It’s both. Even terrible people with something to lose are less likely to throw it all away.

If this guy makes $35k a year at dollar general, he probably doesn’t go on a murder spree.

But you could also just not be an asshole. Why go after random people instead of someone who actually helps cause the bullshit?

If there’s one issue, ever, that you should be at least a little “both sides” on, it’s this one.

There’s no way you can honestly argue only one side of this.

I was in M2-XFE. That whole experience certainly taught a lot about the power of narrative and propaganda. And the later blockade showed what leadership failures look like.

We always had the advantage in that blockade, and could have stayed there for another year had the allies stuck together. Or we could have executed real plans to break them and end the war. Instead we did the worst of both.

the land they stole.

Do you consider that all of Israel?

They refused to respond to an Australian government investigation. (Because Elon fired the two people who interfaced with Australia.)

The fine is not directly because they haven’t cracked down*, but because they couldn’t competently answer if they’re handling it at all.

(* and they’ve probably fired enough trust and safety people that they’re also having trouble there, but that’s not exactly what the fine is for.)

Removed by mod

As a software dev, I don’t think there really is a better way. One thing you could do to avoid this is to install a second drive and boot to completely different OSes. You could boot to a Linux drive for personal stuff, and only use Windows for gaming.

These gaming companies are pretty aware that they go bankrupt if they either get a reputation for abusing anti-chrst data OR are full of cheaters. They have some incentive to use data ethically. But it’s still a good thing to keep an eye on.

Probably Netflix, YouTube, and streaming apps first. I’d say banks, but banks are slow. Games won’t take long. If there’s not enough blowback it’ll spread to every website that uses captchas today.

It’s something like

Help > About > Check for updates

My 7.6.0.3 won’t auto update. Says there are no updates available. I’m trying a manual install.

If you can open it, they can open it. There’s not much of a point if it’s something you can undo.

enshittification is an inevitable late stage consequence

Maybe, but I don’t think it is. Enshittification is a direct result of our tax policy that encourages cashing out, only looks at the short term, and requires constant growth.

There was a time when companies built a reputation and held onto it for a hundred years. We could go back to that.

Tax the rich.

You do have to turn off battery saver for the background process. Phones tend to not like background processes. That would cause the behavior you’re seeing.

Settings > Apps > App battery usage > Immich > Set to “unrestricted”

Also I have mine set to a ten minute delay, maybe that’s why I haven’t noticed. Maybe try adding a small delay to the load?

(Primarily I wanted a chance to delete photos before they uploaded.)

Immich is working pretty well for me. Even the search does a decent job of recognizing the things in the pictures.

I’m not sure what Google photos has that Immich doesn’t, and I’ve been using Google photos for years.

Is she just starting college? A relationship with someone who’s not at her school might be rough for her. I’d be forever disappointed if I didn’t have those life experiences.

Yeah, there’s really nothing wrong with a 50 year old dating a 19 year old. Age is just a number. There’s no power imbalance there or expectations. It’s perfectly healthy for the 19 year old to get into a long term relationship where their partner is going to be 70 before they’re 40.

Or, maybe, half your age + 7 is a good rule. It’s pretty lenient.

Yeah, this is probably the way I’d go about it. Dedicated hard drive, separate/no network access, no access to other files. Who cares if it is malware if it can’t get to anything.

The four day head start thing being bullshit was a good point. But yeah, I’m not likely to pirate an executable any time soon.
