Every time I come across porn I’m not interested in, I block the community. Now 99% of the nsfw I get is the one I like.

Only had the yiff experience for a short period of time.

That’s easy to explain. EGS managed to make everyone hate them just as it started. How do they expect to be profitable if they piss off the entire market?

There are other stores such as GoG that have actual users.

Good old Russian propaganda.

Can the average north Korean read though?

You don’t need to have wired across the room. You can put them through the wall like every other cable. If the wire tubes are not full, it isn’t very complicated. I put my Ethernet wires in the wall.

I doubt Wikimedia streams even 0.1% of what netflix does.

The entire content of the wikipedia fits in a pen drive.

Streaming video is a lot more expensive than text and images.

Prices should go down with scale not up though.

There’s initial investment on the initial servers (and the software), and afterwards it should be a linear increase of server costs per user, with some bumps along the way to interconnect those servers.

The cost also scales per content. Because that means more caching servers per user and bigger databases, and licenses.

So this service has less users and more content, it should be way more expensive. The only reason they are cheaper is because they don’t pay those licenses.

Criminal would just use the communication method that is encrypted, because it will be known as such. Just like nowadays everyone knows that if you want to pirate you use torrent. And if you don’t wanna be tracked you use VPNs and tor.

This will hurt the dumbest of criminals and all the non-criminals.

Telnet? Banned. You now need the EUs approval to use networking software. The only apps that any EU users can use that uses the network interface are those whitelisted by the EU.

That’s the only way that this is enforceable. And still pretty easy to defeat, or are they gonna Linux too? Since Linux comes with the source code, anyone could recompile it removing the restriction.

It’s just absurd.

Did shrinkflation not hit america? Everything in that photo is huge, and it’s not like the car is small. Even while having a huge car as the background, the food looks huge.

The investment in public infrastructure is not only for you to use on your car. Part of it is enabling the industrial growth of the region.

If every company had to build its own infrastructure, why are they paying taxes?

It would be a huge waste to have that much one-time infrastructure.

It’s too late now, but only if they didn’t put so many ads in the first place, less people would be blocking them. They could also make YouTube premium affordable by removing all the features except “no ads”.

Some time ago I would’ve bought YouTube premium, but it had so many features I didn’t want driving up the price that I just didn’t. I instead switched to Firefox and ads were gone again. Good job google, drove me off YouTube premium and Google chrome at the same time.

The youtubers that are on nebula place ads of it on almost every one of their videos.

If you haven’t heard about nebula it’s because:

• You don’t follow any nebula creators.
• You use sponsor block.

Are American roads like one of those bumper car thingies of the amusement parks?

The point is not for people to be angry at china. The point is advertising that you’re gonna blow up the world economy if something happens to you, therefore the world has a huge incentive to defend them against china, before they blow up their fabs.

It’s easily the worst problem of Lemmy. Sometimes one guy has an issue with something and suddenly the whole thread is about that thing, as if everyone thought about it. No, you didn’t think about it, you just read another person’s comment and made another one instead of replying to it.

I never heard anyone complain about the term “hallucination” for AIs, but suddenly in this one thread there are 100 clonic comments instead of a single upvoted ones.

I get it, you don’t like “hallucinate”, just upvote the existing comment about it and move on. If you have anything to add, reply to that comment.

I don’t know why this specific thing is so common on Lemmy though, I don’t think it happened in reddit.

Headline days 25% of electricity. The article says 25% of energy. Journalism at its finest. Which one is it?

When you’re being compared to typescript, you know you’re not the best language.

The war is inevitable. America doesn’t decide if Russia invades Ukraine or not. It can only decide if it will help Ukraine or not.

If america helps Ukraine, they will severely cripple Russia, thus making later invasions unlikely.

I america doesn’t help Ukraine, Russia will just get what they want and move on to invade more countries, leading to more wars.

You can’t just give a flower to the invader, say “peace” and suddenly there are no more wars.
