Good afternoon, Frosty.

It’s like resuscitating a dying animal, just so you could kill it yourself.

Read beyond the headline. This is about Pixel MDM including more data, not about RCS actually having any significant update.

This isn’t really even about RCS, but okay.

Your activity is actually harming the fediverse by forcing us to come up with innovative ways to throttle new users.

Why do you need to throttle users who are posting relevant content?

“Ad blockers prevented your review submission.”

No, you prevented the review submission, by taking the time out of your day to write a dialogue box that prevents submissions.

This makes me doubt the author of the article’s credibility. What exactly is the “perfect resolution” of a hand painted piece of art?

High-enough that you can’t distinguish individual pixels with your eye. At least, that’s how Apple defines their retina displays; not sure if these guys are following the same standard for that terminology or not.

If they promoted it on another FOSS platform, nobody would see it.

So… it’s a custom wrapper for Bluesky?

What exactly is wrong with them, in your opinion? A game I play uses a Discord forum channel for their bug reports, and it seems to support all the features I’d need out of a forum: sorting options (date posted vs most recent/“bumped” threads), search, chronological comments, tags, media support…

The only real issue I see with Discord forums is that they’re not public, so you can’t view them without having a Discord account and joining the server. But as far as functioning as a traditional web forum, they seem to check all the boxes.

Discord literally has forums. Most official game servers that I’ve seen tend to make use of them.

This sort of shit ought to be banned.

The children’s images were used by Meta after their parents had posted them on Instagram to mark their return to school.

STOP POSTING PICTURES OF YOUR CHILDREN ON THE INTERNET. Even IF Meta weren’t going to use the photos for advertising purposes, that shit is still public. Even if you set it to “friends only”, you don’t know everybody on your friend list as well as you’d like to think.

The use of “real jobs” already tells me that you don’t respect artists, which is likely the real reason why you don’t want to pay them.

Because, you’d find this hard to believe, that there are people who want to enjoy a hobby without feeling like selling out.

Hobbyists have bills to pay, too.

That’s an awfully defeatist way of looking at it, IMO.

I feel like “not paying artists” makes as much for a better world as “not tipping waitstaff”.

For what it’s worth, ChatGPT has gotten better at citing its sources, so it’s easier to fact-check it.

Shut the fuck up, Elon. We’ll be celebrating your death, as well.
