Wtf does dell profits have to do with this? Pretty heartless. Imagine your loved one committed suicide and this number was what was the only thing associated with them.

It's also a saturated market because of the low barrier of entry, without an advertising budget you are taking a gamble no matter how good the gameplay is.

Kaiser Permanente reports $2.1B profit, 2.9% operating margin in Q2 2023.

Another cost of doing business...

I still think this is the biggest issue with lemmy right now. There should be a way for communities that are identical across instances that can connect where a post would be cross posted and connected with links to each instance it's connected with.

I never used Twitter actively but used it for announcements and live events happening. Now when I go to a page for updates it shows me (maybe?) the most active tweets from the past. For example, I'll check the MLS page for game delays, the MLS page will have the post of a delay on their site, but if I go to the MLS Twitter it just shows posts from years ago about some goal that is so irrelevant for what I am looking for. I could list many other examples of how useless it has become...

The article mentions "Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment". https://www.alliance4creativity.com/

Looks like a group that takes down piracy websites.

I assume MPA refers to "The Motion Picture Association". They keep changing their name: "The MPA, originally called the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) and later the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA)", then abbreviated to MPA.

Just clarifying the abbreviations since it isn't really explained/articulated in the article.

The Texas Observer is a reputable site. It's one of the last surviving papers in Texas with actual investigative journalists.

It's literally airing it's current season finale this week. It's ongoing and has remained fantastic all the way through.

This also might be the thing the first astronauts warned us about a private space industry. Sure, they can innovate faster and cheaper, but not as safely. There's a 60 minutes interview with musk crying because his astronaut idols didn't see eye to eye with him on privatizing space.

Would be helpful to compare fleet sizes, how many accidents per total flights. Total accidents doesn't mean much without a comparison of either those stats.

A bit misleading but yes, 1000km is what they are talking about. Also the article doesn't address scalability.

Thanks, I was caught off guard when I read 'super majority'. The US HoR is pretty tight race.

I don't feel like that answered the op question. As an example, every general 'gaming' instance that is federated can see each other, so I subscribe to every one I can find, but then I get some posts four times in a row (or more) with varying activity. (Hence the split community point).

I wish communities could be grouped in some way.

Either they go by the wayside or take control of a topic as of now.

Also, what if I'm subscribed to the community that isn't the active one, I have to constantly find new ones to keep up instead of just my feed for that topic?

Edit: part of growing the community has to be ease of access to content, that still seems limited on lemmy, for now

Voyager is very similar to RIF. I'd recommend it highly.
