Sigh. At least the benefits of federation include being free to move into other instances while LW can pull stuff like this (probably because they get the heat from being the largest instance).

Ah, the 4chan method of engagement, right?

The same used to be said for Internet Explorer in the 90s.

Whoever made the decision to bind Ctrl-Q (something right next to Ctrl-W) as Quit/Close Window needs to be shot.

I can be your Guest1234 anytime you want ;)

I always thought incorporating a drawing into legit character encoding is not a good idea.

Seeing how the gun emoji was rebranded into a water gun, I won't be surprised if same process is attempted anywhere in the world.

I'm also against blocking proxies, but we the privacy minded folks are a minority that actually uses vpn or tor for everyday internet browsing. There are lots of bots and malicious actors using our resources to spam large instances, and if I were managing a popular fediverse instance, I too would have been forced to consider blocking vpn/tor, even if I didn't want it.

Ballmer had that energy emanating that just screamed I. Love. This. Company. (screams)

We can point fingers at Pichai, but I don't think Larry Page and Erik Schmidt would have been able to keep Google true to its visions even if they really wanted to. Google simply became too big and successful compared its humble cool techy startup era, no way it was remaining the same all along.

It's all federated, so it would be strange the bots didn't scrape anything off.

They're all trying to reinvent email by bolting something else on top likely an in-house implementation of whatever's hot at the moment. However, the supposed benefits are completely gone once you're exchanging mails with any other email host.

There was the Moro Islamic Liberation Front in Philippines.

That includes stuff like Stable Diffusion that recommended nvidia cards because it uses CUDA to accelerate image generation?

Doesn't make him automatically correct however.

Still better than nothing. Easier for mods of text-only communities to only have text-only posts submitted.

I fucking love my b/w laser printer. No bs, plug and print, nothing else.

Very nice. More nice flags instead of Vitamin Supplements.

It reminds of 90s almost utopian view of how internet will shape humanity.

I don't understand the craze of slapping wifi or bluetooth connectivity to everything without giving proper thought. Cameras, television, vehicles, coffee pots, medical devices, laundry machines, hipster juicers... what's next? Is my salt shaker going to have it?
