That’s true, he’s a case study in poor ethics. Always good to know what’s going on out there.

Why would I think about Jake Paul?

An interesting thing to me is that in China, rather than TikTok, ByteDance has an app called Douyin with built-in time limits and a focus on educational videos. Here, and I guess it’s kind of our problem, TikTok is known for… you know, the kind of total crap you get on TikTok. Kids dancing, stupid pranks, and “here’s how to steal a Kia” etc.

It’s quite a giveaway to a lucky American business. I vote Google because then they’ll get bored with it and shut it down.

If you have extra deductions you can regise it. Otherwise, they come up with a tax return they’re satisfied with.

The problem I see is when the original poster didn’t explain their point of view, but complain when you ask them to clarify.

You can call it whatever you want. Email has been around since the 70s. Bluesky and ActivityPub sure have not.

Accusing people of “sealioning” is a great way to not have to defend or discuss poorly thought out or sourced claims.

Your rephrasing changed it qualitatively. Of course it takes no position on whether Lemmy is part of the Fediverse considering it now does not have the word Fediverse in it.

The mention of email is

Even so, much like how users of one email service such as Gmail can still send emails to users of another service such as Outlook, users may still view content and interact with users on any other instance in the fediverse

which implicitly says email is not considered part of the fediverse by comparing the two.

The others listed are bluesky, nostra and farcast. I suppose we could count protocols that nobody uses…

Sounds like pure hell. I have a question about this though:

Someone is silently laughing off-camera

Fediverse is ActivityPub. Email is not, though the theory is somewhat similar.

The Tesla worker reportedly told the black business owner — beloved by other Silicon Valley heavyweights — that company wanted the pies delivered the following week for an event to commemorate Black History Month.

Oh, so Elton heard about it and vetoed it.

Are you seriously talking about wanger size?

I don’t really understand the question.

Have you checked out the US budget lately?

That guy sure is annoying looking.

I’m kind of surprised people felt that way about AirPods. I don’t remember that at the time. They seem quite mild to me at this point - people didn’t mind wearing regular earbuds around, why worry if there’s a cord or not?

That makes sense… he’s a fairly normal person. I could see using the Vision Pro at a co-working place anyway, especially for someone who’s an iOS app developer.

It does seem like an oddly clunky device by Apple standards. I don’t find the overall idea abhorrent and could picture owning one down the road - perhaps after they’ve had a few years to make the device smaller and less expensive. I have no idea what I’d use it for though. Maybe once there are more exciting games than repackaged mobile games like Super Mega Fruit Ninja.
