Its stack, it doesn’t matter what the question is, the answer is “fuck you for asking”

Any time I look at Facebook or X(formerly twitter), I see two sides of the same shit-smeared coin.

On Facebook, feels like a majority of the random comments I see are all scum of the earth, racist, sexist, fascist etc. Every post about a new marvel movie is filled with comments about how the movie is going to be ahit because of “forced diversity” and “wokeness” - any political post is all about how dems should die, or aoc needs to be murdered, etc. And it’s never just a few people, its dozens, with hundreds of likes and supporting comments.

On the other site, it’s mostly blue-haired “bleeding heart liberals” who are so liberal they’ve come full circle back to fascism. Trying to restrict people’s rights because they have some shitty ideas, or completely ruining people’s careers over a rumor.

Before social media, you would be forced into public places to have these conversations, and you’d be forced to interact and learn what people who don’t agree with you have to say and think, and that broadened your worldview. Now facebook and xitter just feed you into an algorithm and spit you out in a bubble with other people with the same ideas, because you’ll all agree and converse and engage more, because there’s positive reinforcement there, and from that point its a feedback loop slowly making you more liberal or conservative, when typically most people would fall pretty close to center, give or take some hot button issues like guns and babies.

They don’t care that you have a family. Executives commonly say things in their shareholder calls about “extracting more value” from people or something along those lines.

They don’t care if it’s one person or twelve, they just care that people are still buying their products, and that the revenue they gain with price gouging is higher than the revenue lost by people fucking starving and not being able to buy anymore.

It’s not even about money anymore.

I’m not positive that the world is going to be a comfortable place to live in at all in the next 40-80 years. I can’t be sure it’s morally acceptable to bring a new life into the world just to struggle until death. I know if I were given the choice I would have rather just not have been, it’s not worth struggling forever just to barely get by until the game changes yet again and you get knocked back down to the peg you started on.

Do you really want an adversary that can potentionally disable a large portion of your populations computers in one fell swoop?

Just saw a Netflix movie about this a month or so back. Obviously the writing was a little embellished, but it was fucking terrifying to imagine something like that happening on a real scale.

There is a chance that it has something to do with the Xbox app, maybe

I just mentioned the other day how scary that is if a third party can crack it and just got blasted about how Microsoft wouldn’t put an OS out with vulnerabilities like that lmao

Executives chasing profits with data they don’t understand, or the show just sticks around too long.

From what I’ve heard it would have been multitudes worse if Cavill wasn’t so passionate about the source, too.

I find it particularly funny to call it X(formerly twitter) every time I have to mention it.

Also kind of love how Dubious X is as a name cause I always think it’s a porn site before my brain clicks

Would love to if my favorite games weren’t all EAC locked on linux

I just checked and the tiktok app has no access to anything on my phone lmao. It literally cannot access any of this data, unless you’re uploading videos then it will use your pictures.

Plus, even IF youre right and the app is somehow circumventing all of the rules the app stores require to even be on it, AND somehow Google and Apple are incapable of figuring out that the app is malicious AND they also for some reason don’t remove it for breaking those rules, I’m just some dude looking at stupid memes. China isn’t getting anything I care about.
