It’s not bad though. Zoom is great. Apparently their leadership sucks, but as a product its always done what I needed it to do without issue.

This happened in April…

Taking concern for someone’s well being when it is quite clearly not in a good place has very little to do with the accusations being levied. I hope the right people are at least aware of that and are reaching out to her. I said in my reply the accusations need to be explored.

If you read that full thread it sounds like someone who was let go from a place I worked years ago and just rings of serious mental health concerns. Slicing open your leg so you go to the ER to avoid going to work is not a sign that someone is of sound mind. All accusations need to be taken seriously and explored regardless given their severity, but I also seriously hope she can get help.

It would be nice if they could package an annual booster with the flu shot, though I’m not sure of there are interaction issues. I got them both at the same time last year though and just had a mild cramp in my arm which is pretty typical for a flu shot on its own.

Eris fortunately doesn’t appear to be more virulent than omicron was, but also doesn’t seem to be weaking further as was the trend for the last few varients. It seems mutation with increased transmission over time seems to be the trend.

Just add it to the annual flu list and make your choice as to whether you want to get your shot every year or not. Not a big deal.

Why would this be a bad thing? Doubt it happens at any scale but this seems like a perfectly viable way to cool data centers compared to how energy intensive they are today.

Can’t wait fot Nintendo’s next console that will be severely under powered and basically obsolete as soon as it is released. Used to love them but they have become so toxic and tone deaf.

Arrest these people once they are uncovered and send a proper message to China that this shit will not be tolerated.

I’m with you. If we keep migrating to something else we’ll never actually settle to create a real community. I’m sticking with Mastadon. It’s grown into something pretty stable and decent at this point.

The Gulf Stream will probably collapse and be reshaped eventually. We’ve known that for quite some time now. Fortunately, this doesn’t seem to be suggesting anything new or any genuinely imminent threat.

Lemmy/Kbin really don’t function in a way that make megathreads work though. This won’t work here and we can’t be thinking about trying to adopt Reddit behaviors in a platform that works very differently. Unlike Reddit, there isn’t a singular community around Technology. There are dozens that we can all see built across every instance. I had to scroll just to see I was looking at the Beehaw one.

I believe his main goal is turning Twitter into something of an “everything” site where he’s looking to combine the likes of Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Discord, and Venmo/Paypal into a single service. I don’t know if it was his goal when he bought it or if it has any chance in hell of working, but that’s something he at least said (while probably drunk) fairly recently.

Why are you even there still? Mastadon has been a solid alternative for me for a while now.

I’d prefer not to leave Apple with pretty much no competition in mobile OS if Android were to fail, unless we’re just referring to Google the search engine, and not the parent company Alphabet.

My growing concern for this community surviving is that it develops its own identity. My fear is that it’s becoming a dumping ground for Reddit infighting and not much else. Obviously, it’s early days still, but I don’t quite remember this when migrating over from Digg years ago. I feel like the community mostly just made fun of Digg and went on to post new and engaging content. This feels different, and not in a good way.

You’re looking at it from the wrong direction. It’s what age is the cut off that gaming was the norm growing up, and therefore remains a part of the culture at any age. I’m 38 and most people I know, both men and women, are into some type of gaming. I feel I’m already fairly close to that line so if you’re looking at just a decade ahead, you grew up in the 70s and early 80s when gaming was just truly making it’s first rise. For my generation in the 1990s though it was almost an expectation of childhood and making friends. Looks like you have to start dating people in their 30s.

This is tremendously helpful thanks for posting!

I wouldn’t say currently because I deleted it after moving to Kbin, but I was using RIF for as long as it existed and was a daily Reddit user for over 12 years. I’ve been happy using Kbin though this past week and have quickly seen subreddits migrating over and a lot more activity just in the past few days.
