Coordinated campaigns to alter Wikipedia entries. One such case: https://www.adl.org/resources/... Manipulation of Wiki has been a common and mostly accepted issue of it for decades now. I'm really entertained by the leftists that feign shock when it is part and parcel to their overall playbook. Quit pretending you are above info manipulation to support your garbage world view.

Have a lot of balls..

I came here specifically to say this as well. Sadly it seems to reflect much of the 'open' community.

I did the same thing for my childhood regional ISP and some of the emails are *chef's kiss*

It seems to be the complete opposite in many respects. As with the 'contracture' that happened in 2016-18, Mastodon if it doesn't completely remove your instance, will suppress anything that doesn't fall into the neutered neoliberal worldview. Spend 10 minutes on any of the largely Federated instances and you will see some sort of partisan idiocy encouraging prejudice against others. It's not nearly as bad as BlueSky and their immense trouble with religious extremism and CSAM but is still pretty terrible in its own right.

After the 'CEO' of Mastodon took part in willful censorship disconnecting Mastodon instances from the broader Fediverse that he deemed to be objectionable (Only based on his limp wristed politics) I quit paying attention and throw the project into the same bin that I do Lemmy. Open Source but free as in beer and not as in speech.

I'll be fine

I'm so tired of hearing about Tesla and all the associated companies. Their only aim is to push the 'have nothing and like it philosophy' and at the end of the day they don't really do anything to put anything useful into the hands of the individual, quite the opposite in fact.

Then the employee wasn't really into their job anyways. Good riddance.

three payment tiers, regional network, national network, global network. Regional networking would be a godsend for an already overextended infosec industry.

To manufacture a crisis that cuts off the availability and drive up the cost of milk, eggs, cheese so they can spend a year pointing at it and mocking conservatives for not bringing the price of food down.

It's my own damn fault. Google, keep your creepy AI out of my conversations... Although I do kind of giggle to myself about calling a friend, talking and somewhere in the middle start talking about Amazon gift cards over and over until the call terminates lol.

Will a shiny exterior and plenty of virtue signals that guarantee your feed will be full of just the most insufferable inane garbage. X is no better but everyone is already there and if you have pretty tight communities, the volatile changes of the userbase really doesn't mean much.

Google hadn't have broken it. I wish I could have continued to use my HTC instead of the garbage that I have now.
