Eh, don’t bully some random developer that created an app few people like. It was made for weirdos and those weirdos must appreciate having their own app.

My link for this was deleted. Huh. I didn’t see this earier.

I’m getting an impression that lemmy.world federation has been super slow recently.

It doesn’t try to cater to everyone and there might be controversial design choices. This can mean anything from something great and ahead of time to absolute horrors of user interface design [link removed] depending on your perspective and a particular app in question. I really like what Photon does and how polished it is but it’s definitely not for me.

There’s plenty of arcade games with vertical screens although usually that’s 3:4 screen aspect ratio.

I don’t think this can come from tech media at all, the system is rotten to the core because of ads and widely accepted sloppiness. The only reason they’re looking to diversify is that new gadgets are no longer that different from last year’s gadgets and AI bubble is about to burst.

Good journalism could still come but people will have to accept it won’t come free.

Most of tech media are not journalists, they sell gadgets and stocks. Most of American tech media were a Democratic Party blogs during US presidential election cycle already. Brace yourselves for even more low quality partisan poo-slinging.

Ed Zitron is credible but he’s trying a little bit too much for his own good. My guess is loads of people bought into the hype and are now holding the bags awkwardly and we’re left with smug assholes pointing that out. Takes one to know one ;)

It was sarcasm and I’m terrified nobody noticed (otherwise they’d downvote me to hell for attributing anything positive to Trump).

Or TSMC 4nm fab in Arizona, a complete failure obviously.

„Microsoft stopped building AI data center infrastructure, therefore Microsoft signals that there’s not enough demand” is a valid point in itself but not enough to merit a blog post that’s this long.

I’m getting an impression that minor fame and success went into Ed Zitron’s head because he now brags about those word counts and other pretentious shit on BlueSky constantly.

John Gruber is an insufferable Apple apologist 100% of time but I thought it was an interesting observation that’s worth sharing.

5mmWave being useless in real world scenarios was surprising to many tech reviewers who already got paid to say how great it is.

My comment was as serious as „😤” emoji can be, which is not very serious.

I would have deleted this post after you’ve added much needed context but now I have to leave it up because of your AMA. 😤

His last couple of podcasts were basically his blog posts so it might be a matter of waiting a bit until it catches up.

I participated in the biggest protests since the fall of Russian occupation in my country. I helped people organise and prepare, I joined a political party and ran in local elections. Results? None, because there was no path to those and leadership up top is mostly concerned about their position. It was actual virtue signalling even though I hate everyone who uses this term.

What is your plan exactly? There is raising awareness but are you actually convincing anyone? Is someone unaware of what’s happening? What I’m seeing is that libs assume everything Trump supporters say is wrong and vice versa, there’s no discussion so how can any of you convince each other? It was similar here and we’re still stuck with this setup. In a polarised world people picked their sides based on criteria that were important to them and then pulled into a boxing match between liberals and fascists. You could have even agreed on some things but you hate each others guts to the point where you assume all positions of your political football team. If you engage in those ineffective ways of political activism you’re just going to have people run out of steam for nothing.

I’m not exchanging financial information with strangers regardless of whether it is online or offline. You’re not IRA, you don’t need this kind of precautions anyway.

I participated in plenty of protests but haven’t made any acquaintances. I think internet is a better space for meeting people.

Not to mention sometimes a protest starts peaceful and then goes to shit.

Taking a look at the Tesla protests it’s just no-impact feel-good thing. Liberals have too much of disdain for non-economic violence.

Write down your name and ICE information with a sharpie on your body. Use a rugged phone case.

Don’t bother going to peaceful protests, they don’t work against post-truth authoritarian governments.

I think they meant human-curated.
