  • Nice.

  • Apple announces more ads are coming to App Store search results

  • Wonder why we need 3rd party app stores.

    And ffs, would other countries help a little, or should the EU just carry your asses every single time big tech tries some shit.

  • China Has Reportedly Built Its First EUV Machine Prototype, Marking a Semiconductor Breakthrough the U.S. Has Feared All Along

    Jump

  • Long time ago that was true.

    Still doesnt mean that they built this well enough yet, but they are building alot of things that actually works right now.

  • Texas sues TV makers for taking screenshots of what people watch

    Jump

  • Lol, it's like this with everything.

    USA is tracking every single movement in your house, and throws a fit when China collects some meta data.

    They just act like the survelliance is bad by blaming a foregin state, then doing something way worse.

  • There exist people who will go through the effort of leaving their home, traveling to a movie theatre, paying for a ticket, and sitting for 2-3 hours for a movie they claim "nobody wants to see"

  • My guess would be three.

    Netflix to buy Warner Bros film and streaming businesses for $72bn

    Jump

  • The price hikes where neccesarry for sure then..

    Fuck big corps.

  • IBM CEO says there is 'no way' spending trillions on AI data centers will pay off at today's infrastructure costs

    Jump

  • Big if, because you expect a US company to win.

  • India orders phone makers to pre-install state-owned web safety app: Report

    Jump

  • These numbers are like proclaiming you won an "election" with 90% votes.

  • Chat Control approved: Certain EU countries will see your private messages. Is yours on the list?

    Jump

  • (it won't be, it's an EU law, so will be the same in all EU countries)

    This is not true btw. It's not a mandatory law, and if you read the news about this the last 3 weeks, you would know that.

    EU laws are not automatically mandatory. That's not how it works at all.

  • Netflix kills casting from phones

    Jump

  • Yeah... There goes my subscription. I'm casting everything to Chromecast on my older TV.

  • Infosys co-founder once again calls for longer than 70-hour weeks - and no, he's not joking

    Jump

  • That's the thing. They wont pay you more. Maybe some people would get the extra money, but all new employees would get the same salary for more hours.

  • WhatsApp "interoperability"

    Jump

  • WhatsApp "interoperability"

    Jump

  • It's not, but they made a WhatsApp API for the DMA. There's a Matrix bridge to WhatsApp.

  • WhatsApp "interoperability"

    Jump

  • Signal wont do it because they cant use their own protocol. You still have to use WhatsApps, which makes it flawed.

    I also hope for good clients, but maybe the rules will change further before there's any real use case for it. Maybe it's too expensive compared to making your own?

  • WhatsApp "interoperability"

    Jump

  • apperently meta gets to pick it, and it is not a public api.

    No they dont, and it's a public modified Matrix-protocol. Why would you lie about that?

    The problem is that WhatsApp can demand third parties to meet very high standards, making it impossible for independent actors to gain access to this.

    You need a pretty well run machinery to live up to the standard, but if they do, WhatApps can legally not deny access.

    If they do, it's in violation of the DMA, which gives you a 10% of all global income in fees.

    These has been used against Meta and Google before, and there's no reason to believe they wont do it again. They actually live up to it.

  • The Supreme Court Is About to Hear a Case That Could Rewrite Internet Access

    Jump

  • Exactly this. Streaming was a thing long time before Netflix, but they made it so damn easy.

    Now Netflix fucked it, and streaming piracy became so damn easy that more people did it than before.

    If they close down piracy streaming/download, guess what. Dark web access, or i2p maybe, will be so damn easy.

    People are willing to do it, if there's no service that's worth it's money.

    Piracy is a service issue. Most of us would pay, if the service is good enough.

    [Opinion] X users in USA don't like that we have an opinion about them? Tough

    Jump

  • Maybe, just maybe, MAGA supporters will one day realize that the reason there's so many foreign bots making propaganda about Trump, is because he weakens the US.

  • Elon Musk Had Grok Rewrite Wikipedia. It Calls Hitler “The Führer.”

    Jump

  • That's a good point. But The Führer is not something positive, and I wouldnt think much about it.

    I'm don't think this was an intentional way to make him sound better. I think we should be much more aware of fact checking what it says, than overusing a historical word to describe Hitler. That might just be an AI thing.

  • Elon Musk Had Grok Rewrite Wikipedia. It Calls Hitler “The Führer.”

    Jump

  • Tbh, from a historical point of view, The Führer was used to describe Hitler. Now in Germany, it's basically only used to refer to him.

    I'm not for deleting history, and I think the context is important. People needs to know why The Führer or "der Führer" is bad.

    A context which I think would have helped in another example would be the N-word. If everyone was really taught the history around that word, I think/hope alot of people would think twice before using it today.

    Or is that only me?
