I like them already!!

Death to capitalism!

I'm still not sure you got it.

There is no issue in criticizing these CEOs. They are horrible indeed. But they are like this and they have been promoted to this spot because we're in a system (capitalism) which values this behaviour. Not because they're Indian...

It's funny how people will find anything to blame except for the problem itself when the problem is capitalism.

And it's not like we've seen anything odd happen when people systematically blame a particular race/religion/nationality in history... /S

Lol

Although your sentiment is correct, it must be said this DOES NOT give you "access" to him.

Checks with how I was told by capitalist news and movies. Everything good is always capitalism and everything has its always socialism/communism. If it agrees with what I'm told, then it can only be true.

/s

Yes!

It's based on your viewing history.

You can run a little experiment to verify this if you want. Take some subject you usually watch and take some channel your have interest in (and you will keep watching similar videos). Set that channel as "don't recommend channel". After a while (never calculated how long), you'll get recommendations of that channel again.

I also don't get Mr Beast recommendation as I don't watch similar content, but there are channels I need to keep blocking since I like the subject but not those channels in particular.

I was mostly just saying that the "don't recommend channel" approach is not a solution for everyone.

I've seen some of those videos since my son likes him. The issue is that a lot of his content is obviously scripted. If the content itself is scripted (faked), why should I believe that money is actually given out in the end and, again, not just part of the script?

It's not permanent, even if you click on "don't recommend channel". After a while, YouTube will ignore your choice and show it to you again if it feels like it.

Fine, but for those that call it X, there is Xitter as a better option.

Would a quantum computer count as a finite state machine? If not, wouldn't it be an example of something different?

How about we agree to call X/Twitter as Xitter. It avoids the confusion.

Source?

It's funny how this image built of China to discredit anything they do leads a whole bunch of people online to just completely make stuff up on the spot against any positive news. When it comes to the point that a whole bunch of people are just making stuff up on the spot, we know how efficient the propaganda has been.

Mas e o threads tem quantos usuários? Comparado com o threads, aqui também "não tem muita gente usando". Parte das reclamações na época do xmpp foi o burnout do pessoal tentando acompanhar o ritmo ditado pela Google que queria tomar a tecnologia pra ela. E pode ter certeza que a intenção da meta é de roubar todos os usuários e transformar toda a tecnologia em algo para ela.

Algumas perguntas que gostaria de ver sua resposta:

• Lemmy parece ter uns 200 mil usuários. Threads uns 500 milhões e Facebook tem bilhões. Comparado com o Meta, aqui tem muitos usuários?
• Quem você acha que tem mais força, algumas pessoas rodando servidores com seus recursos próprios ou uma empresa bilionária?
• E como faz para moderar meio milhão entrando de uma hora para a outra na sua plataforma que você faz sem recursos?

Eu entendi o seu argumento, mas as pessoas não decidiram bloquear o threads por uma birra simples. É algo que já aconteceu de forma muito semelhante antes com o protocolo xmpp, por exemplo. No caso do xmpp foi com o Google e o resultado não foi das pessoas migrarem para a plataforma aberta, mas justamente o contrário. A Google fez de tudo para fazer com que a versão dela fosse melhor (fácil, dado a diferença de recursos) e de forma exclusiva. No final das contas, o próprio xmpp virou algo exclusivamente deles e o padrão morreu.

Então o que falta no seu raciocínio é entender a visão da meta nessa história. Eles não tem a menor intenção em colaborar ou permitir que mais gente veja isso aqui. O objetivo deles é absorver o que puderem de graça e destruir tudo o que não puder ser transformado em lucro. A realidade é que eles destruirão todo o fediverso depois que conseguirem extrair o que puderem caso não tenhamos cuidado. Não dá para ser ingênuo aqui.

Every time I see a comment about North Korea, I recommend watching "The Haircut" by BoyBoy. You can find it on YouTube. It's just 20 minutes long and it's quite entertaining to watch.

There's a nice part on the video about the "Prison Camps" and "Death Squads" which are applicable to "voluntary donations" as well. It also applies to the "poor people of NK" as well.

Holy smokes!! Part of their taxes are invested in their military industrial complex???

MADNESS!!

This. Trailers are ads for other movies. Some DVDs had unskippable trailers.

Dvd is not better. I hate it when I pay for the content and I'm still forced to see ads for something I purchased. You might own the media, but there are other downsides as well. They actually both suck!
