To anyone who knows more about this: does this actually do anything particularly unique to avoid collecting user data, or is it basically just “trust us bro” and we just need to rely on the privacy policy and so on? It seems like DuckDuckGo but European everything (and with more of an AI focus) from my reading here.
Tbh it’s linked to a ton of things (lots of cancers), so it’d be a pretty big deal in general if they’re able to scale it into something widely usable.
If you weren’t implying that people from those areas aren’t allowed to provide opinions because presumably in this context they’d be slanted against China, then your post had absolutely no relevance. So, why did you bother posting it?
This is kind of proving his point tbh.
I think this is true for all games that access the internet. However, it seems an especially large number of Chinese games that make it to the West require an internet connection to function. Sometimes it makes sense (multiplayer mechanics, gacha, etc.), sometimes it doesn’t at all (some relatively popular single-player RPGs with no online play require a connection just to make a save file, for example).
This is just to say I understand people being concerned if all they see are these Chinese online-required games everywhere when they can also find some random completely offline game made in America, Europe, Japan, etc. just as easily (or even a game with an optional online mode that can be disabled without the game breaking).
If they’ve been living in Canada 30 years, these are overall probably not the sort of people who are gonna use this (unless the political climate in the US changes significantly I guess). Most of the right wingers I know have a very “America is better than Canada, why would I want to be Canadian?” sort of view.
Yeah, obviously isn’t the case everywhere, but I think such extreme temperature ranges are kind of rare (excluding random one-off days that are super cold or hot for whatever reason).
For places that get super cold (like below 0F a lot), generally Celsius probably makes more sense in terms of scaling.
I think it’s sort of useful for weather, since in most places you’re not gonna see temperatures under 0F or above 100F much if at all, so the scaling seems a bit easier. Other than that though, yeah, it’s pretty terrible.
In a recent analysis, Adam Harvey found that among the 999 most popular crates on crates.io, around 17% contained code that do not match their code repository.
17%!
Let me rephrase this, 17% of the most popular Rust packages contain code that virtually nobody knows what it does (I can’t imagine about the long tail which receives less attention).
Given that he lied about the results of the analysis he is using to prove his point, I find it hard to trust anything in this article.
In the analysis, Harvey said only 8 repositories did not match their upstream repos. The other problems were issues like not including the VCS info, squashing history, etc.
EDIT: Also, I just noticed that he called it a “recent” analysis. It’s roughly a two year old analysis. I expect things have improved a bit since then, especially since part of the problem was packaging using older versions of Cargo.
I’m actually looking into this right now. Other than tracking down all the birth certificates and stuff, it seems pretty straightforward.
The bill is C-3, since the article didn’t seem to mention it.
And that’s only 30% lol
Pretty sure they’re actually a bot given that they nearly instantly reply and they’ve replied to almost every top-level comment in this thread.
If not, they’re just a total shithead tbh given that they talk about homosexuality being a choice elsewhere.
I guess you’d be fine if everyone treated you as a lizard and required you to live and act like a lizard. It’s all good because you know you’re not, right?
People can be wrong about literally anything. That is not an excuse to say “fuck everyone else in this group.”
If you extend this argument, we shouldn’t believe what anyone tells us about absolutely anything because they might have made a mistake. Truly a great basis for human society.
The amount of people who detransition is incredibly small compared to the overall trans population, and even then most people detransition because society didn’t accept them and battered them down until they gave up.
I listened to some of the “music.” I’m not sure wtf is going on in his head at this point, and I’m glad I don’t understand.
Ah interesting. I would probably avoid using it that way except for a one-off alias or something.
I may be mistaken, but I believe the built-in email server is purely for aliases, so it’s basically something like SimpleLogin or addy.io combined with Bitwarden.
Not sure if they’ve resolved this, but last I checked you couldn’t reply using the aliases (or maybe that was just their cloud offering?). Everything else I’ve seen has been pretty cool though, so I’m really hoping they succeed.
