No correct answer
This sounds like the average extrovert’s perspective on an introvert lifestyle tbh. “Oh you have minimal social life and focus on your passions there must be something wrong with you.”

[meme] Daily reminder that cars are heavy machinery
Last I checked cars exist with more regulations than most heavy machinery. I don’t disagree with your position but this is a poor argument.

ISO 8601 gang. You’d never want to describe dates that way but for file management the convenience is massive.

Aaron is no longer considered as cofounder by reddit. He fought for free speech.
This is true but also old news from what I remember they took him off that page a long time ago. Reddit has been heading toward it’s inevitable demise ever since Aaron passed. Glad I finally left for good.

An X is kind of a sans serif German swastika
Do people go around looking for Swastikas in stuff? Even if I was a conspiracy theorist, an X is still an X. Especially when it’s not even a symmetrical X, you’re really pulling at strings I think.

Typical average consumer does not care as long as they get to keep using the product. That's likely the majority of Apple users, it'll take a replacement (like this one) getting popular enough for them to notice and try it, otherwise on Reddit they'll stay till death.

Wi-Fi sniffers strapped to drones—Mike Lindell’s odd plan to stop election fraud
Oh wow a DJI with a packet sniffer attached to it, something I can literally put together myself with stuff at my desk in 15 minutes. Absolute baboons, these are the type of people to try and convince you 5G gives you Covid.

4 days before reddit's 3rd party app shutdown, Lemmy daily active users has skyrocketed 1400% this month
So active users doesn't include users who are only browsing/voting on posts? If so that's even more impressive.

Hackers manage to unlock Tesla software-locked features worth up to $15,000

Yeah anyone who’s familiar with the “software upgrade” know’s it’s just overpaying to be a beta tester for their self-driving. What’s more; people who don’t buy it still get auto-steer (lane maintain, car pacing & cruise control) which is what most would use self-driving for anyways. Aside from that, if it runs on code there will always be a way to beat it. People have been ripping .DLL files for enterprise software for decades that cost as much or more than this overpriced “feature.”

Almost broke 2.5 million daily total users on Lemmy in the last 24 hours.
Yeah I just found out about this project/the fediverse, been looking for several weeks for the best replacement to Reddit and this is by far the most promising. Also, as a self-hosting enthusiast, I'm liking this place more and more by the minute. With any luck increased visibility will continue to push activity & content. Power to the people.

The data of 760,000 Discord.io users was put up for sale on the darknet

They provide a functionary service for discord servers to have URL redirects pointed at themselves for invites. So less average users and more power users/ servers owners are taking the hit here.

lemmy now
Reply in thread
Nah Lemmy is definitely worse than the majority of social media platforms rn. There’s blatant posts of the exact same thing in the exact same communities by different users hours apart with hundreds of upvotes each so I literally can’t go 3 posts in the All feed without seeing his stupid face and it’s gotten to the point where I’m just downvoting people for low effort. I don’t fucking care about some guys mug shot to need to be informed a hundred times, if you’re gonna make jokes at least put effort into it

Just deleted my reddit account, along with all my posts and comments.
I felt the same after removing my account of 7 years, it’s a smaller community here but at least we’re starting fresh

USB-C hubs and my slow descent into madness - Dennis Schubert

Coming from the professional/enterprise side of things, docks have been a PITA for a few years. Especially thanks to Apple Silicon and their entirely different set of protocols and standards we now have a hard time finding any reliable docks on the market. For a period of time the only serious considerations required the use of DisplayLink software (including the dock I currently run from Startech) but they all have periodic and random issues. There are some decent options on the market now, mainly from Kingston, but they still don’t easily support 3+ displays and we aren’t comfortable enough to roll them out to the whole company until Kingston handles some current issues. Peripheral hubs are the bane of any laptop-only workforce.
