If I’m not mistaken the overwhelming majority of elons wealth is in company stock (including his other companies, not just Tesla)

It might need to fall pretty damn low for him to be able to afford all outstanding shares.

Yeah yeah

Fool me once

Good for pixelfed

I may be wrong, but I think a lot of birds do basically exactly that

Hexbear is counted twice, so you’re actually #4.

This image is a bit disheartening, ngl

Yeah, it’s an impressive tech showcase for such a small Dev team… But it’s pretty lackluster as a tiktok replacement.

That verify email will come, but don’t expect a mountain of quality content once it does

Stupid. There are already alternatives. Nobody wants them.

No matter how good you make it, now that tiktok was taken from people any app will just be the tiktok replacement being forced on us instead of a worthwhile social media unto itself.

It’s not like twitter which sold its own soul and was subsequently run into the ground. I think any attempt to replace tiktok will just piss people off, especially if they’re clearly American corporate enterprises.

I think he’s saying he deleted wokeness within himself

Fuckin stupid tho

A chain that has historically built its business in being a cool place to hang out, now quadrupling down on being the lamest, most obnoxious place on earth…

We’ll see how that goes

Because the people who are ‘correct’ for the job always end up being white guys who are direct relatives of someone in management

I mean, yeah. But so has every other defense secretary ever, so…

Could just be a codename, but a bg3/dos style game set in Arthurian legend would be sick

American tip culture is fucked, and it has been for a very long time. Once gas stations started begging for a tip on my soft drinks I figured it was about time to rip the band aid off.

Unfortunately tipping less means wait staff are gonna get fucked – no way to soften that. We need to get to a place where their livelihoods aren’t dependent on generosity.

Telebotomy perhaps

Maybe. But that means a lot more diy, and once your done with buying a pi, screen, battery, and all the 3d prints, you’re in about $160 anyway.

It’s much smaller, lighter, and cheaper than a steam deck. Seems good for emulating retro games. Definitely a niche product, but cool.

Not very. Worthless if cut into short lengths.

A thief who rips a bunch out of a construction site or similar won’t be able to sell it for anything, if that’s what you wanted to know.

The prestige behind the thinkpad brand specifically predates lenovo. They bought it from IBM in '05. AFAIK they’ve always been seen as reliable, well built laptops, albeit a bit pricier.

As far as spyware, with win11 being what it is your options are install Linux or live with it no matter which manufacturer you go with.

I really wish it was easier to open up a TV, rip out all the compute and replace it with a custom display driver. Someone could unironically make a decent amount of money selling diy TV stupidification kits

You just have to deal with all the smart garbage every time you turn it on
