Warning: New Adware Campaign Targets Meta Quest App Seekers
  • So you mean to say the device made by the company known for harvesting userdata for advertising purposes... puts you at risk of being served more ads? Gee... who'd have seen that coming. Malicious or not, it's not really all that surprising.

  • Fight the devs of Fishards, if you win - it goes open source! Lose and it's deleted from Steam
  • Interesting sales tactic, but that still makes this post basically a giant advertisement. Also LOL @ them being butthurt they couldn't make a living off of this a few years ago so they got mad and put it away.

    It's so weird seeing just how much of the internet has transitioned into the "Fuck you, pay me" model.

  • What do you think of this explanation of why not going Open Source?
  • The "ThEy'Re GoInG tO taKe MAh COde!!" argument always comes off in the same manner elitist pricks do. Looking at their page, they've got a Tipping Calculator, and an App Store rehash. Nothing novel or exciting, so what exactly do they have in their codebase they're worried about others seeing/using?

  • Extremely Polite Politics
  • Meh, more inane rules that result in random bans for silly reasons. I mean hey, you do you, but dont expect the general public wandering in from various wide feeds such as the equivalent of all/new to know, let alone respect those rules.

  • Justin Timberlake arrested for DWI in the Hamptons
  • See that's where I made my mistake. I forgot that people are much more invested in others' lives, rather than the events that occur around them. My bad, you're right. It's vital that we know what's going on in Justin Timberlake's life at all times.

  • BBC News - Stonehenge covered in powder paint by Just Stop Oil
  • Were I the "protest type", I'd be getting awfully creative with what can be done to the infrastructure of the things I was protesting. Big Oil? Would be a shame if the refineries were to suffer malfunctions... or the trucks/ships to suffer constant breakdowns...

    But yeah, instead let's go fuck with something that has no relation and only serves to piss people off - but not in the way you want them pissed off.

  • Plasma 6.1: The BEST LINUX DESKTOP
  • At least it's not one of those stupid "reaction face" thumbnails. A clickbait title is easy enough to parse as "not worth my time" but those punchable face thumbnails? Fuck me, the person that started that trend needs to find the nearest running belt sander and start licking.

  • 70% of Cybersecurity Pros Often Work Weekends
  • Oh boohoo, you make 6 figures and have to work some weekends. Get over yourselves or better yet, get a job outside of a cubicle. Every job is going to have it's good aspects and shitty aspects.

    So would you rather work weekends, or up on a roof in the Florida sun?

  • Montreal becomes largest North American city to eliminate mandatory minimum parking spots
  • In the lack of comprehensive public transportation options for everyone not in the immediate city limits.

    Dont get me wrong, Im for the change because I recognize that a change like this is going to suck for the little while it takes things to shift more widely. But I'm also aware that the topic doesn't have a "one-solution-for-all" answer.

  • Meta To Use Public Photos and Posts To Train AI: Here's How US, UK And Europe Users Can Opt Out
  • This AI debate is hilarious. Especially from a privacy standpoint, because if anyone were all that concerned about their privacy, they wouldn't be posting sensitive stuff to things they don't control, if at all.

    Add to that society trends towards an increasing population, societal pressure that frowns on any talk of how to stabilize or even decrease the population, and our ever increasing reliance on various black boxes that we dont even begin to understand, and you can see we're heading in a direction that goes against privacy whether we want it or not.

    Easier to encourage people to make the conscious effort to not post what they dont want public than it is to change all the platforms involved.
