Replace? No. Be a valiable second option? Sure. Like in the early 2000 when you had dozens of major forums for certain topics. Something Awful, GameFAQs, Digg, Slashdot, 4chan, NeoGAF… It‘s not a natural law that there has to be one service having 95 % of the discussion market locked up.

Standards can be updated. Like the EU standard was from Micro-USB to USB-C. It happens all the time in all fields of technology.

So? Reddit has about 10 sizeable Subs that are just a variation of "Ask Any and All Questions". That's not even counting speciality subs like "MedicalQuestions" or "ITQuestions" or "DermatologyQuestions" or "AskTrangender". Or the different language ones like "FragReddit" (German). In the end 1-3 will become the major ones, all will be a bit different and everyone will find the ones they like most.

Yeah, considering it's such a major update none of them will work this seems a very prudent thing to do.

Until the first few break down and you need to buy new ones, just to realize they are different from the ones you have by now (or discontinued outright).

What should happen? That's all public information, they can (and probably do) scrape this already. As does all and any AI project and company.

It doesn't check the stuff it generates other than on grammatical and orthographical errors. It's not intelligent or has knowledge outside of how to create text. The text looks useful, but it doesn't know what it contains in a way something intelligent would.

Money is tighter since the inflation affects VC and stupid money flowing in. Stock prices are not going up, people have no money to play with (see the death of NFTs at the same time, the definition of a stupid investment).

But why go to Stormfront Lite, if you have Stromfront Extra Deluxe* in form of Twitter already.

The moment this shit appears on mine I‘m buying an Apple TV.

X? The kiddie porn platform?

Lemmy, KBin and Mastodon fullfil all the needs for online news outside of dedicated news sites for me by now, Twitter is something I haven't used directly for months now.

Spez loves Musk after all, can't take his head out of his ass.

Total Commander. Has been for two decades on PC and near one on Android. Not beautiful, but so useful.

It has been around for 10 years and 4 phones by now, and only gaining in popularity and market share. No reason to predict an early demise yet. The Fairphone 1 controversially only received 3 years of updates, but since then it's 5 years.

Which means it does need outside help (even passive help).

Zucc is a greedy asshole, but I think he knows when to sit back, and let the smarter people make decisions.

Eh, the whole Metaverse fiasco. But he's at least not an outspoken Fascist, which makes him somewhat good in today's dystopian world.

Lots of drugs started out as medicine. And heroin is a great medicine, still used in this sense today.

I still have some I bought 15 years ago at Ikea, still working. Most I exchanged because of the rapid technical development in the one and a half decade not because they stopped working.

Sans the tomatoes (from the Americas after all) Pizza has been around at least 2000 years ago: https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/pizza-painting-found-ancient-roman-ruins-pompeii-2023-06-27/

We also have a written account of Persian soldiers using their shields to bake a flatbread with cheese and dates on top from the 6th century BC, which one could count as Pizza.

I have apparently 200 I never knew about.

You can follow Lemmy posts/communities from Mastodon, but not the other way round as of now.

Maybe learn the basics of the Fediverse before demanding to undo something that doesn't even exist yet.

This has nothing to do with EV, it has to do with extremely overcharing customers. A BMW fender could run you 5000 just for the part. My fiancee worked in the automotive sector so she has the gross prices: under 100 Euros.

But you need to host the videos on your instance and foot the bandwith bill, which will prevent it from taking off like Youtube. Too expensive for anyone outside of gigantic monopolistic companies.

It relies on peer-to-peer, not hosting.

BTW: there is also a Facebook equivalent (Friendica, GNU Social, Dispora and Hubzilla), a Instagram equivalent (Pixelfed) and a Instant Messenger (Matrix)

What is the evidence that these are bots?

Both Samsung and Google give you 5 years of updates (at least 3 major Android releases + 2 years of Security updates) for a few years now.

Vox Media was the owner since the beginning. The founders of The Verge went to the owner of SB Nations after leaving Engadget. It is part of Vox Media since the beginning.

Biggest German server and good community.

It's an ongoing debate, but it true Communist/Socialist style there is nobody out there that fullfils the criteria to stand as equal. Maybe at times the Mansheviks at Lemmygrad might be seen as nearly as good as the Bolsheviks of Hexbear. /s

I'm totally a bot

Cargo shorts are back in style since last year by the way. Part of the general Nineties revival.
