So I finally did the math on data brokerage and worked out how much we're all being robbed

I know this isn’t strictly piracy related, I apologise, but I think it is tangentally related in that piracy protects you from data theft by avoiding the services the biggest thieves operate. Also, I feel like people here might be very interested in this take....

fmstrat,

Oh interesting, I didn’t know there was a citation feature but can’t see them in Thunder. PR time perhaps.

I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car (lemmy.world)

In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn’t feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in...

fmstrat,

Agreed.

fmstrat,

The article says the messages will go to the cloud but supplies no references. Half of the article is also answers from Bard. What is this garbage?

fmstrat,

Imgus is great

fmstrat,

Unexpected GP is needed.

fmstrat,

Depends on the sim. A good example would be Elite Dangerous. Buy the right HOTUS, put it in the right place, and when you don the headset, you see the controls you have.

fmstrat,

Just because you do something so crazy fast in your head it seems obvious, doesn’t mean you didn’t do the thing you did with the thing.

fmstrat,

Lots of good Rocco’s, but if you need to balance price and still get a high end machine, Lenovo Carbon. Runs fantastic out of the box, including S3/etc.

fmstrat,

Whoooooosh

Beer. It’s… soft?

fmstrat,

You can use Obtainium instead of F-droid. You can install Izzy, FD, or even better, direct from GitHub and other repos instead.

fmstrat,

But Mr. Krabs would be unhappy.

fmstrat,

Everyone repeats “Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow?”

But no one repeats the follow-up of “But what is today, except yesterday’s tomorrow?”

“Woman throws out old photos after divorce, person tracks her down to remind her.”

Note: Not what acutually happened, but how did they know?

fmstrat, (edited )

No, we write a bash script to install whatever it is and put it in a software folder that is synced on our next new install. This script also has to be updated every time, but, you get it.

fmstrat,

Oof, bad timing for that name selection. Especially with payment processing.

The invitation method is interesting, but will likely be its limiting factor vs its draw. Regular Jane/Joe wants to share their username, just not their number or email. Not being able to share verbally is tough.

fmstrat,

Marge is in the back with her hair down.

Greenland startup begins shipping glacier ice to cocktail bars in the UAE (www.theguardian.com)

Arctic Ice harvests ice from the fjords of Greenland, and then ships them to the United Arab Emirates to sell to exclusive bars. Using glacial ice in drinks is a common practice in Greenland, and, over the years, several entrepreneurs have unsuccessfully attempted to export it....

fmstrat,

I put this in the cross post, bit figure it belongs here, too:

While ridiculous, there’s interesting context here.

  • Greenland has little to no economy
  • The ice is mined from ice that has already broken away from the glacier, thus not reducing any more than nature has already
  • Cargo ships bringing frozen food used to leave empty, now that same fuel is used to transport ice back instead of going to waste
  • The founder has always dreamed of a sustainable economy for Greenland
  • He is conflicted about how his work to do this in a sustainable way is being taken

Lots of gray here.

fmstrat,

If you don’t already have one, use Kavita instead. It’s newer, has surpassed the Komga interface, and is still supported on T.

fmstrat,

Ahh, I tag my media using Mylar3, which adds a ComicInfo.xml to each file. Kavita seems to prioritize that over the filesystem.

fmstrat,

Oh, Komga is good, I just find everything about Kavita to be more modern. More options for layouts, deeper filtering, tablet and more phone friendly UI, etc.

fmstrat,

The video game Star Goose that came on a floppy disk.

fmstrat,

Funny, but mostly true due to timing. You have a lot more sunsets and sunrises outside of work and home than you do on holiday or with the time you are able to take out in nature.

fmstrat,

What was this from? As ridiculous as it is, that’s decent effects work.

fmstrat,

AodNotify almost replaced the LED for me. It always locked up my display black every few days so had to stop using it.
