I saw an ad for Oura that made me chuckle the other day. It said “Oura - the original and most trusted ring” or something like that, and I thought “oh there are other ones to choose from, that are likely just as good and cheaper? Thanks for letting me know!”

Yay Lemmy.world, you kicked yourself in the dick, congrats.

Dude I was away on vacation chill. :-)

Entitlement, gross fatty entitlement.

We just set up a matrix server today and it works great, it’s very cool and neat, loving it so far!

Ah cool I didn’t know that, thank you!

You gotta be registered on an instance that allows users to create them, I think Lemmy.world does. Alternatively can ask the admins at your instance (or another one) to make one for you and they might.

Also try to use the Container feature in Firefox. I have acting Google all contained in one subset for example, so none of their tabs gets a view on my other tabs.

Hmm that’s an impressive development! I’ll subscribe to your world news sub to give it a try. It’s heavy on UK sources and Al Jazeera, which is ok by me but what’s the makeup of your feed derived from? Can you share the method so others could do our own?

Their community link for World News if it saves you a click: !news_world@lemmy.link

I just upvoted you from Memmy on Lemmy, it’s nice!

Hold up - can anyone else read many of the comments in this thread and notice that many seem to be bots, all repeating comments by other users but slightly changed as if by AI and automated?

The commentary in this thread reads as very unnatural. (I agree with the skepticism of Google, it’s not that, it’s the syntax of the thread).

It’s the “unknown unknowns” that are really scary, beyond the short term ability it’s easy to understand now. All the ability extrapolated, layered and multiplied.

Dude what the f, the pandemic was real as heck.

Adding on to the other person saying “to be fair”, you gotta sign a waiver when doing nearly anything with any risk: renting a moped, scuba diving, horseback riding, zip lining, any random thing has risks.

Yes, works well, no issue.

The plot thickens! We will be watching his career with great interest.

Howdy penguin, thank you if can offer some help. Contacting you in Matrix now via username somewhat “cyber” styled

Absolutely, very vigilant. I want nothing from the bad corps. and especially just here. Though I use some things from some of them, try to keep it minimal.

Yeah, but if they flood the fediverse with their P92 Twitter killer they’ll try to own the whole space, overwhelm it and warp it to their own ends.

So they can overwhelm it, when they become the majority of the users they become in charge with the loudest voice. Then they steer it their way or make sure it dies.
