"Welcome, I'm the CEO of email!"

Really, it should be kept more like an overplatform or protocol like what the email is. Luckily, Lemmy has the roles of developers and content admins so separated and decentralized that it shouldn't become a corpo-danger from now on

... and then you program games and you do the least performant bogosort you can ever think of

Well described, actually. And most of the tankies can be fought with actual knowledge of Marxism and socialism, since they try to pass themselves as all-so-knowledgeable of them and then spew the worst kind of misunderstandings of the socialist theories. Pseudo-intellectual edgy teenage-minded dumb-dumbs, in a nutshell

They were like this before also, but you're right: now they're much more overt and like they're pushed or hurried by something... And that something is the prospect of recession. They're not publicly announcing it, but their liquid assets are running low and they hit the ceiling for growth. YouTube is trying to maximize their exposure and revenue for ads by cracking down on adblockers; Twitter and Musk doing the dumbest decision just for money, the last one for the rate limitation being connected with not paying the bills to Google Cloud; Reddit introducing 3rd party API usage fees for, maybe, the same reason... They ran out of "smart" and covert solutions to milk their product, partners and clients of money and they would rather go down in greed. And they won't even be directly responsible due to those golden parachutes

Don't even get me started on the litigation terrorism against states that want to implement green laws

Wait: isn't this that manufactured process with the fake victims created by the creeps from ADF only to gain some more court discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community?

I also remember how we got to WW2 by appeasing the rising fascism instead of debating and disassembling it word for word. If we need to get to the physical violence and war to fight the evil, then we failed the early stages of disproving and debating why it's evil. And then, just like now, its mere idea will rear ist ugly head

So lucky that we have the European Union taking stand against corporations where the US failed miserably to keep them in check since Reagan.

Being a decentralized federated network and all, I guess that any solution involving anti-bots bots can be implemented only on particular servers on the fediverse. Which means that there can also be bot-infected (or even zombie, meaning full bot servers) that will or will try to be federated with the rest of the fediverse. Then it will be the duty of admins to identify the bots with the anti-bots bots and the infected servers to decide their defederation. I also don't know how efficient the captcha is against AI these days, so I won't comment on that

No Windows based Linux, I see

Unfortunately, nowadays, the schools fail at both

Meaning Trump and his shills getting a sentence and even quadrupled? Hell, I'm all for it

I can't stop laughing at the russian one.

First sentence you learn in Duo in russian: "Me in metro"

Isn't it already? Lemmygrad, exploding-heads and other extremist instances have already been defederated. But the main feature is the federation itself, which also creates powerful alliances between instances with common values. Platform-wise, it will be just a matter of difference of use and leaning, but federation alliances will work the same

Not capitalism, but hating on corporations and on unregulated capitalism. Imagine having one commercial entity more powerful than many of the states in the world, then having them abuse that kind of power given by money to supress the rights of people in the weaker states. The government should act as a staunch and uncorruptible protector of the people against these kind of big economic legal or illegal entities

Not surprising, given that if he doesn't take the corpos side by being scabby, his music wouldn't play in any mall in the world anymore. Not that it would be a bad thing, his songs are mind-numbing shit anyway

For their greedy brains, this is literally about control and surveillance. They can't make sure that you are working the full company time and even overtime while at home in your comfort and pyjamas.

It's because of big pay, highly mobile employees, hiding the real role of the HR and this false sense of security compared to the rest of the workplaces despite all these lay-offs from the big companies. Also, whenever a unionizing attempt happens, the companies go into crackdown mode and have their multitude of ways to either fire you with a bogus reason, remove your post citing "restructuring" or pulling you on a dead career track and demonize you in front of your colleagues with the usual "we care about our employees and everything can already be resolved through HR" speech. And moreover, many of these issues have a direct cause the Work Laws of the respective countries
