Reddit had a good run for over a decade, but as always with the internet, now a better thing will take its place.

It would just save emissions not money. Is Berlin afraid to invest in any big projects with a bit of risk, because they’re still traumatized by the airport debacle, that took about a decade more to finish?! Correct me if you’re ein Berliner. Taking a bit longer is normal in big infrastructure projects but years is something different.

The news industry is a billion dollar business that thrives on your attention. Any headline like this is meant to get you engaged in the bullshit cycle.

Before people throw their PC/laptop away, they either sell it on ebay, tinker with or keep using it. It’s not like MS is gonna block your system from booting.

the greeks had pansexual relationships long before there even was a church.

This week on billionaire’s gossip: who’s gonna pull their ads out of which social media network… and will they block each other on their app stores or IRL?! Stay tuned to find out if your Tesla is affected!!

The obvious benefit is that they can at least access potential extra views. Without implementing some kind of ad system though, it’s just eyes…so is this just PR for threads?

just skip to the next already.

All these fossil fuel addicts don’t realize that their home-countries won’t support human life anymore in a few decades. And they have so much money, that pivoting their investments to renewables would be no problem, even profitable for them and their offspring some financial experts might say. But they won’t because the wells aren’t dry yet.

Adobe already did this to their CC users. Just opted everyone in to scanning of files and creations. There’s gotta be consumer prptection laws against this.

A machine learning algorithm is only as good as the data you feed it. flawed or incomplete data just puts out false/biased positives and some systems will always try to output any data that you might accept. So if the approach really was “it’s like a streetlight, when it’s green we bomb”, then that’s really dark skynet stuff. But Imho blaming a machine, just sounds like a bad PR excuse for getting out of a potential crimes against humanity charge in den haag.

This is the point exactly. The UN is a voluntary forum for signatory nations to meet and talk shit out.

What some people think of instead is the UN security council made up of 5 permanent members (US, UK, France, China, Russia) and 10 rotating members (every two years) deciding on intervention in conflicts, but there can be no veto on resolutions. That’s been a problem in the past, because rival nations just cancel each other out on some issues, making meaningful progress difficult.

People shouldn’t blame the UN for initiating talks. We now know, 121 nations are in favor of a ceasefire, 44 abstained or are too afraid to take sides and only 14 veto’d it and wanna continue bombing, that sends a pretty clear message about what the majority of nations thinks should happen.

Instead blame the nuclear powers for not being able to talk to each other anymore, blame the radicals in any conflict. Don’t blame the diplomacy.

Nobody is surprised and that’s a bad sign. The UN was invented to give the nations of our world a shared forum to talk things out and find a “resolution” before genociding each other. The thing is we can’t expect the UN to stop conflict.

Edit: Some people seem to confuse the UN security council with the UN. The SC has only 15 members (5 permanent member nations, 10 rotating member nations) and is usually asked to vote on intervention once a resolution was passed. It can’t act with a veto.

German Government is still paying for XP and Win7 Updates, because some software just isn’t available on newer OS’s.

…unless the justice department do their fucking jobs, nobody is above the law.

Theoretically they could both just let their sons run and shout at the other side from the bench.

… and once they have rounded up and sent every minority into mandatory service for the war effort, there will be nothing left of the arts, sciences and cultural diversity, that makes a society blossom. They are undoing themselves, they don’t need anybody’s help.

The justification for this is demonetizing white-noise tracks or other work without creative effort that supposedly costs spotify too much. I’m not a fan of the direction this is going because one of the best things about the platform was it’s selection of underground music. This just buries it deeper and doesn’t help artists that are trying to break through. It just shovels the profits to the top earners who are already doing quite well. There aren’t many alternatives and bancamp has been passed down from epic games to songtradr and isn’t anywhere near a real alternative yet.

Well that was the dumbest explanation ever, that’s basically just political pretext to give the government contract to some french company. Potentially there has been some lobbying going on.

Signal doesn’t store it’s encryption/decryption keys in the cloud, so you would need the devices and then you would still have to decrypt content if the user doesn’t give you access manually.

To crack a 128-bit AES key, it would take 1 billion billion years with a current supercomputer. To crack a 256-bit AES key, it would take 2^255 / 2,117.8 trillion years on average.

So until some amazing quantum computer comes along, this is pretty safe. Fuck Olvid.

They hugely miscalculated, trust was already at its lowest. In Europe this already breaks several GDPR laws. Not to mention child protection laws.

And it’s not just about pron, that’s just a catchier headline. It could be religious, political or in some countries banned movies that gets people in trouble.
