Pentagon blasted for failing five audits and missing 61% of assets: 'All gone to Zelensky!'
That’s a loaded headline. It makes it sound like all of the missing funds went to Zelensky but that’s just a guys opinion.

Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome
Does this only affect Chrome or all Chromium based browsers? Are Brave and Edge going to be implementing this too?

They wanted to stay in Afghanistan even after 20 years but 2 years of Ukraine is too much.

It’s equal parts creepy and pathetic she’s partying with teenagers.

Meta will kill small instances! Please read.
What a huge piece of FUD this is. Threads is already way larger then the Fediverse is. They don't need to come here and try and take users. You are afraid that Meta will hoard the content and users from the Fediverse but they are already doing that. Threads doesn't connect now so it's all there's. Why would they connect to just disconnect later? Why is the answer to being afraid of getting disconnected in the future to never connect? This makes no sense. It's complete fear mongering.

Just because they haven’t launched in the EU yet doesn’t mean they won’t. They were clearly rushing to get this out the door. I’d be absolutely shocked if they don’t go to the EU since Facebook and Instagram are there already.

Sadly the charging infrastructure isn’t there yet. There’s only a handful of level 2 chargers near me so I’m it’s not practical at all unless I want to go through the hassle of getting charger installed at my house.

It's sadly not any worse than Instagram already is.

I feel like this isn’t talked about enough. Charging at home doesn’t work for a lot of people. Give me a fast charger at the grocery store so I can charge while I shop and I’m in!

Hot Take: Twisted Metal III
When I was young I had the original and 3 and much preferred 3. I did eventually play 2 and it was good but I personally don’t get all of the hate for 3.

What should we do about Threads?
Reply in thread
Yeah but that's all public information that I'm choosing to put out there. Meta doesn't need to do a complete integration and share posts back to the fedeverse just to grab public information. They can just scrape the sites the way they are now for most of it.

Most of the 100 million people who signed up for Threads stopped using it

It was super easy to sign up but ultimately it’s missing a lot of features and is why people didn’t stick around. There’s still no search or hashtags so finding content that interests you is basically luck with the algorithm.

Why Defederating from Facebook/Meta is So Important
"People joining the Fediverse are those looking for freedom. If people are not ready or are not looking for freedom, that’s fine. They have the right to stay on proprietary platforms. We should not force them into the Fediverse. We should not try to include as many people as we can at all cost. We should be honest and ensure people join the Fediverse because they share some of the values behind it."
Who gets to appoint the gatekeepers?

I’ve held my nose and have an Autograph/Active Cash set up. They’ve been fine to deal with. I know Fidelity has a 2% cash back Visa but I don’t personally have any experience with it.
