Wow positive supreme court news, wild. Tldr might be that users have a right to post and do stuff on the site, site owners have right to moderate and promote as they see fit, governments aren’t not allowed to stomp on free speech on these platforms or coerce the platforms?
That’s like one thing ML can actually help with XD cute cat
Yeah I’m with you on this, I actually only got it for YouTube music — which really is like “here you can play any song from the history of humanity and also yt video audios.” Well actually what happened is I was using Google Music and then the assholes shut it down and merged it into YT Music which is now roughly on par. I was pissed, but user retained
But I have been enjoying the fact that my subscription goes towards paying the ppl I watch, and I like that I’m unaffected by YT’s server side ads concept (which I’ve always wondered why they don’t do, I think it makes CDNs too hard to optimize while stitching ads directly into videos)
No way, that game terrorized my childhood and is basically just a picture book click adventure
Whenever these corps talk up the danger of AI, all I think is “nice marketing dept bro”
I was into this until I realized that it’s not open source and not even available outside of vscode and GitHub web
That’s a spooky one. From first glance - 500 employees and zero click takeovers of phones? Yikes. Makes me want to not have a phone… Ofc Google/Apple/USA have had this capacity for ages
It’s shit like this that makes me convinced that governments can easily hack into pretty much every system
Facepalm again and again every time my non technical boss asks me if Ive been using genai to speed up my work. No boss, I haven’t, that actually slows me down
I used to think lawns were dumb but then I moved to a place where if you don’t take care of your yard, it’s just overrun with bugs and weeds. Planting too many trees makes things damp and miserable, open areas are key, but that’s where stuff grows. Most plants can’t survive being mowed, but grass loves it, and the birds can pick out insects when it’s low. So now I like lawns, it’s the human version of a meadow. And I don’t see an alternative, other than growing an extra long beard, converting myself in mud, and becoming a druid
Hey don’t shame ppl for normal variance in sex drive. Being horny is not a disease
Sure you don’t “have to” bathe but you’ll have a bad time if you don’t
I don’t agree, in the experience of my friend circle, if you don’t release for a while:
That’s so fucking funny, dude really hates Google. XScreenSaver was released in 1992 fyi, and was once considered the pride and joy of Linux, being way cooler than other OS screensavers, and had a big community of ppl trying to make new trippy ones
No but you see, there’s no reason a newer osx can’t run on their older hardware most of the time. You can install new windows on an old laptop if it has the specs. It’s not like they lost the drivers or whatever. It’s a choice they made, cutting off users from security updates & newer apps & leaving them with a vulnerable device
Really annoys me that Apple has a policy of no more updates after 7 years (or when they change the CPU architecture enough) — that’s hardcore planned obsolescence & I think it made their hardware quality worse over time (in addition to being unrepairable)
Super lame. While I’m ranting, their trade in program is a scam that doesn’t pay out almost ever. And otherwise they will “recycle it for free” making money Im sure
So yeah I’m pretty sure the era of MacBook superiority is over & imma buy a considerably higher spec System 76 laptop instead which comes with a repair bible for pretty much every scenario and is upgradeable
Not really, like I said, bipartisan support. Biden/Blinken just did an emergency act move to send them a ton of funding and weapons. Both parties are at the whims of the military-industrial complex because America is objectively the weapon dealer of the whole world. Even Russia uses American parts in their missiles (despite half assed attempts to prevent that). All of American economics benefits from this situation. And I mean, that’s after we already have been fuckin up the middle east for decades, with countless atrocities
Yeah they can do big genocides. Nah jk, there’s always bipartisan support for that
Sure you can. I mean, not legally ~anywhere, but pay some sketchy dr 25k and make a world-first snuff film. I’m not sure why anyone would want to do this, and I sure don’t think it would be “cool as shit” but you probably would shit yourself. And I suspect that even if you’re real high, it would still be traumatizing for all involved
Functionally the same for most people. A VPN is a virtual LAN so you can access other computers on it. Ex. company’s internal websites from a remote location
Proxy just forwards traffic like a gateway. In both cases the source is hidden. LANs have gateways too
