I like it, it’s just extra stuff and nothing essential.
It’d suck a lot more if they gated necessary features behind a paywall

Just have a deposit on bottles and cans. You’ll have a cottage industry of people returning them if every empty bottle is worth, say a quarter.

- Comment on Instagram Is Full Of Openly Available AI-Generated Child Abuse Content. 2 weeks ago:
Meta doesn’t care about AI generated content. There are thousands of fake accounts with varying quality of AI generated content and reporting them does exactly shit.

No, but they want to seem cool
And they’ll use Grok to write the code anyway 😂

Apple has a literal 100 billion in cash reserves. They’ll be just fine with losing a billion a year while becoming THE source for premium TV content

But is it profit if I’m asking over my expenses to save for a renovation for example?
How much over my expenses can I ask rent before becoming a bad guy?

Giving homeless people homes != “public housing”
We do consider having a place to live a human right, but that doesn’t mean the houses are especially good or well maintained compared to commercial options.
They aren’t always even the cheapest - those can usually be found from private renters who own one or two apartments they rent.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
…so now being a landlord is ok if you don’t make too much profit?
I seriously can’t keep up.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
“Rent free” so I’d pay the costs and someone could just be there for free? I can’t afford that.

I am from Finland and public housing is shit.
- Comment on Kill your Feeds - Stop letting algorithms dictate how you think 1 month ago:
I want a local LLM filtering my feed(s). So I really don’t need to see Elmo and Donald -related stuff.
Simple word filters don’t work, but with a LLM I might be able to make it work
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
So what should I do with the inherited apartment?
If I sell it to someone, they might become a landlord, which is bad.
Should I sell it to the city? Will they buy it?
Is it better if I gift it to my kid and keep it emtpty for 10 years until they need it? Then I’m not a landlord, because I don’t own multiple properties.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
You didn’t answer my question:
If I inherit an apartment, am I allowed to rent it or should I sell it to not become a landlord?
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Not American.
Our colleges and universities are free. There is no student athlete industry over here.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
Can you give me a serious answer without the /s
If I inherit my grandmas apartment, can I put it up for rent since it’s in small apartment in a college town and there will be takers.
Or should I sell it so I don’t become a “landlord”, which is bad?
Should all students just buy an apartment for the 4-5 years they spend in the city or will the city be the landlord for them somehow collectively? Or is it less bad if the college is the landlord by offering student housing?
- Comment on Fucking leeches 1 month ago:
If nobody is allowed to own more than one property, should everyone be forced buy? Where would renters get apartments from?

And you’ll again inconvenience a human slightly as they look at a pixelated copy of a picture of a cat or some noise.
No cops are called, no accounts closed
- Comment on Google’s ‘Secret’ Update Scans All Your Photos 1 month ago:
Nope.
A human checker would get a reduced quality copy after multiple CSAM matches. No police was to be called if the human checker didn’t verify a positive match
Your idea of flooding someone with fake matches that are actually cat pics wouldn’t have worked
- Comment on Google’s ‘Secret’ Update Scans All Your Photos 1 month ago:
They were not “suspected” they had to be matches to actual CSAM.
And after that a reduced quality copy was shown to an actual human, not an AI like in Googles case.
So the false positive would slightly inconvenience a human checker for 15 seconds, not get you Swatted or your account closed
