I like how you can insult people by calling them a shill because they support youtube premium, but if I insult you, mods delete me comment. Nice double standards. You are a child who thinks they are entitled.

Did no one RTFA? The lawsuits have cost them 4.5 billion dollars. Hence the bankruptcy. I would consider that “an impact on their bottom line”. Isn’t this what we want? For them to be punished so much they go out of businesses?

The tryhards are the toxic players. You seem confused.

Can you please post examples of Matt Healy’s racism and sexism? I am aware he has performed a “nazi salute” as part of the song “Love it if we made it” which is a criticism of fascism. I was not aware he made other transgressions. Please provide specific examples.

Those words were not inherently bad. “Retard” is a medical term, just like “obese”. Surprise! You will be shamed for calling someone obese now, despite it’s medical accuracy. We have to change language so we don’t shatter fragile egos.

Exposing the crimes of the NSA is one reason.

That will surely put a dent in facebook’s 3 billion monthly users.

I have a $1200 Pixel phone. I don’t think I’m getting anything at a discount. I’m just not delude into thinking apple respects privacy.

Apple blocked everyone from app tracking, except themselves. They spun this as a win for consumers and every idiot believes them. Now apple has exclusive rights to your usage data and sells it to advertisers. They cut out the competition. They did not protect your privacy.

When you realize Apple’s privacy is a facade, what value are you gaining? Not much. Google’s software is vastly superior. Google maps vs Apple maps, Assistant vs Siri, Gmail, Photos, call screening, etc, etc.

There it is: rules for the but not for meeeee!

Mods can decide to be a dick, but we all should be civil all the time.

Yea all the 50 year old bankers who drop $100k on an electric benz will surely start rooting their cars tomorrow.

The venn diagram of “people who will root a car” and “people who own a $150,000 benz” is 2 circles on opposite sides of the solar system.

And a lot of PC gamers have Stockholm Syndrome when it comes to Steam.

Glacially slow and pathetic customer service. They have an F rating by the Better Business Bureau. Offline mode sucks. And Valve bullies developers into agreeing to exploitative pricing terms:

You know what would fix this? Competition. But when Epic created a game store and implemented the same tactics that Valve is using - Steam fanboys cried.

People don’t really care about these issues - they want their “team” to win.

Petulant moderators fucked with communities more than spez ever did. Spez gets all the attention because he is the CEO, but mods do the majority of the damage.

So lemmy.world should not host content that is specific to the USA?

Does “world” refer to the literal world or the world of lemmy?

Source please.

There is none. There isn’t a single piece of research that has found ortho to be superior in any way. It’s not faster, it’s not more accurate, it’s not more ergonomic. It is for hipsters that want to be different. You’re certainly entitled to like ortho keyboards. But you should not lie about benefits.

I do block DNS outbound to force using my own DNS.

This doesn’t make sense. Blocking outbound DNS is effectively blocking everything, as you can see if your screenshot. Launchdarkly and NTP are both “closed”. Did you look at your own screenshot?

Do you know how DNS works?
