Meta is just going to scrub all the Cara content into their AI system anyway. They have no fear because there are no real consequences

I refuse to pay for a subscription where I don’t own the music. CD’s, records, tapes - I still do it. I do need to start ripping mp3’s off YouTube more though - just a matter of time before shit starts disappearing

What about xmms? It was basically a winamp clone, I used to use that on my Linux boxes 20+ years ago

Nothing wrong with how it was done back then, I still do the same today

Let’s be real here, google and every other company sells you out to their advertisers instantly and even double dip and triple dip on your info wherever they can. Apple doesn’t and they take their security seriously. Feds are always crying about how hard it is to break into iphones, telcos are complaining how apple protects it’s users (because telcos have an interest in monetizing those apple users), and the payouts for finding security vulnerabilities for apple products are very high.

Google and apple are absolutely on different ends of the spectrum of user privacy and security

Bro, why you lumping apple in with musk?

Seriously, apple does a spectacular job at user privacy and security, probably second to none.

I hope your sitting… It’s too late and it’s about to get much much worse

If I have to pick, this range and a copy of dracula X and SOTN rather than a probable disappointment from present day Konami

Science and scientific studies help determine what is ineffective or harmful, the problem is the FDA doesn’t have authority over shit plenty of things - a person can go on YouTube and say drinking their special bottled water will cure cancer, and they don’t fall into FDA guidelines so they are free to claim whatever they want, essentially. These woo-woo type cure-alls have gotten into trouble with the FDA because of their ridiculous and unfactual, unproven claims, but that’s usually where the lawyer wordsmiths show up to change the wording just enough to not get into trouble with the FDA.

There is a whole history of pseudoscience as an industry and how it was able to bribe/lobby for its current position in public view (since you even have to ask this question)

Maybe there will be a way to bundle all these streaming services into one package and sell it to consumers at a discount? We can call it Cable2k? Sable? Stream-able? CableAI? Cable-blockchain?

I know your shitposting, but I used to run into shit like this all the time back when I used to try to run Loki software games on Linux back in the day. Within 6 months all the games I had were un-fucking-runnable.

It’s still a thing now depending how crazy you want to get with your system (let’s pretend you don’t run Linux on an x86 system for example - good luck lol)

Your gonna have to back up that sort of statement. I’m not an apple fanboy, but I take security and privacy seriously, and they seem to really be on the consumers side in that regard. Please inform me how they push back against “good stuff” for the consumer

You give Musk too much credit. The fucking guy is a big baby with impulse issues - who happens to have billions of dollars at his disposal. He is running Twitter exactly as I would think a dipshit narcissistic tantrum baby would run it, although dismantling Twitter does coincidentally benefit the top .1% for now
