Dell looking to cut workforce without layoffs.

So, you’re not signing up for the Neuralink implants then?

I kind of get his point about mega corps driving culture, I’m just pointing out that Google did the same thing two decades ago and everyone thought it was super cool (hell, they had a whole pirate themed search 15 years ago), but now it’s a problem because it’s MS.

I don’t know, maybe I just don’t care all that much about this because as a Linux user, MS is a lot easier to avoid than Google is.

Is that MS pirate really so different from Google doodles? He even mentions Google but somehow ignores the existence of the doodles.

I don’t know man, it looks like the lack of focus started well before 2020.

Ooh, I wonder if he’ll sue all the users that left Reddit to join Lemmy.

That dude is really trying to kill his own platform, isn’t he?

No ads when you pause, but holy hell, we’ve been getting DVDs from the library, and sometimes it’s a good ten minutes of crap before the movie actually starts.

That face says he regrets nothing.

Have you been to Facebook lately? It’s like 90% AI spam of “why don’t pictures like this trend” with some body horror Jesus.

Spoiler alert: it mostly involves shit-posting on Twitter and sexually harassing his employees.

As long as you didn’t hold it wrong.

Yes, dark patterns

Maybe I need to go rewatch it.

In doing so, they fraudulently gained access to pending private transactions and used that access to alter certain transactions and obtain their victims’ cryptocurrency,

I guess they never watched Office Space, or Superman III.

Edit: wrong Superman

At least I know the streaming service videos will always be in English.

Also, this new salary is going to be 8x what I was being paid previously.

That engineer was channeling Steve Jobs.

Yeah, self hosting isn’t for most lay people if it’s just a GitHub repo…

If ecobee put their backend code on GitHub, I bet it would be self hostable with docker within a week.

Hey now, he also mentioned gizmodo. Which is about on par with the daily mail these days.

It’s also a Stephen King short story

Maybe they’re not so smart after all.

A way to give Google even more of my personal data? I’m good, thanks.

Is this just a switch to eSIM from regular SIM? Travel sim cards have been a thing for at least two decades.

“I’m the king of the world!”

Yeah, 10-15 out of 1,100 doesn’t really seem that drastic.

Daneel?

over-the-top meddling in online discussion.

Like secretly changing comments that are critical of the CEO?

How is that even legal?

any reporting on spikes in hate speech would cause financial losses.

Puts down scissors and undershirt

It’s been over a decade.

may never achieve profitability.

I’m not an expert or anything, but that doesn’t sound like a very good investment.

It’s been tried

Session, simplex, briar (on Android), I could go on. There are plenty of alternatives to signal that don’t require a phone number.

Looks like knockoff mo-cap.
