“Chinese crap” is what allows America to build F-35 fighter jets, the same crap that also commands 45 to 50 percent of total shipbuilding globally.
Taiwanese =/= Chinese ;)

Wait did sh.itjust.works do anything? I thought the story was that beehaw.org cut them and lemmy.world off, but only for people browsing on beehaw.
Make an account in another instance, there are lots of them.
I think they were using the open sign ups to join and then harass people, a lot of which were in other instances, in particular beehaw.org. Now beehaw has defederated from sh.itjust.works and lemmy.world.
After paedophile Steve Huffman has been caught lying so many times, why should anyone believe a word he says?
I like to give it slightly wrong answers first, then right answers on the second attempt. Because they’re blatantly using it to train AI (for free, without paying users for their work), I want to poison the data. The first one tells it that it’s guess is wrong, the second one proves I know what I’m talking about - if you do everything wrong it will just discard your training data.
I went to a gas station that had facial recognition cameras. They cited theft, but also their “legitimate interest”, using website cookie language - only there was no easily apparent way to object to their legitimate interest.
What we really need is legislation. The law needs to recognise that businesses cannot just steal data from people for free for their own profits - not to mention exploiting that data against the data subject.
If you build and sell a car, you have to pay for the nuts and bolts. You can’t just take them and say “well, you wouldn’t know how to build a car, and they only cost a tiny, tiny amount, so we don’t need to pay you.”
Personal data has value. So much value, the businesses that focus on collecting it are some of the wealthiest in the world. We are all being robbed.
In an internal memo sent Monday afternoon to Reddit staff, former r/jailbait moderator and paedophile Steve Huffman addressed the recent blowback
FTFY
Right on queue.
What happens to your account on a federated server if that one fails though?
Relay was my go to app also, something about the flow of the app UI always appealed to me more than any other apps. So much so, I continued using it even after I found the paid app included trackers (these can be blocked with Warden, a rare app scanner you can find on github).
However even if I wanted to stay on reddit I don’t think I’d pay a monthly subscription.
Reddit really should be paying users, not the other way around. They steal our data for free and seek to profit from it.
The CEO is an absolute bastard. He’s twisted the words of his “friend” Aaron Swartz, the real founder of the site, and bastardised his creation while trashing his legacy.
The blackout isn’t pointless, it’s just not yet enough. Reddit needs to die, and the blackout is a step towards that. It started as a way to try and get admin to change, and in that respect it has and will fail, but it is the first step to reddit going the way of digg.
We could use alternatives, but Lemmy is the best!
