School districts are quick to buy Chromebooks and go “1:1”, but cheap out on IT and cybersecurity.

It won’t just be electric cars, it’ll be all new model cars from manufacturing companies. At least until ICE is phased out.

I just kept thinking of Abode Security

RSS feeds through Reeder on iOS. Get news from outlets like Ars Technica, The Verge, MIT Tech Review, NYT, among others.

On what grounds exactly? Their incompetence is what gave Meta the opening to launch a competitor to begin with.

Yes, it has been fun adding and contributing to the small and bigger communities on here alike. Not to mention that there have been more constructive conversations as well.

I differ with your view in that I’m looking forward to having more people join and seeing these communities grow. As of now, the platform is still pretty niche (which is nice) but the fediverse can be built in a flexible way to give users the power in what they want to see and block.

Twetbot (which I used personally and loved), Tweetdeck, and Twitterrific to name a few. They have been around for a while (some over a decade).

Seriously. Imagine the developers who sunk all of their time, effort, and money to make great and beloved 3rd party apps for these platforms to see it completely screwed over in the span of mere months by people who do not understand what made these platforms unique and successful.

No one knows who or what would come out of a power vacuum, but history tells us it’s usually a more hardline and extreme result. With some of the reports coming out of more hawkish elements within the Russian government adding more and more pressure on Putin to take further measures in mind, it can be a major cause for concern.

Just cancelled prime a few days ago and yea it was a pain. I love all the small shady crap like using a grey text box for the “cancel membership” button and the blue one for “resume membership” followed by another page full of reasons why you shouldn’t cancel and double checking to make sure you know your losing the benefits. I swear it might’ve been a total of 4-5 pages.

Side note, more companies need to be held accountable for this as well. There are a lot of streaming services that do the same thing.

What really did it for me was Huffman’s quote on how “Reddit users, communities, and discussions are one of the largest data sets that cannot be given away for free” (summarized quote).

The rumored IPO made an entire corporation do a 180 so ruthlessly and clumsily in a way that I have never seen. It’s destroying itself and rightfully so.

Exactly. Reddit itself should be a case study. Lemmy and Kbin offer an opportunity to build something great and learn from what made current Reddit (the good and the terrible) what it is and some things to avoid.
