Call me sexist but that guy has really girly handwriting

It’s infuriating how successful the oil companies have been at turning solar vs oil into a fucking culture war.

There’s only about eight billion humans in existence. 3.56B daily active users is as close to saturated as you can get.

if legit users fail Google’s captcha, then site owners will stop using Google for captcha

for a moment I thought you meant just do [enable backups]

I wonder if there’s a way of creating a file that doesn’t actually exist on disk but if Onedrive tries to read it it outputs 5Gb of random binary?

Windows 11 on my media PC every time I boot now asks me if I want to enable backups. So I say no. Ok whatever, corporate cunts are gonna keep trying to sell me stuff.

But then it gives me another screen ramping up the hard sell and telling me how important it is I enable sending all my data to them. There’s only one button on the screen that’s styled like a button, to refuse you have to click a text link. And I’ve already said no to them dozens of times already, including once three seconds ago.

It’s like they’re actively campaigning to get me to switch to Linux.

Wow there’s a lot of people in this thread defending the LLM. “They just didn’t set it up right” gtfo

Yeah I mean this isn’t a Face Turn on his part, he’s a bigoted fascist who’s pissed off that Trump’s bigoted fascism has its list of targets in a slightly different order to his

I’m not optimistic on this one, since one of the features of huge corporations is that the institutional shareholders that own them appoint the person they think will deliver the best YoY growth and Earnings Per Share. For a company that’s mostly saturated its market, this means enshittification and thumbscrew-tightening on its existing customers.

An AI trained on Facebook comments would be stupider than an AI trained on nothing at all

One thing I don’t think has got enough attention is the fact that it does a fetch from Truth Social as well, which means Trump personally gets at least some indirect data on the app’s users on a server that isn’t even slightly controlled or contracted by the government.

Remember CDs? Actually owning stuff?

I went back to Winamp last year and don’t regret it at all.

The irony is that I typed JIRA in lowercase and my phone autocorrected it to JIRA

I’m amazed they had 1600 employees to begin with. I guess it takes a lot of resources to make something suck as hard as JIRA

Literally my entire point was that people are offering some strong opinions without having read the complaint, and here you are demonstrating exactly that.

As a general rule of thumb if something sounds stupid then it’s probably been reported badly with some key information missing. I’m betting the music industry press reporting will be very different from that of a site called “gamesindustry.biz”.

My suggestion is that probably their lawyers have examined the case in rather more detail than the armchair lawyers on here pontificating based on an eight-sentence summary. Incidentally, PRS are a 175,000-member artists’ rights collective that very often represent a significant portion of individual artists’ incomes, they’re not some sort of grubby billionaire-owned patent troll.

For the benefit of those here suggesting this is a spurious or vexatious lawsuit: in the UK, it’s standard for a plaintiff to be forced to pay all the respondent’s legal fees if they lose.

It’s a thread about comparing Signal to Telegram of all things

The relevance is that it’s not some unaligned security professional talking in the article, it’s literally the guy that runs Signal having a pop at his competition.
