I’m glad Techdirt still exists.

Probably wouldn’t get me to leave Lemmy, but I wouldn’t mind another competitor to Reddit.

I’m trying to get into creating electronic circuits. I’m terrible at it, though.

lol, I’m currently licensed and have never put my voice out on radio.

I’m also a software developer and I’ve never touched any of that professionally. There’s a lot more diversity of ecosystems out there, bud.

Well, you have now.

Video seems off. Weird frame rate jitters when panning.

And it’s going to take a little while for these expected effects to even be felt nationwide. Right now, everything is mostly just talk, unless you happen to interact with some of the understaffed agencies.

Calling this thing a “real life flying” car is generous. This thing just looks like a mock-up at best and it didn’t appear to even have a driver/pilot during the demo.

This thing will be bad in the air and bad on the ground.

It still looks like that but it did then, too.

What is it you’re looking for? Do you want to know what kinds of information is used for fingerprinting?

If so, check out coveryourtracks.eff.org and amiunique.org.

And automatic darkmode isn’t respected, and a lot of other little annoyances. That’s why this is so difficult. These are all incredibly useful features we would have to sacrifice for privacy.

Thanks for the correction. That’s pretty rad. Now I’m wondering if that’s a wrong memory or if it was released in the last few years.

Their backend is closed source.

[EDIT: Incorrect, see below]

Blog spam. The source article is actually worth reading.

Face readers: Artificial intelligence is becoming better than humans at scanning animals’ faces for signs of stress and pain. Are more complex emotions next?

Some of us subscribe to some of them, sometimes they’re gift links, other times we can use archive.is or the Wayback machine to get access. Bonus points when these mirror links are in the post body.

It’s important to link the canonical source though.

If the paid subreddits pay out to the creators, that seems like an okay feature. Also dipping into the Patreon market.

I don’t think you need to be dysphoric to want to be forgotten. I don’t think it’s any less reasonable than wanting to have a legacy.

The real question is, what does the “right to be forgotten” even mean? You can’t have a right that involved other peoples’ thoughts. In most cases I think it’s the right to be able to own and remove records you created on third party systems.

The right to be forgotten, as I usually read it, is the right to have Google or Meta or whatever to remove your account and everything associated with it. I wish that were law.

I guess. I don’t get it.

This sums it up exactly!

What?

To go with the theme of this thread, I have no interest in debating why I downvoted you, nor if downvotes should be used for any reason. What I didn’t get is why you would (or not I guess since you replied) disengage with someone that downvoted you.

My actual question that you can’t seem to answer was: now that you know I downvoted your comment (the information you’ve been advocating for), now what? What are you going to do with that information now that you have it? Why is it so important to you to have it?

I guess. I don’t get it. If I refused to talk to anyone if they ever downvoted me, I would run out of people to talk pretty quickly.
