“upgrading”

“Resistance Fingerprinting detected in Produce.”

But tiktok is what we should be focusing on…

This should have been settled in bankruptcy court as part of business wind down before anyone got a penny of assets divided proceeds. When it’s not then another legal battle is required to get the company to do what it should have. Such a waste of time and needless burden for society. Unfortunately, regulatory capture and representative funding capture is almost total so now laws will be passed to change it.

3rd type- sees Real wages falling each year, has college debt or car debt or credit card debt or had to buy a new furnace on an installment plan or God forbid wants to take a vacation or or or

Anyway, this person has to try keep climbing or they will lose their car/ be kicked out of their apartment, nothing in society will support them as they “failed at their job and/or must be lazy”, etc.

There truly are some doofuses at every level of organization, the closer to the top people more often are playing the cruel game to win, but middle management are hardly the game theory types–they wouldn’t have accepted their job if they were that strategic as there is no winning.

So depressing to see working class folks going after other working class folks(someone with supervisor or manager or director in their title) because they “have it better”…the latter almost exclusively are trapped in a different fucked up system.

Here’s the VP of Reddit’s community cited in the article, Laura Nestler, preaching super engagement from a platforms most fanatical users to power content for the 90%.

She suggests, intrinsic motivators such as “autonomy”.

She was at Yelp prior, which if you want to look at a steaming pile of a wasted company, man give reddit 5-10 years.

We’re 5 years from someone proposing “smartwall displays” where the entire wall is your display. No more messy cables or creaky mounting brackets. They’ll, of course also have removed the on/off button and you won’t get to control the volume, but just think of the stimulation!

Fahrenheit 451’s technology just around the corner of the next shitty planned community coming soon near you.

Thanks; to be clear, most if not all of this if searchable on the web, it’s more having it easily referenced from within boost’s text entry field somewhere as a “?” Help menu or something so that all users won’t have to do that each time was my suggestion/request from Ruben.

Thank you for the link. It has some examples, I guess that’s what I’m asking for, and obviously what is included could be tweaked based on Lemmy differences, exclude things that are already in the quick format bar, etc.

Yes, I have that (and actually found out it can scroll to the side and there is a quick link for strikethrough!) but I’d also like stuff like “embedding gifs” and other stuff that is not commonly known.

What Musk has done in the last 2 years with Twitter looks a lot like a gangster moving into valuable turf. Granted, he immediately scared off a lot of people but it’s still pretty valuable turf.

Broken clock blah blah

A tax break for “clean energy”, “strategic investment corridor” or “self-poweting companies” to reduce the load on the grid (that a few enormous companies like MS are creating) will be written into law, if it isn’t already, and it will be a complete tax write-off or something so they get to reap any rewards and when AI hype dies down they’ll still have increased profits by reducing taxes. When you win/win by owning the system you just win.

“sorry boss, just saw ‘restart’ and updated the code…that’s not going to cause any reactor problems will it?”

Because they have real data protections and MS knows it’s illegal. Funny how actually enforced regulations protect citizens.

I think a lot of these companies have been going ham because they know something is coming in the US and they want to do all their pillaging while it’s still technically legal and current, monetizable data.

Clippy tips.

Seriously man, it’s a good price, and I have a plan setup with Affirm for payments, you can spread it out over at least a year.

“You better hope I can’t get no bullets on layaway…”

Thank you for the syntax, I didn’t know that. Wish that stuff was in a help box in text entry field or something so it would be quickly accessible so we could all learn it faster.

u/logos asked the same thing, I answered in the thread.

If you’re asking in earnest, the last decade has shown for profit corps know no bounds in using technology to extract, poorly protect, and often aggregate and then will make any attempt to monetize possible–often retroactively. While a dishwasher might not have much data in itself to exploit, if your internet connected TV, Car or phone which is constantly scanning for nearby WI-FI items or networks decided to start cataloguing them…well then that would just be a Tuesday for Google, Ford or Sony right?

The more data points, the worse. More breaches, more creepy facts about us floating around in some creepy company or regime’s stockpile of data to be used, unilaterally against me. Or maybe the next company to buy the current company I’m happy with. Or the next regime that decides people like me aren’t full humans. Between your computer and phone, most people’s lives are somewhat laid bare, but add in car tracking which auto companies have stuck their funnel into during the last 5 years, add in appliances, put Wi-Fi if your shower handle…again the people adding Wi-Fi to things like a dishwasher that don’t need it have only one thing to gain, monetizing your data and selling it to someone who wants to control you in some way.
