When you add sugar to a dish you do it by the cupful or spoonful but when you add salt you do it by the pinch. It’s definitely true.

Yes. Seriously. And if x wants to operate in the EU then it has to follow EU law.

Consumer protection still exists and what x is doing with it’s ‘verified’ badges is just straight up deception. The only thing it verifies is that that account has paid x money.

Second, relating to transparency in advertising. Hybrid warfare is a major threat to the stability of Europe’s society, institutions and democracy. A major vector for that is propaganda carried out through Facebook and X. Both through fake users and adverts.

The EU should very much take this seriously and I’m glad that they are.

Duplicating the data many times over isn’t progress.

The guy explained the rational he didn’t say it was his personal view that it should be done.

And even if was his view we shouldn’t be down voting things based on whether you agree or not. We should do it on whether it adds to the discussion.

The quality of discourse on lemmy is fucking dire.

Same as if you let go of a kite. It’ll just tumble back down to Earth over some distance.

Have a look at the clock faces there using to Benchmark and it’ll make more sense.

I moved from Spotify to Tidal and am very happy with it. Much better sound quality, good recommendation algorithms, bigger catalogue, pay artists much better. I like it.

Plus they don’t offer shitty content like right wing or adult podcasts or lets-play videos so I can let my kids use it without having to monitor it so much.

Cameron the chancer. He gambled, we lost.

Yeah, they have some kind of formula that looks a bit like this… Something weird, something quasi-sexual, and actual products all mixed in together.

I get ones that always have something that looks like (but on closer inspection isn’t) sex toys or BDSM clothing or nudity. Stuff like that.

But I have to say, it definitely works on me, I’m like wtf is that, and then spend a good 30s decoding what it must mean.

I see no evidence. 🙈

Good luck with that argument lawyers.

This image is incredible.

Reddit has kissed the ring.

I had to use teams with multiple accounts with multiple organisations. Sometimes my account is added to their organisation, sometimes I used their provided account. Microsoft was going for a one sign in approach and the whole thing just totally failed to account for my situation. It never successfully let me switch accounts, running multiple concurrently certainly never worked.

With one situation the work around was to follow the original organisation invite again, reset my password then proceed with my meeting. I’d do this maybe ten times a day sometimes if I had to bounce between different companies.

And all controls are basic as fuck. It’s a business tool that thinks its target market is my grandma. All controls were apple-ified. I’d get a long error code and I couldn’t select it to copy and paste it, and if I clicked off the window the notification displaying the error code would go away, so i’d have to print screen the error code, paste out somewhere, and then type it out manually into Google to try and diagnose. This was a solved problem 30 years ago. Why are we going backwards?

Anyway, rant over. It’s a pos. Slack is light years ahead.

The slave trade is a mandatory part of the curriculum at ks3. You’ve just forgotten. And it’s pretty worts and all as far as Britain’s involvement goes.

I agree with your sentiments though, everyone likes to mythologise their history.

That was first bribes. What about second bribes?

Trump is actually right here. Tax havens benefit themselves at the cost of their neighbours.

Close down tax havens!

Using Twitter and so on for official government channels was a short sighted decision.

Sync for Lemmy is a good app’ if anyone is looking for RIF like experience. Sync

There’s a whole section of law that determines when the police are able to take DNA samples or fingerprints, and more laws for how long they can keep that information.

It’s regulated. And bringing face recognition under biometric regulation is a no-brainer.
