Meta knowingly earns 10% of its _overall_ sales from scams. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/06/meta-reportedly-projected-10...

For correctness, the reply to "six watch" was "such much?". But yes literal german translation and still understandable in english.

For all that say Mistral is "at least something" for EU: where are the big EU-owned datacenters where we can run Chinese SOTA models safely, and labs that fork and quantize them on EU data? Wouldn't that be "more somethi

What other sensible option was there? This would be the reality either way.

But that makes you more dependent on externalities, a battery makes you more independent instead.

For which team would be a plain git server enough to manage a codebase?
9.
by poisonborz 1mo ago
Github and other providers before proved that git itself is just a small part of managing code, there's a lot more needed for a full workflow, and it's meaningful for it all to be tightly coupled.

How did this become a boomer opinion? It is proved truth thousand times a day. Not that you shouldn't use third parties - but in this industry you can shrink this exposure to the minimum, and have plan B for anything else.

But pay for who? $50 for a cheaper competitor? $20 for a chinese one? Or just buy hardware and host/co-host for privacy? And to balance the insane spending even your $60-80 example would be hardly enough from that white collar audience

It is the UK/Nordic system which I find morbidly bad. It already assumes you will never pay off the property and you pass it down to family and children, possibly multiple generations. It allows for property prices to go to the moon in

A normal sized plot with a house listed to be torn down on in outskirts of Zurich costs 7mil. A 2 bedroom apartment on the countryside costs 2mil. You will not pay this in a lifetime from 2 good level swiss salaries.

With all the other Xbox layoffs, studio shutdowns, price increases, rumors of pulling titles from Steam, what do they still expect from this brand?

Nowadays I see these sites as nothing else but mining grounds for personal profiling by big tech. Nothing can be a cutesy show-off anymore.

This "no fiddling" could be the single entire counterpoint to the article and hacker culture in general. All the problems stem from "consumer wants no fiddling".

For billion dollar US megacorporations? Yes, it better be, finally (even though this is a slap on the wrist they will pay). Look at China's rules for internet companies there. Or how friendly the US was with TikTok.

It's why they say social credit system is already way more built out in the US than any other part of the world.

Or just buy a $15 dongle instead of the crap interference-laden onboard BT and have problem-free USB passtrough as well.

Besides support, the only correct feeling about this "well that sucks, I'll selfhost or open my own source sharing service with different guidelines". I wouldn't have backed this decision - but lots of smaller communitie

Yes this is extremely unresponsible if so. Fingerprints are legally protected biometric data in most juristictions.

There were hundreds of such misplaced tech hopes, and hundreds that did become true - all those "visionary" quotes of newspapers talking about video calling and remote libraries. Would have anyone advocated a Rust rewrite of Bun b

This would have been a very smart and useful article up until 3 years ago. Now with AI doing this work is a minute, with most if not all considerations baked in, if some strange quirk would need it. Frameworks and dependencies made and repl

Wonder how much of those Waydroid installs are from scam farms. I can imagine some legit uses, but not this amount.

Oh look it's the quarterly "revolutionary battery tech incoming" article.

Why would you do that? Why not use it to create a detailed plan and let it implement by a low cost model?

They no longer need to. They have a core business to finance whatever stupid ideas ad infinitum. When was Oracle or IBM successful at anything new last time? Yet they chum along with 140k and 280k (!!!) employees.

I wish they would better support external image sources - images not uploaded/managed by Immich, just a folder of images it has access to - especially if it's read only. It mostly works, but the UI and logic breaks in a lot of lit

Yes, I think most people have several accounts, or at least a main and a "spare money" account. If you can prove a fraud the law mandates the bank to back it up. In EU bank apps there are often many warnings and popups when author

In EU most people use direct debit. The term "credit card" is almost synonymous with debit. Chargebacks theoretically exists but they are more complicated, I don't know anyone who ever did that.
