I'm not sure that lemmy users are different in this from user of Reddit/HackerNews/Facebook/etc.

They are just trying to maintain an image!

As a russian I can say that Putin is definitely crazy. He always was crazy a littlw due to his KGB past, you know, some tendency to overestimate impact of special servies and conspiracy. But I guess that the last drop was a covid pandemic when he sitted alone in bunker for a year in a total isolation. He totally out of mind. I do not think that one should seriously look at his speeches. Also, as a native russian speaker I watched a video interview and can proove that the translation is cirrect. He really said it...

The title is very click bait imo. It is not about any private data. It is a very specific case of deleted fork of the public repository. It is a bug, of course. But it doesn't look so serious as I was thinking when saw the title.

According to the Movember Foundation, a leading men’s health organization and partner of UN Women, two-thirds of young men regularly engage with masculinity influencers online.

While some content offers genuine support, much of it promotes extreme language and sexist ideology, reinforcing the idea that men are victims of feminism and modern social change.

So, 2/3 of young men are risking to become incels, right? Because it is hard to imagine a young girl who is looking for a partner with hyperfocus on his own masculinity as well as a partner, who portraits himself as victim? That is sad...

What android application supports RCS except Google Messages? So, for me it is not about "allowing iOS users communicate with Android users", but about allowing communications between iMessage users and Google Messages users.

Pter Thiel is gay, isn't it? Does it mean, that Epstein sold not only young girls, but boys too?

To be honest I do not see any reason to use Lineage with Pixel while there is GrapheneOS... But maybe there will be some users of it: it is always better to have more free open OS

If someone missed that: it returned a wrong answer even in the demo video.

That is interesting. Why in Germany and Austria far-right (AfD, CDU, OVP) are against but center-left / liberals (SPD, SPO) are in favor, while for example in France and Czech Republic it is opposite (RN in favor, EELV against; ANO in favor, KDU-CSL against)?

“But ultimately,” Trump said, “they have to make a deal (1) because otherwise they’re not going to be able to deal (2) in the United States. So we want them involved, but they have to ‒ and other countries have to ‒ make a deal (3), and if they don’t make a deal (4), we’ll set the deal (5).”

Why Trump uses the word "deal" so often? English is not native for me, so I would like to know, is there some hidden meaning in it?

That is absolutely crazy. I wish the strength to go through that for Alexey Pertsev!

What is crazy for me in this story is how this oil pipeline survived two and a half years of the full scale war with destroyed cities and burned ground...

I'm starting to use more cash for daily spendings. The rise of surveillance pricing is terrible, better to hide qt least some of information from my bank.

For me the problem is more in GPL violation: they distribute blobs under GPL3, user made a request of the source code by creating an issue, but they ignored that request. It is not only about "you have to fix it" versus "just fork it" imo.

Automatic AI-powered screen lock for when your phone is snatched. Theft Detection Lock is a powerful new feature that uses Google AI to sense if someone snatches your phone from your hand and tries to run, bike or drive away.

Does it mean, that "Google AI" will running 24/7 in background, measuring how I use my phone, with an access to accelerometers data and location data?

War criminal is also a pedophile. What a surprise.

I read the whole article and did not find an answer for a very simple question: what are benefits for users? The whole speech is about how we CAN put agents to all the devices, etc. without answering the simple question WHY should we do it. There are a lot of words about how can google and friends use the data for advertising. But nothing about motivation of users to allow it. He is talking about economical reasons but it will work if and only if users will have economical reasons to put agents on their devices. As of today I do not see a lot of usage of autonomous agents outside of the professional work like software development or ms word automation. What are reasons for people to make these agents a part of their life? The whole speech is built on top of the assumption that happens without a word about why should it. Am I missing something?

As I can understand from EFF articles, the problem is not only in MAGA guys and their conspiracy but in KOSA proposal itself.
