And yet it still has a bunch of ads for PC+ littered throughout it. Despite being grandfathered in, I abandoned it earlier this year for Podcast Republic, which hasn’t spammed me or locked me out of any features I’ve tried to play with despite not having paid them anything.

Just add degrees to any ol’ unit. It’s fine. Unit multiplication isn’t implied, I promise!

I just biked 25 degrees kilometre!

It’s litigation around what a machine can freely use in its learning model.

No, its not that, either. It’s litigation around what resources a person can exploit to develop a product without paying for that right.

The machine is doing nothing wrong. It’s not feeding itself.

Here’s a google prompt for you: “raspberry pi police”

Are they still playing apologetics for the cops? Because if so, no thanks.

I know that for a fact.

Cool, then you should be able to prove that fact, beyond a reasonable doubt, yeah?

without any convictions or similar

Even with a conviction, seems to me like it’s a question of hosting him or not. Demonitising him is Google trying to have their cake and eat it, too.

Capitalism: Where you have the freedom to choose to buy whatever you want, so long as it is what everyone else is buying, too.

And they already upsell power blocks hard. This is not new with USB-C.

Though, I laughed when my wife bought a new iPhone a few months ago and I discovered that the charger block they’re selling is a USB-C block. They fought tooth and nail to keep it out of their phones, claiming it wasn’t good enough, but slapped it on the other end of the lightning cable just fine.

Once you have enough money to meet your needs, all money is is power.

Depends on how one defines “win”.

We coulda gotten more people here. Reddit’s kind of the perfect centralized service to decentralize. Major subreddits have millions of subscribers and mods with years of experience managing large communities. Many of them could have set up their own Lemmy servers and just said “we’re over here now”. You get a few large, but still not exactly mainstream r/all kind of subreddits doing that, and things could’ve been significantly different.

At the same time, there are several ordres of magnitude more people here now than there was before, and the space isn’t showing any signs of dying. That’s kind of a big L for Reddit, as they’re going to continue enshitifying themselves in the months and years ahead, and there’s a legit, if somewhat underground, alternative space for people to go when they’re finally fed up. Now with an insane amount of mobile app support, to boot.

I’ve been waiting for a flexible, two page, tabloid sized e-newspaper for, like, 20 years now.

Yeah, don’t get your hopes up. Heat dissipation and battery life aren’t going to be your friends on this one.

would such a thing be okay to give away free?

No. Assuming they rebuilt the game in a publicly available game engine, they could release whatever they did to that, but the characters are trademarked, and the game level design and any audio they’d have used would be copyrighted. The fact that you didn’t ask for money isn’t a defense that would stand up in court.

That choice that happened in, like, the 90s?

There’s join-lemmy.org, but that’s just a list of instances.

There’s no “main URL” to a decentralized space. There’s only the URLs of participating websites.

Seems like a good place to remind people that the police do not prevent break-ins, robberies, or muggings. They just show up after-the-fact and do little to nothing to get people’s stuff back.

Loving BOTW […] Bought Tears of the Kingdom but playing BOTW first.

You’re in for such a treat.

They lost plenty of people, at least for now.

What none of these articles seem to want to highlight is that this is completely normal retention behaviour. 50% week 1 retention isn’t excellent by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s well, well within the span of what’s normal.

And Threads is still half baked.
