my mom told me not to click links on internet…

Yes. Without it, this thing would simply be manipulation.

Basically like how some media report Russia being bombed by Ukraine.

Perhaps because THAT IS WITH WHOM THEY’RE CURRENTLY AT WAR WITH???

I hate to point out the obvious, but they didn’t accidentally confuse the two…

It might be, but who cares.

As a wise man once said: the time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.

If you don’t enjoy it, tho, then you’re definitely wasting your time for no good.

World leaders: “you know that’s not gonna happen.”

About 15 years ago we started transitioning from on-site computing to cloud. Now we’re reversing the trend under the guise of “edge computing”.

Ah yes, it’s around the time for thin clients of this cycle.

Sounds like an interesting story premise.

More on the creepy side if you ask me.

CNN as in “Central News Network” or “Convoluted Neural Network”?

I mean… we gotta eat.

The way some people think everything needs to look fancy and gimmicky.

Like, I get it, stuff would be better blending in with their surrounding fashion, but if we need to get thru more than three layers of menu to get to something we frequently use, it’s wasteful, and if it’s for something critical like in a car, it’s straight up dangerous.

Context matter, especially when you’re asking for fairness.

For one, how is she losing money?

• Does it mean somebody is straight up stealing, i.e. taking stuff without consent?
• Did someone make a deal that is less than beneficial to her?

If it’s the first one, than fuck it, you should beat the shit out of that thief.

If it’s the second one, then you should ask yourself how so, and why your mom thinks otherwise.

Also, if you think that she’s not paid enough and that she should monetize more, do note that monetizing something would take significant effort, and in some case could’ve taken the joy out of something she enjoy doing.

Valid point.

What I would like to add to it is that we will need to defend it from time to time.

We’ve already seen an example when Meta’s Thread tried to federate.

Spammers have also been a nuisance, and thankfully our mods & admins have been handling them well.

If what was meant when OP says ‘internet’ is the cesspool social media, then yes, we should totally ditch them.

However, the fact remains that the real definition of internet is simply a bunch of interconnected devices that run the internet protocol (IP), nothing more and nothing less.

Though I have my doubts, I’m not disagreeing with you or anything, just pointing out that there’s a lot of people confusing this term, and simple as it may be, it might be harmful.

I agree! If we give up and move somewhere else, they’d just follow us and ruin it.

That’s a good one!

Also not to be confused with RedoxOS.
