IDK... "average payouts of $460,000-$477,000 per worker this year" no way that the average worker will get half a million dollar a year. So I don't really understand what this strikes are aiming for.

To use this side you have at least be as pale as #FFDAB9... But nobody is enforcing it.

So I just tested it in my system (with Blender 5.1.1) and I can See and open symlinks with the Blender file open Dialog.

I would still assume it's a problem of how you setup your symlink or a permission issue and not a problem of blender.

No my initial point is, that if you are boarding with how to setup a VPN you are probably not the main user that TikTok is generating money from.

Plus companies will probably not use a platform that is banned in a country to target people in that country.

And plus if you are willing to just Google or look up a single video tutorial about what a VPN is or how to set it up you are probably above of the average Internet user today.

No and that's why signal can decide on their own if they want to enable chat with other messager or not. Meta has no choice anymore.

Matrix shows me that you can have both secure and decentralized communication.

This is one of those photos that might not look so dangerous but now that I think about it you must have been outside on a moving train to take this picture...

Yes I read it and I simply do not agree with most of what is said there. XMPP is not dead and saying google killed it on purpose is to much of a simplification.

Worst thing that could happen if we federat with meta and decide on some point that this is a bad instance and block it, is that we go back to where we are now.

But since some governments and news companies already started to run their own mastodon instances it would be easiest for them to just keep up their own instance and federate with threads instead of creating another account on threads.

This plus all de Content created by people from the "free fedivers" would meta bring into a situation where they would want to be federated and therefore would (to an extent) do stuff to satisfy other instances. Our position against meta would be much stronger than how it is now.

So definitely not growing at all cost but excluding all form of commercial use of the fedivers by default would lead to fedivers remaining just a footnote in society without changing anything.

So I want not only meta but all of the big player to use ActivityPup and fighting for our (the users) favor without all their lockin tricks.

I just want to make this clear I'm also anti-meta and that's why I want them to feel a need to open up for users to make it easier to switch platforms.

I would trust them as much as any other new instance of any other platform that joins the Fendiverse. That's my point.

Yes by making it like a one-click Join from their other very popular platform "Instagram" and advertising it there.

That's (most probably) why threads is currently not available in the EU. Gatekeeper practices like this would be illegal with the Digital Markets Act. But honestly it would be very easy to get around this. Just make it possible to join without an Instagram account. So I guess there are more concerns from Meta to not fullfil EU Standards than just this.

Sooo I guess EU finally did a good job here.

Big Part of my daily business is explaining people what they should code... People aren't reliable as well.

I voted this up just for all the toxic irony in it. Really missed this since I'm no longer on reddit 😄
