  • That’s true in most cases, but i’ve had a lot more success posting stuff to my furry-specific Mastodon instance than posting hte same thing to generic Twitter and Bluesky. So there’s something to the ability to have a specific audience.

    But i genuinely have an issue when i go to upvote or reply and it tells me that i’m not logged in, and that’s when i find out that i’ve accidentally left my instance and am not logged in anymore. That kind of thing shouldn’t happen at all, it shouldn’t be this easy to accidentally land in a different instance.



  • According to the article, it’s done for market research, i.e. finding out who buys what, which is a thing businesses like to know. But also apparently it allows the machine to generate “AI-powered product recommendations”, which i guess means it tailors reccomendations to each user? Which it can do because it has a touch screen, and the touch screen itself already strikes me as full of shit.

    That’s what the article says this machine in particular does; but yes, it could totally change the price on you depending on what you look like, and all other kinds of deeply shady things. You can count on a private company to do that kind of thing and then use their favorite argument: it’s technically legal.
