They are very fierce at censoring their IP material, anything that lands on youtube that hasn’t been altered to avoid copyright bot, gets taken down immediately. even shows that have aired the same day.

Yep, even when bing censors something, it gets censored by DDG aswell, DDG is just a fancy proxy.

I have been following the DMA closely, and so far it has been a big disappointment, just as I expected.

The way the EU approaches this walled garden problem, is to try and offer ways for other competitors to tap into the user base of the bigger players instead of trying to allow all EU citizens to chat with any other EU citizen who uses META Products regardless of their host platform. meaning “us” people who wish to self host an xmpp or Matrix servers and chat with facebook friends, It won’t be straight forward or entirely possible for us to do so. unless maybe by doing a KYC with META. and signing up very stringent service agreements.

Meta will be creating all sorts of hurdles the DMA laws will allow them to, to cripple interoperability, from making other plateform signing up to special permissions from Meta, to hiding interoperability settings and making them opt-in, and building a scary rhetoric why you shouldn’t be allowing other people outside of META to get in contact with you. There are some valid concerns, but I suspect Meta will implement the most spiteful procedures they can get away with, then spin up a rhetoric about proving their users being massing against interoperability.

Copilot was trained on FOSS software, so maybe it’s already too late.

Those who buy apple products deserve each other.

You guys are complaining about a subscription to apple and amazon ? go look how much a subscription to an Autodesk product costs ?

I call bullshit on this, This is nothing short of propaganda by think tank that is financed by the military industrial complex.

Putin won’t dare NATO member countries, especially when he hasn’t finished with Ukraine.

I don’t know where you are getting your numbers. maybe it’s your selection bias, but facebook’s userbase keeps groing, and even if its getting less teenager engagement, those teenagers are flocking to Meta’s other platform Instagram.

pdfdrive Thanks for the suggestion, is it any better than z-library or do they host the same content ?

Contrary to many in here, I don’t think this will cause another exodus from reddit. those who might be concerned by this have already left or reduced their time on the platform

I always thought about why don’t FOSS projects that are at risk of getting sued by big corp like (NewPipe, Popcorn Time, streamio, tachiyomi …) embrace the dark web or git over torrent via VPN, so their projects don’t get threatened with take downs. z-library ended having to move to the dark web after all.

Now Nazi Germans are teaming up with Israel and other Germans against the Arabs and the Browns, As long long as they find an inferior race to hate, they are fine with whoever are their allies.

Oh the irony, if only innocent people weren’t at the end of this .

Every accusation by Israelis is a confession

Do I like Chaos if I wish for Trump to win in 2024 ? /s

Yeah, Maybe I Like Chaos, anyways Its fun to watch Chaos from afar

Hopefully, Matrix [Element & al ] and Revolt will catch up to discord

As long as they keep getting money out of it. and with record numbers year over year. they have no incentive to change course. Google has a monopoly over search engine that affords them the unique position of not giving a dime about user satisfaction. the users are trapped anyway!

Pakistan needs to get its home security in order. It has been the breeding ground for many armed militias. the 100 deaths in the Latest bombing in Iran seems to have been caused by a militia operating from Pakistan #

I don’t believe Apple made this product to sell. it might be just marketing ploy to keep people talking about Apple and how they are always ahead of the curve. they have a brand reputation to maintain.

Yeah, you haven’t seen their Chancellor joining the marches ?
