  • Not necessarily: the company can choose to absorb part or all the tariff, since the demand would drop at the higher price anyway, and they might make more overall profit at a lower margin per item. But generally yes, most of the cost will be passed on to the consumer and prices will increase on average.

    Example:

  • Plot twist: the person writing this is President Musk and the employee he's referring to is Trump.

  • I just got downvoted for asking for an example of this. I have been using Lemmy quite a bit in the last month (way more than I should) and I have never come across what you're talking about. I might be wrong, I haven't seen all the posts created on Lemmy, that is why I'm asking for an example.

    If I make the claim that 4chan is full of racist, nazi fucks, that is easy to verify and provide examples of in a few minutes. Similarly, the burden of proof should be on the one making the claim.

  • There's multiple sorting types that you can choose for your feed. How do you want your content ordered?

  • Why the past tense? Is Kbin dead?

  • Any examples of this? It sounds terrible and should be addressed.

  • TLDR: "we should be able to steal other people's work, or we'll go crying to daddy Trump. But DeepSeek shouldn't be able to steal from the stuff we stole, because China and open source"

  • I've been saying this for years, but the general mood still hasn't shifted against Discord. People were actually amazed back when it added... forums. But now if the company is going public the enshittification is imminent.

  • Yeah, sorry that we exist. Kinda hard to ignore when your shit politics drag us into it.

  • Clearly not 100%, since somebody is explaining it

  • This comic would have been perfect if the guy's hat just had MAGA on it, easier to get the message across

  • Yes, use a niche platform where you can preach to the choir of 10 people, rather than the place where you might influence millions of views. Great suggestion!

  • Is there any actual evidence that they are getting closer to AGI? It seems ridiculous to think that this LLM parrot bullshit is getting there, when the thing can't even learn the rules of a basic sum.

  • From what I understand, Bsky didn't actually provide much (if any) OSS code to create the federated apps, just the protocol. So there would need to be tons of work done to create it. Some people were (rightly) pointing out that time might be better spent improving existing solutions like Mastodon, rather than freely providing more value to a for-profit company.

  • Exactly. I've curated my Mastodon feed way more than Bsky, and still, it's incredibly boring. Great if you want to use socials less.

    It also tends to overvalue new stuff, so whoever screams the most occupies the most space in the feed.

  • This is after borrowing millions from The Bank of Daddy. Without his parents wealth, he'd be nothing.

  • Bro, put those man tits under a Tshirt cause that looks like a serious burn

  • It's a pretty cool concept, and I enjoyed building one in Dyson Sphere Program, but I don't really understand how you would transport that amount of energy to where you need it. Are they like mirrors that redirect and focus light to some point?

  • Not Hitler directly, but this is the same quote that Norwegian far right terrorist Breivik included in his manifesto before killing 77 people. Hitler was also a big fan of Napoleon. Similar flies buzzing around the same shit.
