It’s messed up when some random spyware Chinese camera is safer to use than anything made in the US.

Yup. Haven’t used Word in decades.

I’ve been using it for years, too. I have it on my bookmarks bar, but this will certainly be better, I’d think.

It depends on how much separation you need. If you want different bookmarks, history, or settings per, then I believe you need profiles to make that happen.

Apparently if they get flagged as underage when they aren’t.

Yet another example of how requiring ID is a shit idea.

I couldn’t get Netflix to play at high resolution on my old Roku because of some DRM crap. And I was a legit customer! Once again, piracy would have provided a superior experience.

I have a Kobo and it does OK. Nothing special.

I will never, ever purchase a book I can’t remove the DRM from.

And there are people out there who are absolutely fanatical about book preservation. They will photograph every single page and run it through OCR and recreate an ebook just so it gets preserved. DRM is absolutely pointless and stupid.

It’s not desirable to have a foreign government in control of TikTok. But it’s far, far less desirable to have your own government in control of TikTok.

Keep the donations coming. IA is worth a million times more to humanity than all of these publishers combined.

Hero. There’s only one gas station I use that has ads and I’ll try it there for sure. I deliberately avoid screened pumps.

I have seen no evidence that we as a species in general will be able to harness LLMs for good.

Way back in the day I was making $500 a month with AdSense ads on my sites. And then one month I started making $250 a month. I hadn’t changed anything. It’s a risky thing to rely on.

My buddy graduated and took a gap year. That year happened to be the dot com crash. So he kept backpacking for another year then started looking for work. 😁

This isn’t the first time this has happened, though.

If I wanted to raise superhumans, I’d simply not give them smartphones until they turned 18.

Additionally, I’m not paying that evil company a dime. All the people I follow on YT get way more money from me on Patreon.

Will AI finally replace CEOs?

I don’t trust the people making the national citizenship list to be honest about it.
