Ah, yeah, I’m not saying that. I didn’t like that it was a blatant public licking of Trump’s boot, and I didn’t like his intimation that the GOP is now the bastion of small tech businesses (as if the massive open bribes by tech leaders to Trump weren’t happening, and as if the GOP hadn’t led the fight against net neutrality).
An affiliate or sponsorship arrangement is a transactional placement for awareness, not an endorsement of a creator’s views. […] The responsibility to vet who we put our name next to is ours.
I’m willing to give Proton a fair amount of the benefit of the doubt (albeit a little less after the Trump-endorsing antitrust tweet by Yen a few years ago), but this is a baffling set of statements.
“The type of people we pay to plug our services doesn’t indicate that we endorse their message. I mean, obviously it does, but we don’t care enough to manage it closely.”
Wesa got a pink Chevrolet Corvette convertible. That’s why you no liking us, meesa thinks.
Swapping US technological control for Russian technological control? I don’t know to what extent the current solution is dependent, but it would be extremely naïve to just use OnlyOffice as-is.
That’s not the only factor in the die-out of the Neanderthals. Another is thought to be a massive reduction of the population and geographical constriction during the ice age, isolated communities afterwards resulting in little genetic variation, and thereby high susceptibility to disease.
Yup, it’s meant to describe the gradual process of changes to a thing, like a service or product, that are hostile to the user as a means to make extra profit – paywalling formerly free features (or just removing them) is the classic pattern. Changing branding text is not.
Ironic that we’re witnessing the enshittification of the word “enshittification”.
Uh-oh – don’t they know that venerating statues will make them both evil and gay? 1 Romans:
21For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy.
I had to stop myself from downvoting you from sheer outrage, so you’ve got the right community!
I’m so much happier in sunny weather. I’m jealous that you enjoy it being overcast.
Context of backplate tab:
I once worked supporting a guy who’d built a business intelligence system in an old dBase system that was restricted to 8.3 filenames.
The result of the filename length limitation is that almost every output file was suffixed with “anal” as a shorthand for “analysis”.
If he realized, he never let on.
That’s not the Lemmy approach:
looks like AI? no? comment “AI slop” on it anyway, just to cover your bases
Ha, a dichotomy is XOR by definition.
Sounds like a cool book title or band name.
But not both!
I don’t disagree, but by the same token, this is specifically !reddit@lemmy.world that you’re in advocating not talking about Reddit.
That one guinea pig community probably wouldn’t appreciate me telling them not to talk about guinea pigs.
I’m late to the party, but unsquished version:
I’m curious, what’s up with their roundabouts? Did a little searching on the web but only found some complaints about bad drivers.
You’ve got more energy for this conversation than I have, I’m afraid! My general feeling is that you’re understating the platform and the tone of the post, and the political climate in which the statement was made, and that Yen did much the same when he posted it, but I won’t pursue this further.
