Not only is the owner pretty right wing, he spend a fair amount of money helping get California’s Prop 8 passed, which made same sex marriage illegal until it was nationally legalized… There’s no guarantee of this but I suspect it would have failed without his involvement helping it along, so yeah, I’ll never touch one of his products if I can avoid it
I haven’t in many years but I might start back up now that I’ve finally switched my PC
Yep. Linux is as easy or often easier to install than Windows. The main difference is people rarely install Windows, it’s just there, by default.
The Big issue, I think, is the tyranny of the default.
The rest of the usability issues will get fixed with greater adoption rates if they come.
But yeah, once you get over the hurdle of going against the default, the deluge of choice is overwhelming, much like why Mastodon and Lemmy didn’t see huge usage spikes when Twitter and Reddit went to shit, but Bluesky did.
Was going to say this exactly
Mid second quarter even
The fact that it’s in retaliation for her speaking out about human rights violations, when they have a clear policy against retaliating against employees who speak out about human rights violations
What are you talking about? Law absolutely can specify that something is allowed.
Not just any AI, really shitty and obvious AI
You really think employers are dumb enough to ask questions that could lead to discrimination lawsuits?!
Yes.
Okay, turned it off. If a site needs my location it can ask me and I can politely tell it to fuck off unless it has a warrant.
Only thing I knew about him before all of this was him trying to get rid of all bike lanes in Quebec (probably a bit of an exaggeration, but he’s actively trying to make it harder to use transportation that’s not a car with reasons that boil down to feelings, so, not a lot of respect for him outside how he’s handling the tariff threats)
Sounds like some really shit quality K
… I’ll see myself out
And he actually likes Tesla
And he wonders why NASA turned him down for bringing those astronauts back…
I’m sure he already calls his lawyers every day at 3 AM while half blitzed on K to pitch exactly that
*Blu cheese has entered the chat*
Let’s not keep making the mistake of assuming the rule of law matters at this point. If he does something and nobody stops it, its legality or lack there of is moot. If he says to do something and people do it and nobody stops him (or judge’s rulings about it are ignored), then it doesn’t matter that it was illegal.
I know you’re just trying to get people to calm down, but at this point, people are right to be scared and right to think these things could actually come to pass considering it has happened before. Maybe it won’t get that far… But plenty has already happened that should never have happened, and the US currently has a president who is illegally, specifically unconstitutionally, holding office and was allowed to be sworn in anyway, so it’s probably not a good idea to assume this won’t happen just because it’s also unconstitutional.
They can bleep it…
I think your sarcasm detector needs tuning, it was pretty thick especially considering all of those have been around with those names much longer than that
Also, don’t ever trust companies to do anything they promised with the clear intent to garner good will, especially if the promise is years away
