  • Tesla investors furious at stock’s plunge turn tables on CEO Elon Musk

    Jump

  • There is some kind of shady deal going on, I bet. 0 reason why Tesla is worth more than like the next 12 biggest auto makers combined. The argument previously is that they're a tech company with FSD, but that has become increasingly untrue as the years, missed targets, failed upgrades, and lack of implementation continue to pile up. Add-on Cyber Truck failures and Musk basically abandoning Tesla to play Govt Undertaker, and the company itself looks worse positioned than at any point in time.

  • Trump says he’s confident Putin will ‘keep his word’ if there’s a deal to end the war in Ukraine

  • I'm confident Anna Kendrick would love me if she just took the chance to get to know me...

  • Number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits rises to 242,000, highest level in 3 months

    Jump

  • 100%. They're going to cut govt spending, allowing private interests to step in at vastly increased prices. And it's going to be weird all these contacts and friends of politicians just happen to be positioned well to benefit off this.

  • John Oliver promoted alternatives to big tech in last night's episode, including Mastodon and Pixelfed

    Jump

  • Someone is wrong lol. NFL, for example, cannot do anything outside of Twitter at this time. They are apparently working on it, but it's gotta be implemented league-wide, so it's taking some time. Idk if they're even trying to get onto Mastodon, last I heard it was just Bluesky.

    This is a large org with hundreds of millions of fans, with no presence on Fediverse really. I'm sure there are mirror accounts, but none are official.

  • Nothing Phone (3a) is coming March 4 with 50MP 3x camera, bigger 50MP main

    Jump

  • I love my Nothing 2. I was a 1+ fan boy until the 8 Pro and the switch to Color OS, and I can't say enough good stuff about it. It runs well, it's pretty light Android skin. I don't use the glyphs, but it's just a really solid phone. Battery on it is great, I don't do much with pictures. I will definitely be sticking with this brand moving forward if trajectory remains similar.

  • Give me Nancy Pelosi and a long evening and I'll show you a portfolio you'd be proud to bring home to your mother.

  • But the Democrats are harvesting Adenochrome from children

  • Trump to pause enforcement of law banning bribery of foreign officials

    Jump

  • Nah, that was more just where my internal commentary went!

  • Trump to pause enforcement of law banning bribery of foreign officials

    Jump

  • Citizens United was a test run that Democrats let run rampant because they, too, benefited from the system. And here we are.

    I hate the "both sides" arguments, but in this specific situation...

  • Trump says Palestinians will have no right of return to Gaza under his plan

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's those thoughts and prayers people keep sending in light of disaster. It's great, you get to claim the moral high ground while burying your head in the sand about the realities of the situation.

  • I'm trying to figure out how this saves him or his children in the future. Mind immediately goes to the condo sale to UAE or whoever, but it could be any number of situations with this stupid fuck.

  • Vance tells Musk that DOGE staffer who resigned after posting racist tweets should be rehired

    Jump

  • In the same breath, they refer to him as a kid making a mistake, to appeal to us. We've all been in somewhat similar situations, making mistakes as kids. And then seconds later, he's a highly trained professional who is well-equipped to manage poring through Treasury docs and deciding where funding is sent or ceased.

    What is he? Is he a kid or is he an adult? Be consistent. Fuck everything about this.

  • Muslim Groups Who Pushed Against Kamala Harris Respond to Trump's Gaza Plan - Newsweek

    Jump

  • Not to mention, Trump is a peacetime president. He's ending the Ukraine War and the Israel Palestine War day 1 week 1 whenever convenient committing US troops to Gaza to commandeer the land and redevlop it as a US territory, while also threatening to take over the Panama Canal, Greenland, and to annex Canada, and requesting Zelensky allow Putin to ravage Ukrainian land and likely install puppet govt while prosecuting any Ukrainian loyalists as the Russians see fit.

    You know. Peaceful things.

  • Twitterrific team launches new ‘Tapestry’ iPhone app for Bluesky, Mastodon, RSS, more

    Jump

  • In my experience, the "lifetime" fees are tied to the Apple ID, so it should move devices with you, so long as you have access to that Apple account. And if not, that's at least how it works on Android.

    Not to say the price is fair at $80...I think before the Reddit 3rd party stuff, I'd paid for a fair few Reddit apps for no ads, but it was to support a product I liked, and it was maybe $6 at most for it per app. I probably wouldn't go above $15, and it would have to be a really good app...

  • Democratic senator says he will block Trump nominees until USAID is back

  • It's my little therapeutic pillow to yell into as well. Lol

  • Loops became Open Source!

    Jump

  • I'm not a big Fediverse proponent, like...the concept is good, if not still a little young (activity pub isn't ironed out across mediums and is still a bit jank in my opinion) but it seems a bit like a cash grab to be the savior dev making all the X-equivalent of Fediverse, and just hopefully something sticks. With PixelFed blowing up, feel like Loops is gonna take a back seat for quite a while.

  • Loops became Open Source!

    Jump

  • The Loops app certainly feels like it. Not to diminish a solo dev doing something on his own, but it just seems like a standard video player with like, comment, follow. Search feature is only by user; when you type a comment, it doesn't wrap the text, it just moves horizontally until you post it. I think the feed is literally just a chronological list of every video posted, and for some reason, most of the videos I see on it are just like...atmospheric videos. Still camera, nature background, rain in someone's backyard. People love the concept, but I don't see how it's anywhere near ready to compete for users like other options are right now.

    Does the Fediverse give you hope?

  • Idk. Dictating what I can or can't say based on your personal beliefs seems an awful lot like an attempt to censor me. I can only speak if I'm willing to argue every single thing? Don't tread on me, bro.
