I live in a city of millions and there’s a handful of 24/7 supermarkets around. The few times I’ve ever needed them in emergencies, it was creepy quiet not angry karens.

I tried that. No one ever really joined. I tried posting content, and no one ever engaged with it.

Guess theres not many childcare educators on Lemmy as the reddit community is always super active.

That literally tells the story of a people’s losing their livelihood due to capitalist usage of technology, and targeting the technology instead of the systemic issue.

If capitalism is shit you attack capitalism not a technology.

All the misplaced rage and wasted effort.

Good thing about this is it’s self selecting, all the luddites who refuse to use AI will find themselves at a disadvantage just the same as refusing to use a computer isn’t doing anyone any favours.

Any multimodal llm could do this in a heart beat locally.

And OpenAI has made their shit freely available to run locally, it’s like the worst company to use as an example.

How about corporations fuck off? Let us have our own small slice of people own and ran Internet back again.

Similar for my instance.

I blocked them on my instance last year. Fuck threads and any instance that goes along with them.

You’re showing up on my personal instance as well, so I’d say you’re all good on the Lemmy syncing.

Not sure why you’re not syncing on Mastodon, it might just be a time thing? Maybe check back in a day or so?

It is, which is why you have the RIGHT not to use a public space and push your information out to millions of people. You explicitly agreed to it the second you started doing it.

And if it didn’t? If it’s just a simple piece of software made by two people? Should they drop everything to cater to European demands?

Europe invaded the world, then turns around and tells the world to respect its self imposed rule it enforces on others. We can’t even host our own space on the internet without you invading and threatening us to operate your way. The only safety we apparently have is in our small size means we might escape notice.

It’s utter arrogance.

Eh i still dont think itd hold up.

But more reason to hate European arrogance. Imagine if i could go to say your blog, comment my name and address, and sue you for not going into your database and scrubbing it all. Just another way to benefit big companies at the expense of individuals who dont have the tech skills to comply but want to run their own personal sites.

Actually it is :)

Not located in the EU, not targeting the EU, and under 250 employees means no GDPR to worry about.

If it’s an instance open to anyone, it’s up to Europeans to not participate if they don’t want to.

If an entity isn’t in Europe it shouldn’t be a problem at all.

But if you can keep spamming our (heh) a new site for like 99c a domain name, you could do this a lot despite getting banned.

The alternative is something like FediSeer where you can get sites guaranteed by others and block anything not given the all-clear, but that really harms the ability for new sites to appear.

Mozilla makes hundreds of millions from Google. Every single person could stop donating and they would continue along just fine (Well the CEO might need to take a 10 million yearly pay cut).

What weird is seeing people champion the enshittificstion of FOSS software.

SLPT: Get together with a friend and open accounts in eachothers name and use them for all your purchases. It’s basically free money.
