In this economy?

Meanwhile the Play Store is full of scams. This isn’t about safety, it making sure they get a cut from the scam apps.

Until he has early dementia and forgets the lessons learned, but of course he’ll forget he invested anything tomorrow and do it again!

I’m all for holding people personally responsible, but sometimes we gotta help each other out. Also blaming the victim for being scammed is not helpful. Scammers do so many underhand tactics its impossible for any us to keep track of it all alone.

I’m okay with more tools to help us protect people. Maybe instead of needing ADB, you have to boot into save mode, and can enable 3rd party sources from there? This way you can still enable it on the phone while preventing a script or app can’t automate enabling it. Oh and because there’s more scam shit on google play than Fdroid, we’ll need google play to be enabled via the same method too.

Easy fix “Nvidia, no one has the supply your asking for, you can wait for your order just like anyone else” Imagine a company ordering the world supply of paper and being told “yes, we’ll divert all stock straight you and everyone else can have the leftovers for 8x the cost.”

Give us back 7, with the 8.1 back end!

The data they compiled is really cool.

If reading the chart right, the genera with the most artists is opera.

Even if they didn’t have the music files, the analysis on the metadata is insane.

Publicly admitting they are the origin of the torrents is definitely a risky an insane move. I don’t think they want Sony going after them, but also fuck Sony for locking art behind shitty contracts that forces these kind of projects to exist.

I saw/heard an interesting take from a YouTube the other day.

They argued that forks are killing Firefox. Everyone using a fork doesn’t get counted in firefox’s numbers, they don’t see all the Linux user or people turning off AI features because we turned telemetry off. They only see the telemetry of the windows users that use the AI features everyday.

On one hand fuck Firefox’s current direction and the forks are great. On the other hand, maybe we should all use Firefox for some casual stuff just to keep the numbers up??? Keep shopping and banking stuff to the privacy respecting browsers, but the random Wikipedia rabbit holes can happen in Firefox.

And most debian user disable telemetry. Their numbers probably show its all windows folk heavily using AI because its the default.

An “expert” could be anyone who convinces someone else to pay them. The “expert” is probably the one that ran it through the chatbot.

No, that’s reddit. Here we’re all just depressed as we watch all the good things fall apart.

And the fix is a firmware update not a total recall? So its either buggy overcomplicated software or the update tweaked things to reduce the power draw so you got less machine power than what you were advertised.

Which honestly for a washer machine is pretty cool they can fix that sort of issue without the hassle of replacing the big machine, but if only these kinds of major safety issues could be figured out in pre-production.

The first edit was undoing a vandalism that persisted for 5 years. Someone changed the number of floors a building had from 67, to 70.

A friendly reminder to only use Wikipedia as a summary/reference aggregate for serious research.

This is a cool tool for checking these sorts of things, run everything through the LLM to flag errors and go after them like a wack-a-mole game instead of a hidden object game.

Neither of those are 1 word. At least hyphen them to pretend they’re one word.

Could be scraping our answers to train a data set to write their latest buzzfeed article. Reddit is so full of nonsense they need to come here.

You forgot the boarder!!!
