Same story at my company. Everybody’s crying at the lack of skilled labor to justify outsourcing to east europe and india. Couple years later everybody’s crying because of the brain drain and how expensive external ressources have become. It’s a never ending circle of short sighted stupidity.
Well dutch is almost a case of its own regarding difficulty to find dubbed content. Even your regular tv channels don’t dub american content, which means almost everyone in the netherlands is fluent in english: barely anyone needs dubs.
“Can I please use your phone?” and then just start scrolling through their texts and pictures
I don’t understand the need for an ultimatum. This is common knowledge since it’s all over the news. The UN was pretty clear on this according to CNN: https://edition.cnn.com/2023/11/09/middleeast/un-rights-chief-israel-hamas-war-crimes-hnk-intl/index.html
That’s super interesting. So ads are possibly only half as effective in Europe?
100% this. I’d argue though, that the price point is fair. In 2018, Facebook earned an average of roughly $110 in ad revenue per American user according to this article.
Yes. Yes it is. Welcome to 2023.
Ok, I know we love to shit on that “game”, but that video in and of itself left me speechless.
I don’t undestand this comment, could you please elaborate?
The way I way I see it, privacy without anonymity only works if you can trust a service provider. Since there are no trustworthy providers, especially since legislation can cancel any assurances anyone could give you, anonymity becomes the only way to ensure privacy, making it virtually synonymous.
I do use steam so please don’t misunderstand this as bashing, but you don’t own anything on steam either. You rent it for life and access can legally be withdrawn if you act against the TOS. If you’re looking to buy games GOG is the only real option I know of.
Ya, and the added value of OP writing that thought down is absolutely non existant
Like @merde@sh.itjust.works said, several accounts for a tech illiterate person is counter productive. Unsubscribe what you can unsubscribe and then filter rules on thunderbird like you proposed. That’s how I do it with my elderly parents.
Didn’t Stargate have a show inside the show called Wormhole Extreme or something like that? And Peter DeLuise who directed Stargate was the director on the fake show as well.
That is normally considered an insult to the chef or you are pegged as a neanderthal diner.
We go to very different nice restaurants
Not wanting to use apps that are profiling you and your devices isn’t a high level of privacy or being extreme though. It’s just being a normal person.
Yup. Wouldn’t be too surprised if people will think of ways to make them more identifiable in the near future. Something like bright yellow stars. For security of course, nothing devious…
While I agree with you, EU is currently expected to enforce client side scanning on all devices in the EU, basically outlawing e2ee. Where the fuck are we supposed to live that isn’t a fascist hellhole?
Nothing absolutely needed, it’s just a convenience factor. For example you can program them to turn on when your phone connects to the wifi, which will probably be a couple meters from your home. So the light is already on when you get home. Or you can program them to turn on and off at certain hours when you’re off vacationing to simulate a presence.
QOwnNotes, because I can’t deal with electron
It is powerful, but usability is as shit as it always has been. Except for specific use cases Krita is the way to go nowadays. Even if it’s focussed on digital painting, it has almost everything you need for digital editing as well, with a much more user friendly UX.
