I don’t think that is as much an issue as all of the potential issues that would be dragged up by discussing any of the questionable or explicitly illegal content hosted on Reddit. The first time anyone ever saw a Reddit mod was seeing an adult man argue it was ok for him to moderate a subreddit consisting solely pictures of underage girls titled jailbait.

None of the time that libertarian beliefs could protect civil liberties is it ever taken seriously. It exists solely to launder corporate protections and deregulation.

Nothing significant happen to the NSA after the Snowden leaks, nothing significant happened to the FISA court. Also I don’t get how something like CBDC ever exists because of how powerful Visa is.

The way I would solve all of this is make disappearing servers so you can just share a server link and add people in the interface that way. I have almost never added people externally most of it comes from in server interactions.

Just get a job where you have to pick up every call you get and some of them won’t be spam!

All that matters is that Facebook continues to be generally disliked by anyone who would run the next Instagram/WhatsApp/Oculus. But as recent events such as Figma show anything it probably just means another 0 so they have to spend 10,20,30 billion instead of the 1 or 3 they used to.

I know it’s only been a day or so but this is bad only because they are unbanning boring posters and none of the fun ones who got banned. Sad to see paring back of moderation happen only to groups like this.

Texas is the opposite of this situation because they purposely didn’t connect their grid to anyone else. The US equivalent for mismanagement would be the Colorado River.

The real problem with this situation is we are at a point at which deploying fixes to these problems take so long that even discussing it feels useless.

The real answer is they want to reduce the chance of someone intentionally using it offline because it’s more convenient or easier in a specific situation.

I agree with your sentiment but this seemed in the keynote to be something you had to do on purpose and not like the normal always on find my.

Yeah a few times in the start I would always get egg upgrades from 12 to 18 or even one time 36. It happened for a few other things and I do think if you did it frequently enough you could learn how to game it but nowadays it’s riskier.

Yeah it worked for a while for me but the person I’m getting the stuff for has all the alerts on their device so I just turn most of the substitutions off. There were a few times where I had generous substitutions but I think they reigned those in.

Walmart has also fed into this a lot by making it so they are your one stop shop by making it ship stuff that isn’t in stock at your local store. They also by default will give you substitutions if you are doing an online store pickup or delivery order which only has more room for abuse or manipulation of substituting your items for things they need to get rid of etc.

I only use it for a family member but they have intentionally continuously degraded the ui/ux to make it so you fall into these traps and have even basically made it so all of the filters reset every time you search.

You can look at many accounts from the mid 2010s but the one I can recall the most clearly was FB updated to the algorithm and everything was fine. They then began actively suppressed people who were posting YouTube links a few months later. They told at least Phillip Defranco that the reason was they should advertise. They then came back months later and instead said why not post your videos here. This failed policy years later re-emerged as the video push for news organizations where FB intentionally deceived them into pushing into video to on the platform only for them to later update to honest video view tracking and make all of the media companies realize there was much less viewership than they were initially told was there.
