True, politics makes Musk a tribalist issue.

Anti-semitism is a real thing, but Israel-Palestine has always made it harder to understand. If it is truly anti-religious or just questioning Israel gov’t and actions.
Seems like a smear of Musk for not siding with Israel and instead calling for a ceasefire or peace.
Looking at the talk Musk had with Lex Fridman.

Seems like a positive, good on FCC.
Seems to not be a race problem, it is more on working class vs. wealthy class problem.
Wealthier neigborhoods vs. working class neigborhoods.
Interesting news to follow, can’t wait for independent yters and the like to start commenting on this.
Talking about being a pirate in the high seas.
Torrents and 3rd party sites, and such.
Seems like some people will learn more on how cars work so as to disable the features…
“Many car manufacturers are selling car owners’ data to advertisers as a revenue boosting tactic, according to earlier reporting by Recorded Future News. Automakers are exponentially increasing the number of sensors they place in their cars every year with little regulation of the practice.”

Thanks for sharing!
Looks like this is the norm now, Technofeudalism is here, goodbye capitalism.
Following the censorship over the years, looks similar to what happened with legacy media (main stream media).
Quote included in post:
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” — C.S. Lewis
In short, the Internet opened the door to a much larger, more diverse, and more vibrant world than I would have otherwise been able to experience; and enabled me to be an active participant in, and contributor to, that world. All of this helped me to learn, and to grow into a more well-rounded person.
In recent years, it seems like the whole world has become more ornery. Maybe that has something to do with the pandemic, or with political disagreements. Whatever the reason, people have become faster to attack, and slower to recognize each other’s shared humanity. One aspect of this has been a constant barrage of attacks on communication services, Omegle included, based on the behavior of a malicious subset of users.
Fear can be a valuable tool, guiding us away from danger. However, fear can also be a mental cage that keeps us from all of the things that make life worth living. Individuals and families must be allowed to strike the right balance for themselves, based on their own unique circumstances and needs. A world of mandatory fear is a world ruled by fear – a dark place indeed.
Unfortunately, what is right doesn’t always prevail. As much as I wish circumstances were different, the stress and expense of this fight – coupled with the existing stress and expense of operating Omegle, and fighting its misuse – are simply too much. Operating Omegle is no longer sustainable, financially nor psychologically. Frankly, I don’t want to have a heart attack in my 30s.
Off topic thought I had when I saw this, more on the system being the problem.
This made me think of an interview with Richard Wolff and Lex Fridman.
Richard tries to explain his views on Marxism and Communism, #295.
He mentions problems with academia, and how it is tied to the corporate world.
Around 1:41:00, gov’t/academics/corporations are all tied together in keeping the same system going.
To try and get back to topic, it may have to do with the kind of people needed to excel in competitive areas like a university/company/government.
Less on taking care of people and more on competing with each other to be the best…
Reminds me of sports and the fierce environment it produces. Some people adapt and become like them or they feel isolated.
Haven’t thought of small phones in a while, unless you look into dumb phones, like Nokia 3310 reboot.
Great little phone, but does not have smart features that smart phones have.
Nice to see the sizes being compared, I was not expecting it, but wow have phone become huge.
I wonder if Pine64 or similar would create a small phone, they have launched phones before…
Thanks!
The picture was shared on other social media sites, I did not see it mentioned in Lemmy or similar.
Saw this pic floating around.
edit: added questions and thoughts
Archive link not working on my end.
Do you think the bot issue is the real reason?
Many other social media has bots, what is different from all other places?
The elite do use Twitter for politics and news, though. Media people will stay so as to not be out of the loop and others will just be lurkers…
It seems to be a pay wall, for sharing opinions, so I think people will gravitate to supporting certain people that share their views. Hard to tell what will happen though…
I’ve been lucky or my extensions/network have kept me from seeing any notices.
Alphabet (Google) through yt does block IP, refresh or change fixes it.
True.
Many will help the people they like with donations and other ways instead of helping Alphabet (google) and the like.
You are welcome!
Use alternative yt front ends? YT Vanced, PipePipe, YMusic, and so on…
Firefox with exentions or on PC?
I have not seen any of this on my end, my IP does get blocked though, I just change it.
I wonder how they are rolling it out.

I prefer dots over spaces.
Spaces can mess with stuff, double space…
