I want my winamp skins back

Again, oh no, who could have possibly predicted this, except for everybody who said they didn’t make any changes after the last time.

Hot take, all apps look the same now.

“And you can too!”

That’s exactly right. Users will have to purchase phones on credit like we do for every other major (and sometimes minor) purchase. This doesn’t change the relationship between carriers and their customers at all. It only changes their accounting.

This is the first such prime that was discovered using GPU cloud computing. It’s not just an incredible new discovery, but also a demonstration of what this type of hardware network may be capable.

Breaking news, obvious scam is a scam.

This was pretty useful to me.

For android, I use Feeder, but I’ve also enjoyed Cappy, Neo Feed, Twine, and Nunti. Nunti is a really interesting one that uses a local, private smart algorithm to show you more of what interests you.

That’s surprising. I found it be underpowered as an RSS reader, personally. Although I am really only using it for news - I know some people who use it for videos, etc.

Feedly, Fluent Reader, NewsBlur, yarr, etc.

Thunderbird is fine, but I don’t really want to interact with my feed how I interact with email.

Fair… but recognizable. I meant in the generic sense like Kleenex or bandaids.

There is also liberapay, etc.

Do the eyes glow red if it becomes self aware?

There seems to be this very unpleasant new model of development, where companies start off as nonprofits, often employing open source or permissive licenses. Then at a certain point once they have leveraged that to scale, and they snap back permissions and licenses or close new development. Then they transfer ownership or organizational structure to be for profit.

I think it’s a really toxic and damaging approach that jeopardizes the social contract making open source software possible.

I almost feel like we need a new system for open source that examines organizational structure. An open source project that’s receiving millions in VC should not be in the same category as an open source project that’s funded on Patreon or directly by users.

Short answer, yes.

Finding complex patterns in noisy data is an application that AI is actually well suited for. It still requires human follow-up. Anyway, human experts make mistakes in these areas as well. There is a good chance that a well designed AI could be more accurate.

This happened to me. I honestly thought that it was something I did wrong, until I learned a little more.

I just can’t take all this free speech that’s happening right now

What does this mean? Does this mean they’re trying to do something like Yelp and hold those reviews hostage?

Don’t worry, deceptive sales are still allowed everywhere else…

The data is not centralized in the same way, making it slightly better, but yeah. A lot of the same pitfalls of centralization happen there. The whole system doesn’t operate without the corporate servers in the middle, even though they don’t see or store the data. They have total access to Metadata. The organization could be sold for profit, shut down, change terms, etc.

If security is important, you’re better off with something decentralized like matrix. I’m not an expert, so hopefully, a lot of people here who are smarter than me will fact check these statements, but at least those are my impressions.

Wait, the centralized service that security experts warned for years could be easily compromised because a centralized messaging service is inherently insecure has now been compromised? Surprised Pikachu face
