@CowboyWho @catsalad Cats use ed, the standard editor.

@kimlockhartga @zool @afewbugs Absolutely! And isn’t that the whole goal of advertising?

@neutronstar @evacide there are no stupid answers, only dumb questions and this is one of them

@SteveBellovin they were making America great for the first time

@JustinDerrick @WeirdWriter I've said it before and I'll say it again - I don't give a damn if people use UBI to sit and stare at the TV. They aren't starving, and they aren't getting in the way of anything else. Let em sit, it's fine.

@TuutW @openrightsgroup I play games with my son and enjoy it as an activity. I don’t think we should be overpathologizing everyday life by calling all sorts of behaviors ‘addictions’. I don’t support prohibition as a means to change platforms either. I support user tools, empowerment and education.

@aral "Oh, look, yet another closed platform I don't want to be on" Why would anyone sign up for W when there's Mastodon, Pixelfed, GoToSocial, Matrix/Synapse, and even bsky ... Thank you, but ... I'd rather swallow rusty nails.Ursula needs to get a grip. If anyone knows here, I'll be happy to have a sit-down with her and explain how this sh*t really works.@_elena

@dillyd Puns and portmanteaus are the stuff of life.

@catsalad Is there some cat box shrinkflation going on in some parts of the world ?

@BogWitch @asbjornn Det er nok bare sådan det er

@xgranade there is very little nuance about LLMs other than the nuances of how bad they are

My next book is *The Reverse Centaur's Guide to Life After AI*, out next month. Pre-order it now, including as a DRM-free audiobook or ebook, at my Kickstarter, and help me continue to prove that DRM-free isn't just the *right* way to reach an audience, it's also the *best* way to reach them:https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/doctorow/the-reverse-centaurs-guide-to-life-after-ai eof/

@sus clam up.

@glennf @siracusa What I don' t like in all of this, is that we also don' t question which cars make sense to be build.There are still a lot SUVs out there.They have no teal use, are heavy (need more energy), need a lot of parking space and are highly dangerous for pedestrians, esspecially children.Form follows function.No need for driving bread boxes.Even as EV.

@YongSun @mutter01 @ondekvinde @lottelythje @folfdk @kennyvxo Pokkers også. Med mindre andre har issues, holder vi os så til 14. juli, og sørger for at sende en masse festlige snapshots på dagen cc Yong Sun

@ilumium Having said that, I really think it's important that companies are transparent about where the data is stored. Jurisdictionally, not street-level addresses, of course. I just don't think a big company like Google could do that because the answer is probably a dozen different countries.

@lionelbouton Respectfully, if you don’t know me, then why are you speaking to me. This is where the problem lies. Again. Go speak to your white counterparts. Not me.

@monkeyninja We have a socalled smart tv, never gave it internet service, we watch through a roku connected via hdmi. End of problem.

@ondekvinde @infonauten @hunspirillen Ja, verden er lille og stor på samme tid

@pluralistic Google unfortunately has the resources to do more than one of these at a time—they're also part of the attribution cartel, a project with Meta and Apple to drive ad revenue to lower-cost misinfo and slop that they, not independent publishers, can controlWhen "old Google" applied commodification to replace Digital and Sun servers with cheap generic PCs, it was a good approach. But applying it to news and creative works on the web is a big risk https://blog.zgp.org/facebook-slop-the-future-of-ad-supported-media/
