  • Lots of people asking questions about the fediverse over at /r/fediverse

    Jump

  • reddit legally owns our posts and identity

    (Laughs in web scraping)

  • What is the point of fast food anymore

    Jump

  • That's a great find!

    BBQ places in my area have gotten really expensive. Sides are like $5 each now for a small container.

  • Pixelfed just overtook Lemmy as the 4th most used Fediverse software.

    Jump

  • Any entry into the Fediverse is a good one!

    Gateway drug!

  • Different vibes. I am really liking the pixelfed UI.

  • Cloudflare Issue Can Leak Chat App Users' Broad Location

    Jump

  • Ah, thought you meant though metadata. Like a end user snooping through some obscure meta data method (even after cleaning) let's you triangulate something.

  • Seagate Sets New Record With 36TB Hard Drive And Teases Upcoming 60TB Model

    Jump

  • Ignoring the Seagate part, which makes sense... Is there a reason with 36TB?

    I recall IT people losing their minds when we hit the 1TB, when the average hard drive was like 80GB.

    So this growth seems right.

  • How so? Asking out of curiosity.

  • Do you have kids? Do you want to have kids? Did you regret having / not having kids?

    Jump

  • I have kids. I wouldn't trade them for the world. 90% of the time, they're fine. The other 10%, I'm so angry but I can't be angry for long because they didn't do anything I didn't do as a kid.

    Hard to say if I regret anything. Too young and I would have struggled financially, nor was I mature enough. Too old and I would have struggled to keep up.

    You're going to have a divide here. There's people who REALLY hate the idea of kids. Then you have the crazy-ass breeder religious folks who are so judgemental. Asking for validation from the internet about kids is silly imo. Everyone has a motive.

    Rather than ask friends, family, strangers on the internet... Treat it like a lifestyle change. Read books about parenting. If that doesn't align with you, then you have your answer.

    Why is Italians... When it's Americans... I'm so confused!

  • Microsoft 365 sees 43% price hike thanks to Copilot — existing customers safe until renewal

    Jump

  • There are home users of Microsoft 365?

    I'm not shaming but I kinda am. Like WTF is wrong with you? You pay for free shit.

    Office employees don't get to choose.

  • On the internet it's forever

    Jump

  • Key word is "some". And it's not someone, it's a whole group of people. I was part of it.

    There's still a lot missing. It was only because when geocities was going to get deleted, a large group of web scrapers pulled together to grab as much as possible.

    Then, we manually combined all of them to try to piece together this internet history.

    Things not crawled are gone. Things geocities have already been deleted before the announcement is gone.

    The worst part is Yahoo gave the heads up. Most hosting companies don't. And many delete behind the scenes, like Photobucket if you don't log in for a long time. Or forums when they stop paying the bills.

  • Walgreens CEO Distressed to Learn That Locking Everything Up Keeps People From Buying It

    Jump

  • Well in Walgreens: if you see someone shoplifting...

    ask how they can help you open up the thing locked up because I pushed that god damn button and it's been 15 minutes and I haven't seen a god damn employee yet Jesus Christ I came here for a quick trip like wtf I could have ordered this online you fucking morons

  • Google decides it won't comply with EU fact-checking law

    Jump

  • What a twist. In the 90s, the internet forced countries to wake up to the new modern era. It was a combination of American companies wanting both to expand and provide goodwill.

    And now, this new era is going to tell American companies to fuck off.

  • FTC sues GoDaddy for years of poor hosting security practices

    Jump

  • $125k over five years is stupid. That's $25k a year for five years.

    GoDaddy made 4.481B last year.

    For math nerds, that's 179,240 times the penalty.

  • Duolingo sees 216% spike in US users learning Chinese amid TikTok ban and move to RedNote

  • As an American, I can say fuck America because that's my god given right.

    The right to shit on your country is the most American thing ever.

    This guy absolutely harasses people in the real world.

  • Gateway learning.

    I learned Spanish to write love letters in 2nd grade.

    And now 30 years later, I know like a dozen languages at a basic level, but still good enough to be sent all over the world on business trips for free.
