You understand that recalls for minor non life-threatening issues were a thing before cars were even capable of receiving software updates right?

This is not a new practice. This is what a recall entails. The term isn’t being arbitrarily applied. It’s a recall.

Gatsby,

Can you do us all a favor and compile all the articles you want to share about Charlamagne tha God’s political takes into one megapost?

X/Twitter has updated its Terms of Service to let it use Posts for AI training (stackdiary.com)

Here’s the kicker: based on these AI-assigned definitions in the updated terms, your access to certain content might be limited, or even cut off. You might not see certain tweets or hashtags. You might find it harder to get your own content seen by a broader audience. The idea isn’t entirely new; we’ve heard stories of...

X wants permission to start collecting your biometric data and employment history (www.theverge.com)

“Based on your consent, we may collect and use your biometric information for safety, security, and identification purposes,” the privacy policy reads. It doesn’t include any details on what kind of biometric information this includes — or how X plans to collect it — but it typically involves fingerprints, iris...

Gatsby,

Lol eat shit Elon. I deleted my account and moved to Mastodon the day he walked into Twitter HQ with that stupid fucking sink.

Florida Governor Ron Desantis booed at vigil as hundreds mourn more racist killings (apnews.com)

Hundreds of people gathered Sunday at prayer vigils and in church, in frustration and exhaustion, to mourn yet another racist attack in America: this one the killing of three Black people in Florida at the hands of a white, 21-year-old man who authorities say left behind white supremacist ramblings that read like “the diary of...

Gatsby,

I wonder if he’s trying to be Trump’s VP candidate.

I think that apart from Mike Pence and Chris Christie it’s clear that none of these Republican candidates have any delusions of securing the GOP nomination. They’re all auditioning to be Trump’s VP and I guarantee they admit it in private. So I agree with you here. Ramaswamy is saying what he needs to in order to get Trump’s attention and win over the MAGA crowd.

It’s crazy that anyone would think he can and should be allowed to run for President again. The 14th Amendment is quite clear. And the man incited a violent insurrection to install himself as a dictator during what was a purely symbolic procedure. Trump lost, Biden won. Counting the electoral votes on 1/6 was a formality. There was no actual way for him to remain in office so he betrayed the nation by attempting to destroy democracy as we know it in this country. The only place he belongs in 2024 is ADX Florence.

Gatsby,

Two months to the day after the coup attempt. His number was up the second he stopped advancing on Moscow.

Gatsby,

Yep it sucks because I think it’s Kevin Smith’s best work but I do respect him for refusing to buy the rights back or arrange for a deal for streaming rights because it would be giving Bob and Harvey Weinstein money.

For anyone unaware, the film had a complicated release because there was a lot of controversy surrounding Dogma, particularly from the Catholic League, who were pissy about being made fun of. So Disney, who owned Miramax at the time, allowed Bob and Harvey Weinstein to buy the movie themselves. So they personally own Dogma.

Gatsby,

Hmm… I think we need to conduct some exit interviews to gather data before we start making any assumptions.

“Hello, you have selected ‘Delete Account’ is this because you are a Nazi?”

Y/N (circle one)

“You have selected ‘no’ and yet you still wish to delete your account? Why are you lying about not being a Nazi then?”

Gatsby,

duplicates or otherwise non engaging accounts.

Yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if duplicate accounts are a part of this but that seems like it would be a natural part of growing pains for lemmy. The way the fediverse is built would suggest that people who are serious about long-term participation may bounce around a bit. For example, I joined in June but in that time I still managed to test out two other instances before settling on a third that seemed to strike the ideal balance between admin policies and reliable uptime to suit my needs.

The cable for my M2 MBA is braided and the quality feels equal to my braided Anker usb-c cables and I’ve had those for the better part of a decade without any issues. So I’d imagine if these are infact the new iPhone cables they should probably be good too.

Gatsby,

Every last one of these traitors should have to spend the rest of their lives behind bars. They need to be made examples of so that coups are not attempted every time a republican loses from now on. Because the terrifying reality is it would only take one succeeding to permanently end democracy as we know it in the United States.

Unfortunately, I’m sure many of them will flip on Trump for lenient sentences. But I’m hopeful even in that scenario they will still at least face some considerable time in prison.

Gatsby,

That was probably true before he became President but I doubt it is anymore. He spent his entire term lining his pockets with as much taxpayer money as possible… And that’s not even taking into account the fact that he’s been campaigning this entire time to fund his legal defense against the numerous criminal and civil cases against him.

Gatsby,

If he didn’t want multiple criminal trials to interfere with his political ambitions then perhaps he shouldn’t have committed all those felonies?

Gatsby,

Hell, he probably lied to his lawyers, too.

I don’t think there’s any “probably” about it lol. If Trump’s talking he’s lying. That’s just how it works.
