Elon musk: is inventing brain chips

People: oh okay.

Elon musk: wants people to use them

People:

The weird part is, when you actually talk to a Conservative irl, they don’t care about EVs. Sure they might not like them—they might even think they’re a Political scheme or whatever. But they at least understand that there are more important things happening. Politicians failure to represent their user base’s viewpoint in the US is always astounding.

Really cool article—though I really wish more articles like this included sources. Not that I necessarily don’t believe it or something, but things like this have scientific papers backing them up, and it makes me uncomfortable when they aren’t included

Personally, I don’t think a service is in the wrong for trying to protect against ad block, especially when their revenue comes from ads. However I also don’t think there’s anything wrong with adblockers continuing to innovate to circumvent that. I’m rooting for Ublock Origin lol

Thanks for the explanation. From the sound of it I’ll probably stick with passwords—i like being able to copy them, cause I’m often signing in to an application, not a website, etc.

There are lots of reasons it could be, or could not be this. It could be related but not directly, like a lack of sunlight. That could be as a result of screen time instead of sunlight, but that’s not necessarily screen time’s fault—anything could keep you from going outside. The evidence that screens in particular are causing these problems is lacking. Same with social media, though I’d be more open to believing that.

Can I get an explanation on what exactly passkeys are? I already use bitwarden for passwords, is there any good reason to switch to passkeys if that works for me?

My family doesn’t get smartphones until age 12. That seems to work well

Honestly, I have never found anything but a majority of support and kindness when asking questions online.

Wow, Google discontinuing something? Breaking news, unprecedented

Found in NeMo

Guys! He found him!

Makes sense

Can someone please outline the main reasons people are upset with these sites for choosing to do this?

Sorry, I’m out of the loop—what’s the new news? The article linked is from 2023. What happened recently?

Thanks a lot, that helped me understand. Seems like a good idea

Can someone try to explain, relatively simply, what cryptographic verification actually entails? I’ve never really looked into it.

Can someone tell me what IPO is, and act like I’m not an idiot XD

It’s getting easier and easier to use free alternatives to Adobe products.

Having used it a bit more, I can definitely agree on the lag. Crazy bad.

Okay, perhaps not then. Thanks for the reply

I was startled by how dated Zelda 1 is. I know, obviously it’s very old, but people talk about it as if it still holds up today… It doesn’t. Maybe I could try Zelda 2 now.

Odd, I was pretty happy when I got the update. I always thought it was odd that servers and PMs were mixed somewhat in the UI, and hard to distinguish between.

People just don’t like things being different than they were ig.

Or is there another change I didn’t notice that had people bothered?

After asking a friend who’s into this stuff about Plex, they said they tried it and it’s not worth the trouble of setting up. Thought anyone?

How tf had I never heard of plex before

Crazy

I’m surprised no one had mentioned this yet

It’s because there’s an annoying trend of everyone reading the headline and not the article. Drives me bonkers

Just gonna throw the name Innertune out here… look into it :p

Another lost of reasons to use YouTube music. Not that they don’t have the right, or good reasons to do this, but the free experience is much better over here. Especially if you use an app like Innertune

That’d have to be Metroid: Zero Mission and The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker. Two of some of the only games I actually 100%.

Slowly and slowly, it feels like parents are having less and less responsibility—and therefore control—over their children’s lives. Information is not a problem—if there’s something the parent doesn’t want the kid to see it up to them to enforce that, not the government.

As much as I’d like a Linux rise from this, I think it’s not unlikely Google will make a desktop OS (not the half done chrome OS.

As far as Ubers, I’m happy to pay them as much as taxis in tips at least — the people driving them are hard working people who could use it.

But dang, there’s lots of streaming services. The new rise of piracy is not surprising.
