This will in no way cause consumers to become angry and absolutely will not cause a giant headache and back pedaling for Meta.

Because we saw what happens with Reddit. People come in claiming to be “moderate”, and very quickly shit like T_D starts popping up. Also center of the road politics in the US has had rights taken away from millions of people in just the past year, and it’s going to continue to erode them from more. I’m not telling you to change your political stance, but I am telling you that people see them as an attack because they have literally been attacked by “moderates”.

Demon79 is what you get if O. Henry wrote a 60s/70s thriller. It doesn’t fit Black Mirror at all beyond the “there’s a twist”.

That said, I loved it. Give it a rewatch but go in as you would for Insudious, The Conjuring or any other creature feature. It shifts the expectations and helps a lot.

They said something along the lines of “the real mission is to test the human spirit”, so if almost seems like the mission was an expirement to see if they could depend on the system for real crucial missions.

That’s the only logical explanation. Their reality has the ability to instantly transfer consciousness, build completely lifelike Android-clones, create artificial gravity. The only way the whole thing “works” is if it’s more a psychological expirement.

I see any “announcement” by Reddit as pathetic attempts to regain legitimacy. Ain’t gonna happen. If Spez is fired and all connections to him are severed I might sniff around Reddit again. But it would be like getting a drink with an ex you’re over. I wouldn’t be there to rekindle anything, just morbidly curious how big of a dumpster fire they are.

I agree Musk isn’t a visionary. At one time I might have argued differently, but with his public face and Twitter disaster it’s pretty evident that he’s just a rich guy who finds something neat and throws money at it.

God I miss that 89 Accord… I was young and it was already old. RIP my first car.

If spez was smart, he’s not, he’d find a way to get musk to pay twice the value of it.,

He didn’t steal Tesla, he bought it. He’s been an investor since the first round. The guy is a complete piece of shit, but he is/was a good salesman. He’s the South African Steve Jobs. He doesn’t create/build, but sells.

That’s actually really helpful. And for once, we get cross platform to PC!

Yeah, but can an ant properly tut?

Shit, in the US the police aren’t even required to intervene.

 

Kbin is the first Reddit alternative I looked at and i liked the UI so I stuck with it. I kind of assumed everything would be kbin. I thought I understood things. I thought it was kbin and lemmy separate but they federated and so I’d be able to access lemmy stuff from kbin. Which I guess is true. But now I’m confused. I look at all, and I see a post in m/main@sh.itjust.works and the post is from lemmy.world and it’s devs. I’m not subbed to m/main, so did Ernest curate /all and add it? Are people cross posting from lemmy into sh.itjust.works? I feel like I need a drawing or red string diagram.
