Specifically the “open” web. They recently said the web was thriving from their point of view. Since they’re a major part of what is “closing” the web.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Denmark zoo asks public to donate unwanted small pets or horses to feed captive predatorsEnglish
207·5 months agoOkay then, I guess if your kid has a terminal cancer we can also feed him to the tiger? After all in the end it’s just a bunch of meat.
That’s a weird comparison, and it’s honestly a sign that you are struggling with separating the two on an emotional level. Which is ironic based on your opening sentence.

World News@lemmy.ml•‘Strange Order’: Evidence grows that Israel let Oct 7 happen to justify Gaza invasionEnglish
23·5 months agoUS intelligence confirmed within a week that Egypt had warned them repeatedly, and again a few days before the attack. So even if they missed it themselves(which is highly unlikely), they at a very minimum ignored the warnings.
And when the PM quickly called that “fake news”, it should have been a pretty strong indication for most people.

111·5 months agoThere are about twenty different people that are speculated to be inspirations.
erewhon (californian upscale grocery chain)
In this case “upscale” means “ripoff”, it’s $15 for orange juice, or a plain bagel.

Technology@lemmy.world•Mastercard and Visa face backlash after hundreds of adult games removed from online stores Steam and Itch.ioEnglish
9·5 months agoThat’s their goal for sure, what I mean is how are they pretending to justify it?
The same way they always do: “WONT SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?!?!?!1111”

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•New York City has sent over 6000 cyclists to criminal court. Some say they are being treated unfairly.English
71·5 months agoThat’s such a weirdly written article.
They bring up how summons increased tenfold from the first to the second quarter as if it’s supposed to be some big shock. It went from winter to summer in NYC… People generally don’t like biking when it’s below freezing outside.
It’s also mostly about delivery bikers. And some of them are famous for endangering themselves and others all the time, across several major US cities. That’s been a thing for many years.

Linux@programming.dev•Linux's Modern NTFS Driver Will Now Correctly Handle Symlinks Created On WindowsEnglish
10·5 months agoThis is like seeing those php jokes in programming humor communities. Because they’re clearly made by someone who is well over a decade out of date with their information.
For reference symbolic links were properly introduced in Vista(2006), but junction points were available before that.
Simply put: It’s a fetish.
It’s pretty common to not understand why some people like the things they do in fetishes. Most people don’t find feet attractive, but some people become just as aroused seeing feet as others do seeing breasts.
(Some furries will insist up and down that it’s not a fetish, and those people are lying. They’ll claim it’s about a ton of different things, but it’s pretty easy to tell. Because the ones who deny it are the ones who like to push their fetish onto others.)

Technology@lemmy.world•Itch.io deindexes NSFW games after becoming the latest target of skittish credit card companies and anti-porn group Collective Shout, catching an award-winning indie and more in the crossfireEnglish
2·5 months agoExactly. They “crawl” category/tag lists, etc. and follow links. And if there are no links to those pages, they wont be indexed.
(Depending on some settings. For all I know they’ve set up “hidden redirects” for popular crawlers to pages that show them)

Technology@lemmy.world•Itch.io deindexes NSFW games after becoming the latest target of skittish credit card companies and anti-porn group Collective Shout, catching an award-winning indie and more in the crossfireEnglish
2·5 months agoedit: right, respective tags list no porn games anymore.
Which could cause them to no longer be indexed by search engines depending on other settings. So you’d need to find direct links from other websites.
And I’m pretty sure gen x is actually the where the switch occurs. With the older ones being surprised, and the younger ones using subtitles more.
For example, the guy shocked in the post is more towards the older gen x.

Technology@piefed.social•FDA’s New Drug Approval AI Is Generating Fake Studies: ReportEnglish
6·5 months agoPossible? I thought it was common knowledge that a surprising amount of people think things like ChatGPT are full blown sapient and sentient AIs like in sci-fi.
And it’s highly likely RFK Jr. is in that group. Him and his followers most likely think the generated fake studies are accurate and that scientists “just don’t understand”(like with all their conspiracies).
A lot of people are going to die over this. And that asshat will be in the ground before any consequences roll around.
People flip images to avoid repost detection on some social media sites. Then someone else reposts that on a different platform.


Doesn’t defend!? They’re straight up just posting the stream keys…
