A long time ago I read some cyberpunk novel, and one of the characters had an ocular implant that got infected with malware that flashed spam ads for Indian brothels in his vision 24/7, even with his eyes closed, until he went completely postal.

Let them try! It’ll be natural selection in action.

I don’t know if any of that has made it here, but I’m pretty sure back in the old place, one of the many modalities of trolls/bots/astroturfers out there is the Despair Troll.

Oh, the world is ending! Trump will never be defeated, we might as well all pack our bags and leave the country!

I’m thinking Roger Stone, though it could be Bannon.

Not collecting data or breaking your brain with advertisements, though periodically, they’re gonna have to go hat in hand, and beg users to feed their Patreon. Hey, I’m more than happy to throw a little in!

Nice thing about this business model is that being a nonprofit, the point of its existence is to fulfill its mission (to help independent distributed social media thrive), instead of to make money for owners/shareholders.

There’s several clients in the works - I’ll be looking at Sync for Lemmy, as I was a customer of Sync for Reddit.

Oh yeah, if I were in their shoes, I’d be utterly crushed!

Might get to the point where anti-DDOS measures have to be used against AI scrapers.

Since Superheavy is still under power (center 3 engines, at 50%), maybe it just steers out of the exhaust before Starship lights the vacuum Raptors.

Aye

The only difference between today’s MAGA movement and the OG Nazis is the branding.

In the case of that Detonating Craniums board, the content is indeed abusive. Having had the poor taste to peek, (NSFW, trigger: bigotry)

They’re completely despicable. They need full defederation.
