I'm so fucking tired of this acceptance people have where they treat Meta and Facebook as separate entities. Where, at one point, it was just one entity called Facebook. Facebook doesn't have a parent company, because it's just Facebook. Meta only came into existence because Mark was forced his hand in some monopoly issue or something.

And big surprise, Facebook dictating who can and can't be on it's platform.

With Lemmy - I can block whomever is bothering me and I will not see their posts ever again. I can see their notifications and they somehow can keep responding to me (which ought to be worked on). But erasing their existence on my end should be a thing when you don't want to deal with them.

Lemmy and other federated spots, allow me to make posts that I would otherwise get faulted for if I tried them on Reddit. Like on AskReddit, they don't like it when you ask a question and try to put something in the message body for clarification or it gets removed.

So you have to spend time making another comment to clarify with the possibility of it not being understood anyways because hey, hindsight users.

The karma system on the fediverse does not necessarily impact how much you can post and where you can post. Probably one of the big differences between Lemmy and Reddit for example. If you had negative karma on Reddit, good luck trying to post anywhere because you'll get nagged with Captcha systems.

And good luck posting anywhere you'd like on different subreddits because they'll just outright remove your posts automatically because an arbitrary karma count wasn't met and no subreddit is transparent about it.

I for example, expect him to no longer require nutrition labels to be on packaged and canned foods. We're all just going to have to eat what we can and play it by portion sizes.

I also expect him to roll back and undo safety regulations within the food industry.

I'm pretty sure he's going to roll back just about everything Biden has done.

He'll make sure the filibuster is gone so that everything he wants to do will just be on the express lane.

When we sleep, we are technically half-dead. So, wouldn't it be safe to say that everyone currently living has died many times?

And all of the Reddit moderators looked in awe and decided to behave just like him.

Only problem is that they aren't getting the kind of money he does for it.

The point where we learned how useless the judiciary is, is when they couldn't even pin down Zuckerberg. The media made it all sound like "Ohhhh, Mark is getting grilled now! he's going to face time and penalties!"

And...nothing came of it. Because the judiciary is too dumb to even understand Facebook.

Should've done what Snowden did. If you know what you're going to do, will lead to these consequences? Get the hell out of the country.

Because this is EXACTLY the kind of thing the American Government would've done to Snowden if he stayed. Snowden was right that he knew they wouldn't give him a fair trial.

Eggs are again steadily rising in price. Wal-Mart "great value" prices isn't all that 'great' to begin with, with most of it's products.

But can we stop calling things inflation? Call it for what it really has been - G-R-E-E-D

Of course it would. This is simply just retaliation from the GOP because their glorious former "leader" was impeached like, twice.

"He came up with a simple solution: getting the lane lines repainted on that pesky curve — which of course, didn't actually address the underlying problem."

This is why Musk is not a technological genius or a technological thinker of any degree. If he was, he would've had a spark of a thought in that shallow brain of his, that says there could've been a more broader approach to tackle things like unpainted curves. Like thinking how the software could identify what's a curve and what isn't.

No, his solution is to just go around and repaint every curve possible.
