Can't be more confusing than the alternates we come up with, like this braided intersection: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmaps.app.goo.gl%2FqpGjRK...
More opportunity for drivers to get confused on right of way or where to go than a roundabout, and we like it that way!
All of the obnoxious advertising stuff sucks - that is par for advertising - but this angle seems particularly terrible.
Use in legal proceedings to present a "victim impact statement" from a deceased person seems super shady and I'm surprised courts would allow it. How is this any better than hearsay? "We're pretty sure this is how they'd feel, or at least how I'd like them to feel."
Maybe the defendant's council can create their own AI representation of the victim going on about the bad day they were having and the road rage incident was really their fault; they would've killed the other guy if possible. And also how much they enjoy Slurm Soda.
you aren't getting an education, you're participating in a fad
Was there a time MBAs weren't chasing the latest trend?
I think with Fight Club the advertising blew it. I don't remember the trailers, but I had the distinct impression that it was really just about the fight club. Those that would have been interested in the story likely passed on it, and those expecting 90 minutes of underground fighting were likely disappointed.
Roku sent me one recently and I decided to try it to see if I could express my displeasure with their enshitification regarding ads. They did have responses to some questions to indicate I wasn't happy with ads, but follow up questions focused on whether the problem was they weren't relevant enough or other things that assume all is fine if they can make the ads "better" for me.
There is no "better". Years back they were my choice independent of services like apple and google. They've since made tweaks to cram in more ads (and yes, recommended shows/apps on my home screen are ads) and are clearly looking to get more in.
I put a comment in "other" explaining there is no level of ads I will be happy with and not being able to disable them, plus their track record of trying to add more, means I will likely not look at Roku when I need a new device. I'm not sure whatever AI summarizes "other" answers for them will capture that.
Forgot to note my initial search turned up:
https://vehicleprivacyreport.c... and
https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mozillafoundation....
which has a car section too, https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mozillafoundation....
Is there a site that keeps track of which products are tracking what, what is "opted in by default" and how easy it is to opt out of and disable it? I'd like to make sure my money goes to the least shitty option, since we hardly get shit-free options in the US with no data privacy laws / enforcement.
I will continue using Firefox as long as I can use uBlock Origin, NoScript and others. The web is not usable to me without.
It's had some bumps along the road but nothing enough to make me switch to an ad company's offering as my primary.
It ruins everything and pollutes everywhere.
Yes, review here: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eff.org%2Fdeeplinks%2F..., particularly the section Use a "Throwaway" Validation Domain.
The parent domain can just set up the acme challenge CNAME for your subdomain and point it at some domain you do control.
I'm in that boat. I've stuck with Synology NASs since a 211j. That one is still running fine for the basic tasks but from drive age and health reports I just started looking into replacements. I have another that will move into the 211j's role when *its* replacement is set up.
I've looked at QNAP, TerraMaster, and other commercial options over the years, as well as setting up FreeNAS/TrueNAS CORE. The reliability, ecosystem (easy SW and apps on devices), security, and the amount of work I'd need to put in had kept me on Synology. I'll need to see if this tips that balance. I was looking at their current models but wondering if they were due for a refresh.
Don't worry, eventually the ad revenue will subsidize a cellular modem in the device so they won't need your help to spy on you.
Lovable should refer them to their law firm, Ligma.
Opt-in, and that preference sticking, is critical. I'm all for Apple taking a different approach from the "if you haven't completely prevented me from getting your data it is mine to use however I want" style generally in use.
I wonder how much of the phone resources/battery life this on device processing will use.
If you don't have time to do it right, where are you going to find the time to do it over?
