Or serve a gzip bomb (is that possible?)

If I understand right that means link previews are requested every single time an user sees it? The instance should request it once a week, cache it and serve that to users

The average people don’t know the concept of browser. I saw people using Google search (the app) as a browser. I saw people trying to login in their webmail using Google search (the app), then in order to see what photo they wanted to upload they went back to home by closing the WebView, watching the photo, then using again the Google search app to login in their webmail. Extremely infuriating, I wanted to die.

Yes but let’s remember everyone that Apple did their “best” in this. If a developer makes a browser that doesn’t use WebKit, then can publish that version only in Europe. For the rest of the world it’s still forced to publish the usual “Safari skin”. Basically doubling the work and the monetary cost of developing a browser.

Resisting? It was a clear strategy: use VC money to give away something for free then charge/monetize to give back those investors all the money, with interests

TIL that my country has bended over the copyright trolls and blocked Archive.is, need a VPN to view…

Probably this might be related to why tencent removed cloud backups from WeChat. It used to be like telegram, when you login it loaded all the previous messages, now when you login using the sms confirmation code you need to ask (with a different chat app!) three friends to send you a session specific passcode and then all the previous chat history is wiped clean.

(It was a problem to login back to me as I didn’t have three friends)

Main problems are:

1. Link rot

2. Sneakily inserted sponsored links

Why would someone pay to train a LLM on Tumblr???

At least Google paying for reddit content, would have something useful mixed with all the memes.

But Tumblr would definitely poison the results

I honestly couldn’t see how they could offer so much for free

We just saw that it wasn’t profitable and the business plan was to find an exit strategy via acquisition

There’s still the feature that allows you to print a PDF even if the print permission is denied?

I’m really curious about the amount of money exchanged. It must have been an enormous amount in order to do a “I’d even sell my mom for that” and don’t feel dirty

My supermarket does this: if you go shopping with public transport, then you can ask the cashier to have someone deliver the just purchased groceries to your house for 5 euro

The problem is people got the idea that they need a 3 ton truck to do grocery shopping

Of course not. They install Facebook that has one ad every two posts, ads in WhatsApp is nothing

They don’t seem good at all, long and weird

I don’t know what text the LLM sniffed, but those aren’t average at all

English word + four numbers

Maybe you’re confusing with lemmygrad?

I’d like to read more on this, if true
