Oh that setting is super easy to change, just go to run, type in regedit, expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE then just scroll until you find CLSID-73838-abf83-c758d57-87a90ba, set the value to zero and reboot!

My company blames me when people fill out forms with junk data just to get to what was already a public link, then I have to go in the CRM every morning and delete a dozen “your moms” and “nunyas”.
So now they’re just charging people for what they were already doing anyway.
Isn’t that supposedly the plan?
I check Lemmy multiple times per day now!
But isn’t it true that mastodon users can follow Lemmy communities as if the community was a virtual user? So in a sense you can view Lemmy through Fedilab but you have to be logged in thru mastodon or pixelfed?
Even better, I do not boil I run though and store in a Brita pitcher that should have had a filter change six months ago!
My moment with T-Mobile was when I got a Pixel and needed the new smaller SIM size and they wanted to charge me. I was like okay well if you won’t give me the SIM then I can’t pay you for service, and that was that.
They come with a name from the shelter and they tell us we’re not allowed to change it (even though they did!) so we always just kept whatever the shelter picked
I’ve used it for a few years and I like it, I pay once per year and it’s the same T-Mobile service. There’s no roaming though so I always get a local esim when I travel abroad. Kind of iffed T-Mobile just bought them though. They say oh we’re actually keeping prices the same and giving you more data (as mint has traditionally done every other year) but I have a feeling this will be the last data increase we’ll ever see. And also some people complain about deprioritization but as a former T-Mobile customer I can tell you it’s the same places like busy malls or stadiums where direct T-Mobile customers aren’t having a good time either.
Sort of, you don’t have to subscribe to their communities or follow users from Meta. We don’t want to talk with Facebook users, that’s not why we’re here. There isn’t a single person on Facebook who would feel disrupted if they suddenly didn’t see my content anymore, either.
And really it’s nonsense. If we wanted to be on Facebook then we already would be. Meta coming in and telling everyone how to run their instances because a Facebook user might see their content, won’t bode well.
A popup that tells me to enter my email but won’t let me just enter dave@mailinator.com and continue reading is effectively a paywall.
Yep they’ll be a good actor until they’re the biggest instance and they’ll try to turn the fediverse into whatever verse they’re feeling like that week and shove it down our throats. We’ll end up right back here in 3 years of we choose as a community to federate (i.e. give free content) to Meta.
Exactly, they might play along in the beginning, even stretch it by putting all the non-Meta conversations in green text. But once their instance becomes the largest one, they’ll start making it difficult for everyone else.
Your first mistake is setting a minimum expectation for a Meta product. They’ve not promised it will do any of that and they already have you thinking it will based on nothing but rumor.
If they do it better without contributing the improvements back to the standard then that’s something to complain about. Because then all they’re doing is a different, better, proprietary standard and they never really had any intention of embracing an open source project.
That’s exactly it and there’s no reason to pretend otherwise. Meta is a financial instrument to turn money into more money. The only reason Meta would engage with any third party is to make their commercial products more attractive to advertisers. Play with Meta and before you know if they’ll be writing all the rules about how you’re allowed to run your instance.
“and is actually good” it won’t be actually good because with Meta the users are always going to be the product. What you are thinking is exactly what they want to do. Build the best looking app first so everybody installs it, then they’re in a position to start making the calls about the future of the fediverse.
Somebody tried selling me a locked phone on eBay despite listing it as unlocked. The seller refused to be helpful so I filed a claim with eBay, waited the 10 days, eBay sided with me, got a refund and shipped the phone back, waited for the refund to process, then spent $100 more to buy the same device from Amazon.
