Well normies are still on it, and they keep sending me Twitter links, so need a way to view them

If you haven’t read the book “bullshit jobs” yet, I really recommend it. Encapsulates this mentality very well

Amazon clearly lying about "ownership" on Prime. (lemmy.world)

You all remember just a few weeks ago when Sony ripped away a bunch of movies and TV shows people “owned”? This ad is on Amazon. You can’t “own” it on Prime. You can just access it until they lose the license. How can they get away with lying like this?

They actually never mention the idea of you owning content in their tos www.primevideo.com/help?nodeId=202095490&view-typ…

It’s “purchased digital content”

Privacy Concerns on Lemmy: A Call for More User Control (github.com)

I’ve been grappling with a concern that I believe many of us share: the lack of privacy controls on Lemmy. As it stands, our profiles are public, and all our posts and comments are visible to anyone who cares to look. I don’t even care about privacy all that much, but this level of transparency feels to me akin to sharing my...

Well there’s still the legal threat. You have to trust someone, unless you’re creating your own hardware and never connecting to the internet

Point 1 & 3 basically. Every thread where there’s an obvious subtext it seems like the top 5 comments are telling you about it while patting themselves on the back for figuring out while seemingly not having read any of the other comments.

If you had respect for open source software, you’d be willing to pay for it

The joke is “look weird place”, but just saying that is boring, so we bring in kissing to enhance the joke, since kissing is like a big emotional activity that people often remember

Lemmy will replace lemmy. It’s federated and open source by design, so if any corpo manages to take over existing instances, people can just create and move to new ones. Lemmy is the endgame. Lemmy is the final software, the last forum.

/sok, maybe if a better software comes along it might replace it. But it’s still safe in theory from corporate takeovers

Oh trust me, as someone who’s been on many reddit alternatives, we did absolutely not get the bad side of reddit. Maybe the ugly side, at worst

It’s the lowest adjusted for inflation, not sure why they aren’t doing that that. They mention it in the article body.

Doesn’t really work, the first thing I notice is the text, which naturally tells me what to focus on.

Seems like you’re just not using them creatively enough

From a purely utilitarianism perspective, assuming all utility is linear and unscaled:

5/6 chance I’m on the side track * 1 person saved = 5/6

1/6 chance on the main track * 1/10 chance my switch is real * 10 people saved = 1/6

Seems pretty clear that you should not flip the switch. However, if I am on the main track, this thinking will lead to no-one flipping the switch and no lives saved whereas everyone thinking it will lead to a guaranteed save -> utility of 10/6.

If I can assume more than half the people can be rational and will think like me then I should flip the switch.

If I cannot, I should not flip the switch.

There’s like 50 of these. If one enshittifies, jump to another.

Though if I was in academia, I wouldn’t mind paying a couple bucks for a high quality one
