Google: Haven't provided your phone number? It'd be a shame if something happened to your email...

Jump

  • I agree. But just wanted to say that plenty of email service providers do not require a phone number.

    Using authenticator for 2FA is also better than SMS.

    • Banksy Encourages Fans to Shoplift From Guess Since Company 'Helped Themselves to My Artwork Without Asking’

    Jump

  • The people that will be affected most are the front line staff who is already working on minimum wages....not the multinational corp

    • Robots Are Already Killing People

    Jump

  • There are lots of click bait articles on the Atlantic. Occasionally they put out good stuff but most are just hyperbolic articles that would look silly in a few years time.

    • What search engines do you use?

    Jump

  • Qwant for work and DDG for personal stuff

    • Google: Haven't provided your phone number? It'd be a shame if something happened to your email...

    Jump

  • At this point I would say stay away from all Google services.

    I even moved away from Gmail. It’s very liberating.

    • Starfield players may get a huge XP boost through sex

    Jump

  • That is because our mainstream culture is one that discourages people talking about sex.

    And is the reason for all the sex negative discourses that people take for granted.

    We need to stop making sex a taboo. More discussion/ normalisation of the topic will be good for humanity, given that it is an essential part of us.

    • I'm so tired of the current state of the internet

    Jump

  • I agree and thats why I end up in Beehaw. There is still some hostility but compared to the world wide web out there, its much better.

    Now I just reduce my time online and try to find friends who share an interest.

    • Where To Find Actually Good Search Engines?

    Jump

  • Qwant

    Try it. It has pretty good results even outside the US and is much more private.

    • What would you be interested in out of a modern games focused journalism outlet?

    Jump

  • People Make Games is a channel that I would call game journalism. Look at their coverage about Disco Elysium, its really great.

    • If you work remotely, your bosses are probably using software to track you. Here's how they'll catch you slacking off.

    Jump

  • Thats why so many employers say they can't hire the right person. You did the right thing. I will also quit in that situation. If an employer don't trust me, what is the point working there?

    • [CLOSED] a Beehaw survey on some policy and the site's vibes

    Jump

  • Because it is easy to just create a lot of fake accounts on an internet forum. That is how Russia and CCP trolls operates.

    Jump

  • Pretty sure if my work place tries to do this people will just quit... Employers are already facing retention issue.

    • Why not Brave and Alternative to Brave.

    Jump

  • Ungoogled Chromium is a great choice. I just hope it can auto update itself. 😅

    Also I once encountered an anti-virus programme miscategorize Ungoogled Chromium as malware. It can be annoying for those uninitiated.

    • Why not Brave and Alternative to Brave.

    Jump
    1. Say no to chromium. Use Firefox and its forks. Even Safari (webkit) maybe a better choice to support a healthy web environment.
    2. Say no to crypto. I hope I don't need to explain this one. If you have to use Chromium browsers for whatever reasons, use Vivaldi.

    • Not counting games that were unfun because of bugs, what’s the most unfun video game that you’ve played and what made it unfun?

    Jump

  • The ending is especially bad... I was rooting for some big reveal but the "twist" is just so bad it completely ruined the game for me.

    • Not counting games that were unfun because of bugs, what’s the most unfun video game that you’ve played and what made it unfun?

    Jump

  • Agreed. I thought I would enjoy it but ended up not liking the game play.

    I want to take it slow and thoroughly examine the papers but apparently I can't because there is a time limit each day. Extremely stressful and unfun.

    • Guide: How to Reduce Google's Control Over You

    Jump

  • What.....their browser recommendation doesn't even include non-chromium browser like Firefox?

    Gab? WTF???

    • What games have you played due to FOMO?

    Jump

  • Elden Ring

    The glowing review and how people say its the best time to try a souls game made me buy it.

    Not a game for me.

    (Just in case people start saying I need to get good. It has nothing to do with the difficulty. I am thoroughly enjoying AC6 now.)

    • Starfield review controversy traces game journalism's orbital decay

    Jump

  • Its more like the problem of Neo-liberalism and hyper capitalism at this point.....

    Journalism dying is just a by-product.

    • PS Plus price hike: We'll all pay for a subscription-based future | Opinion

    Jump

  • Nope. I did not subscribe to PS+ and probably never will unless I really want to play an online game there, which I find unnecessary at this point.
