I do it all the time

That’s like saying the guillotine must not inconvenience the head of the rich

YES. I would federate a car. Not sure about other people.

America used to tax billionaires already in the 1900s. Nothing new to invent here.

daycares have kids on Sundays?

to clarify I should have just said curd in the first sentence. However a lot of people outside of Asia are not aware. For those people “Yogurt” is the nearest thing. However the bacteria/yeast used are quite different.

I used to churn butter out of fermented milk (Curd) by having the lunch bag containing the bottle of curd sit in my bicycle basket as I rode to school some 7 km away on bumpy roads.

the linked article is completely different to the title

Excuse me, please don’t insult actual companies with actual products with these excuses.

“Server Running Costs” Ha! my wrinkly scrotum with attached server costs would be easier to defend on the balance sheet than what the folks at Meta did.

before creation must come destruction. And if you think destruction of kindness and empathy; replacing it with oppression and violence, is not happening constantly then I don’t know what to tell you.

so just do a ship of theseus with society

We can definitely agree to collectively come together and assess every now and then if the best methods we decided last time are still good enough. Tweak stuff as we learn more. The workload to learning ratio can definitely change for homeworks.

I got shocked the other day stepping on live wires… I now have a degree in Electrical Engineering. (Actually Not: My experience is not the same as expertise)

you mean porn and evidence?

I guess i butchered my complaint. I was thinking of migrating accounts or one account for all instances or something like that. Multiple signups are still a bitcannoying. Although it only matters for defederation corner cases and instances closing up.

Ok i butchered it.

I was thinking of federated accounts, not participating in posts across the fediverse.

when you want to migrate instances, its annoying to create the same account name again and again.

That we still can’t use a single account to comment and post outside of our home instance is the most frustrating part of the fediverse and the main contradiction to “you just need one sign up”.

We’re forced to speculate due to a lack of insider knowledge

You mean you want people to believe unsubstantiated claims that lack evidence?

but we can use context clues like the fact that other nations are using social media for the same purpose and it originating in China, a fellow world superpower, to reason that they would be using it for similar purposes. Why wouldn’t they be using an effective tool like this? This stuff isn’t being created for altruistic reasons.

Still don’t see any argument that justifies substituting “could/would” with “is” except vague notion of “we do it, so they’re definitely doing it”

as a CS grad and having worked in software for 10 yrs… this is just delusion.

this claim is totally different from “TikTok is Chinese propaganda”.

“Could/Would” is not the same as “is”
