Probably got some parachute built in.

Deeply discounted, yet with the satisfying conclusion that our external clients get! /s

Yes! There is this Buddhist saying, supposedly some 2,500 years back, “Even if a whole mountain were made of gold, not double that would be enough to satisfy one person.”

You can trace unsatisfied greed in American gazillionaires all the way back to Rockefeller. Before that, you can trace it to Kings, Queens, Emperors, Conquerors. Only external circumstances, societal structures/cultures/etc, keep the greed in check. As soon as we were out of subsistence living, we started collecting, often times just for the sake of collections, sometimes other people’s great misery be damned.

2FAS, Bitwarden, Firefox are my most used FOSS on Android for me.

Cute dogs allowed!

I guess people will cheat and hide it everywhere.

While corporate America focuses on mainly profits, “fighting for human rights” are just empty slogan, because corporate America is already exploiting human misery for profits. For government, it’s going to be “to prevent China from becoming the dominant tech power in the developing world” that’s going to drive this sort of initiative, which most likely will have mixed results or fail miserably altogether. Chinese exports are already driving the non-elite consumer markets in the developing worlds.

You definitely don’t want this stuff to escape into the atmosphere.

True.

• Automatic patch => automatic installation of malware

• Manual patch => unpatched vulnerabilities

Screwed either way.

Yeah, this is definitely a problem with brand new services, especially when the native app isn’t appealing. For example, I use Liftoff for Lemmy. Open-sourced✅ In official Appstore✅ Relatively transparent who the developer is✅ No special permission starting off✅ Relatively few downloads📛 .

When a mobile app doesn’t ask for permissions, it’s definitely less nerve-racking than the more permissive desktop environments where the apps don’t have to be special to do considerable damages.

Spokespeople for NCTA and pharmaceutical company Gilead said that they immediately paused their ad spending on X after CNN flagged their ads on the pro-Nazi account.

Alt-speak: we only care if the media report that our ad placements were next to questionable contents.

At least you did post an excellent meme because of the painful, terrible event.

Yeah, some source say that the raised examples have been fixed by the different LLMs since exposure. The problem is algorithmic, so if you can follow the research, you may be able to come up with other strings that cause a problem.

I still interact with one irreplaceable community. If there isn’t enough subscribed content on Lemmy, I do go back and look at my feed. Most of my interactions are here, though.

There did seem to be a controversy in March about whether or not the word should go.

Haha, if you quickly skipped the “and people” part. Happen all the time. Brain cycles are expensive.
