Aaahh capitalism. This is what business school graduates call “innovation” and “smart”.

But seriously, I’m sorry that happened to you. It’s predatory, abusive, and wrong.

We invent the memory of choosing, about a quarter of a second after we’ve primed our muscles to carry out the choice.

Where can I read more about this?

This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.

That’s a stupid thing to say. I recently had an exchange with him and found out he’s kind of off his rocker, so I wouldn’t sweat it too much if I were you.

This is the correct answer.

Edit /etc/hosts and add

127.0.0.1 example.com

I’m kinda dense, what’s the “only one reason for appointing an NSA director to your board”?

This is a good question but I would just like to point out that 15 years ago nobody would have predicted that the questions we were asking and answering on stackoverflow would be used to train models (and that open source would have it’s license violated so brazenly) and that if you tried to delete your contributions because you didn’t want them to be used to train models you would get banned from the site, so even though adding a license to your comments might be meaningless, it might also be a powerful tool down the line. You never know how it’ll go.

Great things have their start like that, like U.S Cyber Command!

allowing the scraping and evading X’s own anti-scraping technology.

I wonder why evading anti-scraping technology is not treated like bypassing DRM or the DMCAs anti-circumvention rules.

Nobody is really interested in what their step sister is doing, but we don’t really mind finding out, either.

How do you measure time available?

Your username checks out because the difference is a fraction of a cent. What’s more important is who owns the songs made by those musicians, and in the vast majority of cases it’s not the musicians.

The record industry (including streaming) is not worth saving. It’s a parasite.

Is Ubuntu enshittifying?

It’s so vulgar to make fun of someone’s English online. They might not be a native speaker and these kinds of comments can be hurtful and discouraging.

Wow good find. The revolving door in action.

Crazy that the proposed solution to propaganda is banning media instead of investing in education that promotes critical thinking. Or maybe the idea here is “no propaganda except mine”.
