That’s because he really does believe it. If you listen to him say he heard it on TV it is the most genuine statement he has ever made. It’s like a child telling you exactly what they saw on TV.
If you’re looking for someone to sue it would have to be the “sources” Trump heard the information from. Unfortunately I’m confident those people understand the ruse. They know to say allegedly. They know how to utilize weasel words.
Yes but PROVE IT. Define what wrong they did. That’s my point.
Take a look at the recent monopoly trial, https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/05/technology/google-antitrust-ruling.html
They claim that spending $18 billion per year to be the default search engine makes them monopolistic. That’s it? That’s all they got?
So the result will be Google stops paying $18 billion and device/browser manufacturers have to put up a Browser Choice dot EU type option.
Go back 10 years and put that law in place. AFAIK Apple has always defaulted to Google. Samsung probably would have sold out to Bing to be the default (although in this case Bing wouldn’t reach a monopoly, so I guess that’s ok for some reason).
I’m not saying paying to be the default didn’t help, but is that the reason they have 90% of the searches? No.
Did they do some else? Maybe. Someone should prove it and we can have an actual change.
Being a monopoly and engaging in negative monopolistic behaviors are also different things.
For example if the only two burger joints in the world were McDonalds and Burger King, and Burger King decided to replace their burgers with literal shit, actual human and animal feces, would McDonalds be a (I hope and assume) monopoly? Probably. Are they engaging in negative monopolistic behavior? Not necessarily.
Obviously, as a quick aside, fuck Google for their shitty software decisions, their cancelling of great products and their enshittification of a majority of their applications.
However simply having 90% of the market does not technically mean they have done anything wrong. You can’t say they have 90% of the market therefore they have done something illegal or have abused being a monopoly.
You have to be specific. You have to call out payment to companies to be the default. But even that isn’t quite enough because companies sold access. Can a company be at fault for buying access as the default? It was for sale. It’s a weak argument, or at least an incomplete one. You need to prove they abused their position. Or you need to make a case that the industry they are in requires additional regulation as a whole.
I say this because although it sounds like I’m defending Google I’m not. There is a difference between something feeling illegal and something being illegal. Technically, although a recent judgement would disagree with me, they haven’t done anything wrong. It feels like they have. I agree it feels like they have. But they haven’t (or there are further pending results which will prove otherwise).
I use flat case most of the time, but I also try to stick to single word files so there is no case to get in the way.
I think for documents I might share like a PDF I’d use Pascal case.
In a classroom or teaching setting I will sometimes use Kebab case as I find it is the least confusing and makes it extra clear where the word division is. Similarly I avoid Dot notation since it’s confusing for folks coming from a Windows world.
And I would avoid Screaming because that’s just too loud anywhere.

Sure Reddit and Lemmy are different technical stacks, but neither is doing anything particularly unique or complicated.
If Reddit wanted to federate it could. It would take some work but it would be an achievable task in a reasonable amount of time.
Perhaps scaling or stability issues. I’m not sure the Fediverse is ready to handle the number of actions a site like Reddit handles. Then again I’m not super well versed on that part of the Lemmy software, so maybe it would be fine.
Save your game, then you can reload to before you died.
Ban it and all bots honestly. I hate seeing a comment on a thread just to find out it’s a bot. If not use like this continues we might see a fresh post with 6 new comments, all of them bots that don’t add to the discussion.
Sure that reveals your distro, but also consider what is in the logs you’re sharing. If you’re asking for help you probably also already said that you’re running Debian. Or the logs are full of apt logs already, querying a well known Debian mirror.
You’re right that PC is a fine default, but think about the whole picture as well.
Sure but if someone paid you $12m a year to throw a ball around, would you take it?
If another team offered you $13m would you change teams?
If everyone else is getting paid $12m, can I just pay you $50k?
Also if the entire NBA colluded to reduce everyones pay by $1m per year, every year, would that be fair and reasonable?
A feel a little bad for the Logitech CEO here. It was basically a softball question, do you ever think you’ll have software subscriptions, which is a common thing, and he answered “Yeah, that’s possible.”
Obviously for a mouse it doesn’t really make sense, but paid software updates are common in the industry so who knows.
Obviously it’s stupid, but it’s funny to see it play out.
The linked article.
So wait they implement autoplay, autoplay then ruins recommendations, and the fix is a sleep timer?
I’ve never needed this feature, but surely the sleep timer should be an OS feature? I assume Android and iOS have apps for this.
But also it it screws with recommendations, maybe improve that UI first?
This feels like a “faster horses” situation where they have no idea what to do next.

The email and address don’t have to be anything particularly accurate/real.
Some players in the ecosystem have not been transparent with their use of Reddit’s content, and in those instances, we block access to protect Reddit content and user privacy.
Aka “Fuck you, pay me”, at least Reddit is transparent that data is for sale and they think they own it.
They killed support for the first gen Chromecast and the YouTube “app” has been broken for 3+ years. They’ll just stop supporting it one day and you’ll have to buy a new one.
Oh you’re right. I saw the 9/11 and missed the year, 2022.
