If you happen to be paying for iCloud storage, you could use their hide-my-email service for those rare accounts and have it send to your proton email (apple lets you use an external email to forward to). That’s one of the big benefits of apple’s alias solution; they are all in the icloud.com domain and no website would ever block that.

Reaching A.G.I. could also reshape OpenAI’s business. When that declaration is made, Microsoft loses its rights to use OpenAI’s technology, according to the investment contract it signed with OpenAI. If OpenAI severs its ties to Microsoft, it could consider partnerships with other tech giants.

Already, OpenAI’s for-profit company has used this potential declaration as leverage against Microsoft — warning that if Microsoft will not agree to better terms, the nonprofit might issue this declaration and void their entire agreement, according to a person familiar with the company’s negotiations.

That’s pretty messed up. So whenever OpenAI says they’ve achieved AGI it’s just a gonna be a lie.

Socks are always a good stocking stuffer. Also candy, bathroom products, cards, etc.

This hasn’t happened to me but probably because my computer doesn’t support Windows 11 (it doesn’t support TPM)

Macs also make you put your password in all the time for updates, installs, etc. Laymen seem to use macs just fine

I don’t have an answer to your specific question, but honestly I think learning to subscribe to a community is a really important “tutorial” on using lemmy/reddit. Otherwise they might not understand how to get to each one. You also could just have them look at the local feed so they wouldn’t even need subscriptions.

I personally haven’t used it yet but I believe you can do all this with Matrix (choose your client - probably Element).

Seems to be mainly because Bluesky is just a better user experience.

Changes in terms of service regarding AI (artificial intelligence), changes in the block feature and the presence of so many bot-like ‘impression zombie’ accounts are viewed negatively by Japanese users

But, X is still incredibly important in Japan and Bluesky isnt a serious threat to it culturally right now.

X is still a major, major news source for Japanese users, so it really won’t slow down anytime soon. Newer platforms like Threads or Bluesky really don’t have any meaningful adoption or use for brand marketing in Japan — yet

The japanese philosophy of Kintsugi may help you look at things differently. Impurities are what make us all unique. Nothing in nature is perfect.
