my apologies, apperently I need to clarify. It’s because that’s a big overstep. There is a big difference between telling the DoD we don’t want to do buisness with you, to telling the DoT you don’t want to do buisness with them. Refusing buisness from the DoD or the Pentagon shouldn’t impact your ability to do buisness with the other branches. It’s abuse of position.

This isn’t “oh my company doesn’t want to do buisness because you won’t agree to give us the keys” this is a “ok so myself and my parent company along with any affiliates with us are not going to be doing buisness with you for not giving us the keys to the kingdom.”

That’s my mentality of it anyway, I don’t think it violates the first amendment but, but I still don’t think it’s right.

I don’t agree that the government should be able to do what they’re doing regarding the company, but I don’t understand how it’s a violation of free speech.

It seems they’re trying to clarify that AI projects are a creative project used for expression of motion. And that seems like a stretch to me? I don’t know, I don’t fully understand it.

Like I agree that they were within their rights to refuse to do business with the US government, and I don’t agree that the response to them refusing it should be the US government blacklist their company for contracts. But I don’t see how those factors make it a violation of the First Amendment.

I would like to know the percentage between if they break the law and regardless if they break the law

I was meaning more of their Android by default phones, like most retailers are going to only sell the android version

they specify the grapheneos devices so I’m assuming they have a dedicated graphene OS product line.

is this only on their graphine devices? or are they leaving their android stock devices unlockable as well

I feel like it’s mostly temperature. I expect that they want to continue using untreated water to be able to have cooler temperature. That way they’re not having to spend money and time cooling their coolant down.

That’s my expectation anyway.

Reading the datasheet that someone else posted earlier on, it seems like that’s the case while they’re going to be doing temperature control. They’re making sure that the temperature stays within the criteria that they currently are required to do. And as such, means that they’re not having too cool it as much.

I lack the use case for this service but, it looks good on paper. Nice!

If I understand the project right, this would be a great opening for non-profit communities to make a page for the town and add the services, instead of the typical static pages

I use DDG as well. Have for years now, it’s actually gotten to the point where it gives similar if not better results than Google Search for me now.

If you look at the gulf from basically any other countries location (via vpn or otherwise) it’s still named as Gulf Of Mexico in most map software.

As much as Trump doesn’t like the thought, this name change is not going to be permanent. Names need to be accepted universally, you can’t just take something and say “yea its called this now” while everyone else laughs at you and expect that it’s going to stay.

for perspective, this is what it looks like on google maps (top) and apple maps(bottom) while vpn’d into Toronto. (excuse my poor copy/paste skills) Both clearly show that the gulf of Mexico is named the gulf of Mexico, and then add in parenthesis the new name that the US wanted to implement.

It worked, and was better than my previous instance.

I have problems with control and lack of choice, when my first instance started de-federating willy nilly I started growing distaste on it. To me it wasn’t about what /was/ being censored, to me it was the fact that they were doing so in the first place, while doing so with very little public input. It gave really large Karen/power trip vibes and made me feel like at the end of the day, they didn’t really care about the userbase.

Extremely bad. As in like people are dying emasse. It also wouldn’t be an immediate decision either, there would need to be research into whether A was leading to B and then on-top of that getting either society as a whole to ban it, or getting the legal framework to ban it in place which also takes quite a bit.

Without the legal framework banning it, if its something that would allow for personal gain, narcissists will use it regardless of the cause. Heck if its too bad of an outcome, anarchists or world-ender doomers could intentionally do it with the hope that said bad outcome occurs.

Mine is super basic as well. It’s just based off my favorite pokemon growing up (Pichu)

I dislike the concept of mega-threads. It has always sounded to me like a way to drown out information instead of allow for easy access to information, and lowers the importance of the individual post in favor of whoever is more popular.

I think a better option, would be enhancing the crosspost or tagging system to be able to categorize posts by a category, and then for “megathreaded” posts you can just assign a tag. A few front ends already allow you to do usually by putting your tags in parenthesis in the title.

To add onto what you said, yes I fully agree its not a good look to be like “You need to put that in the megathread” I’m less apt to put it in the thread and more apt to just not post it at all at that point.

That’s amazing to see, Regardless if it’s only one direction, that should still help wonders, thank you!

I definitely understand your reasonings for that. And I do agree having it default on does help raise awareness of communities.

My main reason that I’m against a default on is I’m always strongly against any type of action that does something on the behalf of someone else without it properly being relayed.

if the person who made the community wanted to advertise their community, they could reach out and send a message on their own, or they could turn it on, but having it default on creates cases like this, Where they weren’t even aware that it was making a post, it seems, until people started messaging them complaining about the amount of spam.

this would be an amazing addition! It would help avoid the disconnect between de-federated instances/communities

Basically many domain providers will hold onto domains for a little while after it expires.

Some like namecheap also advertise the domain names to peddle-man companies that will somehow buy temporary access to the domain after your extortion recall window expires.

To continue the namecheap example, when your namecheap domain expires, it gives you a lapse window where you can pay like double the cost of the domain renewal to reclaim it. If you don’t reclaim it during that window they give it to a middleman whom will somehow buy a 2 or 3 months domain lease for it. They will put it on a “site for sale” broker page and will charge you easily 100x what you paid for the domain if you wanted it back.

I would recommend just keep checking on it every few days to see if it gets released.

That sounds like a really dumb setting.

Like, I’m sure it’s helpful for people who want it. But, like, it definitely sounds like a setting that should be defaulted off, not defaulted on.

Lemmy ML mods banned it under AI account so looks like it.
