I have been in IT for 30 years. This has been a recurring theme for at least 20 of those years. It has gone by different names but the idea hasn’t changed. Web technology has come a long way but there are too many developers still writing traditional apps to kill the OS completely. While new greenfield apps may be web first, most of the corporate world is running on legacy apps that are tied to the OS.
The article points out that the strength of the Fediverse is also it’s downside. Federated moderation makes it challenging to consistently moderate CSAM.
We have seen it even here with the challenges of Lemmynsfw. In fact they have taken a stance that CSAM like images with of age models made to look underage is fine as long as there is some dodgy ‘age verification’
The idea is that abusive instances would get defederated, but I think we are going to find that inadequate to keep up without some sort of centralized reporting escalation and ai auto screening.
Kodak did this a few years but the big printer companies slashed prices in the printers to next to nothing. Kodaks $200 printer with cheap ink, huge cartridges, and no chips didn’t sell well when Canon would have a similar printer (scan, print, etc) for $49 next to it. Consumers are dumb.
Brother’s eco tank is close… but if they are killing that off in the name of ink selling greed as this meme suggests…
I ran into it somewhere and thought it was !dadjoke material based on the pun, no political opinions intended. I grew up on a cattle farm so I know where the cows come from.
Just because I have an affinity for White New-Balance Classics doesn't make me a Boomer, OK?
Besides, they go with my outfit no matter what color my cargo shorts or polo is... which happens to be the official uniform of !dadjokes; and that is where you happen to be. This is an amazing punnerific Dad Joke. I know because I tried it on my son and got an audible groan of approval. So, scamper on back to yiffit.net or wherever you came from if that is all you have.
Though if you have a !dadjokes worthy flame, bring it on, I love a good Internet trolling.
I feel like we see an article like this every year. A 1-2% gain isn’t what I consider “much” better. It is an incremental change in a positive direction it isn’t going to revolutionize the industry.
I was coming here to say this. They have sold 1.8 million copies in a week. 64k active players right now.
Developed by 3 guys. The graphics are intentionally low poly but the shooter is deep with well modeled weapons, drivable/flyable vehicles, well designed maps, and a nearly full destructible world.
I haven’t been able to find a good free dump site that is current. I have used exam topics (paid) in the past for Azure exams and they have been pretty good.
It was fun, wasn’t it.
I have been using Memmy (IOS) and it’s so much better than the Reddit app.
I live in the Cape Fear area of North Carolina and we are dealing with this. Chemors, the maker of Teflon, has been dumping PFAS in our water.
My town recently built a reverse osmosis water treatment plant. It is the only way to get it out of the water. Traditional water filters don’t work.
Memmy is Apollo like but only available for IOS for now.

Guess they shouldn't have trained it on Common Core... /s
I will see myself out.
Reports coming in now that at least one span has collapsed, and that another is damaged.
I also have a friend who is wondering how much a Reddit account sells for…
A few have tried…

I assume it comes from newly federated people browsing All and not realizing this is !dadjokes. Or maybe just people who hate a good pun joke.
Its ok because the shit gets washed off of the hide before it gets turned into the leather for the seats in my new car.
This is !dadjokes, this is a pun joke, no political message about the food you decide to eat or not yet intended.

FYI Memmy up/down vote is done by swiping right on a post. It uses similar haptics to the old Reddit Apollo app.
You ad an individual no. You as a collective yes. What is good for the collective (society) may be individually good for you.
This is very satisfying to read as someone with ADHD.

I just finished up a few rounds. This game is fantastic. They have captured that old school Battlefield 1942 feel (but of course in modern times).
