  • i don’t know what cuckedberg wants, since the program is for short videos and he already owns instagram anyway

    “Most creators over a million [followers] are going to be making way more money from brand deals or from maybe direct revenue on YouTube or memberships.”

    Facebook will pay $3,000 a month for 15 reels uploaded, which amounts to $200 per video. “That doesn’t even cover production costs for some creators. So it makes no sense for me,” he says.

    ngl it’s funny how stingy meta is with the rewards here. Even microslop had the decency to throw fuckloads of money in their desperate attempt to get a twitch competitor going



  • Not only that but if it wasnt for the US military then Russia would control Ukraine and would be advancing into Europe.

    Ah yes, tell us more about the USA soldiers fighting in Ukraine. Oh wait, there are none. Not a soldier, not a plane, not a ship. Well, not anything manned by any 'murican, but lots of USA arms sold to them, as well as lots of European arms.

    Or China would have already invaded Taiwan.

    The current war against Iran can give China a golden opportunity to invade, since USA can get bogged down significantly in the Middle East again. Go USA!

    Not to mention that Taiwan is strategically important to a lot of other countries due to its “silicon shield”, being the single largest manufacturer of processors in the world. For a number of years now, an invasion could trigger an actual global conflict, even if, for all intents and purposes, such invasion came as another step in a “civil war”.

    Or North Korea would control South Korea.

    Nah, they may have a larger standing army and can definitely destroy Seoul within minutes due to the capital being less than 40km away from the DMZ, but they know that, without big help on their side, they can’t actually “win”. I doubt China would help them, since South Korea is an important market for them.

    The problem here isn’t the US military. It’s the leadership.

    Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Nicaragua, Colombia, Philippines, Iran and other countries would like a word with the “leadership”.

    But the foreign bots brigading lemmy want the US military weaker so those nations can advance their geopolitical goals.

    Oh no, why would people dislike the evil empire that has done a lot of evil and see it crumble? Clearly it must be bots working for the other countries!






  • People don’t want to work. They want to live and pay for shit. Work is the only way for people that weren’t born rich to get money. Well, either that or crimes, but some crimes can be seen as illegal work.

    Most people don’t want to feel useless, so if you cut their access to cheap dopamine (phones with internet, social media) they might seek out some work out of boredom.

    What really sucks is that society expects us to be “specialists” in one thing for the rest of our lives, as if we are fucking ant drones or gears in a complex machine. It’s great for economists and the rich and awful for our individual wellbeing, though some people do enjoy doing the same thing over and over for very long periods of time.
