They kinda don't! It'd be trending videos near your IP locations + your watch history for this browser session

Are there like hobby Minecraft servers not related to Microsoft? I’m thinking like the Library map and such.
Maps aren't servers.
Most servers aren't related to Microsoft, but they also use the default server software which requires proper authentication. Now that Mojang account servers are down you can't log in with them anymore. One'd have to use patched server software that completely turns authentication off or uses an alternative authentication server to allow people without Microsoft accounts to join.
- Comment on Microsoft's draconian Windows 11 restrictions will send an estimated 240 million PCs to the landfill when Windows 10 hits end of life in 2025 8 months ago:
Consumers can also pay for extended Windows 7 updates, of course. I also don't see why just that (consumers can also pay) part is bad and much worse than a stupid requirement to force users to pay.
- Comment on why don't people say mega meters 8 months ago:
But that is like a giant difference in what they usually measure
- Comment on why don't people say mega meters 8 months ago:
SI also does meter instead of cm, so it overall checks out.
- Comment on For those thinking of going back to reddit. Gaze upon this comment section and reconsider. 8 months ago:
dataisbeautiful has certainly fallen. A year or two ago I decided to remove most of the feel-bad subs I've subscribed to and replace them with feel-good ones (to prolong my lifespan, obviously >:) ). You can't really go wrong with feel-good subs much, in my experience. I still occasionally go on Reddit to browse my /sub frontpage, which includes certain niches, and I have also been subscribing to some new subs. My favorite recent discoveries are r/CalvinAndHobbes and r/cpp.

that's only if you subscribe to the most popular subs

It does. Most softwares don't update for it now and security patches are stopped.

The ship minigame actually isn't too hard. You do have to realize that the side panels are radars. However, it requires at least 15 minutes of time at first sight, just for a benchmark?
- Comment on Controversial benchmarking website goes behind paywall — Userbenchmark now requires a $10 monthly subscription 8 months ago:
When there are free slots, users will have to complete a 3D captcha minigame where the goal is to shoot down 13 ships. The minigame isn’t particularly difficult on the surface, but it can get very tedious as there are very few opportunities for users to actually shoot down any ships. We attempted to complete the captcha ourselves but gave up after a few minutes

Maybe "flex X" outputs to stdout and "flex X on the haters" outputs to stderr?
- Comment on I miss the trend of games insulting you for quitting 8 months ago:
For FastTracker 2, which one's quit and which one's stay? BC it feels like if you think Rome wasn't built in a day you take a break from sequencing to take a rest

Audacious only has the playlist and library stuff, from what I can see.
Wining it is still going to stick out of place and the external window plugin thing I want is probably gonna be weird.
- Comment on Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot. 8 months ago:
Well, you could maybe Wine it, but it's still going to stick out of place and the external window plugin thing I want is probably gonna be weird. You may have also confused it with Guarapiranga.

- Comment on Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot. 8 months ago:
I've actually asked about alternatives in the EndeavourOS forum and talked about it there:
I just found out about DeaDBeeF. Unfortunately, it's not what I'll be using.
It is quite a one-to-one match to foobar2000! It has the same modularity and customization. However, the plugin ecosystem is nowhere as big. There's no Coverflow plugin.
And there was a lyrics plugin, forked after an earlier plugin stopped development. However, the developer quit after decreasing passion coincided with the DeadBeeF developer removing the already finished Russian translation in the wake of the Russian war for whatever reason. Needless to say, I am not comfortable with it both feature-wise and ethics-wise.Strawberry and all Clementine (or should I say, Amarok?)-likes don't strike my fancies. They seem to be in pretty good hands, but I just don't like the side-tab layout (plus the aforementioned problem with lyrics). Amarok seems to have switched their design, and since I plan on using KDE either way, if the usage is good enough and I can't find anything better, I'll either use Amarok or Sayonara, which also seems promising.

It has no version for Linux.

You can hide it via normal settings.
- Comment on Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot. 8 months ago:
You can still re-enable it in the taskbar settings. Personally I like asking an AI to do stuff, so I like the Copilot icon in my taskbar, BUT NOT ON THE FREAKING BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER GODDAMMIT

robots.txt is purely textual; you can't run JavaScript or log anything. Plus, one who doesn't intend to follow robots.txt wouldn't query it.
- Comment on Audacity adds AI audio editing capabilities thanks to free Intel OpenVINO plugins 9 months ago:
- I'm not talking about that. What's weights, biases and shape if not a graph?
- By routes, I mean that the path of the graph doesn't necessarily converge and that it is often more tree-like.
- Comment on Audacity adds AI audio editing capabilities thanks to free Intel OpenVINO plugins 9 months ago:
- Specifying weights, biases and shape definitely makes a graph.
- IMO having a lot of more preferred and more deprecated routes is quite close to a flowchart except there's a lot more routes. The principles of how these work is quite similar.

But if you anonymize the data, does it really mean someone has their every action watched?

I never understood the opposition to anonymized telemetry. While adding an entire network stack for it is certainly quite atrocious, there's no problem with the principle I can see.
