Any platform that believes it should be their choice whether the user can opt-in to any part of the fediverse, is a big no from me.

I’ve only seen the cross-over episode on SNW, It’s very much not my sense of humour but I’m happy for there to be more types of shows for more people, so long as I get my TNG style shows.

I’m sure they got better, but they never won me back, that original feeling of disappointment is still associated with the games for me.

I see references of previous Starfleet officers such as Worf or Captain Sysco;

With Worf the writers where careful to create a scenario where it was known and out in the open, that the only Federation law he broke was leaving the ship without authority, which he was officially reprimanded over. The actions he took on the Klingon vessel were considered lawful in and of itself.

Captain Sysco’s may be more relevant and example, but to me it felt more like a necessary decision for the benefit of future outcomes. To compare this to SNW S02E08, I don’t feel they outlined that he was a future threat to anyone, that being said I am undecided on the Sysco comparison.

I have also seen reference to Captain Picard’s assimilation, but to me that one is not appropriate as it was against his will.

That’s how it should work, but many services have been increasing pricing with email warnings for the last decade.

My friend has PS+ and it has multiplied in price for 3-month intervals without him ever confirming the new price. He’s had it for a decade without touching it and genuinely wouldn’t know he’s being charged so much more than he agreed to if I didn’t tell him.

This is in Australia which normally has better protections for consumers, but it’s possible we don’t in this case as it’s happened to me with every subscription I’ve ever had they send a n email and then start charging an amount I never agreed to.

The only exception was AEW+ via Fite.tv which was in USD, that was the only time I ever lost my sub when the price changed, which given it went up +40% I was glad they handled it respectfully.

We would need Google to aggregate instances together for the benefit of search results, but the host instance is great to see.

Maybe when Reddit removes indexer access, Google may put some effort towards replacing it, but I wouldn’t give my hopes up waiting for Google Search to get better.

You can buy 7th Gen Intel 4-core with 16GB DDR4 & 128GB SSD for cheaper than a Raspberry Pi 4.

I have both a Pi4 & a ThinkCentre which is significantly more powerful, doesn’t take up much more space.

Venues will just need to implement infrared checks at the door.

AMC, it’s just their horror subsidiary channel.

They are renting server space off a big company, not much different than AWS or Azure.

He owes a lot of money to banks, etc, for the company.

Explicitly closing Twitter would make him liable for destroying other people’s equity. Accidentally destroying twitter while pretending to drastically fix it, while pretending it’s failing against his will and his taking measures to save it, is the only way to kill it without being on the hook for it.

Especially Firefly.

It’s about the server access sellers, but to block a whole major VPS instead of accounts that commit the violation is kinda absurd.

It looks like another step towards further restricting what users can do with their servers, local or virtual.

Most Androids still only get USB2.0, but not the ones that are in the price range of the iPhone.

Edit: Feels like I’m back on Reddit with people not reading my comment, I just said that although most units of Android phones are budget to mid-range, mine being a mid-range (Poco F3), Android phones anywhere near the range of an iPhone in Cost is USB 3.0+

USB 3.0 is already 15 years old.

Retirement fund.

Because they are paying Reddit for that API use, they won’t be getting it for free.

The app has is own API, not for individual user.

They are averaging out the cost.

One year early, so they can make a big deal about proprietary restrictions if you don’t use Apple accessories, which won’t be the case the following year with no mention.

This is the one iPhone left that they can do anything they want regarding USB-C, without being under the new law as it won’t be in place yet and won’t apply to product SKU’s that were released prior.

I agree with the diversification of ownership, it’s too large now for one couple to own outright and be in the best interest as an organisation.
