Technology@lemmy.world•ByteDance won't sell TikTok, would rather pull it from the USEnglish
71·2 years agoYouTube and Instagram have features that are in direct competition with TikTok. YouTube has even been more aggressive in promoting themselves as the TikTok alternative. On top of that the US government has an incentive to keep them (Google and Meta) happy; since the US routinely spies on its own (and other countries) citizens through these companies.

1112·2 years agoI’d love to see any evidence of TikTok acting on behalf of any country (especially China) as a hostile actor, or even any evidence of legitimate election interference. If anything banning TikTok is a significantly more hostile response from the US since it silences another forum for free speech.
Social media is a cancer, but this ban is such obvious propaganda. The only reason TikTok was banned because the US government doesn’t have free reign to spy on its users like it does with Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc.
If the US government truly cared about social media and it’s affects they would be regulating all of it. Instead they’re trying to ban TikTok while screaming their heads off about China every chance they get. And that’s before mentioning the extremely shady way they passed this; attaching it as a rider through a government ‘aid’ bill.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL Minimum wage has only increased by $7.00 in 85 years in the USA.English
302·2 years agoMinimum Wage workers/general laborers are the literal backbone of any work force. Their value is literally instrumental to any and all industries. These industries would simply collapse if minimum wage workers are taken out of the equation. And that’s without pointing out that wage isn’t indicative of how important someone is to a workplace.
And automation doesn’t mean much when you still need an entire force to upkeep all of those machines. And I’d bet my right arm and left leg that if wage pricing is left to corporations that they’ll place said workers at minimum wage if they can get away with it.

Technology@lemmy.world•Apple removes app created by Andrew TateEnglish
91·2 years agoI stop reading after that since those are made up words.
Ahh, so you’re a complete fucking moron then. Checks out since you’re defending Andrew “I moved to Romania so I wouldn’t be charged with rape” Tate.

Technology@lemmy.world•GTA 6 Hacker Found To Be Teen With Amazon Fire Stick In Small Town Hotel RoomEnglish
141·3 years agoIt did look very similar to GTA V, but it’s also worth noting that pretty much all of the footage was from very early production. It’s likely that they were using less detailed character/world models for testing purposes. I imagine the game will look pretty damn good and modern once the proper lighting and textures are applied.
Ultimately I don’t remember anything incredibly interesting from the videos I saw outside of a couple of story beats revolving around the new main characters. It seemed like most of the videos were pretty much testing certain console and systems at non-specified points in game.
You’re right: you were being a condescending asshole. And then OP replied in good faith, and you proceeded to look like a dumb condescending asshole with nothing to say. Great job.
RIP hexbear.
They literally engaged in good faith asking what to read just for you to reply like a condescending twat.
You can’t even follow through on your original point, and you look like an insufferable idiot.


If you’re looking for a technical term, you would fall under gynosexual. But even with the term: only you can truly define your own sexuality.
