Haven’t used Facebook in… Probably over 10 years.

That’s the same everywhere. Like here, like on Reddit, like in real life, people have ideas and then say “won’t somebody do something about it!”

Everyone likes to imagine doing something but nobody actually wants to do anything.

Anecdotal example; the beginning of this year proved that Discord is in bed with supplying profiling training model data to ICE in the United States. That made me want to nope the fuck out. Why stick around where every word you write will contribute to the ability for fascist agents to shoot their next victim? Tear apart the next family?

So me and a friend set ourselves to build an as-close-as-possible drop-in replacement Matrix server for all our Discord friends.

Nobody came.

Fucking nobody came.

Everyone recognises the problem, but when it comes to taking a simple action, a dead easy simple action like make an account on a server owned by a friend they’ve known for a very long time, all we got were excuses. “But nobody else is moving”, “maybe I’ll consider moving when it gets even worse”, “I just wish somebody would do something…”

So it’s not Bluesky. It’s humanity.

Well, technically Twatter doesn’t want them either. It’s filled with rich pedos, but since it’s technically against their policies, you still have to get banned.

Making memes about how unfair it is that your flat chested little girl behaving immature looking adult artwork is regarded as pedo content is still allowed, though. Or at least was. I dunno. Left Twatter quickly when Elon bought it.

Underaged looking gooner characters. Not a big loss if you ask me.

I find it rather strange you say this. Bluesky was on the receiving end of a major artist exodus from Twatter. With them came all the progressive ideals that they’re known for. A lot of gay, trans, and otherwise queer individuals who are either artists themselves or follow artists they feel safe with. Certainly not the kind of people who are satisfied with the status quo.

I wonder what’s stopping someone from just making a screen grab of a Google Maps satellite view and feeding it to one of the many AI image generators.

Just like back in 2008 the investors will try to fake it until they can’t and the entire economy will crash over the whole world.

China making a crap ton of RAM won’t help with that.

I mean… Also assuming this is all real, and the rushed schedule doesn’t produce low quality botched RAM sticks that die in six months.

When it comes to products from China, they can be incredible; unprecedented quality for so much cheaper! Or they can be exactly what everyone says they are and end up in a landfill after a short amount of time.

It’s quite the coin flip.

Came here to say this.
