You using the coupon means that they successfully enticed you to return. And most people will buy things on top of whatever the coupon is good for so they still turn a profit

Nerd, truck driver, and kinda creeped that you’re reading this.

Millennials remember those times I’m pretty sure… They’re like 40 years old
Us instance admins appreciate it I promise
Pick whatever looks best. It’s not a big of a deal as we make it out to be.
Fedora KDE is also an awesome choice though if you must choose something else.
It’s THE problem
I’m more of a control-R kinda guy
If BYOD was allowed I’d probably get a laptop with two M.2 drives and keep work and personal on separate OSs on separate drives, both encrypted so they can’t access each other’s files.
Best of both worlds.
Shit I was tired, but I meant 42, counting the top right and left black areas too.
I’m not interested in conjecture I’m interested in facts. Get me some research papers. Get me some court docs. Something.
I count 33 42 triangles, counting black space and outlines made of other triangles.
Cox got caught buying that data, and when confronted about it, Google, Amazon, and Meta all failed to deny that they also buy that data from those malicious app makers
But what is that based on? This paragraph?
A spokesperson for CMG told Newsweek that “CMG businesses have never listened to any conversations nor had access to anything beyond third-party aggregated, anonymized, and fully encrypted data sets that can be used for ad placement.”
I don’t think that explicitly means they had datasets made up of clandestinely recorded conversations in the wild.
third-party aggregated, anonymized, and fully encrypted data sets that can be used for ad placement.
Really could describe ANY possible set of tracking data… Unless you put this quote into a clickbaitey article and strongly imply it’s something sinister.
Someone back this up with proof. Security researchers would’ve noticed this. They’d’ve had to have hacked their way around the microphone permission systems and microphone use indicator (depending on OS) on your phone and upload that data without being caught by security analysts. That kind of bug would probably be worth a fairly decent bounty too.
The article talks about a slide in a PITCH to advertisers. But not a concrete system. Then it goes on to say advertisers bought a dataset from other sources. What dataset? From where? It doesn’t say. Transcriptions from voice assistants? Maybe. But without hard evidence I don’t believe random apps are just recording clandestinely in the background. But people want to believe this so writing shitty unsourced articles with click bait titles and tenuous-if-I’m-generous linking of weak facts lacking entirely in context generates lots of clicks.
The end of the console gaming era?
If you don’t, you’ll pay a lot more to get it back if you ever want to
I mean I find it hard to believe but this level of argumentativeness is silly and toxic. Why would they lie? Maybe they have some edge case or misconfiguration. Maybe they got unlucky and ran into some kind of breaking bug on their specific system. Shit happens.
Interesting. I use an immutable distro (Fedora Kinoite) so basically everything I use outside of the apps bundled with the OS are flatpaks. Other than learning a few things about FlatPak permissions, file locations, etc, it’s been completely painless.
Most banks I’ve used allow SMS notifications for things like deposits and purchases.
The check things is true but I need to use it like less than once a year so eh.
Do we really need banking apps? Fuck it I’ll use their website.
I wouldn’t even mind snap so much but the day I found out apt would automatically use snaps instead for some packages with no easy opt out was a step too far.
Drop it, snaps are dead. All hail FlatPak.
A five gallon BiB of coke syrup is like $100 (maybe less if you purchase at volume like KFC’s parent company surely does.
That can make ~120 large size drinks.
That’s 83¢ per drink in syrup.
A quick look seems like I could get 1000 Styrofoam cups and lids for $120ish (straws are so cheap as to not even need to be included, 0.006¢ per drink) so about 12¢ per drink.
So about 95¢ in supplies, plus maintenance for the machines, CO2, cleaning labor costs… Around $1-$1.10?
But even that sounds high I bet companies like YUM inc get most of these supplies way cheaper than I was looking on restaurant supply sites by buying in huge bulk amounts.
