44 billion for a cringey rebrand. What will they call tweets now? ReXs?

  • Wouldn’t you want to forward Twitter.com to X.com and not the other way around?? It’s not possible someone with this much wealth is this dumb.

  • eXist. It’s just about existence now

    • TIL that In 2005, Sony BMG installed DRM software without knowledge or consent of the user, that included a rootkit which created a security vulerability

    Jump

  • Yeah it made pretty big headlines. It wasn’t so much the DRM but more the way they went about sneaking it onto people’s systems. And even after people were exploiting the kit, Sony did this:

    “Russinovich noted that the removal program merely unmasked the hidden files installed by the rootkit but did not actually remove the rootkit.”

    There are few companies I will never support. Sony is one of them. They have absolute seething hate and disrespect for their customers.

    • Reddit Takes Over Popular Subreddit Amid Moderator Protest

    Jump

  • I see this as a good thing. Now Reddit has to bear the cost. Even if they find replacement volunteers, some employee still has to make that happen. Likely several. It’s costing them. And that’s what the goal was. To weigh them down.

    I was hoping every mod would walk away. All at once. Like you say you can run it all, there you go.

    • Any replacement recommendation for the default image preview within Finder?

  • I really loved The Art of Deception. So many fascinating cases.

    • Kevin Mitnick has died at age 59

    Jump

  • Yeah he talks about it in his book which is a fascinating read due to all the anecdotal stories he injects. Highly recommend!

    What a time to be a hacker tho, back in those times when cops didn’t even know what a computer was lol.

    RIP

    • Who uses web apps instead of native apps?

    Jump

  • No, it just fetches the raw video file. When YT places ads all they do is pause the vid, inject them thru another instance, then resume the original vid. The overlays are handled by YT imbedded player. Together this gives YT the ability to work sort of like a TV channel.

    Regards to the plugin, YT has no idea you’re using it. You're literally side stepping them.
