Ironically, the accident that caused them to decide Cruise is unsafe was started by a human driver hit-and-run. So the humans are still more unsafe, but they are punishing the robots for it

It’s right there in the name: PHP

Seriously though maintaining a PHP server is a security nightmare and you have to be constantly updating if you don’t want to be hacked. Just not worth it when there’s better options out there

You’re not supposed to remember your dreams. When you remember your dreams it’s when you were woken unexpectedly, or when you consciously or unconsciously fled the dream before returning it to the Dreammaster.

We only borrow our dreams from him every night, but when we leave a dream prematurely we are stealing that dream - bringing it into our reality and hiding it away in our memories.

However precious or horrid your stolen dreams may be, remember that the Dreammaster will claim them back from you. He always does, in the end.

That’s why you should use a native app, which won’t send any of that identifying info (except for IP but there’s nothing you can do on that)

Did they really “win” though? Now users are just going to have to look at crappy irrelevant ads.

I actually like FB/Insta ads. They’re products I actually want and sometimes buy. In fact sometimes when I’m looking for a product, I’ll Google for it without incognito mode, and waiting for the ads to show up. Creepy but somehow actually delivers better results than the actual Google search!

Actually pretty much all companies do this in some form or another. Even Gmail and lots of other Google apps use web instead of native for some parts. They just do it well. When a company does it poorly it really shows.

Didn’t he fire one of the twitter engineers because he corrected him on a Twitter thread?

Ironic because it’s literally the same situation that Reddit was going through that caused the migration to Lemmy in the first place

So exciting! For some reason it says “Coming soon” on my Galaxy Fold tho

I guess they have a pitchfork shortage or something

Looks like the hill has fur

How did they submit changes to only one file? Did they not write a test for it? Sounds like a dodgy patch if it doesn’t have a test

I got it bundled with my YouTube Music subscription. Definitely worth it, especially considering you’d pay the same amount for Spotify and not get any videos

And how has ad tracking personally harmed you or even inconvenienced you?

Nah. I would hate to live in a country that bans personalized ads. It would be like living in the 90s watching cable TV seeing completely irrelevant tampon and baby ads as a single dude.

Personalized ads are much less annoying than the “spray-and-pray” noise we used to deal with.

Heck I would settle for just seeing a post from a person once I my feed, instead of seeing the last reply, then other posts, then the second-to-last reply, then after a lot more scrolling finally seeing the original post.

The problem with chronological feeds is that prolific posters in your timezone just take it over and you never see stuff from people in other timezones or infrequent posters.

That’s wild that shared ptr is so inefficient. I thought everyone was moving towards those because they were universally better. No one mentions the performance hit.

I used to write a lot of performance-critical Java (oxymoron I know) for wearables, and one time I got a code reviewer who only did server-side Java, and the differences in our philosophies were staggering.

He wanted me to convert all my code to functional style, using optionals and streams instead of simple null checks and array iterations. When explained that those things are slower and take more memory it was like I was speaking an alien language. He never even had to consider that code would be running on a system with limited RAM and CPU cycles, didn’t even understand how that was possible.

Does it have a feature where you can feed fake GPS locations and contacts to apps that require those permissions to work? Loved that in some old Android ROMS

Is this an ad for something or just trying to spread general fear and panic?
