I’ll take my slightly good news where I can get it. I’m begging for scraps over here!
I mean yeah. Once other “financial assets” become more attractive (bonds at 5.5%?) maybe less parasitical activity will happen in the housing market. The whole thing started going off the rails when rates dropped to essentially nothing.
If you think current home owners have it bad, imagine anyone trying to get in the market now. Not only are mortgages 3X the price, but the houses are 2X the price they were before. The entire thing is completely unsustainable, and yet the Feds have done fuck all. Well no, actually they have made it worse every single step of the way (see the first time home buyers savings account for the latest idiotic idea).
Spare some knowledge stranger? That’s a dark path I don’t wish to travel.
Honestly surprised there isn’t more. There’s a lot of money that would be lost if the fediverse became more mainstream.
I see no way they aren’t a competitor. Meta is a company. Companies exists to make money. Meta makes money by driving engagement and then monitizing via ads or user data sale for others to target ads.
Like are we all supposed to pretend a company, Meta of all companies, is an altruistic entity? Because that’s not how it works… At all.
Remove corporations from social networks.
The sooner we realize corporate control of social media was a massive mistake, the better the world will be. Imagine if corporate social media algos that drive engagement through ragebaiting hadn’t existed for the last 10 years…
I would argue we also don’t want to be in a place where we rely on any one individual. Thankfully @ernest seems to understand that as well.
We must go lower!
This would honestly improve the quality of life for so many people.
I know some people take issue with the whole “what there’s a NEW version already?!”. But I’m with you - it’s great to see.
Given the progress in just the last year… that’s terrifying.
I hate everything about this. I came here to escape the Corporations damnit!
I don’t even care what the vote was for. But the fact that over 94% of people agreed on anything is crazy to me.
Is it really a big problem right now?
Like we have Bluetooth for medium range, wifi for long range, and NFC for short range.
I would argue it’s a feature.
I barely know what this guy is up to these days. It’s such a departure from the last guy. I love it.
And equal parts terrifying.
Also you can alter the vision input by moving your head, blocking the sun with your hand etc.
This seems like a classic case of ego from Musk.
It’s crazy (sad) how much we are all starting to have to rely on the EU to save us from the BS.
