I mean even with chatgpt enterprise you prevent that.

It's only the consumer versions that train on your data and submissions.

Otherwise no legal team in the world would consider chatgpt or copilot.

Usenet isn't a centralized thing though.... This is just Google groups stopping Usenet support. Plenty of newsgroup providers.

To quote Thor. Star citizen is a storefront pretending to be a game.

Because one side went into homes and kidnapped kids and mothers and dragged them back to Gaza after being gang raped. The other arrested people actually committing crimes. What is with people trying to "not make assumptions" about a terror group?

The people trying to go around claiming that Hamas just defending themselves from colonizers are no better than Sandy Hook deniers and claiming crisis actors lol.

Most of these people are over paid actually. Making without stock over 150k and then around the same in RSUs or more.

The issue is many folks were only doing like 3 or 4 hr a day and then double dipped to collect another paycheck because they had the time to. I don't necessarily fault them.

Friend of mine intentionally took a boring bank job making like 50k less than he was making (so around $125k a yr) so he could coast as a high performer there then planned and did find another gig in Pacific time (were east Coast) and then pulled two checks and still only worked like 42 hr a week.

This is the true reason there making work from home optional.

I mean after what happened it's going to turn a lot of people dark. No different than in the states after 9/11. I legit know people that signed up just to "kill some sand you know what's to get pay back". That's fucked up yes. And wrong. But hardly unexpected just like I expect citizens of Gaza to enmase celebrate the death of Jews now.

This is news because she was one of the first videos that went viral that day. And to this day there are still people denying it that she died and that she is home safe. There was even a so called interview with her mother who said she was alive. They even went so far to say the truck video was them bringing her to a hospital (ya know because you beat half naked in her underwear body with your sandals to administer first aid).

The Internet used "her being alive" as one of the first propaganda pieces to try to paint the photo that nothing happened Oct 7 and Israel are all liars.

Turns out it's exactly as the videos made it look. Just like the woman being led into a jeep with dark drried blood all over the ass of her pants was probably bleeding from mass rape even though the Internet tried to find every excuse for their behaviors.

Hamas are the terrorists preventing citizens from fleeing and using them as shields. They are at fault. Israel is not targeting civilians they are targeting Hamas outposts which Hamas purposefully puts in civilian zones hoping for protection.

Hamas literally wants to wipe all Jewish people from existence and started to do so. So far every one of the stories of what Hamas did to the Jewish folks has turned out to be true. Most of the Hamas ones have turned out to be bs.

Let's be clear. Jews haven't lived in Gaza since 2005. Gaza was given millions and millions of dollars in aid and supplies since. Instead of building a flourishing society, they built tunnels, bombs, and shoot rockets daily at Israel trying to kill Jews even though they don't live in Gaza. There are no "colonizing settlers" for nearly 2 decades.

Enough is enough. Peace is not an option here it's just a blanket that the bad guys use (and break the treaties for) all the time just to get a reprieve when sht gets real.

Because this was intended to reduce salaries. And many of those people who were laid off have been unemployed since and are likely desperate for a paycheck again.

You'll see these folks easily take a 50 to 100k cut on TC. (granted many are making 300k+ already)

Outlook simply connects to exchange. You can buy and run your own exchange email server. People have done it for years.

Gmail handles the spam filtering because the protocol hasn't changed since the 70s. It is the same protocol since then. It basically evolved to have spam lists and deliverability ratings based on necessity. Deliverability is impacted by many things including those outside of your control like your neighboring ip addresses. It's not hard. Just super tedious.

As others have said email is already federated but like most federated things to make it not a shit hole in today's world is a lot of work.

Ultimately this is the thing to worry about. Threads will get the largest communities and as a result the main amount of attention and when/if Meta decides to defederate, it will ruin things. Also, people will generally give zero shits about federation because 99.9% of content will be on meta's instance.

Ironically, the main thing keeping fediverse from being more popular (the decentralized approach and "multiple places the same community can exist") are going to be the thing that kills it if Meta gets involved and becomes the big boy.

Idunno what is arguably worse. The fediverse being restricted to more "technical" folks who give a shit, and thus a far more limited audience than a central platform, or being suddenly disconnected from the hivemind after taking all the content.

(Fwiw, I absolutely think that the Threads fediverse plan is to totally absorb all the content and become the main place for it then possibly pull the plug but honestly at that point they won't even need to the usage stats will basically do the same thing for them.)
