Yeah, there’s no evidence that this is because of tariffs. Companies don’t make big moves like this after only a week of changes.

I’m not one to body-shame but the audacity of that fat fuck to say this is beyond the pale.

First things first, it’s a moderated mailing list with some ads

This is what neighborhoods in my area do but without the ads. Around here there are distinct neighborhoods that have their own names but no official designation. People have, since before social media, set up mailing lists for each neighborhood moderated by one of the residents.

There’s occasional drama but mostly it’s people asking for tradespeople recommendations, curb alerts for furniture or photos of loose pets.

NextDoor-type services have tried to establish a presence but have mostly been ignored.

Maybe it’s the geography or the early adoption of e-mail lists but mailing lists work great around here.

They built one in Honduras called Prospera. It’s going about as well for the locals as you’d expect.

And they’ll do so under the pretense of “will nobody think of the children” while prominent Brits have gotten away with raping kids practically in the open. They didn’t even need encryption, they had people willingly turning a blind eye.

Can’t move fast and break things with things that aren’t broken.

Access can do (some) SQL! 😱

I’ve worked for US federal government, access to Access* was the only way I could do some things that wasn’t torture… severe torture.

*keep in mind that SQL is a query language. It can be implemented in different ways and not necessarily within an RDMS.

It would be one of the areas that would save the government a bunch of money. But, Ellison is in the Trump camp so it’s not going to happen.

When Elon was in his early teens, that word was a common pejorative.

If you look at Elon and interpret his behavior as if he was 13, it all makes a lot more sense.

Elon and DOGE should really look into all of those Oracle contracts the Fed pays for. Must be all inefficiency and fraud.

To nitpick, Census data is heavily queried. They use Oracle now, I believe.

Sure but they’re not going to fire all of them. They’re going to fire 90% then make 10% put out the fires and patch the leaks while working twice as many hours for less pay.

The company will gradually get worse and worse until bankrupt or sold and the c-suite bails with their golden parachutes.

Netanyahu knows this and knows that Trump eats this kind of tacky cruel shit up.

With that hair he could pass for a hobbit.

Dildo Baggins, CEO of Meta

Funny enough, it’s all content moderators and fact checkers.

His key to winning this time relied heavily on people who don’t pay attention and who don’t usually vote.

See, you just need to wear glasses that project something to foil the facial recognition. Of course, they’ll come up with something to jam your obfuscator but you can upgrade to full body EM cloaking. Of course, they’ll implement…

It’s just going to be a constant escalation until rich people don’t go out in public anymore and poor people get regular back room body modifications.

Settle down, Disneyphiles.

They did it for the controversy to get attention.

I stream from Jellyfin to an Apple TV without your issues. It might be a network or configuration problem.

Have you tried Infuse, SenPlayer or other clients?
