Better have a smorgasbord of different apps, it's great if we can get a decent competition going.

Mobile platforms need an effective way to block data hoovers. There is a reason everything is an app now and that is that mobile platforms aren't safe.

uplevel the search-and-discover experience for both brands and our users by tapping into our differentiated value as a hub for actionable conversation

This is peak corporate-speak. Is this real or satire?

The only thing I haven't seen AI take on successfully yet is liability. Who do you sue if your accountant AI loses a bunch of money?

I have seen huge corps buy stuff and employ a lot of people just to have scapegoats.

I mean every community moderates itself, if you don't like what one of them does, you cut it out of your feed.

It sounds exciting, imagine if mods would have to compete for shares of a topic instead of a group gatekeeping a big community.

A bit weird since they said they'll be supporting the current iteration till 2030.

I remember there was a whole saga about the original never making it to 64bit. I guess this is a remake, since the source was lost too IIRC

Have you seen the drama over at r/sysadmin? TBH whether Reddit survives this or not (I'm assuming it will), I'd rather be over here. TBH the smaller user base is actually a plus.

I guess we need open hardware for open drivers to be the norm.

This quite stupidly has some geopolitical implications as well, if "anyone" can manufacture decent GPUs, there goes the Western chip-making monopoly.

Quick question, wasn't that true for the US as well for a while? I seem to remember them meeting the same criteria for a recession, but the White House just said "it doesn't count!"

You just buy a big slab of meat, put it on a coat hanger on the patio, free smoked meat!

I once got a gigantic dinosaur storage array from a local university for 50 EUR. Check local stuff, it's like used furniture if you are in any bigger city.

One DDG search gave me this site, this offer seems reasonable, just check if it works first: https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/computers/servers/servers/listing/4170528497

Watch out for noise and power consumption though. If you want to dip your feet in, OrangePi stuff is definitely a good place to start, set up some networking stuff like PiHole, they are nice projects and you are not saddled with a 30kg piece of metal that screams like a jet engine until you're sure you want to.
