So Tesla’s entire strategy Elon was working was just abandoned.

Continues down the pathway that Tesla is just going to fade to irrelevance.

Welcome to the world of business. First time here huh? Might wanna strap in, this is pretty harmless when it comes to capitalists and its by-products.

It’s probably far more common than most people realize. Open source software doesn’t automatically make it secure, and in many cases can be less secure than closed source as it’s just one or two people doing it for free.

Much easier to be tempted to do something wrong or to get others to help in and take the weight off.

And someone recently told me the Xz exploit doesn’t matter because no developer is stupid enough to install beta releases to prod systems lol.

Laziness and/or low skills leads to a lot of IT failures.

“What do you mean everyone is equal and I can’t just pay to get ahead? This game sucks, nothing like real life”

There’s plenty of products without subscriptions… Including your doorbell example.

Maybe you haven’t actually researched this enough?

The real question is why the fuck is this guy passing for two password managers if not more, especially if he isn’t even using one?

No I wouldn’t pay for the services of someone else when I can get it for free.

I’d pirate it if I could though?

Gmail is still good for me at least. Does everything I want, doesn’t need new features and I don’t see ads or anything.

What more would I get from someone else? I’m not going to pay for privacy at end of day.

This is why I don’t use Linux. Insecure as fuck.

Yep, you’re not wrong.

Sure. But it’s a two way street. Climate change is important but you don’t realistically solve it by stopping everything coal powered tomorrow. You have to gradually introduce it.

I don’t know if it’s a younger generation thing, but they’re not patient and demand change now when it’s just not realistic. Change is glacially slow. Voting in something that’s not ideal is better than voting in something completely opposite.

The more you allow that left or moderate side to win, the more the axis changes towards it, which is still a win if you’re left/moderate as it moves it away from the right. It’s this last bit some people don’t understand.

Why is the onus on the left to vote left to promote left values? Because that’s how voting works?

I’m not sure how to answer that question. Reword it as “Why is the onus on the right to elect a right-wing candidate?” maybe to see.

So many dumb Americans here not voting. Cutting off your legs so you can hold the moral high ground. Moronic.

Hahahahaha.

In 5 years time they’ll whittle the pledges down a bit.

In 10 they’ll remove it altogether.

I get wanting a safe space from persecution.

But echo chambers are dangerous and can really distort your reality. I personally find going from a safe space/echo chamber to reality very jarring and much more conflicting than from a relatively safe space with some conflict to reality.

By shutting it all out I’d argue you are risking hurting yourself unless you can guarantee a safe space in every aspect of life which is very difficult.

We all want them absent. But then it sort of defeats the point of OPs post saying that BlueSky is filled with bigots when the reality is everywhere has them.

Just because you are not aware doesn’t mean they don’t exist.

Reading into blahaj.zoje more, plenty of queer folk are friendly and supportive, but plenty are also pieces of shit. Sometimes you may also not realize if you create an echo chamber what is acceptable and what bleeds into extremist rhetoric.

That’s impossible though.

You have them everywhere including on Lemmy.

Yep. He was the Elon Musk of those years. Great at marketing but an asshole to work for and likely would have started spreading his insane crap at some point to the masses.
