Hopefully the Trump presidency is a wake up call in the importance of privacy. As we slowly move towards fascism, privacy becomes more important than ever.

What?! Noooooooooo… Name one time that’s happened!

Godamnit Meta… Lol

I wonder if you could have an instance federated to every other instance just for archived purposes, to save the data on every other instance’s post and comment. Because copies of posts and comments are saved to federated instances, too, right? Or do I understand the tech wrong?

So it could have an admin team but no users, to prevent people worried about spammers and bots joining that instance to get around defederation rules. Maybe it just has a bot that crawls Lemmy, looking for instances to federate to. Could that work?

You can’t do it from the bottom up because you just get racists who won’t hire people, like the black guy recently who changed his name on job applications and started getting interviews. I’ve seen that happen with friends, too.

Thanks!

Thanks!

It makes me want to vote for her. It’s a tough job, only a crazy person wants it. We should only give it to people who don’t want it lol. Like her or Jon Stewart.

Where do you live? I bet the US has a military base either there or within one of your neighbors. Not to mention that the US has caused or perpetuates a lot of wars your country is probably involved in now or in the past, especially if you live anywhere in Europe (who are supporting things like Israel or are in NATO), Australia, Canada, Mexico, anywhere in South America, some African countries, or East Asia. The world reserve currency is also currently the dollar. And they are a major player in all of the major international organizations like the UN security Council (the only part of the UN with teeth), NATO, the IMF, and orgs like that.

What’s SOC services?

Interesting community name. What’s it about?

That’s a big step considering the people who would make the laws are corrupt from lobbying.

I love that they’re treating all the companies equally, like Meta and Alphabet, too. Unlike the US. How do we get EU tech policies in the US? 😭

It’s not China actively manipulating things. It’s the algorithm that was getting gamed by the right wing. It’s not like the Cambridge Analytica scandal where Facebook was working directly with companies that were trying to get Trump elected. It’s more like the pipeline on YouTube, where it’s just algorithms funneling people into what’s popular ends up being gamed by conservative people. In the US, Tik Tok was known for helping the “woke left”, so obviously it’s not the same big conspiracy controlling both.

The thing is, it can also be used for good in that it can show people things like what’s happening in Palestine without being censored by the US, like other US controlled social media has been.

Woah I had no idea. Seems like it wasn’t that long, but still, hilarious.

That’s what I was wondering…

A past me would have 100% answered in the affirmative to change myself, but I’ve since then, I’ve gained some confidence and realized I’m not as horrifically ugly as I thought I was when I was younger. I just need to take care of myself. So other than the improvements you mentioned, I think I’d keep my natural self.

Actually, maybe make myself a little taller lol. That is a huge benefit both in personal lives and in business. So mostly natural self, but optimized and some increased height.

I remember getting lost and giving up at some point. When it was good, it was really fun, though.

But they get more money if people have to rent their games forever than if they can own things. It’s happening with everything really and companies always want the most profit.
