What do the capitalists expect to happen once they automate all the physical jobs and all the desk jobs? Do they just expect us all to die?

They lobby extensively against UBI-type initiatives and god-forbid any actual communist/socialist change be suggested.

Do they want us to die?

My first laptop was an Ubuntu machine with no battery when I was 4. I had no idea what Linux was, I just played the games my uncle had pre-loaded onto it.

It does, it’s completely anonymised tho, and they pull in results from Yahoo and other sources (even Yandex). So while they do use the Bing API their results can be pretty vastly different from Bing’s.

Lots of other search engine options.

Kagi seems good.

I’m currently using duckduckgo and it’s roughly as good as google search at this point. I remember it being considered a joke when it first launched.

God forbid, bing is also an option.

Forgive my ignorance, but what did he do?

I agree it’s not a justification. I just think it’s worth pointing out the hypocrisy when Elon has been platforming Chaya Raichik, who does the exact same thing (to private citizens who have done nothing wrong, mind you).

The right has been doing this for like a decade now.

Spoiler alert: Biden isn’t left wing

Yes, I’m sure failing to defend democracy will result in it being eroded. Of course people can use this to their own personal advantage and claim democracy is at stake when it is not. Voters need to be well informed to discern whether those claims are legitimate, or not.

I don’t think anyone reads “X ban” as sending people to offshore “entertainment” facilities. Lol.

Democracy: good. Destroying democracy: bad. Still too specious for you?

VPNs exist. All blocking of websites is just a slight inconvenience at the end of the day.

Because we have to defend democracy or it will be eroded. We should not stand by idly as misinformation and corporate interests continue to cripple it. Just because people are voting against their best interests does not mean they are no longer their best interests.

History in the making. This is what open source is all about.

there he is. Vinny.

I don’t think they would do that unless Lemmy continues to grow to a point where it challenges Reddit. Then it becomes a technical issue. I don’t think they can do that. It was one thing for threads to do it, being designed with that in mind from day 1, but it’s completely different for Reddit to do it. There are so many features that just wouldn’t make the jump, and so much content that would need to be reworked.

If they were going to do it, it would most likely be a clean break where you just can’t access old Reddit content on Lemmy, but all their new stuff would be accessible.

I also just don’t see them giving away their content like that after cracking down on the API how they did.

Big fan of this series.

Hell yeah bro same. I’ve been amazed at how much better Linux is in just about every way, except for native software availability, but it’ll get there. I feel like Microsoft is approaching the tipping point for shit people will put up with, and desktop Linux is so good now that non-technical people can move over to it.

Fair enough. I didn’t know that. Hopefully they don’t abuse their position, but at least it’s not a full ownership situation I guess.

Fedora is upstream of Red Hat now. It’s developed by the community, then IBM/Red Hat steal it lol.
