  Bergen, Norway. But we have stong competition from the British isles :)

  Bergen :)

  I’m blessed in this regard by living in the rainiest city in Europe. It has it’s downsides, but hey… free water.

  That caught me so off guard I just spit on my phone

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I read the email from Tidal four times and still didn’t believe they weren’t trying to fuck me over. Well, I’ll be damned.

  I agree, but testing with a supervisory driver should be required in case of emergency situations. Both safer and creates job opportunities.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple won’t be forced to open up iMessage by EU⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just to provide some perspective on the Nordics claim, since I’m Norwegian and worked in a phone store for six years. In my experience, practically no one here uses Whatsapp, except for communicating with people in other countries. It’s either Facebook messenger, Snapchat or SMS/iMessage.

  Just to clarify; It doesn’t necessarily mean that your Google account password is compromised. It lists data breaches of services where you used the provided email to register. The password you chose for that service at the time of the breach has been compromised. If you don’t use the same password everywhere, or changed your password after the breach, your other accounts are not compromised.

  That’s so weird. First it was paywalled, then I checked again and it wasn’t. Opened a new tab and it’s paywalled again, but I still have the other tab open and can access the whole thing.

  They are talking about Megaupload, not Mega.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft develops ultra durable glass plates that can store several TBs of data for 10000 years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Some of the same technology was actually also used to create windows.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Actor Stephen Fry says his voice was stolen from the Harry Potter audiobooks and replicated by AI—and warns this is just the beginning⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Hours of monologue with zero background noise is absolute gold for training the model though. You’d have to chop up and edit a lot of footage to get an inferior result with the television footage. Still, it’s entirely possible and it may possibly have been trained on both.
