Convenience as in “it’s what I’ve always used and I understand it” or are you noticing some awkward aspects?

Great story.

It’s the sort of thing that I would hope could become community maintained once the authors have made some money off it.

That said, as the tires of electric vehicles tend to wear faster due to their heavier weight…

This gets repeated again and again, but hasn’t been my personal experience. I’d say my tyres are easily lasting twice as long than my previous diesel car.

Normally programming sessions with coworkers.

That’s too late.

Once they do it, they won’t reverse their path. They have to know they’re losing people now, before they commit. You can always start again after they change their mind.

So those are associated with Motorola Solutions now, or did the debt move to Lenovo?

It was specifically the OBS aspect I couldn’t get my head around.

Thats true but ID companies are not lobbying or making changes on a scale that matters. This change isnt going through because an id company lobbied the government.

This statement is what I’m disagreeing with. It just wrong.

These changes are going through because Palantir lobbied the government, or more specifically Peter Thiel. They have 34ish contracts with the government right now across MoD and NHS. One of the ID verification companies (Persona) is also his. This information drives the technologies he sells to the MoD for tracking individuals. Technology currently being used by ICE and in Gaza.

You’re right, it’s not about discord. It’s about making databases of all living people on earth and how they interact with each other.

There’s a number of MPs that have grave concerns about this relationship as well. https://youtu.be/cvDF7Z18Anc

Are you suggesting I should be setting up “private” streams via Twitch or YouTube when I want to do a pair programming session?

That’s not a solution.

Yes. It’s got immense influence in government policy.

My suggestion to friends is figure out what discord features you actually care about and find apps that do those things. Muble for audio, obs to screen share, xmpp or matrix to chat, etc.

Agree with the sentiment, but OBS to screen share? How does one do that?

I think I found Discord much more confusing than matrix, personally.

That said. Discord no longer exists for me. Account deleted today. Nothing of value was lost.

…because right wing parties will hate all the surveillance systems their opponents put in place when they take over.

Mumble

Legitimacy?

That changes if people like you start using it.

Kinda like Lemmy.

Palantir

It’s unhealthy because holding on to stuff like this just poisons you.

Do you know that she was involved in your move, or do you just suspect it? If it’s the latter, has it occured to you you might be wrong?

No, quite the opposite. Models are largely a mass of random looking numbers that can’t be compressed losslessly.
