Now I am in the 1% ?

Elon, zuck go to courts. Lawyers make lot of money.

So who we cheer for musk, zuck or the lawyers ?

What a timeline.

They never had contact ? Like when ? People travelling most of the globe way before British figured out basic stuff.

Ancient sumeria, Egypt, Assyrians and Indians had concepts like crowns. Also if a civilization did something cool, others usually copied it under 200 years.

Not a historian, so grain of salt.

Yes, it will and zuck will feel fulfilled and stop thinking about more money.

May be not.

Humanity risks losing its identity in pursuit of profits.

Thanks @[email protected] . Will this be normal cadence ? You are doing what you can because of major bug fixes but should the largest lemmy instance be the latest version ?

Just create advertising community and let all advertise on that community alone ? Thats a good idea, kind of like 'deals' but you pay to post there.

I did good, me thinks.

Lemmy.store to support lemmy.world, the community can design and sell custom community themed merch.

I hate ads like the rest of us but can community donations sustain the instance ? If they do why dont we have that model yet ? Why we still keeping using YouTube and Gmail etc ? What percentage of community would donate ? Will be donating to the community or the server instance ? Will there be push back from users of small communities who are paying if the money goes purely into the maintenance of large communities ?

I kind of hate that the greatest minds on earth are working on creating products on monetizing around the current advertising model.(Ex: Google/Facebook/Amazon etc).

If the advertising model useless or less useful why do we keep doing it ? I think we hate it and that's why we are on Lemmy but most people suck up to ads do buy useless shit. Check out the rise of Temu and Shein.

The 100$ was an example but I get your point. It feels like every option leads more or less to some billion dollar company becoming richer.

Would people pay ? Wiki barely gets by, we have so many models that are ad based but very few subscription based(am I wrong ?)

I am rising from the ashes like a phoenix.

I don't understand the plot, can you please explain?

The goober. The countries want it to control them. Ethan wants it so we can destroy the entity. Why does Gabriel(the entity) want it ?

Why can't the entity nuke Rome when two parts of the key are on Rome(or Venice) and be done with it.

Ona side note,am all knowing entity can't get to its own source code or recreate it ? I have a feeling that the entity wants Ethan to get the key for some unknown reason.

Funny exterior with a soft core.Fun theatre watch.
