Garbage. They started this in order to provide very poor people the means to program and create things.

Adobe to update vague AI terms after users threaten to cancel subscriptions (arstechnica.com)

Adobe has promised to update its terms of service to make it "abundantly clear" that the company will "never" train generative AI on creators' content after days of customer backlash, with some saying they would cancel Adobe subscriptions over its vague terms....

_sideffect ,

Hahaha these asswipes can write what they want, and do the exact opposite.

And mark my words, they will get caught doing it.

_sideffect ,

I just disable all notifications for everything, and turn off all push notifications as well.

If I need to know something, I'll manually go check for it.

According to my usage, I use my phone only 2 hours a day

_sideffect ,

Lmao, you had me in the first half

But YouTube is just equal to what most people did before the internet... Browse garbage shows on cable tv

_sideffect ,

Failure? Not really.

He wouldn't be worth 230b if he was a failure.

Is he a lying, manipulative, vindictive person? Absolutely

_sideffect ,

What a pos company

I really need to start to de-google my life

_sideffect ,

Will do, thanks!

_sideffect ,

We all need to stop using this as our default search engine

"Sorry, you didn't pay your connection fee, so monitor 2 won't be working until you do"

_sideffect ,

Maybe to defend Dave, he thought that he was just doing a concert for amazon workers in general?

I'm sure they didn't explicitly state that "this private concert is for execs only"

_sideffect ,

You think Dave keeps up with all of this?

_sideffect ,

Lmao

"Hey you can't park here"

"There's no signs saying that?"

"I don't care if you know or not, don't be ignorant"

_sideffect ,

Do you think every person on the planet knows this information?

_sideffect ,

😂 Keep believing that everyone knows that. You have to open your mind as to exactly how much information is out there and who reads what.

_sideffect ,

That's irrelevant to my argument

_sideffect ,

And you think his manager gives two shits about who he performs for? Money comes in, the manager books the gig.

You can't blame Dave then, if as you said his manager set it up, which was my original point

_sideffect ,

🙄

_sideffect ,

Stupid counter argument

Is it stamped on their heads that they are neo Nazis or sex offenders? Lmao, come on.

The ugly truth behind ChatGPT: AI is guzzling resources at planet-eating rates (www.theguardian.com)

Despite its name, the infrastructure used by the “cloud” accounts for more global greenhouse emissions than commercial flights. In 2018, for instance, the 5bn YouTube hits for the viral song Despacito used the same amount of energy it would take to heat 40,000 US homes annually....

_sideffect ,

We all know this, and we all know the "ai" they have right now is anything but that.

But these companies are making billions from this gold rush hype, so they could give two shits about the planet

CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information (futurism.com)

You know how Google's new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won't slide off (pssst...please don't do this.)...

_sideffect ,

Fu win11 with its abundance of spyware and ai bs

_sideffect ,

Lmao, charge us for everything which was at first an incentive to buy your shit products

iPhones And Androids Can Now Warn You of 'Secret Trackers' (www.ibtimes.co.uk)

In a collaborative effort, Apple and Google have developed an industry-standard detection feature called "Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers" (DULT) for Bluetooth trackers. This standard allows users on iOS and Android devices to be alerted if an unknown Bluetooth tracker is monitoring their location.

_sideffect ,

Sure, but not the ones apple and google track you with

_sideffect ,

Them not having enough facial data from us

_sideffect ,

This is why he wants 25% of tesla so badly

I'll get downvoted being in this community, but in extreme climates where it goes down to - 30 Celsius and has up to 230cm of snow a season, bikes don't work.

Fall Spring summer, sure.

_sideffect ,

Ok, I guess some people are willing to bike in extreme weather.

I've never tried it, but I don't think I'd like to be out in -30 + windchill on a bike instead of in a heated car.

I'm all for better public transit though.

I do 65 minutes in the morning to work, and 80-85 coming home.

_sideffect ,

I know, unless you absolutely need the job and it's the only one that accepted your offer.

In my case however, the company lied to me; they said at the start I can shift to full remote over time, but 4 months in and they're saying that I need supervision to work (even though no one helps me with anything all day).

So I got fucked.

_sideffect ,

No worries, I understood your point.

But isn't it better to have homes further from the heart of Main cities?
I prefer the quiet of living in an area that only has residential housing.

_sideffect ,

That's what I said?

Also why 350 days?

_sideffect ,

That would be nice, being able to go home for lunch as well

_sideffect ,

Didn't I day spring fall and summer are ok?

_sideffect ,

No worries, I'm just as confused, lol

_sideffect ,

$15 for a subway sandwich

$25 for a poke bowl

$20 for a burger and fries

No kidding I'll eat my own cooking

_sideffect ,

A mix of dead pokemon

Kidding, lol

It's a bowl mixed with raw fish and edemane beans (if that's how they're spelled), rice, tuna, Lettuce, etc

_sideffect ,

Ai won't help since it'll be programmed to show only what it's owners want us to see

_sideffect ,

Big tech can go F itself.

All big tech has done is stolen our data and lied to us for their own needs.

Make all software FOSS

Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads (www.techradar.com)

Netflix has managed to annoy a good number of its users with an announcement about an upcoming update to its Windows 11 (and Windows 10) app: support for adverts and live events will be added, but the ability to download content is being taken away....

_sideffect ,

As they always did and continue to do in all businesses.

Look at food prices:
Supermarket - We're raising prices on 95% of items by 200-300%.
People: Steal because they can't afford basic food
Supermarket: Shocked pikachu face

_sideffect ,

Oh yeah? I didn't know that (not sure why you were downvoted for stating a fact, people are weird here)

_sideffect ,

That's the best way I've heard the current internet being described... One giant shopping mall with ads.

And it sucks.
