Ah yes, the classic Microsoft “what you really want is hidden behind a checkbox, otherwise you’ll get shit”.

I once turned that feature on thinking it was an actual backup (copies of my files in the cloud), I remember how angry I was when I found out it wasn’t a backup after all and just removed your files from your computer and only made them accessible online.

I dunno, there’s dead Roman bones in it.

He maybe should’ve known that it wouldn’t work, but does he ‘deserve’ to be in a mental hospital? Absolutely not.

Watch out, the 61 year old chess grandmaster is going to commit terrorism.

I discovered what works with Youtube (for age verification) is sending a picture of an ID with everything redacted but the date of birth, so that the date was the one and only thing visible. That worked! Although it could’ve really been anyone’s ID, lol.

Early results suggest the effort is working. According to numbers from Reddit, free-form ads got 28% more clicks than all other types of ads on the site and saw a jump in community engagement.

Yeah, because users get tricked into clicking and then immediately leave.

I hope that someone at WhatsApp realizes their duty to leak that code to the public.

Clearly because the pope’s too woke.

Most things last very long if stored properly. People tend to not do that, though. Probably why low-maintenance, high-permanence formats tend to keep the best.

I don’t think C:S is a good example, as Paradox has released lots of repetitive, content-lacking DLC that are just the same district-drawing mechanic recycled over and over again.

I suppose it’s all geopolitics.

Russia is allied with Iran, which means they have to support their ally Hamas.

Ukraine is dependent on Israel’s closest ally - the US - for their weapons, so they won’t condemn it either.

I doubt either of them really do this out of conviction.

Olvid is French and Signal isn’t, which seems to be très important.

Damn, the photographer is kinda hot.

If media/publishing companies would just throw the exclusivity model in the trash where it belongs (and let DRM die too), then everyone could pay to see what they want on their platform of choice without this bullshit. As long as that’s not the case, I don’t see myself using these “services”.
