I mean yeah I agree, hence why I already said that after rethinking about it the factor of money doesn’t make sense for a potential reason to sell TikTok

With China/the CCP’s supposed financial struggles, selling TikTok to Elon for immediate liquidity does actually make sense.

huh just the fact that this could happen is a bit funny to see as it does signal that capitalism is a stronger force than authoritarianism

very odd

Edit:
Actually rethinking about this, I’m reconsidering the idea that instead of money the CCP’s probably wants the control of public perception, money doesn’t really make too much sense as selling TikTok would only provide short term cash unless they’re desperate… surely not right?

No worries
Provided you make the necessary improvements hopefully your next post and vid will be receieved better, best of luck!

You’ll have better luck gaining upvotes and positive comments if you can provide descriptions and links for whatever this is

It’s actually different and better as the previous naming scheme was actually horrendous (trying to explain it to customers was a nightmare).

Cause previously if you wanted to figure out what speed of USB port you were getting you’d have to look up the table because me telling you that a port was USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 doesn’t tell you jack shit.

Can you see how cursed this is for non-tech savvy people? Absolutely terrible.

Thankfully now the new naming scheme will be:
USB +

• 5 Gbps
• 10 Gbps
• 20 Gbps
• 40 Gbps

So the xkcd meme actually isn’t relevant here.

Edit:
Revised grammar in the first sentence

True and fair enough👍

I’d suggest posting this to any news community as it might not gain traction here in the technology community

Edit:
Looks like I was wrong so feel free to ignore this comment.

I agree, the title is pretty useless.

Even something like “Fully charged a double A battery in 28 seconds” would’ve been useful/interesting.

I have to wonder if the same bullshit from before is reocurring:

Itch.io went offline due to a ‘trash AI-powered’ phishing report / Itch blames pop culture collectibles company Funko for the issues with its website.

Edit:
It’s working albeit very slowly, maybe this was an intermittent outage

no worries🤗

Same question as the other comment, do you know of any way to export posts/comments from a Lemmy instance? Trying to decide if I delete this account or just leave it as is.

Unfortunately as far as I know this isn’t yet possible, someone please correct me if I’m wrong.

Currently my suggestion is to create a 2-way-link via your profile:

Currently the Voyager app doesn’t show profiles but your profile and links will show up on the Raccoon app
Hope this somewhat helps!

@Static_Rocket@lemmy.world and @neblem@lemmy.world thanks for mentioning Servo👍

I didn’t know about that rust-based alternative until now and I agree; even Servo would’ve been a better choice than Chromium.

Chromium really?

After the whole debacle of manifest v3 they’re really choosing Chromium of all browsers to develop on?

Mozilla has made some controversial decisions but surely Firefox would be the better decision for the Linux and FOSS ecosystem.
Even better why not Librewolf?

Seeing this news makes me sad as there are better options available and the Linux foundation chose the worst one out of all of them.

• [EFF] Chrome Users Beware: Manifest V3 is Deceitful and Threatening
• Tens of thousands of Chrome extensions at risk due to Manifest V3
• Your privacy on Chrome is at risk, here’s what you can do

Ironically I also just saw this here on the fediverse: Google loses in court, faces trial for collecting data on users who opted out

Here’s a couple that I think are good so far:

• lemmy.ca
• slrpnk.net
• lemmy.blahaj.zone
• pawb.social
• feddit.org

I’m recommending these based on:

• threads blocked at minimum (fedipact being optimal)
• good wholesome community activities and interactions
• high number of trustworthy admins to provide you support and for content moderation (unless you like spam and zero-sum nonsense)
• useful and cool local communities
• my past exp with fellow moderators

Some will be more or less useful or interesting to you so honestly feel free to choose whichever you think fits best for you🤗

Can’t say I’m surprised

Well…
If you’re a Threads/Fediverse user you might want to consider taking a look at the instances that are federated with Threads depending on what you think about this news.
