It’s 2024, and we still assign significance to streamers and stream viewers. No wonder the world is going to shit as fast as it is…

Yeah that’s true, or at least I wish I could make FF remember my settings.

Yeah I was about to say, just do https? It’s not like getting a certificate is still a big deal in modern times, hasn’t in years.

Me, it makes me a bit sad it’s so low. Reader Mode is one the really cool features of Firefox, but I understand that consuming web content by reading is rapidly on the decline, as a result of the comparatively low information density of video and audio allowing bigger ad space compared to text.

Plus we know from the last 10-15 years how much reading comprehension has nosedived since the proliferation of video content.

Got any more interesting facts about tits, cocks, boobies, peckers or shags?

Uh… what do you think we do when a client doesn’t pay us for a while? We yank their access. That’s how services work, you get a few warnings that you really need to pay or you’ll lose access and then, well, you lose access.

Yes

I mean the corpses in their bright jackets are useful, they tell you about the dangerous spots! 💡

“Quiet quitting” 😂

Because yeah, you only do the job they pay you for, how dare you!

It’s just a legal safety net that they cannot know whether at the moment the route is cycling-safe. So while you can follow their route, real-world situations might differ and hence you need to think for yourself.

Over here they show the same warning for pedestrian and car routes. Which is sad, because it tells me that enough people blindly drive into shit based off of a routing app that they need to tell people to please not turn their 2 braincells off, as much as a difference that is going to make…

Yeah but it’s also far from new technology. Germany is mostly electrified rail, and having BE sets to bridge areas is not uncommon (in southern Germany you also get diesel electric combo units).

Live service, as in: you better watch it live or you’ll have missed it! 😅

It has now been finalized as of yesterday, from what I understand. Previously it was a work-in-progress policy change they were still unsure about, and now it’s decided that this is the way going forward.

I reckon sadly at least part of the reason will be that they are in a partnership with OpenAI, and feeding generated stuff into a GenAI breaks the model, so they need to keep SO as non-AI as possible.

Okay, and how would you address it? The limitation is easy to criticize when you can think in a vacuum about it. But in the real world, we’d need to find a way to change things that can actually be implemented by everyone.

Which usually means transformative change.

Yeah like, they could put the opening hours on the door or something. Or lock the doors to indicate that it’s closed! Or shake their heads! Oh wait!

Why do you have a man-portable Tesla Coil as a plunger?

Damn that’s some impressive stuff! :o

Yeah just casually dropping in there that his dad sets up a go-cart track for the family get-together in the garden, sure.

It’s important to have the right-size flange for each hole, yes.
