Jesus, Michael Dell vibes over here

But dopamine

If anything, what this has really shown is he’s exceptionally bad at software-first companies and people. His successes have been in high risk manufacturing markets blended with software methodology, ie reusable rockets, electric vehicles, and storage.

I honestly think he’s just a guy clearly on the spectrum with grand visions that works in certain markets and completely fails in others. Regardless of his poor character, ascribing everything to luck seems a little emotional to me.

…timelines kinda match up I guess?

Man, imagine having to ctrl+F X when the name changes again

Really had high hopes for Lemmy after coming over from Reddit, but the active community here is just so busy jerking off about being federated and banning threads.

Holy shit, is 33 really “never to old to learn” territory?

Could this potentially be viable as interlinks between multi-planetary satellites? Or are there solutions for that better worth exploring?

Respawn across the board has been very impressive throughout its existence, clearly one of the premier studios you can let do whatever they want.

I’m really curious to see them try their hand in a new genre overall, but they seem to be a very focused group that are aware of their strengths.

The Star Wars Jedi games do a good job at making money for EA, so this seems logical.

I believe 300m was the last count.

I wish there was a way links could auto-resolve to the instance I’m logged in with.

They can get that data by setting up a federated instance that isn’t threads.net

Threads does not need to steal people from the Fediverse. We are minuscule compared to Threads in just one day. Threads already has more content and engagement then us. They do not care about the Fediverse, they do not care about stealing people from the Fediverse. At most, the only reason they want to “support” it is because it makes them look good compared to the apocalyptic hellfire that is currently Twitter.

Good boy points are way more valuable to Meta than actual Fediverse users. They’re after Twitter users, not a small group of hardcore tech anarchists.

The only reason I talk here is because I don’t want Lemmy to die.

An innocent member of the Fediverse that doesn’t federate with anybody.

It’s really good for tech, news, and memes - but anything related to sports or culture is pretty much non-existent. Sure sport news make it through into the NBA community for example, but no one is actually engaging - pretty much feels like an RSS reader in there.

My bad, I forgot how to count

They’re going to hit 100k users in under 24 hours, why on earth would they care about federating with anyone?

Great idea, I’ll add this myself today. Thanks!
