So. Niece and nephew are going for the ol’ aunt. She can take them easily… For now

Oh no. This is terrifying.

I don’t have an issue with win 11 since I disabled the ads. But these news smell like new and unnecessary “advancements”, to make it more marketable. They’ll ruin it completely…

Of course this is true. But I don’t think corporations die that way. More likely they will keep going with this culture, firing more/getting fewer employees, their product will get shittier and shitter, and more competition will fill the gaps, until they fight with one for the monopoly.

All this somewhere near the unsuspecting pirates 😅

I use YouTube too. But I’m not satisfied with the recommendation system - at all.

That’s cool, I’m on Android and PC. But I don’t think I’ll go that way. I want to let Spotify die after these more than red flags.

Oh, I wasn’t aware of that.

For the last couple of years I’ve been “flirting” with Spotify. It would offer me 3 months of premium for the price of one, I would take it and cancel immediately so I don’t forget.

Then lived the happy pirate life for six months or so, and Spotify would come in with the offer. Last time the price was higher but I said what the hell…

Now with this post I was about to uninstall, but I read some comments about services that transfer your playlists, so first things first :))

Nor evidence, for that matter

Robots.txt is a compliance standard afaik, more like an advisory guide. It cannot enforce bans on scrapers, it sets some polite boundaries for the website.

OMG, Blizzard?! How could they?!? -.-

At my old house, mine was NeverGonnaGiveYouUp. Nobody continued it for all the five years I was there, as far as I could tell :(

Seems accurate. Really repulsive.

Generally he gives me the impression that he gaslit society into believing in his success and intellect.

Back? From where? looks around to make sure that in same place

You know, “securities” or… whatever. …

Definitely more. A lurker too. Idk, I feel like I’m less afraid of being judged here.

Last month I had this random conversation with an old lady while on vacation. She mentioned that quite lightheartedly, that “we bought our house just on our salaries, we worked hard back then and needed to settle down”. I wasn’t expecting to have to explain to her that this is not such an easy option for us right now. She seemed genuinely surprised and disappointed at the facts and I didn’t know whether to feel enraged or amused by her true or not ignorance.
