Insert Bond Villain Plot™ where he’s secretly buying all the EMP-hardened server parks in the world, and it’s getting ready to orbital-nuke everything except Shitter servers back to the stone age.

And of course he will brick every phone and computer everywhere, so nobody will be able to use Shitter, but God damnit, it will be the only site left!

Ah, pedantry. Snubbing OP for using the word ‘opinion’ instead of ‘advice’, which, given the context, should be synonymous here. Got it 👍

What an odd question. May I ask why you posed it (serious)?

There seems to be some sort of snub in it, but I can’t figure out who the target is.

Is it not common sense to ask for advice when you’re unsure of something?

What’s so good about this particular acquisition failure is that Figma is actually a really good product, and Adobe would most certainly have fucked it up.

…and there was much rejoicing ❤️

What’s Unicorn SmartNews? 😳

Maybe it should be a requirement to preserve original headlines at the bottom of the article if they change it.

OK, not requirement, who would ever enforce that, but it would be a nice trend, if nothing else.

Isn’t this a misleading/clickbaity title? 🤔

The title of the article is “Twitch quickly reverses policy that “went too far” allowing nudity — Twitch confirmed its policy banning nudity was sexist.”

Not that I care much about Mastodon either way, but you had me up to “Go back to Twitter” 😳

Nothing can be that bad, and even if it was, that doesn’t magically make Twitter any less of a teeming shithole, surely?! 🤯

Yeah, I’m on Fedora/KDE, maybe that’s the issue 🤔

Fun twist, the Linux laptop is actually a beloved Chromebook (the fantastic Asus C302) that Google EOL’d and that I then converted to Linux 😅

Obsidian user with self-maintained vault sync across MacOS, Android and Linux, reporting for duty! 🙄

Gave up on Google Drive, MacOS and Android worked perfectly, Linux was a complete pain and never got it working properly. Screw you, Google, get your shit together and support Linux, already! 😡

Weird, I didn’t even know they were connected 😳

Good point, although it doesn’t look like it’s working out perfectly for you 😅

Swiping all the way to the bank. I cannot wrap my head around people who tap out each letter. It’s like people standing in line at the supermarket instead of using the scan-it-yourself-and-self-checkout app. Why???

“… corrupt Mozilla Corp …”

Could you elaborate?

Agree 👍

And some would say Elon succeeded with the cesspit.

Meta, for anyone trying to resist clicking: it’s a Top Gear clip featuring James May and Jeremy Clarkson, possibly the origin of “Oh no! Anyway…”

It’s quite good ❤️

Reddit has high inertia 👍

From Wikipedia:

“Meta” had been registered as a trademark in the United States in 2018 (after an initial filing in 2015) for marketing, advertising, and computer services, by a Canadian company that provided big data analysis of scientific literature. This company was acquired in 2017 by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), a foundation established by Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan, and became one of their projects. Following the rebranding announcement, CZI announced that it had already decided to deprioritize the earlier Meta project, that it would be transferring its rights to the name to Meta Platforms, and that the project would end in 2022.

So, they bought it through their (non-profit?) foundation and killed it to harvest the name?

Which one is that?
