The new age verifying app for the EU will only accept Google Play integrity for Android, de-facto banning any aftermarket OS like GrapheneOS
Web dev here. We REALLY SHOULD NOT be relying on GOOGLE for anything involving INTEGRITY. Only allowing Googles API for this is dystopian af. This is absolutely terrible.

TIL that from 1264 to 1827, anyone who received a Master of Arts degree from Oxford had to swear that they would never forgive Henry Symeonis. By 1608, no one knew who he was or what he had done
Fuck Henry Symeonis, all my homies hate Henry Symeonis.

YouTube is deliberately crippling Firefox on ARM systems
The more bullshit like this I read about YouTube the more I despite them. I already use GrayJay on mobile and I'm using ublock Origin + ublock Matrix on Librewolf to control cookie usage on desktop. So far I've been able escape the video player block by clearing cache.
I'm just waiting for the day they "force" me onto another frontend.

Facebook Allegedly Detected When Teen Girls Deleted Selfies So It Could Serve Them Beauty Ads
Happy I got AdNauseam after uBlock Origin. Deleted my facebook a year ago, shit is an AI slopfest built upon the greed and manipulation of every part of the chain. Defcon 31 has a good talk that brings this up. "Disenshittify or die" by Cory Doctrow, cann recommend to watch.

Google has a price for you. We found it.
This feels like a good post to mention AdNauseam! For anyone who wants an adblocker that helps more than just you! It basically blocks ads but also sends a click request to every ad that should have been loaded. The data being sent with this request contains spoofed garbage data that makes the tracking data sets lose value. It also keeps a funny metric on how much the estimated cost for your clicks is :)

Nintendo is suing the creators of Switch emulator Yuzu
Typical Nintendo move. So sad to see Yuzu possibly going down this way. Even looks like Nintendo might win this one. I'm just gonna download the entire source from GitHub just in case.
I wish this would just go full hydra mode if it goes down though. Start popping up new anonymous accounts releasing the source code everywhere.

The "i" in Linux and Linus have different pronunciations even when they shouldn't.
Except it doesn't in Finnish, where Linus Torvald is from. Linus and Linux is pronounced the same except for the final consonant.

Microsoft punishes idiots who purchased a "perpetual" license of Office 2019 for Mac by disabling it next month, pirates unaffected
Victim-blaming is the real stupidity here. Microsoft harasses its customers (again) and now the customers are the idiots?
This is the same type of propaganda Nvidia is trying to push. Jensen Huang saying "people should have planned better, the rising prices of hardware was imminent" is the exact same tactic of being the cause of the problem and still putting the blame of everyone else.

Where are the #FreeTheHostages people now?
Reply in thread
Braindead comment. Literally this is what they expected. Either they get media publicity showing how Israel is transgressing and commiting crimes on international water or they get to Gaza and can help people there. Even if they didnt bring a cruiser cargo of supplies they can still actively help the situation there.
They risk their lives fully aware of what the outcomes are and you are incapable of even thinking a singular action ahead - baffling.

Nvidia "confirms" DLSS 5 relies on 2D frame data as testing reveals hallucinations
Reply in thread
Doesnt really matter IMO. If you have known bugs and flaws you dont showcase those, or if they are present in the showcase you atleast adress them and show what is to be expected upon release. NVIDIA just flat out didnt care. As soon as motion increases the artefacting is crazy. How do you even decide that this is remotely good enough for a demo?

When will we replace influencers with AI? Seems to generate equal amounts of slop.

When will we have reached enough productivity?
This is what I find fascinating about capitalism. It builds on the premise of increasing profit by increasing efficiency and quantity. With that mindset we should strive to improve efficiency until no one needs to work and everything is automated and autonomous, no? That would be the peak of efficiency? But then how would people pay for the products being produced? They cant, it needs to be free, since no one has a salary because theyre not working. But then the CEOs wouldnt make money. So theres no incentive unless your goal is not monetary but to improve the ultimate wellbeing of humanity. Its inherently a flawed concept since the main incentive is monetary, yet we refuse to accept what must be the ultimate goal to be able to keep power above others.
And yes, i know this is very simplified. But still explain to me why we do mass layoffs in favor of AI slop if the incentive is not entirely monetary and for the sake efficiency and or cutting costs. Explain how and who will survive the further we go along? Capitalism at its core makes the rich the survivors. There wont be infinite recursions of 10x productivity revolutions because the workers will die off in the process.

Lemmy.ml hates... Taylor Swift?
There is no such thing as a good billionaire. At some point you accumulate wealth more than you can physically use. Where all your needs in every way are met and you literally have no use for it more than hoarding. Theres so much good things you can do in this world instead of becoming a billionaire and yet she is. I will not for a second believe she did her absolute best to help others in need instead of becoming wealthy. I have no personal hate for Taylor Swift, but i do hate the rich.
Also which actually helpful and caring person flies a private yet constantly. Come on, thats just stupid. Ridiculous costs and environmental damage. You could use any other means for transportation and instead use the jet money to fund proper food for US schools or something. Literally anything else is better.
