My concern is less Suckerburg as much as Meta's corporate history. My expectation is that they'll try to use this to conquer and destroy Lemmy.

I love my doggo. She is adorable and loving.
Wife had two cats. Combining the animal families is... still a work in progress. Kitties are growing to like me more though, one actively seeks me for cuddles now!
Or take personal control. I have smart home stuff but I run Home Assistant and use ZWave devices, so it's 100% local.
Those were very important 4MB RAM sticks, you needed at least 4MB and recommended 8MB of RAM to play the just released Doom!
So when a charge is made against a credit card, you have the option to do a "chargeback" - this is meant to be used for fraud. In this case, the argument is that Reddit fraudulently changed the terms of the program after people had already paid - being in "material breach" means they made a binding promise to provide a thing and they failed to do so. Chargebacks are really, really bad for a vendor. They lose the money, and they get a penalty fee, AND if it keeps happening the credit card processor can crank up their overall fees or even drop them as a bad customer.
I switched from LastPass to Bitwarden. I think they're great, being able to use a strong bespoke password for every service along with one nuclear missile arming grade password plus 2FA for the manager itself.
I use it almost exclusively - I've bookmarked Subscriptions instead of any other page. But it does feel like I'm unusual in this sometimes.
My wife got quite offended when I implied that we should consider the spiders pets. Before living in the same place, I would just leave the spiders be as long as they didn't bother me. That is no longer an option, although I do escort them safely outdoors rather than squishing them as is requested.
Asks chat bot to solve a problem
Chat Bot after being around the internet for a few days: "Good news, I now have The Final Solution to the real problem of our times!"
Of course there's people, the ID-10-T module needs to be installed somewhere!
As a side benefit, I also have all the money and free time to spend with furry children instead!
I wonder if he was rattling a saber at McCarthy, and McCarthy let him know he had a saber to rattle right back.
Thermal management is a huge issue for spacecraft. In atmosphere, the bulk of cooling for things like electronics would be convective, from transferring the heat into a fluid (air/water/etc) which then moves away with the heat. In space, you don't have a fluid for convective cooling, so your cooling is all radiative - essentially just emitting infrared energy. This is far, far less efficient - you need much more material and surface area to get the same cooling.
Dark objects are better at radiative cooling... unfortunately, they're also far better at absorbing radiative energy. Like the oodles of it coming out of the sun. That's why dark objects are dark - they're absorbing the energy. However, it also means that your thermal management is far more difficult because you're absorbing a lot more heat. It can be worked around, but it makes the spacecraft larger and heavier, which is the antithesis of space work. So spacecraft have traditionally tried to reject as much absorbed energy as possible, which by definition makes them reflective.
So technically, the Pigeon Bomb means wetware predates both software and firmware.
If it is fuzzy, I will pet it.
If it is not fuzzy, I will still probably try to pet it.
Nope, had to look it up (I think I'm a bit older than Destiny's original target audience), but just from a summary written about his political discussions I could see his brand of a pragmatic take on traditional liberalism being a good fit and am now curious to watch a couple of his videos.
Unfortunately when I searched the meme in question the options that popped up were Twitter or Reddit, and I decided to go for the lesser evil.
Given the amount of time I spent over on r/neoliberal, it could fit, although I do tend to fall a bit on the libertarian side of it.
So I would consider myself at least reasonably inclined to thinking and somewhat conservative. Note, however, that does NOT mean Republican. When I use conservative, it's in a different context than the modern "conservative movement". The modern movement seems to be more regressive than conservative. Conservative in my way of thinking is about calm, measured progress. Don't upend everything in massive sweeping changes... but don't reject change either, change is necessary and inevitable. The more moderate Biden-y neoliberal wing of the Democrats is probably the closest to that these days - the more progressive Democrats with wanting massive social upheaval type changes and the Republicans favoring the repeal-and-replace burn it down and maybe fix the ashes approach to undoing those changes, neither of which appeals to me.
I just dumped all my old coins onto comments encouraging people to do chargebacks for any year-long Premium subscriptions since they're in material breach.
