The lawsuit does not involve Germany in the slightest

Meta is launching a Twitter clone that's supposedly going to be fediverse-compatible eventually. Everyone's panicking now and blocking the domain before it can connect to any instances because zuck sucks

I've had access to 4 for several weeks and it's not really much better. Maybe I'm just asking too much of it though.

If you're in the EU you can send a GDPR data takedown request, then if they fail to honor it you may be able to get a kickback from any fines they get slapped with

Strongly disagree about gpt being excellent for code, it's extremely confident about the wrong answer most of the time. I've found it to be mildly useful as a Stack Overflow alternative (for asking general questions and having it point me in some direction) but it's code outputs are garbage.

These instructions won't work in anyone's unraid box, even if they compile compose from source. Not sure why people think posting random chatGPT'd instructions is remotely useful.

What's the point of this game, beyond letting them harvest user data to sell to data brokers? It doesn't seem like this really integrates with Pokemon Go or the Switch games as far as syncing Pokemons between them, and anyone that actually cares about sleep tracking would be using their phone's built-in health app or they'd have some top-rated sleep tracker from the app stores.

If it let you move Switch Pokemon over to be a day-care type thing while you sleep I could kinda see it having some use, but otherwise this just seems like shovelware with a Pokemon theme.

Probably, it'd be pretty stupid not to put his ex-Twitter engineers on the Threads projects. But it's entirely legal to have your employees work on something close to what they did at their last job. I'd be very, very surprised if Meta knowingly allowed stolen IP to be incorporated into their new product, Musk needs to provide some evidence to back his claims.

What "trade secrets" does he claim were stolen? Obviously ex-Twitter employees who move to Meta know their tech stack. But there's not a chance that their codebases are compatible so even if someone directly carried cover over from Twitter to a new job at Meta, it's not like it would be useful.

And if he thinks current Meta employees are still accessing Twitter IP/code/etc, Elon probably needs to first look internally and maybe not fire entire security & compliance teams.

You seem popular, it may be a good idea to invest in some queuing poles and velvet ropes for all the people that want to have intercourse with you

Karma/reputation is currently a thing here, it just isn't rendered in Lenny's UI. Memmy and Mlem for iOS both show totals on the user profile page. You have 806 post reputation, for example

Article suggests you simply get blocked from watching additional videos. But there's no info on how that works- is it account based? IP based? Can I wipe my YouTube cookies to bypass a block?
