US is full of companies that publicly claim to manipulate reddit threads as PR protection. They all do it exactly like you’d expect - people with dozens of phones going through threads writing shit. Even if users are banned and their phone fingerprinted they just dump the phones for new ones.

Reddit knows could actually sue them and very likely to win but that would be a lot of attention at them.

The best part of this is - if commercial PR companies can afford to run this then what China, Russia and such are doing must have absolutely bonkers. There’s very little internet actually left organic.

Auto upload to cloud that someone bas access to. Even Google photos with shared partners will automatically download your partners auto uploaded videos and photos. This should be more than enough until nazis take full control.

Thailand is incredibly welcoming and my favorite place on earth. You’ll have no issues with your transition here though you need to make real money abroad or have good set of skills (like certified teaching) to get local employment.

Thailand visa is very easy. You can get elite visa which is like 12k usd for 5 years.

I’m confused - this seems like idiomatic way to add new features in activity pub? What’s actually missing here?

Turn them into a little server that you can host self hostable services on

So they ruin their own product for what? For traffic to their billionaire buddy?

Highly doubt that

but IMDB is owned by direct Microsoft competitor - Amazon.

but in this example clearly Wikipedia and probably IMDB are not paying them right? Or is it their attempt to disguise selling out by always preferring the buyable option even when it’s at 0$?

As a software dev I wonder how does this even happen?

• The movie snippet somehow has bigger weight for ordering - why would that ever be preferred?
• The ordering is random?
• The movie snippet is faster than App and Folder snippets?

It’s incredible how incompetent Microsoft is.

quotes a concept about property from 1850s

Lmao sorry for not being able to take this seriously

Is it? This dichotomy seems incredibly artificial and unsustainable.

Yet none of that can be interpreted as “all property is theft” unless you redefine what “property” itself means which is a terrible strategy for advertising Anarchy.

Anarchists believe that “all property is theft”? Lol

All private property is theft? Lmao go back to your cave tankie

Ive been a pirate since the late 90s and it’s a service problem for the most part. So saying a song name on Spotify and getting what you want 99.9% of the time is an unbeatable experience. Not to mention curated and generate playlists. No piracy setup matches this that I’ve seen.

And where do I get the music? Every time I want to listen to something I’m spending 20 minutes searching for it on some forsaken pirate websites? I’m way too old and not poor enough for this.

I’ve tried to get away from Spotify for years and the reality is the competition still sucks. I still have Tidal and YT music subscriptions but 90% of my music is on Spotify. I don’t know why is it so hard to match this.

Self hosting music is absolutely not worth it though it seems like that’s the only way to match Spotify quality of the experience.

Bazzite community really deserves tbe credit. Lots of work and great vibes all around!
