  • but even just your chats on the phone

    This is gibberish.

    when you say I'm wrong I have to pull the reason out of you with pincers.

    You don't. I've given it to you in plain English.

    yeah, evaluate what it does at the time of the audit

    ...yes? They've also had several third-party professional audits.

  • It looks like at one time you could archive the group but not anymore.

  • blocking scrapers is very easy

    The entirety of the internet disagrees.

  • I know that shitty AI bot all too well. Unfortunately I've tried and failed to get people to leave as well. I have a community of ~20k users. Sad reality is that not only does no one care but they will actively attack you for even suggesting such a thing.

    Facebook knows what they're doing. The only way to close the group is to remove each and every member, one by one, and even if you actually wanted to spend the time actually doing that (I have), they will "detect automated activity" and lock your account.

    I created my own private Lemmy community. Even set up Photon as a frontend. Not 1 single user joined.

    So yeah, we're so fucked.

  • They're using the office of President to advertise products for personal gain. Not just any products but overpriced Chinese garbage. They're also lying about them being made in the US, which is illegal.

  • the phone itself is a REVVL variant selling for $500

    I don't think the phone actually exists, it's just a digital mockup.

  • on today's modern systems framerate has been complicated by the introduction of frame generation technology like DLSS and FSR. If a user has a capable GPU and has frame generation turned on then most software will see the FPS number as including the generated frames. This is correct if you think about just the smoothness of the video and how frequently the monitor is updated. However, this is incorrect if you care about actual game frames, which do other work like process input, handle network updates, perform collision detection for models and projectiles, etc. Frame generation can't help with things like input latency that matter to competitive gamers, but it can make things look visually smoother on todays high refresh rate monitors.

    The Steam Performance monitor will detect frame generation technology and break down both the DLSS/FSR Frame Gen including FPS and the actual game FPS over 1 second intervals. Further, the overlay will show the minimum and maximum single game frame performance within those one second intervals. If you see a single FPS XX number plus the ↓Max↑Min, then your game is not actively using frame generation. If you see a DLSS/FSR/FG number followed by FPS XX ↓Min↑Max, then your game is using frame generation actively and you get both that display frame rate including generated frames and the actual game frame rate. Note that frame generation enabled games will commonly switch frame generation off in menus and cutscenes and that this is normal and correct behavior to see.

  • Yeah honestly this was super dumb. I've seen so many people make the mistake of not turning this on (myself included). Even watched a dude make a whole video about Linux gaming with it disabled. It's so stupid to have it off by default.

  • It potentially gives them grounds for a lawsuit. Probably not but potentially. There's no reason not to explicitly deny permission. They have everything to gain and nothing to lose.

  • I mean there are 300 million Americans so...

  • You're giving me anecdotes and I'm giving you statistics.

  • uh, no?

    Uh, yes.

    the chat app does have access to your messages, as I originally said

    What you originally said was gibberish, but I digress. The chat app is open source, so you can evaluate what it's doing with those messages for yourself.

    1. Bit charitable to say "no one uses it" when they have >300M MAU
    2. Wasn't talking about Threads, I was talking about Meta.
  • how are programs denied that access? how is it that they can't do that?

    Apps are typically given their own dedicated storage volume, and access to any other part of the filesystem requires permission from the user.

    this includes the ability to read the saved passwords from my browser, and to install browser addons without my consent or knowledge.

    WTF kind of computers are you using?

  • If that is insufficient then you are not a typical usecase.

    If you are doing a 200 mile trip, being home for 10 hours, then going out and doing another hundred miles on a regular basis, you are an extreme usecase. If you do this 1 or 2x/year this could easily be covered by spending literally a few extra bucks and stopping at a (presumably existent) L3 station for a few minutes.

    I do the same trips as the rest of you, only on a monthly basis with multiple bikes strapped to a hitch on the back, and in a 200-mile vehicle. I arrive home with very little range (<10%), but over the course of just a few days on L1 I will be back to 80%, without making any compromises about where I want/need to go.

    People want their car to be able to go places when they want to go places

    "People" don't need to travel the same way you do.

    You are talking to me as if you think I didn't own multiple full EVs

    No I am talking to you as if you don't understand the usecase of the vast majority of drivers, and you don't understand the point of the video in the OP. Which is fine, most people don't, that's why he made it.

  • Again, no.
