Own a Roku TV or streaming device? You're about to see a lot more ads on your home screen

Jump

  • Could your tv just phone home via another nearby (neighbors) tv?

    • Researchers confirm what we already knew: Google results really are getting worse

    Jump

  • Aren't all of those sites just more adverts masquerading as information?

    • 'It hasn't delivered': The spectacular failure of self-checkout technology

    Jump

  • It's all cameras and ML face recognition.

    • YouTube is slowing down for users with ad blockers in new wave

    Jump

  • I was/am in the exact same boat, but share the subscription three ways (wife+brother) so the numbers are still somewhat favorable given our music and YouTube usage as a household.

    • Researchers Install Ransomware on Internet-Connected Wrench

    Jump

  • By that logic, isn't all efficiency really just laziness? When does it become productivity or quality control?

    • Cheap and They Don't Snitch: Drones Are the New Drug Mules

    Jump

  • Yeah, comon Dominos! Where is my drone delivery pizza???

    • Did someone tell Steam it's not April 1st yet?

    Jump

  • This was a popular game amongst streamers this year.

    • ...So I Finally Quit Spotify

    Jump

  • Over a hundred? Must have been half a ticket then? Pre-fees of course.

    • [Steam] Which lesser known games have you bought or are planning to buy in this sale?

    Jump

  • Picked up The Ascent and Dead Cells this time around.

    • It’s All Bullshit: Performing productivity at Google

    Jump

  • It's not uncommon in the US for labor jobs, and it's bullshit.

    • The Atlantic: Nobody Knows What’s Happening Online Anymore. Why you’ve probably never heard of the most popular Netflix show in the world.

    Jump

  • Is watching the whole series not enough? For me it's removing the option to choose my own pace. People can choose to watch slowly if they want, but you can't binge if it's not available. I dont even bother with shows until the whole season is out, so it's limiting the engagement for me, but that's my own preference.

  • The only reason they've gone back to slow drip releases is to milk your engagement and subscription.

    • Facebook Is Being Overrun With Stolen, AI-Generated Images That People Think Are Real

    Jump

  • Eternal September

    • Fear of cheap Chinese EVs spurs automaker dash for affordable cars

    Jump

  • What's the incentive? Most people will have to buy a car anyways, so without a different incentive, it's better for every manufacturer to sell you a 60k+ car where the margins are way higher. If profit is the sole motive it's a no brainer.

    • Google announces April 2024 shutdown date for Google Podcasts

    Jump

  • There is value in aggregate discoverabilty via these sites. They also post to all of them not just one. Podcast advertising is dying across the board.

    • Apple has seemingly found a way to block Android’s new iMessage app

    Jump

  • Why doesn't apple make web messaging available like Android?

    • Pluralistic: "If buying isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing"

    Jump

  • Yes, like everyone today, they don't want to get your money once. They want reoccurring revenue and to farm and sell all of your data.

    • Google announces April 2024 shutdown date for Google Podcasts

    Jump

  • Odd, I use the same on mobile and max hub and find they only sync on way. If I listen to one on the hub I have to manually remember where I left off.

    • The UK tries, once again, to age-gate pornography

    Jump

  • Oh man, just so I'm safe what other urls are they trying to block? Be specific, I want to make sure I avoid them all.

    • Thomas 🔭✨ (@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io) 23andMe just sent out an email trying to trick customers into accepting a TOS change that will prevent you from suing them after they literally lost your genome

    Jump

  • Because 25% of your uncles DNA is the same as yours.
