Nice job posting a pic with a handful of pixels at best

Fades ,

That was a great speech…..

Where the FUCK was this guy last night Jesus fucking Christ

Ultra-Orthodox Jews block highway to protest Israel’s new mandatory military service ruling ( apnews.com )

BNEI BRAK, Israel (AP) — Hundreds of ultra-Orthodox Jewish men blocked a major highway in central Israel for two hours on Thursday to protest a recent Supreme Court decision ordering young religious men to enlist for military service....

ordering young religious men to enlist for military service.

GET FUCKED, you live there so suffer along with everyone else.

Fades ,

why the FUCK does anyone still use spotify, it's a fucking joke. Unusable without paying for it.

Fades ,

fuck off, it's not that simple. Spotify you can't just play whatever and also you can skip like 5 songs per hour or whatever the fuck. Charging for lyrics is fucking ridiculous and you saying just google it isn't any better.

[email protected]: Are there any privacy issues with keeping camera or mic access on for iOS apps?

iOS is very good about sandboxing and only letting apps run things while the app is open and focused on. It shows green and orange dots when the camera or mic is being used, and none of my use them without saying so and they only do so when they actually need them. If that is the case, are there any potential privacy issues with...

Fades ,

I agree. To your last point, I think you need to add more nuance. Lots of apps can take pics and thus require access same as mic. It’s not always a red flag until it is, which naturally should bring you back to a threat model you are comfortable with when analyzing whether permissions are valid

Fuck Russia and their welcoming of hackers, constantly hacking and ransoming shit.

Over and over, fucking scum: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-28/cdk-hackers-have-ties-to-notorious-russia-based-cyber-gang?srnd=technology-vp

from companies to city infrastructure to fucking hospitals: https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/cybersecurity/us-hospitals-paid-100m-to-russian-ransomware-hackers.html

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-60378009

74% of ransomware revenue goes to Russia-linked hackers

https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy2114

Russia continues to offer safe harbor for cybercriminals where groups such as LockBit are free to launch ransomware attacks against the United States, its allies, and partners. These ransomware attacks have targeted critical infrastructure, including hospitals, schools, and financial institutions.

lmao and here I keep hearing about how MKBHD is SOOOOOO unbiased and has a following because he doesn't give easy reviews

Fades ,

fuck that, you're missing the forest for the trees - we need RIGHT TO REPAIR LEGISLATION.

Fades ,

Every youtube reviewer’s goal is to be popular enough to be a paid shill. It’s money they’re after, not your praises.

absolutely.

There are lot of shills and a lot of sock-puppets that prop them up.

Prop them up? Occam's razor would imply that it is more-so people following trends than it is apple paying shills to get in the trenches and push lies.

they just have same pattern.

Why this isn’t obvious is just idk.

if it's so obvious, surely you can provide some tangible proof? Like I'm confident apple and every other company does this but the way you framed this take it seems to imply that is the main driver and the majority of positive sentiment is just bots or scripts, which is just absurd.

You think Apple is paying all the kids to clown on non-imessage bubble colors? Or is it more reasonable that there is something closer to a hive-mind in regards to what is trendy and popular/a status symbol?

Fades ,

Because that’s all our owners will let us have. Thanks citizen United for hammering in that final nail in our collective coffin

Fades ,

Shit just go back and watch the fuckin STATE OF THE UNION. Where was THAT Biden????

Fades ,

Yes keep restating a PR ad from 2006, nearly TWENTY goddamn years ago. Are you aware Mac OS has changed significantly just like literally every other main OS?

Well, the company said it 18 years ago and it’s no longer true, they must be fucking liars

Fades ,

somethings people don't care about quality. An example, the one time I checked out Temu way back when it first made its splash I bought some targets for shooting... Hard to fuck that up and got em cheap as fuck with that promo deal they do to hook you. Uninstalled it right after, probably not worth it but I feel like that is a common experience. There are items where you just simply can't fuck up so the ultra cheapness works out.

With that said, an obligatory FUCK temu and those like it.

