And boy - what a great way to ensure that nothing is learned!

Here's a post from someone trying to learn, and get a bit of context from more learned people, and you just shit all over them?

Shameful.

Thanks at least for showing me that actually - the feddeverse isn't for me. Ta ta!

I love that there's casually an Abrams in the middle there.

Ha - I lashed a strimmer to my folding e-bike a couple years back.

Honestly, very little I couldn't do with that thing. If they'd pull their finger out on upping the allowed power output on transport bikes I'd probably switch to using that for my lumber trips too.

Fun fact - those are not entirely unrelated entities.

Basically the same here. WhatsApp is basically "dial-a-boomer" on my phone.

Little sad that Signal dropped SMS support, but I get it.

I've never had a car with a touch screen or whatever fancy centre panel - but I have scrapped old cars because the ECU decided that there was an airbag fault which was not resolved with a new airbag. I'm a full time sysadmin/developer - my car does not need a computer to go, and if it must have one, it shouldn't be a brick covered in epoxy.

I somewhat long to return to dumb electromechanical components like distributors, rather than unimaginably expensive, irreparable, interdependent systems.

I don't feel like this is a technology post, purely another anti-consumer business decision being levied against us.

As for the whole "piracy has rejoined the chat" "hello old friend" discourse - pirate what? The One Piece live action? Post-Cavil Witcher? TV hasn't been worth watching in a good while, netflix even longer. I barely turn mine on anymore.

Okay, noted, buy all my Ubisoft and EA games through G2A etc 😂

I hit a lot of American sites that want to process my data in a malicious way that would be illegal.

Rather than fix the issue, the side just redicts to a "we're sorry to our European friends" - like fuck off, it's been years you cunts.

Anyway, to answer your question - it protects them from legal liability.

I think I have this exact image on an external hard drive somewhere. I need to fish that out for delicious Lemmy karma haha
