Google and Apple are US companies though. I’m not aware of any international organizations simply just accepting the new name like that and I doubt the people in Mexico for example will start calling it that either. It seems like people are making out this to be a bigger issue than it is. Anyone is free to keep calling it the Gulf of Mexico either. I still call Facebook, Twitter and Turkey by their original names too and I’ve yet to encounter a single person not understanding what I’m talking about.

What’s the problem with calling it Gulf of America? To me that just seems like an objectively better name. You guys do realise that Mexico is in America too, right?

I think the idea with carbon capture is mostly that you power it with the excess you’re getting from renewables. Finland for example has so much wind turbines that when it’s windy they produce much more energy than the country consumes. In moments like this it makes sense to put this energy into something like carbon capture or hydrogen production.

I don’t get how this is even worth writing an article about.

This doesn’t really have anything to do with facts, though. Names of people, objects and places change all the time.

Allright. Let’s revisit this in 6 months to see what happened - or didn’t.

I don’t honestly see a big issue with this. First of all: It’s called Gulf of America, not Gulf of USA. Considering it’s a gulf between south and north American continents it’s actually a more fitting name and in no way excludes Mexico.

And secondly, you can just move on with your life and keep calling it the Gulf of Mexico and everyone will perfectly understand what you mean. Nobody is holding a gun to your head and telling you to adopt the new name. Same applies to Twitter and Facebook too for example.

This is just one of the many reasons I have no interest in new cars. If it needs an internet connection then I’m not buying it. There are very few things I need my vehicle to be able to do and having access to internet isn’t one of them. I don’t even like that my truck has automatic wipers - I vastly prefer the traditional ones. Hell, I don’t even need the radio.

Title says 40% of posts but the article says 40% of long-form posts yet doesn’t in any way specify what counts as a long-form post. My understanding is that the vast majority of Facebook posts are about the lenght of a tweet so I doubt that the title is even remotely accurate.

Edit: itt: brain, dead, and fascist apologist Facebook Earth, who just refuse to accept that their platform is one of the biggest advent of Nazi fascism in this country, and they are all 100% complicit.

This is some Facebook quality content you’re bringing to us here. It’s so great seeing this kind of posts on my feed first thing in the morning. Shows that it’s not just AI poisoning our social media platforms.

It’s hilarious how people turn everything into conspiracies nowdays, while at the same time dismissing every narrative they don’t like as a conspiracy too. Just today, there’s another thread about Gemini “refusing to discuss Bernie Sanders” while at the same time it gives the exact same answer when asked about Trump.
