...most followed user,

Abusing site admin powers to force accounts to follow you really shouldn't count.

That one particularly steamy car scene from Titanic says otherwise. 😏

Honestly, after all the shit YouTube is pulling with their ad systems, I wouldn't mind those old tiny banner strip ads that used to occasionally pop up at the bottom of a video. Compared to the current standard of 3 minutes of unskippable ads interrupting every other video, those little banners are downright unobtrusive.

Facebook spends billions on a fake walled garden "metaverse", and has nothing to show for it.
Meanwhile, Frooxius and his team developed Resonite (and its predecessor Neos), and both of them are far closer to being actual metaverse implementations, simply due to them being able to speak HTTP/Websocket/OSC to external user applications.

Monkrus is GenP, but prepackaged into the installer, if I'm remembering the GenP subreddit wiki correctly.

Yep, GenP is what I used for Substance Painter.

There doesn't appear to be a lemmy community for it yet, but the old subreddit is still active.

Definitely fake. I've worked in IT, and I know Okta's offerings. They do multi-factor and SSO stuff, basically password management stuff on steroids along with any regulatory compliance checklist stuff.

They do not rent out cloud infrastructure for other companies to use.

Do you have the onion link for this site? I got this onion URL from both wikipedia and a z-library subreddit wiki, but I'd like some independent verification first.

Then again, I could just spool up a disposable email and use that for a test account.

Ehh, I'd say he was more boringly safe, especially for a lot of his in-country policy stuff.

And that's a good thing. The presidency is not meant to be glorious, exciting, or full of media magnet bombshells. Those generally mean that something has gone wrong.

To quote my parents whenever I was being disciplined for something immature, "Act your age, not your shoe size."

According to the article, Twitter is also charging $42,000 minimum for enterprise access. That's over $500k per year. If I was a Nintendo employee, I would not only cut that expense, but also use it as leverage for a massive end of year bonus.

I doubt that for two reasons:

  • There's no non-admin way for an app to discern if it's a firewall block, or a legitimate no-internet situation (i.e. didn't purchase in-flight WiFi). It would also look really bad PR-wise if a company banned customers just because their internet went down or was otherwise spotty.

  • How would they even know? Their software can't tattle on me if it's been blocked from establishing a connection.
