Finally. Single click to open a file/directory is the first feature that I disable on a fresh system.

My company laid off a few very efficient workers, who sacrificed a lot of time and mental health for the company, because people working remotely in India are cheaper.

It's easy to talk about integrity when you're not in that position.

How can they prove that not some abstract public data has been used to train algorithms, but their particular intellectual property?

Proton Pass has a similar feature, I love it. But Spotify had banned my account and asked me to email them from the alias to unlock it, which is not possible. So you should be careful with that. A lot of companies employ anti-privacy practices.

Because you can easily park like this "|||" and not like this "|/|". Also, it's much easier to leave safely.

The usual "we made it big with one feature, now let's add features that all other social media have".

You're paying for your privacy. Also, a copy of a game or a movie is not a service.

AI that is parsing Lemmy: "Noted."

If I were you, I'd stop trying to explain one thing that I'm struggling to explain using the other thing I'm struggling to explain as an analogy.

Ultimately, not enough people had joined the protest, so it didn't have enough economical power.

Codeberg is a collaboration platform providing Git hosting and services for free and open source software, content and projects. Codeberg is maintained by the non-profit organization Codeberg e.V., based in Berlin, Germany. For them, supporting the commons comes first. They are more than just Git hosting: their community is comprised of like-minded developers, artists, academics, hobbyists and professionals. No tracking. No third-party cookies. No profiteering. Everything runs on servers that they control. Your data is not for sale.

Because no other OS or DE that I use does that and it's not convenient to jump from one to another. As of the wear, I think it's marginal. My main file manager is mc anyway.

I didn't say that I hate them. I said that I don't like them. Let's avoid using these words interchangeably.

The issue with these communities is that they recycle the same old material. You mostly see reposts and blatantly bad jokes. Sometimes I feel as though people feel the need to create a meme, but they don't have any idea what it should be about. It's like trying to write a book or song for the sake of writing one. Nothing good comes out of it without a creative idea.

When a new template becomes popular, people recreate old jokes with it, because even templates are not original anymore. There's even a meme about this from Scooby-Doo, where the guy reveals that the monster (new template) is actually some guy they already knew (old template).

Mostly, such communities pollute the feed with unoriginal and unfunny content that doesn't bring any value to me.

I'm surprised they haven't registered trademarks for GPTs 5..100.

They say that Facebook spies on us and knows everything about us, but all I see on my feed is memes. I don't like them. Here on Lemmy I block every meme community I see!

.ml doesn’t allow new sign ups.

It does, however one must know what is six minus two to get the approval.

I support the sentiment, but today everything is a service that wants your money, this resource is finite. And when it comes to YouTube, it's not even about whether you like it or not: YouTube is a monopolist.

People online also say it’s used to detect which controller is in use.

I don't get it. Any modern game can detect when you connect or disconnect a controller on the fly, in the actual game.

Also it was very stupid, ineffective and had allies.

Sounds like Patreon for music.

not gonna fix bugs for free for someone leeching off our stack to build a commercial product

I don't know, this sounds like there's some history between developers and the reporter. If not, then somebody indeed had enough.

I haven't seen anything from lemmynsfw, so - zero. Though I don't spend a lot of time beyond my subscriptions and local feed.

At the end I got a list of 29 distros, this is terrible. A user who is willing to go through all pros and cons and is able to compare them doesn't need this website to choose a distro.

Where's lemm.ee located physically?

I wouldn’t generally consider my IP to username to be public.

Are they talking about your IP address or the service's? Does ActivityPub even share the user's IP address with other nodes in the network? That'd be crazy, so I assume that it doesn't. Then Meta can't find out your IP address.

Can't ctrl+f a video. People don't often have good presenting skills, talk slowly or with defects. Text is much easier to navigate, faster to read.

I wouldn't trust a website that wants your username and password.

The biggest, most significant reveal at this stage of development is that Pixelfed’s groups feature will be launching with compatibility for both Lemmy and Kbin, officially connecting Pixelfed to the rest of the “threadiverse” that the other two platforms occupy.

From my understanding, we'll be able to see Pixelfed groups on Lemmy just like any other community and follow them. There could be a group/community, where people publish photos of cats, their art, urban photography, etc.

1. Stop caring about what other people think about Apple.

2. Start using paragraphs.

3. Learn how to express your thoughts in a short and clear manner.

I think that India will be a major factor and there are many Java developers. C-level guys don't care about programming languages, they do care about cheap labor. So I don't think that Java is going to wither away anytime soon, at least on a global scale.

Making your own is actually bad for privacy. You can find out what communities I subscribe to by going to my instance and checking what communities there are.

Also, you own the domain and server. That's why I decided against setting up my own instance.

From their FAQ:

Pre-installed means that the game is already installed for you, so you don’t have to. This means all you need to do is download the .zip file, extract it, and run the game. That’s it! Easy, right?

Our default sort converts everything to string, then sorts by UTF-16 code. So yes, [1, 10, 3] is sorted and you are going to live with it.

I'm not sure whether this is satire or not.

You can’t even log into your account if you’re banned, how are you supposed to appeal?

Write an email, go to their Matrix or Discrod server. Try to reason with them and if you fail, well, maybe you shouldn't be on that instance due to different views on what is right and what is wrong. With reddit you can't jump to another reddit instance which is a disadvantage.

I wouldn't put the manual review of thousands of application into the "less annoyances" box.

I am so glad you can just avoid an instance moderated by clowns and enjoy the full experience with the fediverse.

Yes, a family plan makes it cheaper. You won't see any ads on your devices, from your TV to your PC, and you can listen to YouTube videos even when your phone is locked. It also includes YouTube Music. It's a great deal, and I'm not sure why some people don't see it that way. Sure, you could get a different YouTube client for your phone, install an ad blocker on your PC, block ads on your router to get rid them on your smart TV, and listen to music on Spotify for free. But the value of a good service is that you pay a reasonable amount of money and get all these features without any additional work on your part.

My forum was blocked at my work, it had roughly 20 active users.

This can happen to any service, including lemmy.world you're using.
