The crazy half is in control right now and there’s not much we can realistically do. With the amount of Republicans who like the current situation and bootlickers who are indifferent protests or other means aren’t likely to affect anything. Maybe if the US slides into another great depression public sentiment can shift enough to make a change but until then no one should be treating us like a rational country.
Make linux your wife and then everyone will be happy.

Written works are tangible and so have a copyright upon creation, just like the video in your example. That recording posted online “publicly” where anyone can see it free of charge wouldn’t change its copyright. Also private internet sites really aren’t “public” space in the ways most laws would define it, because it’s a server hosted by a private individual. We’re in ruud’s house right now so-to-speak. He has every right to censor us and show us the door if he so chooses.
By posting or commenting here (or on reddit for that matter) we don’t fully waive copyright to IP. If I write a unique poem here and some random person plagiarizes it and sells it I could still sue. But on reddit, if reddit decides to publish a book of “Best of reddit poems” or transfer that license to someone else I’m shit out of luck. On lemmy without the legalese I stand a good chance in court revoking the assumed license of my work and having a positive legal outcome.
You don’t lose your copyright just for posting it in a public space, even Reddit. But you do give reddit a perpetual, non-revokable, transferrable license to do basically whatever they want with your IP :
Found here under “your content”: https://redditinc.com/policies/user-agreement
With Lemmy all that language of perpetual, non-revokable, transferrable goes away to my knowledge. You still wholely own your own IP if you decide you don’t want it on Lemmy anymore.
Yeah but there is a FOSS nature about it. At least ANYONE can do whatever they want with the comments and posts I make public instead of just whichever company pays reddit for API access.
And reddit has some legal jargon about co-owning the copyright to whatever you post over there but lemmy doesn’t so you technically have more protection here to your own intellectual property.
And privacy is a whole different can of worms as I don’t think ruud is harvesting telemetry to sell to advertisers and whatnot.
It’s funny that this news is sparking talks of a reddit exodus, when way worse stuff that they do like monetizing all your data and privacy isn’t met with much outrage.
They’re basically trying to offer a Patreon/OnlyFans option which makes a lot of sense as a monetization strategy and doesn’t even seem that scummy if the subreddit creators themselves are opting into the format.
Ask about a specific error code on a windows forum: unhelpful boilerplate nonsense.
Ask about the vaguest symptoms of a recurring problem on a linux forum: a neckbeard wizard will show up and have you type 30 cryptic commands in your terminal and everything will be fixed.
There is this seeming need to discredit AI from some people that goes overboard. Some friends and family who have never really used LLMs outside of Google search feel compelled to tell me how bad it is.
But generative AIs are really good at tasks I wouldn’t have imagined a computer doing just a few year ago. Even if they plateaued in place where they are right now it would lead to major shakeups in humanity’s current workflow. It’s not just hype.
The part that is over hyped is companies trying to jump the gun and wholesale replace workers with unproven AI substitutes. And of course the companies who try to shove AI where it doesn’t really fit, like AI enabled fridges and toasters.
Everyone has that drawer. You can tidy it with spacers to make it look a bit less hectic but it will still be that drawer full of random specialty shit.
Well that’s not because it’s being downvoted…which is what you said. It’s because it’s being upvoted until it gets censored, which is happening less here in the fediverse than on corporate run sites like reddit…
Nah the issue is being actively censored from the top down on reddit.

Prompt response and open statement about it can’t ask for much more than that. D-link might just tell you to kick rocks and buy a new router.
Years ago I got my parents to switch from internet explorer to firefox by putting IE’s icon over firefox…this has the same vibes. If you have someone technologically illiterate in your life who pretty much only uses the browser…yeah this idea could work.
I think if they catch him they sort of have to. It’s up to the police to drag their heels investigating if they want to avoid that.
It will be interesting to see if jury nullification comes into play if he gets caught and there is a trial. Would at least 1/12 jurors refuse to convict despite the law? The main facebook post about the CEO’s death has a 26-1 ratio of laughing emoji to crying emoji…
I think they also prevent most CPU released before 2017ish from installing as well so computers just missing the proper TPM are few and far between anyway. You can still get around all the requirements pretty easily though.
Hear me out, maybe we should update pots and sms to have optional end-to-end encryption for modern implementations as well…Optional as backwards compatible and clearly shown as unencrypted when used that way to be clear.
It’s default 2.5G WAN and 1G LAN. It also has wifi to use some of that bandwidth.
I have been, Trump’s not really using congress he’s EO banging and violating the constitution and courts are slow to react, if they even will stop him. Even in congress you have to convince Republican congresspeople whose constituents LIKE what’s happening.
I never said give up. Keep trying. Just other countries shouldn’t be expecting this shit to work and the US to magically be rational again in a couple months. We could be under a Republican dictatorship, a military coup, or a civil war in the next couple years for all I know. We’re unstable.
