I see... Welp, guess I'll go back to what I was using before!

I literally just got my first portable CD player on Sunday. The sound quality is way better than my super cool DRM-free digital library.

Is this good news or bad news?

I swear it's being trained on Tumblr shitposts. These are too ridiculous to be hallucinations.

Wtf is in that tea‽

You were, but it appears OP is running Windows in a VM on Linux.

Moral of the story: don't read the Daily Heil. On top of mining your data like there's no tomorrow, it's a racist, homophobic, transphobic, fascist, pseudoscientific crock of absolute shit.

Holy mother of god. He'll be wearing a little red armband next!

That's far too good for AI. It has to be photoshopped.

That's hilarious XD

"Know" is a stretch. Plants respond to attack by releasing chemicals (e.g. nettles and grasses), curling or retracting their leaves (e.g. acacia), or by changing their morphology (e.g. holly); but they have no nervous system - let alone a brain - so it's not like you're killing an animal.

That was...oddly wholesome!

Yeah. I heard about this on the radio, and my first thought was, "Oh shit, those suicide rates are going to skyrocket."

My second thought was "Should I throw a bucket of gravy over whoever's responsible, or should I come at them with a cricket bat?"

I was enjoying that as if it were a poem, until I got to the bit that said "Hit share if you agree!". That completely killed the vibe and made me see the post for the AI-generated garbage it is.

NSFW tag, please

You are absolutely correct. The stupidity here, though, is that word got out that Trump uses them, and that has caused a lot of his supporters to start wearing them, whether they need to or not.

It's...hard to argue with that.

I'd recommend FreeTube.

It has its own backend, but it can also use Invidious. As such, you can also run NewLeaf (an Invidious-compatible YouTube scraper based on the NewPipe scraper) in the background and connect to it via FreeTube, and that should work.

Man, it's annoying what characters like Mao and Stalin (as well as America) have done to those words.

Last I heard, the CCP did a bit of social engineering and got a load of TikTokkers to post videos in juggalo makeup in order to retrain their facial recognition software.

I don't recall if it was successful, but it happened.

Holy shit! This was a joke back in 2022, but now it actually is cheaper to buy cocaine and run everywhere‽

Damn, Taco Bell?

Some videos already have basic DRM; mainly music videos. However, yt-dlp, Piped, and NewPipe can play them just fine.

When a platform is as second-to-none as YouTube, people will always find a way to use it the way they want.

I don't wear shorts nearly as much as I used to, and I'm paranoid enough about ticks that I stay away from long grass and verges.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: right when the MAGAts seem to have reached yet another limit of human stupidity, they find another new and unexpected way to be complete and utter fuckwits.

Guess I'd better get around to archiving and deleting my old account.

Truly is the Kool Desktop Environment.

Huh. Never really considered that. Guess I'd better go and rebrand my Mastodon profile...

Omg I want one!

Damn, Lemmy is horny today!

The Daily Mail "Not worth the paper it's printed on!"

It's just the headline for this one. The rest of the article is more serious and less ironic.

The UK government runs on Windows 98 (they've modified it over the years to the point that updating would break everything) and I believe the NHS runs on XP.

Fair point. I'll change it.
