Basically, “you can do whatever you want as long as it benefits us.” I hate for-profit social networks.
Arf! I’m Tony Bark. Artist and writer by day. Programmer by night. Gamer all the way.

The notion that every person has to somehow protect their works for all of their life and beyond the grave is obviously dumb and purely favors corporations at the cost of pitting artists against themselves and fans.
This thin obsession really needs to stop.
While they aren’t perfect, it’s certainly better than waiting on the distro or dealing with potential package conflicts that PPAs also had a habit of causing.
At least they’re not killing the protocol.
They were a bandaid solution to a problem that Flatpaks and Snap fixed.
The problem with all these chat AIs is that they’re just a gloried autocorrect. It never knew what it was saying from the beginning. That’s why it “hallucinates”.
Still calling it Twitter.
I’m just waiting for everything they haven’t killed to merge onto YouTube, at this point. Because that seems to be the direction things are headed.
WTF did I just read? XD
While I appreciate Elon’s efforts, he’s still a hypocrite.
While I totally agree, the average Joe is just going to gravitate to whomever controls the ecosystem. Kinda hard to trust a higher authority when they can’t even get their in-house shit together.
Google’s marketing department defies logic every day.
Just why does anyone actually like that company?
I mean, if Google weren’t shit, I’m sure Android would be more viable. They’ve can’t even keep a consistent brand! They’ve gone from Google Play this and that, to migrating everything - including podcasts - to YouTube.
You must be a blast at parties.
Yes. I know. That’s I’ve been saying this whole time.
I wasn’t talking about Copyright Office. I was talking about the courts.
The real winners are the chipmakers.
The problem with copyright is that everything is automatically copyrighted. The copyright logo is purely symbolic, at this point. Both sides are technically right, even though the courts have ruled that anything an AI outputs is actually in the public domain.
Meta is a little hard because they acquired a lot of existing social networks in their prime and have kept things subtle. Think about how long it took EA to finally strip Maxis of everything but The Sims. The only way you would know something is owned by Meta is from the splash screen.
