Again, another shit stirring newspaper that loves to shit stir.

Its a non-story thats going to be feted by the reactionary right wing billionaire owned British press because they love attacking minorities, despite Marchmont Street being the site of 'Gays The Word', the first UK gay bookshop and having huge cultural significance.

Any other week, they would be attacking the woman who is complaining for being a black immigrant stealing welfare or somesuch nonsense

A few things to know here:

It's just a bit of shit stirring by a shit stirring newspaper that's owned by the son of a billionaire exKGB director, who was given a seat in the house of lords by one of the most corrupt prime ministers the UK has ever had, Boris Johnson.

At the mo, it would be something like macOS 15.5.1, iOS 18.2.2, etc

It will just move to year. major point update. minor point update so for example: 26.5.2

Do you understand how email works? You dont have 1 centralised email server. You pick one and thats your email address name@emailserver. It then talks to other email servers unless its blocked emails from that server.

In principal, Mastodon and Lemmy are exactly the same.

Even if he did realise, he wouldn't care as long as the grift keeps going & he can get back to golfing fairly soon

Last year Dario Amodei, the co-founder of leading AI firm Anthropic, put the current cost of training advanced models at between $100m and $1bn.

So his estimate is so vague as to be fucking useless.

How people haven't seen through this emperors new clothes nonsense & grasped that these are the bullshitting self appointed druids of the neo religion.

That bubble they keep mentioning is where they're all getting high off their own farts

it is very concerning that the tech companies could deny a business access to their platforms without proving their case in front of a neutral 3rd party, without offering their target a chance to defend themselves

This is a ludicrous position. He/infowars broke their ToC so they acted accordingly. If anything, they were incredibly lenient in not banning all the accounts prior to when they did.

You've also alluded that there's some kind of conspiracy against Jones by those companies..

by simultaneously banning it from all their problems (I guess you meant 'platforms') at once.

By using Hanlons Razor, I would posit that they acted at the last moment before it would blow back on them. The controversy surrounding the guy/company would have generated traffic/clicks/revenue and they wouldn't cut that off unless there were something that would negatively impact their future revenue.

No company acts out of others interests unless it has some effect on their own, thinking otherwise is just naive.

I've had some first hand experience of the Guardians IT systems and they can barely find their arse with both hands
