It really feels like drug users’ demand for drugs that don’t kill them would create a market for artisanal drugs, like with the alcohol industry.
If I had any interest in hard drugs, I would be terrified to use them now. I know we’re dealing with addicts who aren’t making good decisions, but aren’t there wealthy coke fiends? How can anyone snort lines at a party if they don’t know if it has all this lethal shit in it?
Someone answered this for me. It’s just that it’s open source. If that matters to you, there you go.
Ah, gotcha. Makes sense.
Is there anything about Aegis that makes it better than Authy? Just looking at the page for Aegis, I’m not seeing a lot of difference. And it being Android only limits it.
Not only that but reddit isn’t allowing you to make new accounts as of today, without having a Gmail account first.
What? So you can’t use any other email provider but Google to sign up for a Reddit account?
EDIT: I actually don’t think this is correct. I just went to the sign up page and it does have buttons to create an account using Google or Apple OAuth (I assume) but there is a field under those two buttons for just any email. Put in my Outlook.com email and it accepted it and went to the next page where I could create my user name and password.
That’s a principled stance.
It has definitely become more noticeable on Reddit that huge numbers of either compromised or sold accounts are being used by bots to sell shit. They are in basically every thread now, getting upvoted to appear more legit until someone calls them out and they delete their content.
Reddit is definitely on the way down. And a decent amount along the way. But unfortunately, it still is the best option for a modern day message board. I want to use Lemmy more, but there just isn’t enough content being posted by enough people.
The break down of the content isn’t my biggest issue. The problem is that there just isn’t enough content.
Thankfully some mobile apps besides the official still work and Old Reddit still works on desktop.
Via context clues I think this means conversations that have a high likelyhood of buying something.
Like a thread asking for a phone recommendation is likely going to end in a sale. But it’s written by a PR drone and thus doesn’t look like English.
If Roku actually does this I would definitely never use them again. Completely asinine behavior. Especially because most people aren’t even using stand alone boxes with their smart TVs.
To be fair, this is just a patent, not Roku saying they will do this. But if they do, then absolutely.
What blows my mind is that the only black councilmember forgave him and basically torpedoed a censure of him.
Would really like to pick his brain to see what he was thinking at that moment considering the guy essentially admitted he was still a member of that white supremist group.
Proving all of it is authentic would be difficult, but I don’t think that is necessary. It isn’t really disputed that reddit is the largest repository of human generated content currently. It was one of the reasons the whole reddit protest thing was even as big as it was, because when the reddit results left Google, searching for real information from people became a lot harder
Not a smart move, right before the IPO.
Really? I think the opposite. He said this in a profoundly stupid way, but what he is saying is that reddit is still the largest collection of human generated content. And not just the sanitized stuff you post on Facebook or LinkedIn, but your actual political opinions, your fears, your hobbies, the totally real secrets you posted to the weekly “What is your darkest secret” AskReddit post, your porn preferences, etc. And that is likely very valuable.
Compassion is definitely needed here the user shouldn’t be blamed.
But it is also true that essentially every smart TV is garbage. Never connect them to the internet or use their built in software. Something like an Apple TV will be faster, provide a better experience and be easier to use than any smart TV. Same with something like the nVidia Shield.
What it was the end of was talentless painters who were just copying what they saw. Painting stopped being for service and started being for art. That is where software development is going.
I think a better way of saying this are people who were just doing it for a job, not because of a lot of talent or passion for painting.
But doing something just because it is a job is what a lot of people have to do to survive. Not everyone can have a profession that they love and have a passion for.
That’s where the problem comes in when it comes to these generative AI.
The people who buy something like this (hopefully) have enough money where $3,500 doesn’t matter or are developers who want to get in early on something that might be big in a few versions.
Everyone else should avoid.
This is nothing new. Buying digital and streaming only versions of media just means you are licensing it. If you care, either break the DRM and reencode, or just pirate it directly.
Probably. Whatever standard governs side by side video likely isn’t supported in Safari.
It also feels like their insistence is doing nothing but hurting them. The average consumer who doesn’t know the difference between a local account and a Microsoft account won’t know or care about MS doing this.
But the users who do have a preference and do want a local account are just going to be irritated at it and give them bad press. They’ll eventually figure out how to make a local account anyway and it may be the push they need to migrate off of Windows.
