DarkThoughts,

Spotify is still the worst in that regard. It even loves to constantly repeat the same ~5 songs or so, at least before I quit the damn thing. Winamp has done this better a couple decades ago already, among many other features.

DarkThoughts,

NordVPN will log and share your data if ordered by court. They've confessed as much last year.

DarkThoughts,

You do you but it also means that if they suspect you of illegal downloads or streams and get that court order, that they'll log that shit and then you'll receive those lovely letters eventually, making the whole point of the VPN pointless.

DarkThoughts,

Is this actually a growing issue right now or just some media panic?
Because I just bought a couple regular mattress protectors, the ones you put on top, not the ones that encase the whole mattress. :/

DarkThoughts,

Box spring? You're funny. I have a mattress on a cardboard bed. lol

DarkThoughts,

My main issue is they want credit card info to get an API key, which is required if you want to use it through (properly integrated) addons or whatever. The translations are pretty much magic though. Really good results most of the time.

DarkThoughts,

It's called legal precedence.

DarkThoughts,

Then use an addon that uses translation services like Google or DeepL? Or hire an actual translator if you feel that's also unacceptable.

DarkThoughts,

I could see it happen eventually. Would definitely be the best outcome for this whole consent banner madness.

DarkThoughts,

It's not Vodafone but someone using Vodafones network.

DarkThoughts,

Linux has its flaws, but so does Windows. And for me, the flaws in Windows became much more annoying than the ones in Linux. Game compatibility was the main factor that kept me backt from using it on a desktop, and that's a non issue nowadays.

DarkThoughts,

Mostly just streaming, maybe some direct downloads i like paywalled / premium OC. I couldn't really afford either anyway so I can't say I feel too bad about it. If VoD providers wouldn't have turned out to be so garbage I might've gotten one of them, but not if that means I can't watch everything anyway. Like what's the point? I'm not gonna subscribe to everyone or hop around services. Exclusive content kinda killed them in my eyes.

DarkThoughts,

Inflation rate of the EU is at its lowest since October 2021.
Meanwhile the conversation rate is 99 Ruble for 1€.
So yes, thank you. We're actually doing pretty alright. But I'm sure your propaganda media tells you something very different.

DarkThoughts,

Well. If you think the grass is greener on Russia's side, then go on and move over.
I also like how you avoided the other persons question of how that's the EU's fault for Russia to play imperialistic asshole.

DarkThoughts,

Hungary is suffering from their own pro Russia policy making & voting, which they're still holding onto. So apologies when I can't bring up a whole lot of sympathies for them and the repercussions they're facing from that. Germany is also not doing the greatest, and for similar reasons, at least in the energy sector. But at least now most parties sans the far left and far right have understood that.

DarkThoughts,

lmao
What in the absolute fuck does this have anything to do with being democratic? Are you just throwing buzzwords around now? Seriously, just move to Russia and get shredded on the front. It would do us all a favor.

DarkThoughts,

At least something we can agree on, except that people like you being the reason why that is the case.

DarkThoughts,

You made up some word salad that had nothing to do with the topic, got called out for it and now got no actual arguments left. You're welcome.

DarkThoughts,

Best to block all Lemmy.ml communities, as it is full of tankies, including the mods.

This specific one has mods who let reported tankie disinformation in form of both comments & threads stay, as well as insults towards other users by the same individuals. I tried reporting rule breaking comments & threads for a few weeks, monitored if they'd do anything, but nothing happened and the same users continued doing the same spiel in other threads.

If Lemmy.ml isn't distancing itself from Lemmygrad and Hexbear and does enforce their rules selectively, then there's no reason to treat them the same as those other extremist communities.

DarkThoughts,

The travesty is how many people are unable to say this out loud. Everyone is stuck in their black & white tribalism, making them blind for their own sides atrocities.
You can be pro Palestine and still condemn Hamas. You can be critical of the Israeli government and still grief for all the innocent Hamas victims. It's not actually that hard to be a decent human being.

misinformation

noun

  • Wrong information; false account or intelligence.
  • Untrue or incorrect information.
  • Information that is incorrect.

Would be a pretty bad misinformation campaign if they were telling the truth.

Reddit CEO praises Elon Musk’s cost-cutting as protests rock the platform

In an interview Thursday with NBC News, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman praised Musk’s aggressive cost-cutting and layoffs at Twitter, and said he had chatted “a handful of times” with Musk on the subject of running an internet platform.

Huffman said he saw Musk’s handling of Twitter, which he purchased last year, as an example for Reddit to follow

DarkThoughts,

No. And I think if you have such a fetish for it you should seek professional help.

DarkThoughts,

I don't. Why would you even move to a hot humid place without knowing how that actually is?
