Most of My Instagram Ads Are for Drugs, Stolen Credit Cards, Hacked Accounts, Counterfeit Money, and Weapons

Jump

  • Aren't those ads personalised to your browsing history?

    • Following Elon Musk’s lead, Big Tech is surrendering to disinformation

    Jump

  • You think the other arm of the US capitalist party doesn't do exactly the same?

    • 85% Of Car Drivers Break 20mph Speed Limits, Reveals U.K.’s Department For Transport

    Jump

  • My understanding is most 20mph zones are simply advisory, as they don't have traffic orders.

    • Following Elon Musk’s lead, Big Tech is surrendering to disinformation

    Jump

  • Maybe a hot take, but allowing capitalist corporations to decide what is "the truth" was always a terrible idea.

    • GitLab plans support for ActivityPub

    Jump

  • Isn't gitlab one of those shitty "open" core projects?

    • What do you think some of the fediverse's primary stumbling blocks are?

    Jump

  • netsplits/defederation.

    You can't just tell someone to register for any server, and they will be able to see everything. So they then have to choose a server, which takes effort, and can cause analysis paralysis.

    • Introducing Proof-of-Work Defense for Onion Services | Tor Project

    • Driverless cars worse at detecting children and darker-skinned pedestrians say scientists

    Jump

  • Cameras and image recognition are cheaper than LIDAR/RADAR, so Tesla uses it exclusively.

    • Driverless cars worse at detecting children and darker-skinned pedestrians say scientists

    Jump

  • The study only used images and the image recognition system, so this will only be accurate for self driving systems that operate purely on image recognition. The only one that does that currently is Tesla AFAIK.

    • Political Compass of the Lemmyverse

    Jump

  • It's 10 times the number of instances that lemmy.ml blocks, if that helps.

    • Apple now endorses Right to Repair legislation

    Jump

  • I'm guessing it doesn't stop them putting DRM in parts and making parts cost more than a new phone.

    • Lemmy/Kbin Reinvestment Phase and Recruiting from Mastodon

    Jump

  • For some reason there seems to be minimal overlap between the two communities and that blows my mind.

    There seems to be completely different cultures IMO

    • Quote replies are normal on lemmy, but controversial on mastodon
    • Full text search is normal on lemmy, but, again, controversial on mastodon.
    • A significant proportion of lemmy users seem to dislike defederation, or at least view it as a last resort, while it seems to happen at the drop of a hat on mastodon.

    At least that's the impression I've got from my limited attempts to use mastodon.

    • Van poof! Dutch e-bike maker VanMoof goes bankrupt, leaving riders stranded

    Jump

  • I seem to remember needing several special tools for changing my bottom bracket, not sure how common that is though.

    • RAF officers ‘must stop exposing themselves to women’ says military judge

    Jump

  • The navy doesn't have that problem ;-)

    • Has anyone defederated your instance? Introducing Defederation Investigator

    Jump

  • Guess I overdid the hyperbole, it probably came across stronger than intended, sorry.

    • Should we decide to have a main fediverse community or should we keep posting everything twice?

    Jump

  • I just sub to them all, there's no limit like on reddit.

    • Has anyone defederated your instance? Introducing Defederation Investigator

    Jump

  • You gave me like five hours to reply lmao.

  • Someone who claims to be a socialist, but who has a pathological obsession with identity politics and dividing the working class, and gives little regard to class consciousness or worker solidarity. Usually has an extreme hatred of patriotism despite patriotic socialism being the official ideology of the Soviet Union. Often defends lumpen behaviour to a bizarre extent.

    Did I miss anything?

    • The Feds Asked TikTok for Lots of Domestic Spying Features

    Jump

  • Given that the genocidal regime has engaged in illegal harassment, assault, and espionage

    Yes, but enough about the US regime.

  • Instead Apple and hardware manufacturers in general should prevent their products from allowing any software company from invading the people’s privacy in such intense ways.

    lol, every intel processor has a backdoor called the intel management engine, it's literally a second processor running minix.
