Clairvoidance

if it’s mandatory to make an instagram account still, there’s literally no point to use it over instagram

They’re not really backing their claim up though in regards to “related to admins” and “admins are deleting other people’s warnings”.
And as far as I know the torrent has been pulled even.

We’re definitely nowhere near “fuck it” levels, as the article says, we sure can make things a lot more awful if we decide now that we can’t do anything about it anyway.
But maybe we need a stronger example than… Bike lanes… Though I get the point he’s making.

People talk about the enshiftification all the time, how about the LinkedInfication

I’m kinda pissy cause the guy never even responded to being made aware of data like this and that
(i feel confident that he saw my comment cause he replied directly at my first one in the thread)

Browser: Firefox, gonna name stuff i don’t see mentioned yet

‘Multi Account Containers’ + ‘Container Tabs Sidebar’ + ‘Switch Container’ + ‘Temporary Containers’ + ‘don’t care about cookies’ ‘Consent-o-matic’
basically allows you to easily have multiple accounts on websites while also making sure everything stays contained to its own bubble, and anything I don’t have a dedicated container for gets a temporary container that deletes the cookies after a bit in order for me to both not care about cookies and also not get any cookies. at this point mostly because I don’t like accidentally having an account on a non-contained instance

ff2mpv - easily launch videos in mpv, requires a bit of setup

Image Search Options - finding the source of most drawings, spotting which anime a clip is from etc

Yomichan for quick access to locally installed dictionaries (for Japanese in this case)

god CODEX please come back

I’m sorry for the level of discourse I’m about to engage in, but Zuckerberg knows Jiujitsu, I think if Musk had any actual training in any skillful way of fighting we would’ve seen it - the dude probably knows Zuckerberg knows jiujitsu, maybe he was just hoping that he would ignore the challenge? lmao

[Musk] has talked about being in “real hard-core street fights"

dude’s gonna break his back if he doesnt back out last minute

To my knowledge, Empress hasn’t announced wanting to do Dead Space - Though their cracking times had also gotten longer such as 51 days for RE4make
Might just be that Denuvo cracked down and finally hired new people to add more bullshit onto Denuvo figuring out they couldn’t trust the old ones, if the theory about them being a team is true, that’d probably be the end of things
But it could also be like, some laying-low strategy, we can’t say without being in the battlefield ourselves

I mean idk shit she says just sound like such elaborate troll-shit, it sounds like someone’s having fun with it.
literally “it came to me in a dream”

you’re thinking of EMPRESS
Definitely presented as out of spite

Some people speculate that this is the cover-up persona to hide that they’re actually a team with people who have worked on Denuvo themselves, and it certainly sounds more believable than this single woman managing to crack Denuvo in 14 days when every other cracker still in the business can’t.
(but also some people are truly insane who knows)

well that sucks

heresy

I really like Trilium Notes as a Joplin/Obsidian alternative!
I don’t know if this really is as harmful an enshiftification as we’ve come to expect from other projects, it mainly seems to be allowing you to have a “patreon” or “gumroad” type project tied to your actual community. There’s an argument that the centralization is harmful in the long run when everything goes belly-up but this move in a vacuum seems like a logical next step for Discord itself

Well I think it’s kinda hard to imagine a free service that doesn’t do either data collection or advertising or both (read: you are the product), with advertising it makes sense through being a more openly a field that has a lot of money circulating around it

The only other viable model I can personally think of is subscriptions, I find it hard to imagine that only forcing big corporations to pay to use your service, or that having it be donationbased would work with the amount of manpower and serverspace these products from within Silicon Valley typically host where they need millions maybe billions every month until they stop existing

Advertisers are likely to be much more willing to bank their ad dollars with Zuckerberg than smaller rivals.

I’m fine with any most thing that shows you cannot enable harm-to-discourse as much as Musk has. I would sooner them come to Zuckerberg than crawling back to Twitter because it didn’t have an alternative. Twitter is very much a walking corpse right now, but something else coming along to snatch the could-be advertisers secure that it can stay in its fucking pit. (unless various sus governments still somehow see use in keeping it propped up)
