What do you mean? Low-income consumers who feel they were wronged have the right to fair compensation through forced arbitration.

(Tonge firmly in-cheek, if not obvious)

Because they Uncare?

By posting this type of shit you are building his platform and legitimizing his opinion.

You are an enabler of one of the most privileged, selfish, and arrogant pieces of shit alive.

Stop.

This goes for OP and Futurism.

People like Altman live by the saying “No press is bad press”, by both ways you can interpret it:

• There’s no such thing as bad press; and
• Not being in the press is bad.

Even if ragebait/engagement-bait. In the end it only legitimizes him.

And I get that by responding I’m also engaging, but I see this type of comment as more of an “investment” than an “engagement”.

They have the top google spots now for just about any question on any topic.

Obviously the next step is to use that position to their advantage – hide the content until the user is logged in. The Pinterest Strategy.

A lot of the OG’s have moved over. From Diggs exoduses (exodi? exodipodes?) We’re always the first to move, though. Digital nomads.

And the ones that would have been on Digg had they been born a decade or more earlier.

Eventually everyone else follows us, the new platform turns to shit, and we migrate again.

I hope the open, federated nature of lemmy prevents that…or at least delays it.

Don’t worry, inflation is making it so a single dollar will be practically useless soon. Literally nobody will give a fuck about coins. A homeless person would spit in your face if you gave him 50 cents, because it’d be that insulting. Coins will have a melt value significantly higher than their face value.

No no no, the backdoor is useful for gaming, not the OS.

The game companies need backdoors for their Anti Cheat, you see.

At worst, someone else will pick up the Slack. At best, they’ll find what Matters Most.

Well. Guess he’s done with that house, now.

What is a “specialty food staple”?

Potato potato. They are joining the shit tier of websites that have “the result” you’re probably looking for, but won’t let you see it without logging in or using their app.

Same reason I fucking hate Instagram.

Doesn’t suprrise me. Spez is such a fucking snowflake.

When I search for things at work, and reddit may have the top result, I stopped clicking them becasue they want me to log in.

When I search for things on my phone, and reddit is one of the top results, I stopped clicking it because now it won’t let me read it in browser, and forces me to use their app.

They got rid of old reddit.

Clearly they are trying to pad their logged-in user counts.

I’m done. I’m sorry to say that I’d rather have an AI-generated answer (that likely is citing the right answer on reddit anyway) than to give reddit the satisfaction of making me open their app or log in.

Fuck them.

Fuck spez.

Would have to be pirate radio. You think this fcc is gonna be handing out licenses to left-wing secular media?

Must go deeper.

Model fly brain out of Redstone. Play minecraft on that.

God that 5% is just such flagrant bait, too.

Yeah, that seems achievable…on the surface.

Except almost every presidential election of my lifetime was less than a 5% margin to begin with. With the exception of Reagan, every single one has been <10%.

That 5% is legit the most important part of the fucking election. And it’s a carrot to draw out “enlightened centrists” who can’t see past their own eyebrows.

If the greens get it, it’s essentially a “thanks for the assist!” from the Republicans, no matter what…because that margin is enough to enable them to win.

And the way this government is going, do you think they’d even see the money 4 years later?

I can’t tell you the next time I’ll need a 50ft null modem cable…but I can tell you it’ll be within a month of throwing mine out.

I think you misunderstand the spoiler effect. It’s working as designed.

The problem is how we vote, not who is on the ballot. As long as the winner is going to be the one with the most votes, then more contenders will mean the winner will have a smaller overall share.

The margin in Florida for the 2000 election was so small that if half of the Nader voters voted for Gore, Gore would’ve been the clear winner of the state and thus the country. Both left-leaning, environmentalist candidates.

But, like you, they let good be the enemy of perfect, and incidently got us Bush, who was (checks notes) much worse for the environment.

Third parties, in this system, only serve as tools of the opposing major political party. They are absolutely worthless for any progress at the federal level. Do you think a green president could actually get anything done without a green coalition in congress, or among Governors?

There are only three paths for third parties to ascend:

• We change the voting system, get rid of FPTP, or
• Third party builds momentum in lower offices, or
• One of the established parties completely implodes upon itself. See also Whigs, Democratic-Republicans, Federalists.

Wdym? Republicans love the Greens, just like Democrats love the Liberterians.

Republicans can thank Nader just as much for Bush as Democrats can thank Perot for Clinton.
