Agreed, regardless of what this is there’s a 100% chance that it’s a profit scheme and has nothing to do with building anything practical for anyone
The irony of this comment is you can find the cooking show but not Westworld on HBO lol
sweet has POS been reclaimed?
Science x Capitalism
I don’t think they’re saying that method would yield 100% clean data but it would give you all the “necessary” data with the absolute bare minimum storage requirement. At some point people will log into their email and for most people if you have their email password you have the password they use for everything
I’m not a power user but it’s way better than Plex imo. The personal media management features are on par with plex without all the bullshit ads / FAST services being shoved down your throat. To me it feels like Plex got too popular and the owners realized that a) they could make a shitload of money off of their existing userbase and b) the more they gear the app around FAST crap the more they can act like it’s used for legitimate reasons and not just piracy
Execs are no doubt panicking because the infinite growth they’ve promised as a result of their 2020 finances is starting to look unlikely and they need excuses to cut down on employees
The buzzword stablecoin sort of lost its luster when all of those stablecoins crashed at the same time as the unstable ones lol
The irony of tagging and asking a bot this lol
It was a vertical drop ride at the nearby Icon Park and the investigstion found that the harness had been improperly modified by the park at some point to theoretically accommodate large people in such a way that if a big enough person sat there it would fail to lock without any alert or warning; the scary thing is that it was probably like that for a long time. One thing the major Orlando parks have going for them is extremely tight safety standards, these side parks always seem like low budget attempts to prey on people who can’t afford Disney lol
Ya I appreciate the gesture but if this truly is the “biggest” robocall racket I have to imagine a 300M fine is a dropping the bucket
“Oh boy the line went up that must mean I’m on the winning team!”
The problem is that without an effective way to ID bot content then stats like this could be covering up the real trends in human users, particularly in any stat that purports to measure all lemmy instances since we already know there are instances out there filled with thousands of bot users
How many people do you think are on lemmy compared to threads lol
It was illegal, and don’t call me surly.
This is exactly something an engineer who works at Google would want to work on, finding new ways to enrich Google is literally their job and there would be great personal benefit from coming up with the best way to implement this DRM crap for profit
I’m sure they’ve been spending the last week thinking of a way to recap this without showing the full thing, such as just focusing on specific sections instead of showing a time-lapse of the the entire canvas. Similarly I’d be surprised if they released the pixel placement data set this time without major edits
Even their “correct” functionality is sketchy AF, the average user would still have no idea what that URL tag meant and thus would not be making the informed choice the article implies they would be making
