Or alternatively not taking the mobile operators side - being able to charge £10000 data costs to stream a couple of football matches worth of data shouldn't be allowed.
In what possible way does that price come anywhere close to the costs of the providers in servicing that data?
Outer Wilds is so good. A perfect game for Switch. And the DLC included too, which was also superb.
Pity they can't release a way to erase the game from my memory so I can play it afresh. Half the point of the game (and DLC) is just figuring out what the game is. Because I already know what to do I'd just complete it in about 10 minutes so it's sadly not worth me picking it up again.
But anyone who hasn't played it, please give it a go. It's just wonderful.
An hour of grinding - that they will also sell you powerups to help you skip that grind.
After reading the Jon Ronson book "So you've been publicly shamed" where he interviewed a load of people that were outed for both bigger and smaller 'crimes', no, I don't agree with it. Doxxing and other public shaming can have consequences you could not expect.
Plus, what if you get the ID wrong and dox someone innocent? That happens all the time too.
I like the fact that the article had to refer to the non-Musk site as XSM instead of its full name of 'X Social Media' because it would just make the article too confusing to use the proper name.
That perfectly illustrates the point.
I suppose it also means that if XSM lose the case because X is too generic, anyone can then set up a rival social media company also called X.
They can probably use the same logo too as it's just Unicode.
Yes, you really didn't read anything else I wrote did you. Good to see that Lemmy is just as full of people who feel the need to spout their opinions but don't actually want to engage with anyone else's. Why should people listen to you if you don't want to listen to anyone else?
"I have an opinion and I refuse to hear any other perspectives incase they cause me to think about anything".
We encourage women to use their bodies for sport, for fashion, for art, for drama, for motherhood... who are you to say that they shouldn't by their own free-will do another profession or service?
Sex work is still work. People will choose to do it for a wide variety of reasons. Online they can be completely in control of how they do it and who they choose to work with and for.
You can be a prude if you wish, but sex work is one of, if not the oldest profession out there. It's going to exist whether you like it or not. Let's just make sure people aren't exploited against their wishes and that they can work safely and in full control of their own actions
It's a movie about a theoretical physicist who became a project manager.
I swapped over to https://www.themoviedb.org years ago and have never looked back.
I don't know why people keep thinking that phones are listening in on every conversation just so they can advertise 'Volvo' at you.
they don't need to - we give them loads of data voluntarily based on location data, what we search for, things we buy, things we 'like' on social media..
they'd be stung for huge fines and reputational damage if caught doing it.
it'd take enormous storage and processing power to manage all that data.
Just think about how many things you talk about every day that you've never then seen an advert for (confirmation bias)
my Google Home can't understand me when I'm actually talking directly at it asking it a question, so the idea it can seripticiously pick out words while listening through my pocket is implausible.
All the advances in toothcare seems to be around fancier electric brushes or other gadgets, but regardless we've never been able to move away from 'brush for 2 minutes'. I want some fancy device I just bite down on and it zaps my whole mouth clean in 5 seconds.
