- Comment on Google Photos/Gmail AI data removal 22 hours ago:
Idk…the recent Google cloud account deletion was pretty permanent. The company was lucky enough to have a backup on another cloud, which is why they aren’t SOL right now.
- Comment on Idle Windows XP and 2000 machines get infected with viruses within minutes of being exposed online — legacy OSes compromised by just connecting to the Internet 22 hours ago:
I remember back in the days of broadband being brand new. Comcast insisted that you had to pay for each device that connected to the Internet. Using a router was considered against the TOS.
I do not miss those days.
- Comment on I need to wake up early 1 day ago:
Why does it need to sync with your phone?
What’s the goal of connecting it?
As others have mentioned, I’d look for alarm clocks for deaf people. Many are in the $20 range but don’t do Bluetooth.

And some Muslims and parks.

- Comment on MIT Students Stole $25 Million In Seconds By Exploiting ETH Blockchain Bug, DOJ Says 3 days ago:
I’m honestly very surprised that site is still around. Like digg.
- Comment on [Repost] Reliable alternatives to AWS Deep Glacier for ~5TB? 6 days ago:
Fwiw, AWS offers a one-time egress without charge in response to the EU order to allow people to switch cloud providers.
Once approved, we will provide credits for the data being migrated. We don’t require you to close your account or change your relationship with AWS in any way. You’re welcome to come back at any time. We will, of course, apply additional scrutiny if the same AWS account applies multiple times for free DTO.
So if you’re going to do this for that one time you have to, probably not a big deal.
But if I were you, I’d be prepared to egress, kill the account, and then create a new account.
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 1 week ago:
If it’s still in alpha, then a standard non disclosure should be fine.
A non-disparagement clause is overkill.
- Comment on Prime Video subs will soon see ads for Amazon products when they hit pause 1 week ago:
This doesn’t work for me. Regional hub is 20 miles from me. Two day shipping is now just "free shipping over $35 and takes a week to arrive.
I agree with your other points though. Amazon isn’t the cheapest option anymore. My local Walmart is actually better. I know Walmart is still a shit company but still…better in terms of getting what I need.

The image had me at 100 frosted. I didn’t care after that.
- Comment on What is the Anti Commercial-Al license and why do people keep adding it to their comments? 2 weeks ago:
The CC requires copyright holders to contact companies that violate the license and give them 30 days to remediate.
I highly doubt:
- people who put the CC-BY-NC license in their comment will troll AI bots to see if their specific comments are being used
- those same people can prove to the company that their comment was used
- the company will actually take them at their word and remove their comments from their training data
- even if all of the above are true, can afford an attorney let alone sustain that attorney through the case
- even if all of the above are true, prevail in a court of law
I think people adding the license is fine. It’s your comment. Do whatever. I don’t think it’s as harmful as sovereign citizens using their own license plate for “traveling”.
- Comment on Yep 2 weeks ago:
There was a porn video of a popular French girl saying “Oui” over and over again.
It sounded so funny that I couldn’t nut. Then I did.

- Comment on Forget billions of years: Researchers have grown diamonds in just 150 minutes 3 weeks ago:
There was a study done a while back that looked at what happens when fake contraband (rhino horn in this case) is mixed in with real ones. They found that killing of rhinos went up because people wanted the real horn. The goal of pushing out fakes was to decrease the demand and it ended up with the opposite effect.
I imagine that diamonds will be similar.
Until there comes a point where anyone can grow a diamond in their home, DeBeers is going to continue to exploit people.
- Comment on YouTube Tests Showing Ads When You Pause a Video, Calls it ''Pause Ads'' 3 weeks ago:
The only company that can compete with YouTube is pornhub. People have been begging on their hands and knees for them to enter the hard space. It’s fertile territory, with lots of the kinks worked out. I really hope they spank YouTube in the nuts and give it a go.
- Comment on Microsoft wants to hide the 'Sign out' button in Windows 11 behind a Microsoft 365 ad 4 weeks ago:
Piracy is the solution when what you think you’re buying is not what you’re getting and the company that you’re buying changes the product without your consent.

The tech companies are also forbidden from denying service to any particular government entities.
That includes Palestine, right?
Right?
- Comment on Over 100 staff at Just Cause developers Avalanche have unionised 4 weeks ago:
Man I remember playing JC2 and absolutely loving it. The rampant destruction. The ability to fly, drive, just about anything. And guns…lots of guns.
I thought about getting JC3 but didn’t want to buy a new console (I think)…or I just didn’t have the time anymore.
- Comment on space 4 weeks ago:
A time machine, at its very very core, is a literary device. You wouldn’t bring up this nuance unless it was important to the plot of the story.
It’s like warp drives. The point of warp or any FTL travel is to skip the boring parts. You only learn about warp drives when something goes wrong.
- Comment on VPN by Google One is shutting down for good 5 weeks ago:
I didn’t trust Google enough to torrent but definitely used it on my pixel while traveling. Especially when at relatives houses. I don’t need my DNS requests being logged by their router.
I very much felt like you: it’s a convenient feature-add for something I was paying for. I did not use it for privacy. I used it for convenience.
- Comment on How does South Park get away with trashing identifiable people? Are they sued often? 5 weeks ago:
Keep in mind that a celebrity can send you and me, regular joes, a C&D and we’d likely comply simply because we lack the resources to sustain a challenge in court.
What stops celebrities and organizations from suing South Park creators is likely the opposite: they have money and a legal team.
The same thing happened with John Oliver when he talked shit about some coal mine owner that was notorious for suing people. The mine owner served them from a court that had friendly laws but they were ready. And they had insurance to pay for it.
