Privacy? I’m sure that Google tried so hard to monetize it and after so many years they didn’t found a way, couldn’t use it for ai training too, so they decided to turn it off and save millions in database costs.

They still exfiltrate user movements for improving Google maps, it’s just that they don’t need to keep them indefinitely or for years or maintain a nice interface for that

It feeds from YouTube music so you’d be lucky if you can get the clean music version and not the videoclip version with gunshots, cars speeding and people talking over it

Seeing how Trump has a talent to choose the absolute worst for a specific job, I hope they manage to get shell access and delete the database and its only backup that was accidentally stored in the same server with the same credentials

He personally ordered to target civilians, bomb hospitals and schools, why would be bothered by this?

I’m guessing the dark patterns that let people accidentally turn on backups, fill their storage, then have their Gmail account hostage of a paid subscription are still there

That wavelet suggestion must have been sponsored. There’s no way otherwise

Wow that seems awesome!

I could finally purge windows from my htpc without my SO complaining about “what happened to this windows why it is weird, I’m hating it” even though I tried to give the windows look and feel to kde

First I install that on windows with taskbar hidden, then one day when the SO gets used to this launcher instead of explorer.exe, I could replace the os

If you want to try again with Hugo, you can self host forgejo and let it build Hugo on your server when you commit, then serve that HTML

instructed the IDF to show the passengers of the flotilla a video of the horrors of the October 7

This doesn’t remotely justify to do 1000x the same horrors over unrelated innocent people

“supported” because too many developers (especially apple) only target the latest and greatest

Safari in particular will stop getting new updates except if it has a security issue

Your first mistake was paying for an ad supported plan

Anyway thanks to Hollywood accounting only a few billionaires will get your money and not the people that actually worked on the movie

Yes and then “accidentally” fall down from a window as tradition

Having a foreigner come to study in the us is a great way to extend the American influence.

Of course, there are some assholes that abuse the student visa and instead of studying they lie on the application form and launch a startup like a certain south African billionaire. That can be fixed by deporting that specific billionaire and confiscating his assets. Boom, no more need of the “big beautiful bill” or other bills named by people with dementia

It’s insane that 30% POS usage considering that they have 3-4x the fees that other POS vendors are charging

Enshittification like it happened with maps.me is coming to organic maps?

If you only want to make calls, any betamax/dellmont VoIP provider allows you to spoof your number after a otp code verification

I do this with avm fritz box, it can take the physical line and act as a sip server on the lan. I connect via the integrated wireguard VPN and use portsip app for make phone calls

An old android phone with a micro-hdmi port

The last phone I saw with a micro HDMI port was the blackberry Z10 in 2013

I don’t want to be the asshole but 3 days of a super underpowered VM (it can be a oracle free tier for example) is a drop in the ocean compared to the $100/year/perpetuity that apple wants from devs

Main problem might be the content, as they might think that it’s going to be used for piracy

Maybe try to spin it as “Kevin macleod recommendation engine” by filling it with this content https://archive.org/details/incompetech-all-the-music-2020/page/n2/mode/1up

Guys, I found one other Microsoft claim that’s even more hilarious:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/windows/copilotplus-claims?tabs=amd

They say that:

1. Windows 11 PCs are faster than the MacBook air M4 (with the top of the line AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375, but only with cinebench. Because a fanless laptop like the MacBook air is perfect for run cinebench the whole day, I’m sure it won’t throttle)

2. They’re also faster than the MacBook air M3 (of course, if they were faster than M4…) of course still only with cinebench

3. And they’re faster than the MacBook air M2. Of course only with cinebench. I’m sure it’s only a coincidence that they are choosing a heavy benchmark for a fanless laptop instead of a MBP with better airflow. What’s next, comparing the result of multicore cinebench on a MacBook air wrapped in cellophane, inside a car parked in the Texan summer?

4. And that when running cinebench multicore, it’s FIVE TIMES FASTER than what you gonna get with a windows 10 PC!!! This claim was so hilarious that I had to find that test from that “reputable” third party and in the PDF they’re comparing a Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 with a ThinkPad E590 Intel Core i5-8265U. Of course the Ryzen is faster in multicore benchmark, it has 20 threads vs only 8… I don’t understand why they settled on a simple Ryzen AI 9 365. Why not comparing the 8th gen i5 U series with a threadripper pro 9995x in multicore cinebench? In this way they could claim “it’s HUNDRED TIMES FASTER!!!11!”

5. And the newest copilot+ windows 11 PCs are FOUR TIMES faster in 3D gaming (the catch: only in 3d mark and only if comparing with laptops with integrated graphics)
