What’s the financial plan there? Or do you just want them to drop 80% of their budget or whatever it is and work for free?
Anyone who starts off telling you that they’re the most popular and trusted should probably not, in fact, be trusted. Especially if they’re calling for not using password managers. Passkeys are interesting in theory, but my understanding is that most of the implementations are just another way for big tech to track you.
As another poster detailed, this is not a company that exposed your info: these credentials are all from stealer logs, which are logs of credentials stolen by keyloggers installed on machines. If your credentials were in this report, it means that you’ve entered that username and password on a machine with malware on it. Could be your personal machine, or it could be some other computer you’ve used.
Oh my God, the Something Awful forums are still up: https://forums.somethingawful.com/
https://www.lemmyapps.com/ is a neat comparison site, but I’m not seeing any criteria around use of tracking data; is that just implied with the free vs paid column?
I don’t think this is a case of trying to make more money.
Sure it is: the only reason for DRM is to make more money.
What we’re seeing with Reddit is just the first stage of enshittification: making things worse for the end users who have been captured by network effect and what used to be a good service, in order to benefit advertisers. The second stage is making things shitty for the advertisers who have been captured by all the captive users. Paid subs are probably a harbinger of that kind of thing, but I don’t think advertisers are locked in enough to be really stuck yet.
With the U.S. government now in total control of a political party …
The quoted text means that the government controls the party. I believe what you mean to say is “With the US government now totally controlled by a political party …”
Why would anything socially progressive organize on Facebook? Most normal people I know have abandoned that platform, let alone anyone privacy-minded or anti-oligarch.
That you’d be a bad teammate: the kind of person who puts personal preference above what the group has decided and causes problems for no good reason; the kind of person who would insist on indenting with spaces when the whole team has decided to use tabs.
Snow Crash is almost kinda satire, but also not. Also, I believe, the first use of the term “metaverae”. It’s a fun read.

All that does is compel the recipient to stop what they’re doing and wait until you send the message, which, if you’re typing up a wall of text, could be minutes. This is like calling someone on the phone and, when they answer, saying “hello please hold”. Don’t do it; it’s super rude.
Going to the Labor board, at least here in Oregon, is pretty painless and may be doable while still working there. My only experience with them was after an employer just locked us all out of the building and closed one day, so continuing to work wasn’t an option for me. They treated me well and got me money quickly, then took the guy to court to get it back themselves.
Also, I don’t “keep talking” about much here; the comment you replied to was the first one I made :).
If you get fired for that, you should take them to your state’s Labor board and/or to court.
If we’re really lucky, maybe they’ll patent the idea and then everyone else will have to stop doing it.
If you just bring s whole other person in your checked bags, you save on ticket costs, too.
