Looking at CCPA deletion requests https://privacy.ca.gov/tips/submit-a-privacy-request/

The way it’s worded on that page, Businesses must comply with requests within 45 days. But if the government accesses the data as a sub processor, must they comply?

My guess would unfortunately be no.

Interesting, do you know where I can buy a set of trained ears? - Audiophiles, probably.

PR Newswire, Reuters, Associated Press tend to be the most straight forward sources to get news with minimum editorial content added.

They work at Disney +.

Unfortunately the DevOps world has largely left Ligma based services behind. Good luck finding someone with under 15 years in the industry familiar with it.

Are you purchasing ad space through Meta or Apple in the no fee scenario?

Unable to reproduce on iOS Safari.

Typically the CPU and motherboard are both tied to a specific generation of RAM, which is keyed and traced differently on the motherboard for DDR 4 vs 5.

For example the current AMD socket AM5 requires DDR 5. You’d have to go back to AM4 Ryzen 5000 series for DDR 4 support.

The 64GB kit I purchased Aug 2024 for $195 is now listing for $540

The people making the big bucks in Silicon Valley are often the people really good at understanding psychology and manipulating people’s behavior.

I honestly would have never thought of this either. I’m one of those traditional losers who thinks providing a good value/service at a sustainable margin is a good way to run a business.

Also NAL and different sizes of platforms have different obligations. Could be wrong that the scenario I described applies to Lemmy.

I’m ignoring the US politics for a moment…

If I flag a comment on Lemmy for abuse, breaking community rules, or other reasons, do you y’all think I am individually owed a response from the mod team on whether the content stays approved, or was removed, that includes the specific criteria behind the decision?

That’s what the DSA requires among many other requirements.

I rent through Costco and try to pick Alamo when possible. Avis is decent but they often share a line with Budget which can take forever.

I’m not a loyalty member of any brand for reference.

This was the late 2000s but knew a person actively working on long range ballistic missile interception. Asked, “how does it work? Is it like a shotgun or explosion where you explode when closing in on the other missile?”

Turns out the most reliable method was kinetic. A pencil hitting a pencil on the order of kilometers a second making contact way up in the atmosphere.

My limited understanding is this was nowhere near 100% reliable at the time, but there were successes. Some real crazy shit when you think about it.

In the US cops have been known to deploy ‘Stingray’ devices that spoof a cell tower and create a record of every phone in the area. In the context of a protests, these records could be used to determine who attend multiple events, who the likely organizers are, etc to create lists of undesirable people who may receive special attention from law enforcement.

More specifically, if shit goes down at a protest there is digital record of your attendance. It’s very easy to go from a peaceful protester to a criminal in the eyes of the government.

Sure but this looks like Microsoft complying with sanctions. I was unaware sanctions were applied to the ICC, which is complete nonsense.

Yeah it’s arguable that Steam is a monopoly but somehow billion dollar publishers can’t create a store to sell their own products without fucking it up with annoying bullshit. Pay the 30% to protect you from yourselves.

Google has been kicking the can on ending third party cookie support for years. Chrome has such a large market share that whatever they decide to do has a huge impact on the ability to monetize content with ads.

There’s no clear direct replacement for identifying users for ad targeting outside of 3pty cookies. Lots of competing ‘privacy preserving frameworks’ but they all need buy in from many players at scale to be effective.
