I thought the narrator sounded familiar. Their videos on displays of different kinds are utterly mesmerizing. What an unreasonably high quality channel.
A report from The New York Times details yet another luxury obtained by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas using funds from a wealthy associate.

Reminds me of an episode of Common Sense by Dan Carlin from yeeears ago that basically said "the system is corrupt and voters aren't able to command our politicians to do what we want, so what if we just pool money together and bribe them too?"

Wow this is huge! Most of my experience with Inkscape has been modifying designs for cutting with a Cricut and 1.3 has a handful of game changing features that were sorely missing.
It’s incredible how much the prices have fallen and that’s how it should be. Sure, I bought the 960 close to launch but still the difference is staggering....
Samsung has always seemed like the reliable (albeit expensive) option to me. I personally went with a 2TB Sabrent NVMe because it was on sale and it hasn't failed me yet.
It's been a long time since I was on blind but I recall them asking you to provide your work email to verify your employer. Don't recall them actually sending anything so not entirely sure how it verified. Blind is definitely a mixed bag of a platform, super toxic with people dick measuring over TC but also decent for getting word of what's coming your way (layoffs, etc)

I make a mental note to avoid a company and their products whenever I see an ad. If I want your thing, I will seek it out. You wanna entice me to buy it? Go make your blogpost demonstrating why yours is better than the alternatives I'm looking at.
YouTube disallowing adblockers, Reddit charging for API usage, Twitter blocking non-registered users. These events happen almost at the same time. Is this one of the effects of the tech bubble burst?
Kind of? It's certainly companies actively moving towards shittier services at the same time as others, but I don't think it's as much of explicit and intentional collusion as it is high school clique prom politics and VC money drying up post rate hikes. There's more of a focus by investors on generating profit over growth at this point because money is no longer free. The safest play for a lot of these boardrooms is to not stand out as a company not realigning priorities to reflect this.
Facebook did layoffs? Okay we have too as well or we're not in the same big boy class as facebook. ... See? We're safe, money please
At the moment it doesn't seem that kbin has api docs so I'd expect it be a stretch, but seconded. I'd love to have kbin support. The kbin web app is currently sitting where Boost used to in my phone taskbar. It'd be nice to put things back where they belong
Had a blast hearing about Chik-fil-a and still shopping at Target for everything I can. Is there one I have missed? I am down for the collapse of Hobby Lobby. 🍿🍿🍿. See if “HeGetsThat”.
Just joined Lemmy today. From what I understand, there are different Lemmy instances that host different communities. I supposed that to interact in a community hosted in a certain instance, I would need to create an account for that instance. Ended up creating 10 different accounts.
