lol, except the high prices in your country provide welfare and health benefits to everyone, a safety net for less privileged. High prices in US allow billionaires to buy their 4th yacht

I think you can say the same for nearly all social platforms in the new age of internet. “influencers” generate “content” for their “followers”

Exactly what actual politicians do!

Illegal content will still be illegal, no one is promoting criminal activities in this talk. Privacy and safety do not have to be mutually exclusive.

No, this line of thinking is wrong, I wish people would stop saying this. Voting with your wallet never works when 1% has >50% of wealth. It’s easier for 5% of people (wealthy, top execs) to agree on milking the rest than 95% of people to agree on boycotting a certain brand. That’s why we have regulations, we wouldn’t need them if “voting with wallets” actually worked.

Free market capitalism got us to this point, it cannot take us out of this.

When you’re marrying someone you’re usually not like “lets try this and see where it goes” (that’s called dating), you’re more like “till death do us part” so yes, divorce is failure more often than not. Ending a relationship, not so much

I guess if he disabled auto upload captures to Xbox live he wouldn’t have been banned. Microsoft wouldn’t dare ban players for captures they only keep locally.

Still this is a huge fuckup from Microsoft, I hope they reverse this.

Free market is the most effective way of allocating resources

Imo its fine if they open source it when they decide to end support. The fact that app has a pristine privacy record is good enough

Since you’re on iOS you might as well use the default app. It’s not FOSS but still, better than 3rd party clients in privacy sense.

How did irc resolve this issue?

I’m also against proprietary systems but is there an open alternative?

I’m pretty salty its not available in EU

Overcooked may not have profanity but it certainly cultivates it

It’s mentioned in the article

I’m very interested in your retention! Are you able to actually learn stuff?

Do you have written sources for these? I’d like to educate myself but I can’t stand YouTube videos.

Still windows

You mean well and I wish you were right, but capitalism proves you wrong time and time again. Remember when everyone cancelled their Netflix subscriptions and the company went bankrupt because they disallowed account sharing? Yeah, that was the sentiment on all social media.

My free Dropbox account has 23GB of storage. They did this kind of stuff when starting out.

You are wrong, IRC specification says servers connect to each other to form IRC network, and a channel can be a distributed channel, which is known to all servers on the IRC network

See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1459#section-1.3

Tons but none of them are good, sadly. Low quality cash grabs

Almost always executive compensation is partly stock. That doesn’t change the fact that he was compensated that much. You can’t say Elon Musk isn’t worth 200b$ because it’s not liquid.

So… stadia?

I paid €45 and played for 35 hours. Wanted to play more but waited for the new season, and then just didn’t get to it. I still want to play it though, but i wish i waited for it to come to game pass. When they said “not soon” i didn’t expect it to arrive in 2024.

You should add degoogling for android phones. Unless degoogled, Android phones are worse than iOS.

Better than not acknowledging imo

I can’t bring myself to spend 200$ on it, no matter how many praises I read. It doesn’t matter that they’re including 20 games, they’re all pretty short and switch lite costs 200$. I believe I’d buy one around 100$, if I ever see a 2nd hand for that price

Those phrases are not common anymore but once was very common, among the corpus the llm is trained on (mid 20th century books)

Whole Wall Street is built upon this “estimation” idea. No reason to nitpick about it when it comes to executive compensation.

You need to call your isp and request a static ip. Most probably they’ll say its extra but usually around $5. If they say they don’t give static ips to individuals you can request an ipv4 dynamic address and use a ddns. ipv6 only networks also result similarly to double nat

Was going to tell you that she didn’t die in a model 3 but you found out yourself!

My stack runs on pi4, much less than 12$

Privacy policies of 3rd party apps vs apple’s.

After some time all the caves are the same though…

That’s a problem with most new technology, isn’t it? Sure its not ideal but also not a dealbreaker, unlike the tv showing ads or sharing my usage data with others

I choose Apple because its the lesser evil. Going fairphone/postmarketos (or degoogled android) is too much trouble and I’m not that idealistic. I respect those who do, though.

Kudos to the guy for doing stuff + it being FOSS, but I wouldn’t call him “great at designing social platforms”. Pixelfed is fediverse instagram, loops is fediverse tiktok

You can use smart tvs as dumb screens though, just don’t connect it to internet. Is there a similar way for Evs?
