But – I hope others don’t follow suit and make sharing content look like time square with motion everywhere.

ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto World News@lemmy.world•Via porn, gore and ultra-violence, extremist groups are sinking hooks online into the very youngEnglish1·4 days agoSorry? What? I’m not following any of this.
A decade ago, my friend went on a tinder date with a guy who said he worked in “protection services”. After the third date, he admitted that he’s actually a cop, which she was on the fence about. He begged her to stay.
Then after three months of dating, she broke up with him, deleted her social media, lived with her parents a few states away, and cut off all contact with everyone who known her.
Only about a year ago did she finally reconnect with her social group.
So yeah, that gut check is important.
I know this guy who is absolutely ridiculous about this.
On one hand, he can’t stand women’s groups, gets upset about women’s sports, can’t stop dismissing anything that isn’t solely masculine like yoga, dance, and even rages on women artists and musicians.
On the other hand, has BEGGED OUT LOUD to people (I’m not even his friend) to get him connected with “chicks”.
I have no idea how to tell this guy he’s a miserable hateful fuck who will die alone because of his own personality.

ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.nettoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•An open letter to U.S. customers101·9 days agoLet’s be real: we would rather make our products in the USA. Doing business in China is hard: a different language, a different culture, a different legal system, and a very long and expensive plane flight every time you have to pop over to help fix what’s gone wrong. So why don’t we make keyboards in the USA instead—and why don’t the vast majority of consumer electronics manufacturers, be they big or indie?
Most of our electrical components are made in China. Sometimes we’ll use or consider components not made in China—and they’re made in Japan, Taiwan, or Germany. The USA doesn’t make the components we need.
Making keyboards is intrinsically a cross-border activity. (For us, some of that activity involves shipping American goods to China! We make a number of products that use American wood. Unfortunately, China has just announced they will now tax that lumber at 34% in a retaliatory tariff.)
We’re a small company making niche products; we don’t have the volume to justify opening our own factory. We definitely don’t have the capital to do it. We rely on contract manufacturing, where we pay a network of factories to make products to our specifications, without us owning the machinery or hiring the workers ourselves.
Southern China, Guangdong and Shenzhen in particular, have developed an ecosystem of factories and suppliers within a small radius. Within about thirty miles, we work with a bunch of factories who are specialized in doing low volume production runs. Having so many companies close together saves a lot on transportation and freight. More importantly, it allows for local competition and sharing of knowledge—just like greater Los Angeles is the best place to make TV and movies even though other cities offer incentives, Guangdong is the best place to make consumer electronics.
The effects of the tariffs.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netto Games@lemmy.world•Should we boycott games with loot boxes?English29·9 days agoI started my protest a decade ago.
While you can argue that nothing happened and we still have loot boxes, I’d argue that my life is greatly enriched for not feeling any motivation to play in those looty skinner box games.
