Since they’re typically masked, I’d like to see gait recognition serve the working class for once.

What did we even do all those ReCAPTCHAs for

I’ll just fork it; we can do better than this.

I’ve got bad news about your phone.

Well yeah, the reason you don’t approve of it matters. If you never approved of it because you never liked the UX, then that’s not a good reason for everyone to stop using it.

When we minimize other reasons to “words you don’t like”, we imply an unimportant personal preference, and not a social choice with consequences for others.

Why not the overseas people?

Why does your customer service need to be on a popular platform? There’s no network effect.

If there’s only one network with the same topology as Starlink, then the USA, China, or Russia will end up making a bunch of rules on everyone else just like Elon does today. Look how the USA abuses centralized internet infrastructure already. Multiple overlapping systems would be wastefully redundant, but reduces the risk of censorship.

We can’t get along and can’t have nice things.

If it’s really that bad we can always fork it.

But now they’re essentially just a bitcoin proxy, they even changed the logo to have a bitcoin on it.

Now that there’s lots of ETFs and stuff, why buy Microstrategy and not just bitcoin?
