There are way more companies who want to text-mine user content than there are blind people using the internet to read my content.

Be careful that unlimited ( more acurately labeled via the "high speed data" limit) is a widely used practice of false advertising.
Check the throttle speed to see what happens after you run out of data.

Firefox 126: New Search Data Telemetry, Improved Copy Without Site Tracking, Security Fixes, and More (www.mozilla.org)

Telemetry was added to create an aggregate count of searches by category to broadly inform search feature development. These categories are based on 20 high-level content types, such as "sports,” "business," and "travel". This data will not be associated with specific users and will be collected using OHTTP to remove IP...

Lets say you live in a tribe. Everyone eats the same shit. Everyone does the same work. Everyone feels the same way. Why is it necessary to pinpoint an individual?
Any specimen from the batch is going to tell you what you what you want to know.

Diaspora has private groups. But many downsides.
For example.. discovering people, first involves sharing with them.

The internet isn't worth so much that people are going to be willing to pay $100 and get their shit stolen.

I don't know why we even pay unless having the 100% desired experience.

  • 100% privacy
  • 0 ads
  • full decentralization
  • lightning speeds
  • good experience

Anything less is a scam.
Live your best life possible.

99% of the population doesn't get this.
They aren't even aware that this is an option.
They settle for mainstream social media jail.

edit: should add: low price.
this is lesser important depending on how much experience is fulfilled.

unions do more than just strong-arm negotiation.
"While union representation is not a magic bullet to workplace safety problems, there is little doubt that it makes a positive difference. A recent report surveying the construction industry published by the Illinois Economic Policy Institute based on publicly reported OSHA data found that union worksites are 19% less likely to have an OSHA violation and had 34% fewer violations per OSHA inspection than non-union worksites. Overall, while unions represent 14% of the construction industry employees, their employers account for only 5% of the industry’s OSHA violations."

i have heard it suggested that it could be national goverment who did this. so that means it could be israel, america, or china, etc .
i view this as potentially very well funded governments vs ordinary people. we never stood a chance.

whether or not tiktok spreads misinformation..* i do not know.*
but its the only platform i know that feeds your political tendancies if you continually seek it out.
i am very certain that other platforms tend to funnel you toward trad lib (if anything at all!)
so, what some people claim about mainstream censorship.. is true. (in my experience)

Tools for collecting traffic data on my street?

I'm working with my neighbors to petition the city to add traffic calming measures (e.g. speed bumps, one way roads) to my street. I'm also hoping to turn it into a bit of a research project. Does anyone know of any tools to monitor or even automate data collection of the speeds of cars, number of cars going by, how many...

if you live in a city then they should do this for you. alot of cities have open data. if they dont.. the probably still have the data they just dont want to share it with you.

how much would it cost to provide this endless stream of media? im guessing it would be very costly.

flatpak is about permission:

the fact that gtk, qt, firefox pull in a hlndred deps is their own problem.
not a problem per se..

ask software to install itself twice and it becomes noticable how enormous the code is.

Android Microphone Snooping (lemmy.world)

So I had a verbal conversation with a coworker yesterday and now I'm getting fed very specific ads. No possible way it's accidental. I have most of the microphone access to apps limited, I have Google assistant turned off and no VPA setup in my home. I use a Oneplus 9 pro, does anyone have recommendations on how to further root...

Good mini PC for around 100€

My current setup consists of a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4gb RAM and a 1tb external SSD. I'm thinking of getting a used mini PC for around 100€ to replace that tho because it would give me a lot more power and especially RAM (I currently need to use an 8gb swap file). My plan so far is to get a used mini PC that's quiet, has a...

i dont think alot of ppl need a super small comp. it comes with disadvantages. harder or more limited upgrades.

leanleft ,
@leanleft@lemmy.ml avatar

thats kinda true. (even excluding gemini lynx user like myself) comps and phones have reached overkill for most users. therefore sff is totally fine for most users.
truth is.. only reason i dont have a bigger pc is that i want flexibility to move apt if my landlord raises rent. thats literally the only reason.
otherwise i would have dual socket, 8 sticks memory, full sized gpu, etc.
i dont mind not having all that. although, it could be used for something.. currently it would be used for nothing.

using terminal can be productive.

its a sensible choice because many potential implementers hae been dissuaded by the anxiety attached to risks of giving out phone number. (harrassment, stalker, spammer, scammer) . the telephone system has paralyzed itself in fear. yet we all keep buying their shit.

leanleft ,
@leanleft@lemmy.ml avatar

if you use textfree, you can probably register on signal with a fake-as-fuck phone number. but i think textfree requires a valid phone number for that.
very sucky to have to do all that.

basically no, because all existing modern software requires either wayland and/or Xwayland(xorg)
