@Mee@reddthat.com Is the tradition the Animal House experience while in school and then graduating to multiple job offers that pay well enough that your income alone was enough to buy a house and raise a family. Because if that’s the tradition they are looking to continue, I’ve got some bad news.

Online education should make education more affordable. Instead, most organizations charged only slightly less than in-person credits.

@juergen@feddit.org Are you a Tesla owner who only charges at Telsa charging stations? Tesla doesn’t even own the majority of charging stations in the US. They only recently started allowing non-Teslas to use their chargers. Where did you think all the other EVs were charging?

Tesla will be taken over by PE who will sell off the charging network. Once rebranded as ChargePoint or Electrify America, they will will no lobger be targeted by vandalism and arson. The cost of removing the toxic Tesla brand isn’t trivial, but the locations and infrastructure have value. They won’t just be turned off when there is profit to made.

@juergen@feddit.org “Fuck Elon” is becoming the punch buggy of this generation.

Combine a toxic brand with a level of ridiculously poor Quality Control we haven’t seen from a US automaker since the Saturn brand, and you get a price point/distressd asset that PE will be looking at. They’ve already calculated the value of selling Tesla for parts and just waiting for the stock to hit a number to act. Elon is so over leveraged, there will be nothing he can do to stop it.

@Tea@programming.dev being threaten with jail time and fines won’t be enough, but the potential punishment needs to be so severe and harasment so relentless they’d consider hanging themselves instead. Aaron Swartz will not be forgotten.

@Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world my kids (8 and 11) play “fuck elon”. It’s slugbug for cybertucks. We don’t encourage profanity, but don’t punish them when they use it appropriately. This seems VERY appropriate.

When I learned to write headlines 30 years ago, the goal was to capture the gist of the article. We’d write something like…

Proposd Take It Down Law Would Be Used as a Weapon

I’m not sure it’s possible to train AI to write effectively headlines after 20 years of clickbaiting and controversy “journalism”.

@haverholm@kbin.earth I don’t know much about this plugin, but I do know it was “aquired” by Automattic… basically meaning that the developer was hired to work for Automattic. I don’t watch every episode of As WP Turns, but in the last episode of that drama I watched I think Matt announced that Automattic was scaling back their contributions to the open source aspects of WP… which would include this plugin.

If you want to see this change, you will likely need to make the request in the form of a PR. If you don’t have the knowledge and skills required to do that (and aren’t willing to invest the time it take to gain that knowledge and skill), I suggest you start being more professional and polite when making requests for the changes you want.

You’ve paid nothing for this code. Have some empathy for the maintainer.

@mesamunefire@lemmy.world I was just discussing how to add NodeBB comments to Drupal in https://community.nodebb.org/post/103485

@mesamunefire@lemmy.world @m_f@discuss.online

There have been 2.5 million WordPress posts pushed to ActivityPub. The engagement on this is near zero, but it is happening.

The MAU number is complete BS. Most of these users don’t even know the WP instance they are logging into gives them a federated presence. Logging into WP makes the use active in the endpoint used to share data with https://fedidb.org/software/wordpress

@anzo@programming.dev are you referring to kbin.melroy.org? Don’t let the DNS fool you. Like most Kbin instances, kbin.melroy.org is now running Mbin. In fact, kbin.melroy.org is run be the developer leading the Mbin project. My understanding from following a bitnofnthe Kbin/Mbin drama was that Melroy tried contributing to Kbin, but found Earnest unwilling to collaborate or delegate. If you look at https://fedidb.org/software/mbin, you’ll see many of the large instances that launched with kbin in the URL are actually running Mbin now.

@anzo@programming.dev when I joined Pixelfed, I was able to use my fosstodon.org account. Do any of the MBin instance allow that type of cross service authentication yet?