Fades ,

I've only had this issue with clicking on reddit links from google and all it takes is choosing another server, many times no need to even change the location.

That said it's annoying as FUCK, thankfully I don't use reddit

Thankfully steam just put out a new beta for built in game recording

tech has nothing to do with him being a piece of shit, he's not even a technical person it's just the hat he like to wear. Are all the other car OEM CEOs tech bros too?

Fades ,

I agree, for both send and receive since ios can send messages differently (text vs imessage)

Q: “Are we doomed?” A: “We would be, if not for the amazing developments in renewable energy.” ( powering-the-planet.ghost.io )

I wasn't aware just how good the news is on the green energy front until reading this. We still have a tough road in the short/medium term, but we are more or less irreversibly headed in the right direction.

Fades ,

YES we are. Humanity is a cancer and WILL kill itself

Awesome, the nvidia built in one sucks

Ladies and gentlemen, the fat acceptance movement

Fades ,

Trust me, we hate it here in the US just as much.

Fades ,

I hate people who do this, you are scum.

Fades ,

As another Portland resident, FUCK THE PEOPLE WHO DID THIS. This is NOT who we are, what the fuck.

there's only one instance, no need for iterative g

Arrive FOUR fucking hours early??? I've flown A LOT over the years and that is just crazy. Is the extra 2 hours because of the kids or what

Fades ,

Ah yes, war files

Fades ,

Anybody that actually professionally deals with this kind of thing understands just how wrong you are.

Fades ,

How shall the democrats put a stop to this without breaking the rules as well? I don't know if you noticed but these Do-Nothings DO NOTHING, as in DO NOT ALLOW PROGRESS AT ALL COSTS.

but yeah, damnit dems jUsT FiX iT!!!! PrEvEnT iT!!!!!

it's that easy eh? But dangit they just won't :(

Mullvad is another great and reliable VPN, paid but requires no account or sign up, focuses on privacy. You can connect anywhere in the world you like

Fades ,

do you think the signature you include in your posts have a tangible effect?

Do you disagree with this comment? https://alexandrite.app/lemmy.world/comment/9806517

This title is absurd and only trying to push a narrative. Successful utilization of AI doesn't include replacing workers but supplementing them. Yes, the majority of AI applications are round pegs pushed through square holes riding the hype but there is irrevocable evidence of positive impact.

That doesn't get clicks tho so whatever I guess

Fades , (edited )

industrialist and upper-management managers have tipped their hands

you needed AI-capitalists to show you this???

Fades ,

Yeah because they are WELL AWARE of how guilty they are of wage-theft. Accuse your enemy of that which you are guilty of

Fades , (edited )

wahhh, tech bros!!! It's all the tech bros fault!!!!! Not the pieces of shit that misuse and abuse it but those that made it!!!!!!!!

Let me guess, you also want to sue car manufacturers for deaths brought by the things they created. Goddamn auto bros

Fades ,

The Witcher had so much damn potential, I absolutely loved the casting all around not just him (yen was mid tho)

I’m still salty

Fades ,

Wow that was SO good! Need it to be a lot longer…

Fades , (edited )

The words “run a train” in the second panel was too much for you?? It wasn’t even separated or emphasized. Perhaps it was the word “nutted”?

Let me guess, you also censor yourself and say things like f***? Maybe you should get off the internet if you need words hidden away

Fades ,

The apple watch one is stupid, almost everyone I've talked to that owns an apple watch bought it because it's one of the best in terms of collecting metadata and stats regarding your heath:

  • blood oxygen level
  • heart rate monitoring and notifications
  • irregular rhythm notifications (like atrial fibrillation)
  • can capture an ECG in combination with monitor alert/notifs or any time you want
  • fall detection

I could go on and on. The apple watch was a GAME CHANGER for my elderly grandmother as well as my own damn self as heart problems run in my family history.

but go ahead, apple bad and thus anything apple is also terrible and anyone that owns one is an asshole

Fades ,

The problem is that many don’t leave the starting line

Fades ,

Who upvotes these terrible takes???
