Fair enough. It’s still more news than the endless reporting major news websites do (I’m looking at you bbc) about his fucking tweets.
But I can see your point that it’s not very newsworthy on Lemmy (nor is this new btw, he has done similar shit before)
Just an idea, but maybe nothing actually happened? So nobody is sharing their videos, or they’re just not going viral because there is nothing to see… The truth is always more mundane than you want it to be…
What’s more likely? A shadow government wiping thousands of videos without thousands of people being up in arms about it. If Gmail goes down for 15m, the whole world goes crazy. We’re taking about the phones of an entire district being instantly cleaned, livestreams shut down, cloud backups (including people backing up to homeservers) being wiped and all. Maybe even dumb cameras and instax pictures being destroyed.
Or nothing but a random hoax of someone having fun?
If you still find the shadow government more likely, there is no discussion to be had tbh…
The government is so powerful that they’ve even managed to downvote your comment exposing their evil ways! Incredible.
At the same time, they’re too incompetent to keep sensitive war information out of the press, feed or teach their children and poor or even just agree on what to call a fucking bay. But scrubbing thousands of phones instantly, in these live streaming days, no biggie.
“Twitter should be the global town square”
“free speech absolutist”
“make humor great again”
“leftists are snowflakes”
Sure, he doesn’t force anyone to use Twitter. It’s still unfortunately the de facto communication platform for a lot of government agencies. It’s still an important tool for the world. Let’s hope some large governments (EU? Please?) grow balls and leave Twitter alltogether…
This is absolutely newsworthy and worth being upset about.
To be honest, books are the only form of media I don’t pirate. They deserve my money. Sucks that I have to use big shops to get them digital, but it’s so easy…
After some more thinking, I guess the original piracy has to come from somewhere :)
Genuine question : why not just download a pirated version of the book then? Seems like a huge hassle for the same end result
The irony of this movie poster mockup being AI generated cracks me up.
Being overly Paranoia? Can’t think of another valid reason.
I also prefer electric cars, but goddamn if I haven’t gotten a heart attack multiple times from a sneaky silent ev fly past me minding my own business walking on the road. (not every road has sidewalks in the non-US city where I live)
Don’t want to get into a whole argument, But ltt suggested to stop throwing dirt. GN turned around and just continued slinging dirt. Just feels weird to me.
A whole lot of shit slinging at LTT for no real reason. At when LTT rebuked the claims and suggested to stop doing so and work together in the future, GN just decided to double down and continue.
A bunch of childish stupid drama tbh, but very one-sided.
To be honest, GN is not worth your viewing time anymore. He’s just trying to stir drama on tech YouTube for the sake of starting drama…
He got multiple olive branches offered to stop the drama and he just threw them on top of the fire. He’s being a manchild for no reason.
Or even better, donate to wikipedia. I know I just did.
I use a seedbox abroad and secure ssh to transfer stuff to my own server. Don’t see what additional security a vpn would give me.
Or native gestures in Firefox. Either would be perfect.
Is there a single good article on Forbes? It’s always fucking clickbait without actual content.
Yeah, as long as Firefox (or a fork) doesn’t have native gestures, I can’t fulltime swap to it. Gestures addons are not the same. Anyone that used vivaldi (or opera) for any serious length of time knows what I mean.
I work for a large eu government agency. Why the hell they still insist that we promote our workings on Twitter completely eludes me. It does not make any sense whatsoever. They should get off and stop promoting that cesspool. Go to any of the myriad of competitors or just go back to Facebook and Instagram…
Lol, didn’t realize it was AI. Thought it was some weird Canadian or creole French.
