Thanks, I wish more people did their own tests and published them like this since marketing for electronics is loose at best

The entirety of "open" ai is complete bullshit. They're no longer even pretending to be nonprofit at all and there is nothing "open" about them since like 2018.

You might get hacked but it's more likely windows or your updated app might add new bugs or ads or some shit. Quality on updates is often terrible.

Probably not the greatest move but users are generally punished when they update software more often than gain anything (usually just the promise of marginally more secure software) so they are implicitly encouraged to avoid updates.

Would be awesome if software was secure on purchase and not sold as a subscription service.

Damn that's just an ad. There is no escape

Many insurance companies won't even insure homes in much of Florida.

If you enjoy base-building at all as well try Rift Breaker. It's basically Diablo with tower defense, great game.

Pocket pair has money. Pal world was a smash hit and sold millions of copies and they could still be buried under legal fees by a behemoth like Nintendo via bullshit like repeated appeals

Edit: in the us at least, not sure if this is suit is in Japan only, seems it was filed in tokyo. See the downfall of gawker for a US example

Lol Lemmy has the funniest ai haters they drown out any real criticism with stupid strawman nonsense

The CDC reports rates pretty well below the general average, at least for 2021.

I think there is an arms race with content moderation that even if the instance is not themselves trying to monetize, clever and unscrupulous ad agencies will slip ads into feeds under the guise of actual content. I think it's a big reason Reddit went to shit even before it went public.

How do you separate a user who innocently includes McDonald's into a post or comment from someone doing so with the intention of driving revenue? (Do you want some fries now?)

It's probably already the case now just the 'ads' are mostly all political shit. Same idea just with a top-down political agenda rather than driving sales. They have all the public fediverse data to base their strategies on already.

I think this issue is just handwaved away with "oh go to a different instance" but we're here for content ultimately and not all instances have what we're looking for. Ad agencies are going to be able to adapt to a changing landscape like that because it's literally their full time jobs/careers.
