The landlord I know that makes a shit ton of money inherited the homes from their parents.

He’s 100? He’s so present and doesn’t just look younger, but he really acts younger.

Hey workers of any kind, remember how fast these companies tried to replace you. It wasn’t because they thought the tech was cool.

- Comment on Seriously Jesus, who was doing that for that to be added 😭 1 week ago:
I understand what he’s saying, he’s saying that the followers believe something different.
I’m saying none of that matters. It’s like being Catholic versus Lutheran, but Jewish vs. other Jewish that thinks Jesus was the Messiah. Still Jewish for at least decades, probably centuries.
They believed that while he was still alive. We know this because he and his disciples celebrated Passover at the last supper.
- Comment on Seriously Jesus, who was doing that for that to be added 😭 1 week ago:
Also, Jesus probably meant for this rule to end for adherents of Christianity.
I mean, Jesus was Jewish and he wouldn’t have called his followers Christians because he hadn’t died on a cross yet. He would have called them his Jewish brothers and his followers would have done the same for decades afterwards. He was the leader of a sect of Judaism.

This is an ad for AI at the end. Kind of disappointed.
- Comment on Getting mixed signals from Reddit. Furthermore I shall henceforth be on Lemmy full time. 2 weeks ago:
I did not communicate that well. I didn’t mean “just left” as in recently, I meant I left out of the blue 100%. When I’m done with something, I’m done. Did the same with lemmy .world. I don’t log in and I don’t look at any of the old places. Randomly, I get info from a search, but that’s it.

I bet they’re focusing on the old.r users, they’ve been wanting to get rid of that for awhile. If they shadowban you and leave on your own randomly, there won’t be another mass exodus. That’s conjecture though.

Having gone cold turkey and just left, it’s weird no matter how you leave. Realizing how addicted I was, was kind of hard for my psyche.

I think you have to have copilot installed to have the recall spyware though.
- Comment on Consumers make their voices heard as Microsoft's huge venture flatlines in popularity 2 weeks ago:
Glad to see it. It begs the question though, if they could get computers to want to talk to other computers and Microsoft could somehow make money, would that make them happy? Is computer to computer business something corporations want?
That’s right; Microsoft Copilot’s weekly user base is only 5% of the number of people who use ChatGPT, and it’s not increasing. It’s also worth noting that there are approximately 1.5 billion Windows users worldwide, which means just over 1% of them are using Copilot, a tool that’s now a Windows default app. This is quite scary from Microsoft’s point of view, which has put so much effort and money into its AI ventures that it really cannot afford for its business to dwindle out so soon.

Here’s the video. The one police guy nopes out almost immediately.
- Comment on May Christ be with us 3 weeks ago:
I had someone on reddit argue that the icons show “white” people on their gravestones, so he was probably white. I think he really believed it and it was pretty hilarious to see them do brain exercises to get Jesus to be white. Never mind that the coloring was probably adjusted on the screen, the pigment was falling off and they were 2000 years old. Also, it’s encaustic, which is painting with wax and has a sheen.

I know that they’re probably deported to El Salvador because E.S. made bitcoin their national currency.
It looks like it no longer is because it was a failure. I bet they still have a way to launder bribes through their system though
In December, 2024, El Salvador, in an agreement for a $1.4 billion loan from the IMF, agreed to reduce bitcoin purchases, removed the mandatory acceptance of Bitcoin requirement on merchants, will no longer accept tax payments with the asset, and will wind-down its involvement in the Chivo wallet.[77][78]

- Comment on Adobe Creative Curse 4 weeks ago:
They’re fast enshitifiers, they’ll buy great products and make them subscription or way worse. An example of a way worse way is Unsplash, where they would offer free products and you could buy some of the photos. The ones you have to purchase used to be at the top or bottom, like PixaBay does. But now they’re mixed in and random. I don’t use it anymore. They ruin everything to the point where if I see they’re involved, I don’t use the product. I know it’ll turn bad soon. I’ve bought from Pixabay occasionally. They might enshitify too, but so far they’ve been great.
