You say that as if companies weren’t pushing over the air firmware updates these days

Inb4 they “update” the firmware and suddenly they stop working if you’re not subscribed

In this modern era? Most likely not

So they can track your driving habits better

Maybe people are tired of everything in lemmy being about politics

I don’t know where you live but there’s probably a bunch of call centers in your country with similar policies that are 100% compliant with the law

Ah but that one isn’t your own it’s shared

Ah such a masterful plan, paying for your own internet

If you dumb it down enough that’s exactly what humans do with our legs

Love you’re getting down voted for being against censorship, lemmy hivemind at it’s finest

Gotta love how no company ever tells you which part of the terms of service where violated

Give them time until they figure out a way to make smart monitors sell somewhat and the entire industry decides that’s the way to go

Yup that’s why internet archive is a thing, a site should not be forced to host their content forever but the hivemind in lemmy has a hard on against any and all corporate entities and they’ll justify any kind of over reach as long as it’s against one

Gotta love the lemmy hive mind being pro censorship just to hate on elon

Having contacted them to get a contract going for the non free license before I doubt they actually give a shit about Foss. They literally wouldn’t give me a price without knowing how many employees the company I was being outsourced to had. And we wanted to self host so it wasn’t even a matter of their costs they literally charge based on what you look like and the schemes were insane they would charge us for amount of active systems and their traffic when we were literally self hosting them

Yeah they’re totally not charging you for the expensive suspension they’re installing in your car in the hopes that you’ll pay a subscription to use it. 100% not included in the price, clearly no one would ever do that

Except that you have to have special way more expensive shocks to have adaptive suspension compared to fixed. It’s like being sold an I3 CPU for the price of an I9 cpu while being told you can pay a subscription to upgrade to the full performance

But how can I make it about women issues then?

I know the lemmy hivemind jumps at any opportunity to trash reddit, but if properly implemented (which to be honest they probably won’t ) this could be the same as paid forums back in the day. It just depends on how much of a cut they get and how do they manage revenue share. If you could have your own private forum for free and have people subscribe to it for 2 bucks a month and you get 75% revenue of every sub it would probably spring a lot of high value forums, I’m mostly thinking like car forums used to be but it’d probably be used as another only fans

Doubt the general consumer thinks that, in sure most of them are turned away because of the unreliability and how ham fisted most implementations are
