100%. The idea that reddit would just permanently delete all those chat messages rather than just archive them away from the public is crazy. Even if they don't directly sell them to advertisers there's a shitload of value for private ML training

Because I want control of my passwords in my head not some software, it's not like a string of random characters is any more secure than one that can actually be remembered

There are a lot of legitimate reasons someone might be a victim of one of these scams that aren't the result of them being stupid, I don't see any reason to encourage this crap

Ya it's a little concerning how quickly people shifted to posting low effort crap in bulk in order to simulate a bigger community

That would be weird yes, luckily my opinions differ from the ones you're projecting onto me

Outcome: Everyone must wear pants

Threadiverse sounds like what Meta/Threads would call the fediverse lol

Damn I've never even heard of that but I wish I had, it seems like it'd be fun to fuck around and see how many recorded responses you can find lol

Team preoccupied with whether or not they can vs team thinking if they should

Is it also racist that China has banned Facebook and many other US based services?

My theory is that he's not actually playing Wolverine and him being in this movie is a big gag, like he's actually playing Deadpool's dad or some other character. I don't think any of the official announcements actually said anything other than Hughes Jackman is in it

Interesting that he would try to use the potential number of views as a selling point while also publicly decimating the reach of Twitter posts lol

Boston has similar hyperspecific billboards directed at biotech companies

I've never used one myself but I've heard talk of various ones either A) taking the public (real) like number and extrapolating the dislikes based on an old like/dislike ratio available for the video from before the dislike removal (doesn't work on new videos) or B) the extension includes a feature where the user can like/dislike the video within the extension and then the dislike number is extrapolated using the public (real) like number and the extension's private like/dislike ratio. In either case the number is not connected to the "real" dislike count that YouTube would have access to internally

Pretty sure those extensions all use some sort of estimate methodology, the dislikes aren't available via any apis or anything

It makes sense to me that people are more worried about potentially any corporation / bad actor accessing their data rather than one

There's no battle pass, no cosmetic store (though there is a $20 "Supporter Pack" that comes with gun skins)

The fact that they already have "a" microtransaction available means they invested a significant amount of time building out the infrastructure required to support them, there is a 0% chance they aren't planning on putting in more once the game gets big

Curious what you use a local version of MediaWiki for?
