect many more will follow. I’m not even against unobtrusive ads but the few times I’ve been away from my own pihole / ublock browser setup and rawdogged the internet those ads were next level obnoxious. I can’t live like that.
All of us at Lemmy only eat beans.
Yup Twitter was for following people and Reddit was for following topics. Lemmy with all the new users is pretty much viable for big topics now but Mastodon doesn’t magically have all the people I want to follow just because it’s a better format.
I don’t think you are.
My thoughts exactly. This isn’t some quirky record break… They’ll be taking this same photo over and over with more worried expressions soon.
The crimes aren’t quite the same though. As far as I’m aware Trump is charged with mishandling/retaining classified documents and then a slew of charges from trying to obstruct and cover up. He’s not charged with transmitting (leaking/selling) the information. And being a former president really does muddy the waters - because usually the espionage act isn’t trying someone that once held broad authority to declassify information.
The bail system and the law in general are favorable to the wealthy and affluent but these two cases aren’t apples to apples.
It’s important to note how we got here. In old English man just meant human. Wereman meant male and wifman meant female. Over time that “were” prefix got dropped and man now means male but the ambiguous meaning of humankind stuck around. In fact “human” comes from old french “of man”, again the non-gendered use of the word man.
The point is to fix all these problems we just have to bring back the “were”. The progressive werewolves are way ahead of us on this issue.
