I was surprised to see that their negotiations broke down because of price/cost as opposed to technology (unproven node and to my knowledge intel doesn’t really have any experience with semi-custom x86 business).

one of the top education videos on the front page is by an occultist about how the wrong witchcraft caused 9/11, another is how the vaccines are going to start killing babies, etc.

This is actually pretty funny. I am glad I am staying away from Odysee.

In general, I am rather skeptical of “free speech absolutism” and what have you, comes off a little parochial to me.

No, TSMC is not supposed to be a permanent solution. Just Arrow Lake.

This would be an excellent law/regulation that makes complete sense.

The major companies can most definitely manage this (although they will cry crocodile tears).

That’s definitely true.

The rested on their lawrels when they were the only game in town from the late 2000s to ~2018.

That would not be a good thing. The CPU/GPU design and semiconductor fab industries are already massively concentrated.

You don’t understand the terms “censorship” or “free speech”. It’s a mere internet polemic for you, something to act out about .

You have no clue what you are talking about.

I think you need to cancel your citizenship (and your family members’ citizenships) and move to russia or PRC.

And the vast majority of russians couldn’t care less.

Not all surprising, he’s been pushing the russian narrative for a while now.

There are pros/cons to anonymous payments. It’s a bit sophomoric to claim privacy is impossible without anonymous payments.

There are most definitely many use cases for .onion sites without any sort of payments (“anonymous” or otherwise).

Monero support is a massive red flag for criminal activity, even by the very low standards of crypto.

I didn’t really get this either.

I did think the final paragraph was notable, a “zeitgeist of our times” if you will:

The absurdity of the situation prompted tech author and journalist James Vincent to write on X, “current tech trends are resistant to satire precisely because they satirize themselves. a car park of empty cars, honking at one another, nudging back and forth to drop off nobody, is a perfect image of tech serving its own prerogatives rather than humanity’s.”

Cheers!

I’ve moved over two Lemmy two months (I got the feeling that I needed a Reddit alternative).

I still visit Reddit for more niche content, but for many things Lemmy works fine.

That being said, Lemmy is a lot smaller than Reddit. I believe Lemmy (all instances) only have 50K DAUs, while Reddit has 73 million DAUs, so a lot of things will be missing.

Could please share the article from the screenshot? The one where he says he wants to paywall r/asshole design?

So basically anything goes in terms of content…

EDIT: The reference to assholedesign is a joke, the first part is legite (that they are generally considering paywalled subs).

Other than OF-style content, what exactly are they planning to paywall?

So did Harris’ campaign open a mastadon account (this shouldn’t be all that difficult or costly) following this initiative?

I am not the from the US, just curious. More official government accounts on Mastadon is good thing.

I did recently notice that I could follow some people on Threads on one of my Mastadon account, that’s a good thing too.

So you’re saying russians genuinely believe that since 2014 they’ve been “fighting Nazism in Ukraine” and this is not a genocidal imperialist war?

As I mentioned in my OP, you do know that every russian had uncensored youtube within a single click on their smartphone until the last month or so? Btw, the YT app is available in russian and there is a lot of russian language content.

This makes no sense!

Nothing to do with “winning” and I never framed it as such. For me “winning” is kicking the Russians out of my country, not some internet discussion (like for you).

Keep on white washing russian crimes and enabling the degeneracy of a strong majority of russian society.

Just watch that it doesn’t bite you and your family in the ass one day! Your delusion will not be of much use then!
