i’m convinced corporations want us all to soon be using shitty computers like Chromebooks running everything in the cloud.

short-form content isn’t superior to long-form content or lectures, of course. however, it can be useful for explaining some ideas simply. for example, a quick visual video demonstrating a maths proof or a brief “what if” scenario can be effective. 3blue1brown, minutephysics, etc. also create some great short videos. it’s not a replacement for a lecture, but rather a brief intro / overview.

tbh, the concept of tiktok-style videos is really good for science and small useful info bits. the problem is that creators have to make money -> they optimize for the algorithm -> make trash

in 10 years we will probably get an option to hide feed altogether and forward users to their subscriptions.

in estonia a sports stadium is named after a sports betting platform💀

i thought these mfs were promising to stop the war. they support the aggressor instead. wow

tbf, the fact that promoting this is legal in the first place angers me

hot dog

i want this, but also with a functionality to transform these resources into fuel

or just some google and apple lobby

They also benefit from it as it impacts OS providers like Apple and Google. These companies need to contend with privacy flaws and supporting them on their devices, spending resources on that, while Meta just uses the OS API to “verify” user age pretending they care about children. Profit.

this is insane, but i don’t quite understand how will it be pushed on independent linux distros.

even if it’ll be magically pushed into linux kernel, mfs will just create a fork without that shit… no?

glad that i read physical books and write to physical notebooks. moving to cave next week.

still 99% of ppl especially youngsters use this bullshit social media and will fall for this spy company

just ban bigtech from EU, why touching the kids💀
