GunnarRunnar,

Tried browsing Temu on mobile browser. Fucking impossible. They push the app so hard that the website is basically unusable after few clicks. Compared to them, Reddit's gentle reminder feels like a favor.

Anyway, turned me off totally from the site. If someone wants me to use their app when I'm potentially a paying customer, website or not, seems really suspicious. Seems like my instincts were correct.

GunnarRunnar,

Microsoft is a good underdog because they have infinite money. And a really bad market leader, I bet worse than Sony. It would've been way better for the industry to not let them acquire the big boys they have.

GunnarRunnar,

Not really an advocate for piracy but I wouldn't have any qualms about recommending that route to you.

GunnarRunnar,

I wonder could you interpret this as AI created movie script isn't copyrightable but the actual filmed movie is. That would invite some weird competition, like we've seen over the years with the copycat movies.

GunnarRunnar,

Somehow I don't doubt you've gotten a lot of warnings.

GunnarRunnar,

People are voicing their opinions, what's the big deal? We should all agree with these gamer tantrums?

GunnarRunnar,

Haven't watched the third season since the second season was awful. They didn't understand what was working in the first season.

Getting Cavill won't happen and even if it did, that was just one smaller problem compared to the whole show transforming into boring dumb fantasy. Cavill alone can't save the show.

GunnarRunnar,

Everyone clapping their own backs by helping to write fuck spez in a Reddit game sure is something. Just childish.

I'm thinking about going back, at least as a site to visit between all these new 'reddit-likes', but I'm not going to be yelling like a goddamn child like I'd be above it. Sure, criticism I'll give if warranted but that goes with everything.

GunnarRunnar,

No I mean every job requires skill and therefore they're skilled labor.

GunnarRunnar,

Uhh.. Sounds pretty good to me? No constant spam and repeat jokes. What are you looking for?

GunnarRunnar,

Well look at me, I'm part of the problem.

GunnarRunnar,

3... 2... 1... And a Quran is being burned in Kyiv. Turkey backtracks.

GunnarRunnar,

Probably I won't be sharing tweets anytime soon. Add in the fact that there's no official announcement, they might reverse this in 15 minutes when Musk's next tantrum starts. So why bother.

GunnarRunnar,

For me personally it's more a question of does your money hoarding system exploit people or is it family money that's been made unethically. I think keeping that kind of money to yourself is unethical. And I don't mean you should go living from riches to rags but recognize that you own something to society and do something about it.

GunnarRunnar,

I was going to post a tweet here but found out that you can't view it without logging in -- so not worth sharing.

OC Unlike previous attempts at trying reddit alternatives (like Voat), kbin and much of the lemmyverse doesn’t seem to be plagued with extreme far right buffoonery.

It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit....

GunnarRunnar,

Wasn't it spun off/got popular because fatpeoplehate or something got banned? It was just a hole for shit crawl towards to for their freeze peach.

GunnarRunnar,

This conversation wasn't about free speech, it was about companies fiddling with speech.

Lemmy.ml is blocking all requests from /kbin Instances

I discovered yesterday evening that Lemmy.ml is blocking all inbound ActivityPub requests from /kbin instances. Specifically, a 403 'access denied' is returned when the user agent contains "kbinBot" anywhere in the string. This has been causing a cascade of failures with federation for many server owners, flooding the message...

GunnarRunnar,

Hopefully it's a technical hiccup since every other option feels... shitty?

GunnarRunnar, (edited )

Wasn't the thing about banning TikTok about where they store US user data (and who can access it)?

And afaik EU has similar rule for EU citizens? Someone who actually knows shit, please enlighten me.

GunnarRunnar,

So Greg is just trying find a cure after all.

GunnarRunnar,

So what they're saying is that their nsfw system isn't up to snuff. Maybe focus on fixing that?

GunnarRunnar,

Feels like Spez won't be taking this one to the chin. Let's just see how deep the ship will sink with its captain.

GunnarRunnar,

Well they are encouraging to a degree but please next one of "these" maybe next week? Meta complaints are really drag if they're repeated over and over again.

GunnarRunnar,

And get kicked off day 2 while the threads get deleted. Probably the most effective way is to just open and not do any moderating.
