  • He really went off the deep end when Grimes dumped him. I'm not saying he didn't have issues before, but his compete public persona changed when their relationship ended. When his relationship with Amber Herd ended her did an interview with Rolling Stone where he was crying and talking about how life just isn't worth doing anything of you aren't in love. I think he really thought that with Grimes he found his true soulmate. My guess is that once she became a mother she realized that he isn't someone she wants raising her children and she broke his heart and he's gone full incel now.

    One day she will be free of him and she's going to tell her story. I can't wait to hear it.

  • Yeah, I hate Discord too but that has been the best place I've found the best information, but even then it doesn't really feel like a community.

    I'm running on an Apple M1 at the moment, likely to upgrade to an M4 when it is released.

  • Soul crushing.

    Worked at a place for 16 years, made many close friends there, helped the company grow from a $2M company into a $2B company. Then one day they decided that it looked like they might not be add profitable in the coming quarter so they needed to cut 20% of the company. I was my family's sole provider and now wasn't sure how we were going to survive. I did get a nice severance of 6 months pay, but only 3 months of COBRA coverage. I was very fortunate to find a better paying job a little over 3 months later. Financially it was a good thing for us, but mentally I'm pretty fucked up now. I've never had anxiety issues but now I'm on 2 different medications for it. I'm depressed. I hate my new job and coworkers. I have no joy in work. I know if I get laid off again that I won't get nearly as good of a severance package. I realize that my lifestyle only exists as long as my employer chooses to keep me employed. I feel like I not only have no safety net, but if I fall I take my family with me. It sucks.

  • Which is exactly where it should be... having regional phone companies sucked. Having 1 phone company sucked. Having 3-4 is the least sucky, but we have real competition.

    Before tearing apart Google and Amazon, I'df much prefer we have 3-4 choices for internet providers (unless we can turn them into utilities, then we should do that).

  • Hi, I also know my industry, with over a quarter century of experience in Fortune 500 companies. The old motto of IT used to be 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' and then salespeople found out that fear is a great sales tool.

    When proper precautions are taken and a risk analysis is performed there is no reason that old operating systems and software can't continue to be used in production environments. I've seen many more systems taken down from updates gone wrong than from running 'unsupported' software. Just because a system is old, doesn't mean it is vulnerable, often the opposite is true.

  • So, because you don't like bots, they shouldn't be made available to others who appreciate them? Fuck that.

    The beauty of Lemmy is that you are in control of what you see, but that makes that you have to control it. Stop trying to dictate that I can't have bots from instances that allow them.

  • The letter said that after one Microsoft outreach on July 22, a "Delta employee replied, saying 'all good. Cool will let you know and thank you.' Despite this assessment that things were 'all good,' public reports indicate that Delta canceled more than 1,100 flights on July 22 and more than 500 flights on July 23."

  • In order to do that the US government would need to heavily subsidize EVs the way the Chinese government does.

    I support this... in my view the Chinese government is putting its money out there in order to get more people into an EV. The US should match their efforts.

  • Will this mean that no one will be able to pay to be the default search, or just that Google will no longer be allowed?

    Honestly, Google is still the best free search even though it isn't as good as it used to be... and if this ruling means that no one can pay to be the default then Google will still win based on name recognition and performance. Plus they will save money by not needing to give it to Apple.

    The real loser here is Apple who is going to lose a fairly large revenue stream.
