Fast-charging an EV for an hour would use the same amount of electricity a home would likely use in a day.

There was personal information included in the data. Did no one actually read the article?

Big emphasis on the ‘A’

Only idiots think Apple is privacy friendly lol.

Apple has everyone fooled.

Apple are privacy-focused insofar as they will privately sell your data, sneakily.

Had mine for over 20 years until it disappeared. Years later still no idea what happened to it. Only issue I had with it was the clock it had, broke halfway through owning it.

Ideas are easy. If you find the secret to sustainable implementation let me know.

Ja that’s right, I knew it was a plant or something. Thanks!

Now you’ve outdone Google.

Alright, calm down. If they “outdid” Google, they would have their own SEO dreamland platform. All they did was work within the confines of Google’s algorithms, A/B testing until something works. When Google makes changes they repeat. Overall the Internet is in a reeeeally shitty state due to the marketization of search results. There have been some things I have searched for whereby there were pages of what was essentially cloned articles. Many times I’m unable to even find what I’m looking for. Recent example, there was that article posted about that AI service / software that aimed to poison images, I don’t remember the name. I tried searching for the actual software / website. I gave up and never found it through the utter bullshit “articles” all spouting the exact same thing and clearly taking advantage of the “freshness” and relevancy of the tool.

It is. Something something, using their likeness (in a commercial context).

All of those are outside activities, right? In my town we have flyers and stuff in a few different locations. At times I get annoyed I can’t find information about events online, and then I think no it’s actually a good thing.

That’s perfect. There was a thread not too long ago discussing how Amazon Prime removed am item from someone’s media library and gave them $5 as “compensation”. Imagine someone coming into your house and taking something they don’t sell anymore and leaving 5 bucks on your kitchen counter for your troubles. So many people in this world want their cake and eat it too, you can’t have it both ways. If it was agreed that buying a digital asset conferred some type of ownership, they might have an argument now. They made their bed, now they can piss off and do what they want with it, it’s theirs to do with as they please because we can never own a part of it.

Define stealing digital content.

Unraid (you pay for how many disks you have in your array, you can get the unlimited one for like $119 - would have to double-check but it’s around 100 bucks, it’s not subscription-based, so once you buy it you have it for good). Been using it for years, it’s great and is pretty easy to set up. If you have any questions let me know. They’re constantly improving it.

One day they find a way to inject ads into the downloaded file, don’t worry.

What are people doing to get this message? I haven’t seen a YouTube ad in so long I can’t remember.

• Don’t use the official app, use something like NewPipe or the equivalent on iPhone, on desktop use Firefox with uBlock origin (go into settings and enable filters at your leisure)

• Get a VPN that has adblocking built in (I use Mullvad, I honestly don’t know how effective it is because I have other adblocking as well on top)

• if you want to get fancy with your home network, use AdGuard on a raspberry pi or docker or whatever works best for you

I tried looking into “carbon neutral” the other day and got lost in a sea of bullshit. I didn’t find a source that goes into the whole process in actual detail. I mean explaining things and giving practical examples of it all. I came out of it thinking, wow it’s all just complete nonsense. “We do what we can to reduce emissions, then pay someone else to ‘offset’ the remaining emissions somehow by mysterious companies”. Don’t ask any more questions, okay? It’s magic.

I almost literally yawned reading the title. “Journalists” regurgitating things they don’t understand and hyping them everytime like it’s the breakthrough of the century. I feel it waters down actual breakthroughs and makes people immune or at least apathetic to these stories because it’s the same thing over and over.

HTC TyTN II. Loved that thing. Used to pay Age of Empires on it.
