It’s a bank! It’s a dating app! It’s a video hosting service, a town square, a shopping mall, a floor wax AND a dessert topping! Why go anywhere else? Just stare at the middle of the big shiny X until it makes sense!

It is often heard from non-native speakers and will probably be understood, but in the absence of other context it will be perceived as slightly odd. Perhaps it’s on the way to being widely recognized as fully “correct” but I don’t think it’s there yet.
vastly expands the pool of potential victims
I’m not brave enough at the moment to say it isn’t some kind of crime, but creating such images (as opposed to spamming them everywhere, using them for blackmail, or whatever) doesn’t seem to be a crime that involves any victims.
Not sure if it’s from an alternate universe or from our own future, but somewhere there is a version of this article that’s like “Today, the market for Mastodon alternatives is a crowded one to say the least. There are numerous services for consumers to try, including the open-source based Misskey, smaller startups like Pleroma, plus the Elon Musk-based product formerly known as Twitter.”

13% may not sound like a lot, but it includes almost all of the 10% who weren’t complete idiots.
I’ve just noticed that this is in c/piracy. I suppose there’s lots of interest in the story here and everywhere else, but I’d just like to remind you all that ad-blocking is not piracy.
It is if you redefine AGI to mean the thing that’s already here, although to get away with that it helps if at the same time you overestimate what LLMs are capable of doing.
My CPM numbers are pretty out of date, perhaps their costs have gone up with inflation. On the other hand perhaps they’ve gone down with storage and bandwidth costs.
Yeah I’d pay up to $7 per 1000 videos, that does seem like a fair price. It’d cover about 3 years of my typical usage.
“Halved?” No. There should not be software patents. They are good for nothing.
They train the children to know and accept that they will be watched closely by anonymous strangers for their entire lives.
I just tested my favourite cloudflare-blocked site and it still hangs on “verifying the security of your connection” in my figerprinting-resistant browser profile.
In that case use some other DNS server.
It appears that the other guy didn’t call you a fanboy. He implied that you might be a troll, before you’d listed that software and after you’d called him a fanboy.
But yeah, it’ll probably be a while before there’s a Linux version of Adobe Illustrator, and the alternatives are different enough that it’d be a lot of work to switch even if it’s otherwise practicable.
I understand why they can’t have proprietary drivers
Who can’t have them? 90-some percent of Linux distributions make them available to those who are unfortunate enough to need them.
Will win 7 be the last ever usable OS from Microsoft, or will Windows 13 turn out decent? Only time will tell.
You do have to figure though, that it’s only the most active users who will opt to pay $14/month
I’d say it’s more likely to be the most wealthy users who will pay the $14, and it seems plausible that the most devoted facebook users might care less about avoiding the ads than people who are there only reluctantly. So maybe slightly closer to the middle of that 11% to 342% range.
Alternative headline: Google is making it even harder for non-Google operators of mail servers to interoperate with gmail.
If everyone on the fediverse goes to google.com right now and searches for “best new iphone car insurance shopping aarp member bad credit” maybe we can save the economy.
