The author of the article has no theory why they might have done this. I’ll suggest that maybe screenshots are used as a way to document obnoxious advertising, and Google would like to make that as difficult as possible.

I must be old - it’s WordPerfect to me.

I’m fairly certain it is only anonymous “on paper”. Behind closed doors, they know where it came from and what is expected in return.

Where do you live that Antarctica is “up”?

Once an end-to-end, encrypted, connection is established between a pair of peers then anything can be sent through it. The establishment proces is generally facilitated by a server of some description so neither peer needs to allow inbound connections. (I’m a long, long way from being an expert on this and happy to be corrected - but this seems like network fundamentals?)

I thought I was doing well with 8 down and 20 up! In my defence - a lot of the stuff I’m seeding is old (10+ years) and I’m the only seed.

Agree the editing looks good, but I don’t feel the template fits. I don’t think the orange one is capable of the realisation and self reflection depicted in the last panel.

It’s a 3 way tie between Back in Black, Led Zeppelin II and Wish You Were Here.

On a Commodore64?

I recently learned this, and changed mine to English only. I still see non-English communities in All. I suspect it’s up to community owners to set the language of their community and a lot don’t?

This argument goes around and around every time someone says ACAB. There is a culture of protecting your own in police forces - it seems to happen all around the world. This culture causes otherwise good cops to overlook actions of their peers that shouldn’t be overlooked. If you let someone get away with something illegal, when your job is to uphold the law, then you are not doing your job and are really not a good cop after all - you’re just as bad as your peers. ACAB is a much simpler way of saying all that.

I’m really dismayed by your political system - I can’t put into words how much it disturbs me. I know it’s a good thing that the Harris Walz campaign is doing well, but all I hear when seeing news like this is how much money politicians are taking from “average” people to give to insanely rich advertising firms, to develop ads, and even more insanely rich media corporations, to run them. It’s messed up.

Wow, that brings back memories. Slackware 3.x was my into to Linux in the '90s.

I tried to just downvote and ignore you, but I’ll give you my perspective instead.

Nature is cruel - lots and lots of animals survive by eating other animals. We are just animals that have evolved to, in most cases, be at the top of the food chain. As a species we have used our brains to abuse this position over the last several hundred years. Slowly (very slowly) we, as a species, are realising that this is wrong and are starting to use our brains to move away from animal consumption. I applaud those of you that have made a commitment to be the leading edge of this change, but I’m not there.

That looks perfect, if I weren’t in Canada.

That is such a fucked up view of the world that I have a hard time accepting that it’s real (even though I know it’s quite common).

No, I didn’t.

I feel this should be a Lemmy capability and not client specific? I’d like to see it too - I feel like I’m somehow disrespecting all these interesting looking communities just because I can’t understand the language.

But there’s no future profit for Sonos in them providing the ability for us to play music we already own from our own library.

There was an unofficial option for rollback - I’m on Android so I went to apkmirror and downloaded the last good version and turned off auto update. This worked for a while, but then they forced me to update - it literally said I had to update to continue using. I’ve seen someone say this wasn’t actually a forced update, but rather keeping all the parts of your network in sync. I have one Sonos device and my phone is the only things that connects to it??
