Shit I didn’t know this was a problem. What devices are these? I’m assuming we’ve got a few in every home?

Neither of those things are CAN-SPAM enforcement. I’m not trying to move the goalposts on you; that’s what this thread is about.
As for what you linked, the number of robocalls has not gone down and there’s still no real penalty for being one unless you’re terribly egregious (combine both our sources). Neither fiber nor cable have the same protections as phone lines so it doesn’t really matter. All the FCC has done is deregulated the transition, which is a reduction in consumer protection. Remember how we’ve already been charged for the fiber upgrade? Carr just made it easier for us to pay for it yet again.


Right now the FCC is under regulatory capture and wants to deregulate as much as possible. It’s very excited to approve big mergers and attack journalism. Despite robocalls being a huge issue, they continue to do fuck to really combat them. I don’t know that the FCC did anything with CAN-SPAM in 2025 and given the pervasive capitulation to broadband providers (aside from the squashed and panned attempt at net neutrality) , especially under this administration and its previous iteration, it is not reasonable to assume the FCC gives a shit about cable companies spamming you.


Either everyone knows everything all the time about tech or you should reconsider your approach to sharing solutions.


The FCC has stopped doing stuff about this.


Please don’t take me as a GH shill because I’m not. I’m not sure we read the same email given your projects. Actions on GH runners are dropping in cost and there’s a new fractional cost for self-hosted. For the average user, especially those on GH runners, costs are going down. Looking at your repo, you haven’t run anything since July. Your workflow files use GH runners. Nothing in your history suggests you’re leaving the free tier so I don’t get this FUD at all. General Microsoft hate? Fuck yeah. Shitty GH service? Fuck yeah. Plenty of reasons to dunk but this was not one of them. M


I highly recommend the Scuf Nomad. It’s a bit more expensive than other options. I think it’s worth it. I play a bunch of games on my phone and can’t be happier. In the past I used GameSir products and think those are pretty rad for budget options.
I do not recommend SteelSeries at fucking all. They used to ship the Stratus with known issues. Support would actively admit the problem. Sometimes you could get a replacement. Sometimes you couldn’t. I have no idea if their newer products are better; I have stopped buying them since then.


The current administration believes the same stuff. She left with the admin change yet agrees with things like the current admin’s approach to AI regulation.
You’re saying the same thing as the top of the thread. All of this is for now. At some point it could be advantageous for Apple to stop resisting US demands. It is important to understand and prepare for that while also accepting, for now, Apple provides the most corporate privacy of the corporate privacy options in the US.


My initial take on the sticker was the whole “fire exit git commit git push;” I do see this other perspective now
We’re just quitting without writing? Living very dangerously aren’t we?
It’s still just another type of ID so you can do lookups on it. Nothing would change. UUIDs are used all the time.


Pete Hines didn’t fucking properly value developers. I don’t buy this shit at fucking all. Mandatory crunch, shitty benefits, and terrible consumer practices were par for the course during his whole tenure. Since I don’t see him out on the union front donating all his fucking blood money this is just a different way of saying “Pete Hines and other executives aren’t making enough money off residuals from a subscription model.” Bethesda (and ZeniMax) was a shitty place to work that conned devs into getting fucked because Bethesda. He can fuck right off with this shit.
Devs haven’t been properly valued in decades and subscription models are nothing new.


Don’t forget the ability of major actors to rewrite history, making these blockchains incredibly centralized and absolutely mutable. If someone with enough clout decides to roll something back, it happens.
I assume this is Poe’s Law in action. Elon historically doesn’t understand shit about tech so the commenter is just highlighting something that’s been GA for other tools for years.
The current thread is about AI slop, not DMS. You helped create the branch we’re on. You said “people on Lemmy can’t tell slop from useful info.” I said “this is AI slop because the sources don’t match,” assuming that I wouldn’t have to explain the hallucinations (fabrications is a bit better here) because that usually comes with slop. Since the current thread is about whether or not slop is meaningful, I have no idea what you added by saying “hey I attacked someone for not liking AI then attacked someone else for a refutation of the AI that I was white knighting.”
Given the sources don’t really back up the content, I think it’s safe to say this is slop. You should probably proof AI slop before you white knight it next time.


Can you help me understand which political petitions meant to document real constituent desires don’t require doxxing yourself? I don’t believe I’ve ever participated in any citizens initiative that didn’t require personal information.
Yes but we’re talking about zsh. I know zsh wasn’t on TiVo.
