  • Wouldn't that mean Lemmy is fucked if it allows US users? No way instances can afford that kind of moderation.

  • FOIA was awful already. Your lucky if there is a real FOIA coordinator and in a lot of places it just takes the time away from someone's (potentially important) essential function.

  • But they are not. They are cancelling contracts where they have to pay damages, laying off people who probably were retiring anyway for a half year and paying them. None of that saves money

  • It wouldn't even matter if it was spoken of. 60 Minutes could do a ground breaking show based off the entire thing, that goes viral. But at best viewership might drop for a month or so before everyone forgets about it or dismisses it entirely.

    You cannot allow blatant propoganda like Fox. Maybe not ban them, but make laws to hold all media to a much higher standard and then sue the shit out of them when they lie. If they lie, they have to lead with a segment that retracts the lie, apologizes and then tells the truth for a couple days.

    You could use the fines to fund independent media that has no or less bias.

  • I think this is it, Musk is playing a different game than most of the others.

    He knows that there are very few dollars left to squeeze out of the free market... So he is getting in on the ground floor of a new type of oligarch fascism he likes. Now he can not only control his competition, but the very basis of USD value itself... If you the think his stock market and crypto scams were bad, you haven't seen nothing yet.

  • A lot of them are on Bluesky by now, and the rest? Fuck em

  • Unfortunately my toddler doesn't have the same reading interests as I... I also don't know if I could handle listening to my own voice.

  • I am now like double sure they have some sort of stake in overbloated AI centric US companies haha.

  • Why not too old? I bought 4 gen 4 & 5 kindles off ebay for like $20 on purpose. I hate backlights and they still work great.

  • Idk, if you dig a little deeper you will also read that the evidence of them being hunted on purpose isn't conclusive. Also the tiger ends up losing often.

  • I would be fascinated to review this research od yours... lol

  • I feel like it's a more middle class/poor US thing. They often also keep their toilet cleaning brush out in the open, displayed in a fancy caddy.

    Might just be lack of closet space? Perhaps the plumbing is so shoddy it makes sense to keep it out for easy access.
