Siegfried , to Technology in Google to shut down Keen, its experimental Pinterest-like social media platform

I have seen dead social media or social media approaching its dead, but I ve never seen this. Keen looks like it had zero activity for a long, long time.

yournamehere , to Privacy in Microsoft has adhered to the European Union's Digital Markets Act (DMA) by enabling Windows 11 users to uninstall Microsoft OneDrive, Microsoft Edge, and Microsoft Bing, and more.

turdware is EOL.

sure some ppl still use myspace, tidal or google search like its the 00s
but lets be real: with the rise of AI it is also tze end of US based services - as meta and google pointed out it is impossible to gate AI.

the only thing that will prevail is FOSS. the later you join, the more likely you'll be the dinosaur turning into a fossil.

over and over again dumb twats keep rooting for their echochamber of stupid and 10 years later they crawl back to society and like drop whatsapp for signal, office CD ISO for googledocs and so on.

right now i think the biggest indicator if being a twat is owning anything from apple. they are currently the biggest stronghold of stupid.
geez, remember my dad rooting for VHS and DVD....put in so much money and now it is worth nothing and everyone knows he was a dumb twat. so see an iPhone user 8 think of how stupid people are.

i love schizo rants

drawerair , to Technology in Microsoft complies with EU's DMA, allowing uninstalling of OneDrive, Edge, Bing, and more

"The European Commission has exempted Bing and Microsoft Edge from DMA oversight due to their non-dominant market position."

I wonder if Microsoft's legal department advised Nadella to abide by the spirit of the law (despite the exemption) to prevent possible headaches in the future.

This is 👍 news. I don't use Edge. Google is my search engine, not Bing. 1 may change Edge's default search engine, but I never bothered.

Microsoft has been betting big on ai. They may be OK with "competition", "fair playing field" or "pro-choice" things if ai will give them billions in profit in the future.

It's 👍 that alternativeto.net is still around. I've been going there to find alternate programs.

CluckN , to Technology in YouTube now requires creators to disclose when AI-generated content is used in videos

It’s a good first step. If claiming your AI video is real gets more views then I’m curious if the risks outweigh the cost of being caught.

You can only really pull that with older people and children. Most of us millennials can spot the patterns AI gen produces, but I've seen my dad just consume the content and be largely unaware of the fact that it was artificially generated. He constantly complains those videos say nothing but watches tons of them anyways, mostly related to non-news about sports.

is this only on EU or every windows install will be abel to do this?

cy_narrator , to Technology in Microsoft and IBM make MS-DOS 4.00 Open-Source

Even Windows XP is unofficially open source at this point.

jaybone , to Technology in Disney to implement measures limiting password sharing on streaming services from June

What do they mean from June? Are they going to retroactively charge people? Or they mean in the future, so people have time to cancel now.

thisbenzingring , to Technology in Microsoft complies with EU's DMA, allowing uninstalling of OneDrive, Edge, Bing, and more

This probably only applies to the Windows N version?

maynarkh ,

Maybe, but the N version was in response of another regulation that was less stringent in enforcement.

If they only do it in the N version, all other versions become prohibited to sell in the EU. I'd guess this is all versions, and the EU region lock is enforced differently.
