That’s really not the only possible move
Sure. On the other hand, I’m not sure it’s a good idea to make a new home at a platform with an investment from crypto bros, that will eventually become Twitter/X 2.0. https://universeodon.com/@cryptadamist/113472115447080382
Yet. Mind you, they are VC-backed. Eventually they will enshittify it.
Pop is not gaming oriented, where did you get that?
Firefox implements v3 without the restrictions.
This guy was running a three year old version of Plex with a known (and later fixed RCE), and was working for LastPass.
Theoretically, what would the utility of AI summaries in Google Search if not getting exact information?
What’s the background of the lxd-incus fork? On the project page they just state that it was forked after Canonical took over lxd - but what does that mean, exactly? How did they take over an open project? Was there a technical reason for a fork?
For me, it’s neither the price nor the quality of apps (idgaf, it plays music in the background). The thing that pushes me towards piracy is the same as for movies and TV shows: disappearing content. Because of content licensing deals, every piece of media is temporary on a service. I do rewatch movies from time to time and it’s infuriating if it’s gone (or rather would be, if I was still paying for any streaming service). This is especially true for music. My Spotify favorites list has a huge percentage of greyed out entries (and I’m pretty sure there are things that were outright deleted).
Pretty sure this serves two purposes: to not leave money on the table (as terrible as that sounds, the non-EU market is still milkable for them), and to prepare investor sentiment for the inevitable loss of revenue in a year or so.
I don’t like self checkouts, but not because of that. Probably depends on what chains you go to / where in the world you live, but it was almost always very slow and full of errors for me (most of the time, incorrectly detecting the weight of either side, thus stopping the whole process and making me wait for a human to unlock it). And even if everthing goes well, I have no chance to even reach half the speed that a cashier can.
The one exception is a clothing store that used RFID tags. You put the items in the box and everything is instantly scanned, no mistakes. If it were like that everywhere, I would much prefer it.
This has nothing to do with torrenting apart from a similar sounding word.
If a free tier is offered, why would you be a leech? It’s calculated in their business and free users indirectly bring revenue (the more free users they have, the more they can convert). This concept of being a leech is so alien to me.
Pocket casts. Also, you might be able to export your podcast subscriptions from Google Podcasts in opml format.
Also, avoiding waste entirely is the only sustainable solution. Recycled plastic items are inferior in quality and then end up in the ocean as microplastics.
They will just churn out pictures from midjourney and hire a cheap artist to touch them up and then copyright that.
I think many driverless car companies insist on only using cameras. I guess lidars/radars are expensive.
I’m with you, but probably one good reason to consider Black Mesa “wrong” is the reimagination of Xen. Even though Xen is the weakest part of the original and BM did an excellent job at it.
