Personally, I would try just a bit of Windex and a fingernail to start. Any other solvent has a chance of removing the printing.

Not to be a downer but... how did people not anticipate this happening? Google is likely going to do everything they can to shut down non-official clients like Piped, since they're sidestepping all of YouTube's revenue streams. Hopefully they don't take the nuclear option and somehow lock down the API and make it much harder to download videos via tools like yt-dlp.

Yes, they allow certain "non-obtrusive" ads by default. Some people might be fine with this, but it should absolutely be opt-in, and their deal with an ad company is the only reason it's the default.

Damn, you'd think that with such advanced technology, they could just automate that job and have the workers move to doing something that isn't a dehumanizing slog.

"Soy boy" is commonly used by MAGAs as a derogatory term to mean a feminine man. There was some rumor about how soy could mimic estrogen in the body (not really true) and so they believe that eating soy products makes men feminine. This is obviously bullshit, but maybe it's somehow spiraled from "real men shouldn't eat soy" into "no one should eat soy"

I find it hard to believe that it's somehow cheaper for them to mass produce two different models of Switch 2 for different regions than to just bite the bullet and make battery replacements easier for everyone.

I mean, even Apple chose to give up the lightning port across all their phones after the EU required it, and they had a much bigger incentive to not change in other regions since they made a good deal of money via lightning adapter licensing/certification.

Hopefully this will eventually trickle over to international models, unless Nintendo decides to burn even more consumer good will than they already have.

Well, yes, as far as our theories go. But we also "knew" that light was a wave that traveled through the luminiferous aether, which permiated all of space... Until we tested that theory with the Michelson-Morely experiment, and it turned out our theories were completely wrong and physics as we knew it was completely upended.

Point being, it's important to actually test our theories instead of assuming they're completely correct just because most of their predictions are accurate.

I mean, they never claimed it was to protect users. It was to protect their user's data from being used without paying Reddit. They didn't like that AI companies were using Reddit content as a free source of training data, they never gave a shit about their users' privacy.

Jesus christ. I really thought that headline was exaggerated, but no, the brain samples they tested actually ended up being 0.5% plastic by weight. That's seriously disturbing, I really would have thought the blood-brain barrier would do a better job of keeping plastics out.

Every physical therapist I've been to has said that stretching cold muscles is actually more likely to injure you than doing some light cardio to warm up before stretching.

Did you just call Ars Technica an "internet rot site"?

Good way to make it obvious you don't know what you're talking about without saying you don't know what you're talking about.

See that em-dash after "years"? That tweet was written by an LLM. No wonder it makes no actual sense, an AI model has no idea that it's ridiculous to berate a weather report, it's just following instructions to reply with "AMERICA GREAT" to anything it thinks is "unpatriotic".

Yeahh this is just community-made DLC. It's got paid content and everything has to be vetted by Microsoft. Really not comparable to traditional mods and the complete freedom they offer.

To be clear, they're trying to get rid of it because oral phenylephrine doesn't work. It's completely ineffective at being a decongestant.

That's true, but this is also ensuring that people can vet whatever they get out of an AI and make sure it isn't just hallucinated garbage

If you still use Amazon, get the CamelCamelCamel addon. It shows you a graph of how the price of an item has changed, so you can see if a sale is really a discount of just one of these fake "sales".

I mean, this sounds like exactly the correct way to go about this. Make it opt-in, and data is only used to find/address problems with the system and not to track your usage habits to sell you ads. I don't have a problem with this.

Ban evasion so you can continue your triad against another user for their completely innocuous post definitely justifies a permanent ban from that single community.

I agree with that other user, go touch grass. You can use that time to do a lot more for animal rights than arguing with random Lemmy users ever will.

This is the philosophy that they use when building spacecraft. Most sensors and instruments on the Voyager craft have been turned off to conserve power, but they continue to function enough to still communicate with Earth.

Even then, anyone can use inspect element to make it look like it says whatever you want.
