- Comment on Mastodon updates terms of service to ban AI model training on user data 1 week ago:
It wouldn’t even make sense for the Mastodon software to have such a restriction… The article title is misleading.

DNS blocking doesn’t work on YouTube ads because they’re served by the same domain of videos.

Yeah the whole AWS ecosystem has a super shitty naming. Everybody knows S3, but what kind of name is that? All the other services are no better
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 3 weeks ago:
I’m afraid it will be fake and manipulated here in the future.
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 3 weeks ago:
It’s interesting to see the different kind of comments here and on Redshit.
Here, people are smart and they are switching to Jellyfin. On Redshit, if people mention Jellyfin in a comment they get downvoted right away.

- Comment on Digg founder Kevin Rose offers to buy Pocket from Mozilla 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, I’m sad the developer didn’t make a fork for Lemmy.

- Comment on French police dismantle widespread paedophilia network hidden on Telegram 4 weeks ago:
I think being a priest lets you be among children for a long time, without their parents present. So I think it’s very tempting for a pedophile to go down that career.

Finally! I couldn’t wait for Pocket to shut down. One useless icon less in my Firefox.
- Comment on Mozilla is shutting down Pocket, their read-it-later and content discovery app, and Fakespot, their browser extension that analyzes the authenticity of online product reviews. 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, me too. I hate that useless Pocket icon in the toolbar. It’s the first thing I disable on every Firefox installation.

Or even the Canadian flag, to make it even more fun for the US people lol

- Comment on Speak American 4 weeks ago:
It makes a bit of sense because Duolingo teaches you the American variety of English and Brazilian.
But still… why?!
- Comment on Speak American 4 weeks ago:
I usually use UK English to have a sane date formatting (the US format is completely retarded), but you have a good idea. I’ll use Ireland from now on.
- Comment on Speak American 4 weeks ago:
See? This is why we shouldn’t use flags to represent languages.
Go to Brazil, and I bet they use the Brazilian flag to represent the language they speak, not the Portuguese one.
Go to Ireland, and you’ll see they use the Irish flag to represent the English language.
In Switzerland, what flag should they use to represent Ladin?
And what about Canada? They speak two official languages.
The correct way to display languages is just their name or they ISO code. Using flags for languages is fundamentally wrong.
- Comment on Speak American 4 weeks ago:
British English is the OG English. They should always use that flag.
