Because there's 2 types of conservatives, the rich and greedy self centered ass hats who don't need an education. And then the stupid people. They'd be throwing away a part of their base if they allowed them to learn.
In a literal theft from the people sense? Yes. In reality? No, he's rich so he can do what he wants. Laws are to keep us poor in check, not to be fair.
To be fair that could be a lot worse. I was expecting injected webpage content. I think this is acceptable and serves as a quick way to compare multiple sources. I dislike that it's Microsoft more than I do the actual "feature".
Actually it's absolutely realistic and fair. I don't like Musk, or Tesla for that matter. But they make it pretty damn clear that you're 100% responsible for the vehicle when using that feature. Anyone who assumes they don't need to pay attention is a moron and should be held responsible. If a 747 autopilot system starts telling the pilot to take control of the plane and they don't... we wouldn't blame the manufacturer, we'd blame the shitty pilot that didn't do their job.
The many instances and multiples of the same communities across all instances would absolutely be confusing to your average joe. But, once you start using Lemmy you realize understanding all that doesn't matter and it just works. As for the stability thing.... A fediverse of new communities based on open source software has growing pains? Gasp.... The article reads like that person is truly unaware of how software works in the beginning.
The music industry adapted for the internet. Film and TV will need to do the same if they want to reduce piracy to nothing like music. Naturally an all in one streaming service won't be cheap like music due to costs. But 50$ for a one stop shop video streaming service seems fair to me. 50$ split across multiple UIs feels like a rip. The music industry also made compromises on profits so greedy ol Hollywood can do the same. But let's be real, they try to make copyright a criminal offense through lobbying before that.
Because good journalism is expensive and the space is so much more competitive in the digital age. Also greed, usually it's greed preventing us from having good things.
Right? Oil companies have been doing literally everything in their power to suppress green energy so that they can milk their dirty cash cow. Capitalism is 99% of the problem.
No, X is a letter. But it doesn't matter what you call a shitty product, it's still a shitty product. I'll also keep calling it twitter.
