It’s Microsoft’s current CEO. All he is interested in is subscription revenue. Xbox hardware is next to go.

Breaking up Microsoft would be the best thing they could do right now. But it won’t happen.

The decline of unions will do that to you. We’re in a second Gilded Age.

For your kindergartner, look into locking apps behind Face ID/Touch ID.

Try watching season four. It gets retooled and gets much better.

I’m not. Today in Austin was “feels like 110 degrees Fahrenheit” according to the weather app.

I doubt it’s a problem in only Africa.

I was actually pleased that it came out of Tim’s pocket and not the corporation.

Austin leaders consider new resident utility fee (communityimpact.com)
 

The fees on my water bill are already over $100 per month. Maybe if we weren’t paying to build multimillion dollar pylons for I-35’s non existent parkland (that we also can’t afford to build or maintain) we wouldn’t have to come up with more new fees.

Beneficial nematodes - yay or nay? (lemmy.world)
 

I’ve got grubs in my vegetable garden. I looked into spraying nematodes to kill them, but I’m worried about it harming other bugs like butterflies, bees, and fireflies. Anyone have any experience with this? I don’t want to do more harm than good.

What goes well with celery? (lemmy.world)
 

I know that some people eat celery with hummus. Or put pimento cheese or peanut butter on it. Are there any other foods that you think go well with celery? I’ve got some celery in my fridge that I’m trying to eat up.

Feature request: block words & phrases (lemmy.world)
 

Apps like Bluesky allow you to create a list of block words for anything you don’t want to see. Is there already a feature request logged for this? I wouldn’t mind seeing a way to mass block the following:

  • word or phrase in title (like kardashian)
  • word in link source (like dailymail)
  • word in sublemmy (like meme)
  • word in tag (like #sports)

I dunno if it would significantly slow down app rendering of the feed, or if this kind of blocking would have to be a feature request for the server side instead.

Thanks for your time.

Why don’t Americans radiate foods? (lemmy.world)
 

Just finished reading an article about how raw alfalfa sprouts easily spread e-coli, but the problem could be solved by irradiation. So why don’t we?

After all, the US is the land of GMO, pesticides, washed eggs, chlorinated chicken, and pasteurized dairy. How could irradiated produce be any worse?
