Hey Masto, I can't even remember the name of the video platform in the fedi because last I looked it was not done baking.

A lot of people on TikTok, and I mean a lot are saying they'll leave if Meta buys TikTok.

Prime opportunity. Helloooo.

But I know it's not done baking enough to onload all those people from TikTok.

Shame really.

Wonder where they'll end up.

Oh and Meta WILL be co-owner with TikTok if it's not already. I think it is already.

When creators upload a video now, if they have the messenger app on their phone, it opens.

And on Facebook & Instagram, you can now add your TikTok account.

@elfin they solved the problem of downtime. No refunds to porn subscribers for 2min 36sec downtime.

TikTok openly went down under the guise of a ban.

Then voila! Back up again.

Enough time to "update" with new software!

Fucking brilliant

Except you but you were tagged.

Bitches. Arson is illegal.

Blowing cities up somewhat more so.

No I'm not kidding.

@juliewebgirl

A foreign company is going to be appropriated (read: stolen) for why?

If I owned TikTok I'd tell America to fuck up a rope and drop the continent. Instead, they are going to capitulate. The fuck?

Get a fucking grip assholes. You lost the fight before it started.

This is a hostile takeover of a company from a foreign entity. There is no Legal International Law that describes this. And it's bullshit. Anyone my age that's got two brain cells to rub together can see it.

@elfin

For why?

THEIR ALGORITHM

Also, I never see anyone talk about their marketplace...

They make Amazon look like the joke that they are. Returns are done immediately. No questions asked. Makers have made huge amounts of money. It's not just videos, though I watched more wildfire videos than all of YouTube.

@juliewebgirl

They aren't Makers and you know I have issues with this recently.

(I wanna see someone in Redmond with a 2x4) ... I'm patient before I get ... aggressive. I have time.

That person is a little bitch with delusions of adequacy... most of the East Side.

You know I'm in Fight Mode now, ja? Imma crush the little duck and by extension anyone that might employ the twot.

I was happily retired.

Couldn't care less.

Centralized media has been antithema to me since 1995.

Platforms are junk.

I literally don't care about folks that use that crap. In fact, I'll cheerfully fuck their day over, because they fuck my day over. Thirty years of end users sucking dick... because Why? Sheep herd.

When I moved a streaming porn company from a data center from Santa Clara to San Francisco (at 0300) my DNS transition was three minutes. The owners paid out $300k to users that couldn't see sec for that time. $5/month, the propriators tossed $150k in "oops" in five minutes.

My bonus was exceptional.

Lesson learned: email servers die at night, porn servers get maintenance early afternoon.

In the 80s we'd call this a Hostile Takeover ... only Magical Law Thinking not leverage against Stock.

This is a disease of:

Finances.

International Law.

So I could have stolen Sony/Ericson phones (good option for the industry, me, that)

Embrace, extinguish.

This is legal, monetary, fucking insanity.

@juliewebgirl

when we met you wanted an Open Source platform that was basically YouTube.

The only semi viable option was the worst fucking PHP code I've ever seen. That was twelve years ago. I worked on Horde which is my second worst PHP experience (and I learned it in two weeks).

Bad.

Pixel is really nice. Just saying.

Horde. Fuck.

IceMelt went through mergers and it was blah@foo so he wanted me to build a base. Fucking redhead server that was EOL... lemme think.... ah Cobalt Servers. Fucking junk.

Taught myself PHP in two weeks to bring that crap up. Simple LAMP now, was emerging at the time.

Horde. So ew. I have several hundred lines of code in that project. twitch

However, that being said: I invented cloud storage, don't think much of it these days. Don't care anymore.

UCLA was using Horde for students when I was there seven years ago on the TLS update (Julie let me go to SoCal to think and get space to change crypto, read CertBot integration).

Tough year.
