I’m so glad that most imported products in my country are no longer made in the USA. I’m not even a strong believer in the effectiveness of consumer boycotts, this is just a health consideration at this point.

Avoiding them is how you get a Nazi bar.

It looks like lemmy.ml didn’t remove it, but their staff are certainly anti-ICE, plenty of posts there for weeks full of outcry.

I can’t see evidence that it’s banned. I’m on .ml and can see it just fine. It would be in the modlog if it were banned.

There’s a big leap between a website publishing Tesla owners’ information and assuming that people with older cars are included (in fact, I only found Tesla dealerships and DOGE employees from a quick look around), and from there assuming any activists using that information are being uncritical and just attacking any car they see. Even in this post there are people explaining how to identify older models.

I’ve seen plenty of articles and social media footage of Tesla cars being sprayed, burned and smashed and all of them I’ve seen were cybertrucks and dealership lot cars.

There’s been 2 attacks on CEOs since

List 'em pls

Luxury doesn’t imply quality. Plenty of luxury items are worthless trash, and it’s pretty clear that a main reason for their price dive is to do with context more than the product.

but punishing a working class citizen with a 5 year old car

Is this something that is actually happening? Or is this a hypothetical edge case that assumes anti-Tesla activists are ignorant?

It still looks like there’s a clearweb site: https://dogeque.st/

I’m not sure if it’s a mirror or the OG. Love the custom cursor.

And, for convenience, the .onion link: dogeqstqzn2yjns2d6ccns7aa52tglno63ay2uv2orfvd7e23khcsxid.onion (you will need Tor to access)

Thanks for checking, it’s refreshing to see that attitude and care online.

Ah, right. I’m not familiar enough with US law to realize.

It has to be organized for one.

I disagree. Consider racist mass shootings by lone perpetrators. It’s clearly an act attempting to incite terror and tension, many of them make it clear in their manifestos that they’re trying to spark a ‘race war’. But it’s not organized, beyond being the result of stochastic terrorism.

The first time I heard about him beyond a vague “electric car person” post was from a tech co-worker in 2017, where they said they read a biography of Elon where they basically labelled him a sociopath. So, just to emphasize to anyone in the back-row, it’s certainly not news.

One of my sites was close to being DoS’d by openAI’s crawler along with a couple of other crawlers. Blocking them made the site much faster.

I’d admit the software design offering search suggestions as HTML links didn’t exactly help (this is a FOSS software used for hundreds of sites, and this issue likely applies to similar sites) but their rapid speed of requests turned this from pointless queries into a negligent security threat.

GOOD LUCK WITH THAT IM BEHIND SEVEN PROXIES

Sure, that’s technically true, but I think it’s acceptable for this infographic’s purpose.

• I don’t believe a US company profits from someone using LibreWolf (unless you want to count volunteer labor if someone upstreams their contributions, which doesn’t apply to most of the target audience)
• As you said, any other usable browser is going to be based on Chrome, FF or Apple tools. So what should it say? Nothing? Even if it’s not perfect, I believe LibreWolf is a far better suggestion than just leaving them with a default choice like Chrome or Edge, or something unusable on sites they want to use.

why not just Linux?

Choice paralysis is a real obstacle for casual users who don’t have specific needs (e.g. anti-proprietary values) and don’t want to know what a kernel or a binary blob is, we’ve even seen this with Lemmy and other Fediverse options. So giving a specific distro suggestion is effective for this, and then later enabling them to move to other distros if there’s one more suited to them.

Linux Mint is generally well-received by beginner users, especially those moving from Windows which is similar enough to Cinnamon. Even if it’s not the ideal distro, it’s one which I believe casual users are less likely to reject. Hardware is more likely to ‘just work’, including graphics cards and non-free codecs. Non-free software readily appears in the app store, which is important if users are still dependent on them (e.g. their hobby group only uses Discord). While I personally believe in, support and create FOSS software, I don’t see how FSF-endorsement is important to the target audience, and if it risks them complaining that their NVIDIA GPU is acting weird or they’re having trouble installing proprietary tools they need for work, then I’d compromise and give them the smoothest reasonably-free option possible and allow them to decide to move to another distro later when they’re more familiar with Linux and how easy it is to try out distros.

Glancing at the article, this quote stood out:

This regulation takes effect on September 1, 2025, and will compel all service providers (i.e., AI LLMs) to “add explicit labels to generated and synthesized content.”
