Unless it’s Kroger, never buy Kroger brand.

Instance blocks and Threads

With debate raging in the Fedi about Threads’ federation, I was having a discussion with another user about the recently implemented instance blocks. They pointed out that, blocking an instance simply hides their content from your feed but doesn’t prevent your posts from being sent to them. Firstly, is this correct? Is this...

Artyom,

There isn’t practically any way of blocking your content from being seen on another platform. It’s an arms race and you’ll always lose. Look at Reddit, they had a whole campaign to kill their API, and most of their quality content is reposted here through bots. If you post something on the internet, there it no way to ensure it doesn’t appear on Threads, where you posted the content originally doesn’t change that fact.

Artyom,

Meta can always profile you from the content you post to the fediverse, and they don’t need Threads to do it. In the fediverse, every upvote, every down vote, every comment, every ban, and everything else is a matter of public record that can be easily queried by anyone without logging in to anything.

Artyom,

Too bad the “do not track” message makes you easier to track on every other website

Artyom,

There are some subreddits I don’t want to just lose and I don’t expect them to grow super fast here. I’m glad for these bots, they give me the choice u/spez is trying to steal from me.

Artyom,

If you rip out everyone involved in the casino planet, you have a really cool dark and surprising twist on the franchise. The only really interesting things in the whole trilogy happened in The Last Jedi

Artyom,

An HDD is also a deprecated symbol

Artyom,

Navy seal isn’t named after seal the animal. It’s an “acronym” for sea air and land.

It’s literally impossible to be offended when the guitar is that good. You wanna know what happens to Money for Nothin when your sound system gets twice as good? it doubles in quality. This rule applies for any sound system ever invented.

Artyom,

“Should AI art be copyrightable?” Is the wrong question. AI is a tool for people to make things. You might as well ask “Should art made in Photoshop be copyrightable?” When you put the two questions side by side, it becomes obvious that yes is the only logical general answer, but the more important thing is the actual process. I can make a drawing of Mario in Photoshop, but I don’t own the copyright for Mario. Meanwhile, I can make a unique logo in Photoshop and I can own the copyright. Simply saying “made with AI” isn’t sufficient for describing the process. For AI, copyrights in their source material and originality of the final product are complicated topics, so the only real solution is that the outputs of an AI will need to be handled on a case by case basis.

Can I get UberEats to stop recommending to "bundle" alcohol from a liquor store to your order?

It just annoys me because I’m not going to order it and I’m abstaining from alcohol. But there’s always some “special deals” being advertised by UberEats on alcohol, as well as meat, dairy and eggs. It’s like they’re really sleazy and desperate to hawk these products.

Artyom,

My uncle was an alcoholic his while life, but in the last few years, alcohol delivery services were what killed him.

I only tip my waiters and my landlords.

Smh at all these down voters who don’t tip their hardworking landlords. Who do you think holds this world together?

Artyom,

Sounds like a good thing. With a recipe like that, you can be confident that everything said there is completely untrue and you should do the opposite of whatever they suggest.

Artyom,

If only there was some way of federating spending in a way that would make private credit card companies obsolete. I’m still confused how no one sees any future in block chain and just say “it’s all a scam”.

Artyom,

Mushroom Men for Wii is what you’re looking for.

Artyom,

Unless you try to import threading.

Artyom,

This meme should be the new standard format to resist standard proliferation!

Artyom, (edited )

I think user agent scrambling is part of privacy.resistFingerprinting, but it’s a controversial feature and breaks a lot of webpages

Artyom,

Use mail forwarding and a password manager, now it doesn’t matter if your accounts are on an old gmail, you can switch services any time.

Artyom,

Coulda fooled me, the content quality has continued to climb, and that’s all that matters. Look at this post, it’s an original meme only relevant to this community, and it’s blowing up.

Artyom,

Made up move-a on a media-luna.

Artyom,

We’ve invented a new type of beetlejuicing

Artyom,

Research question: where are my customers at all times and what are they doing at all times?

Development goal: Design a system to know where all must customers are at all times and what they are doing.

Artyom,

On my TCL TV, it’s impossible to disconnect the wifi after you connect it. The button just doesn’t exist. I had to make a new network, connect to that, and shut down the new network.

Artyom,

They are 1. Slow on launch and on boot. 2. Very opaque and offer little control. 3. They don’t integrate well. 4. Proprietary. 5. Probably most importantly, Canonical has made 0 progress and demonstrated 0 interest in improving issues 1-4.

Artyom,

He’s the military leader of the Genii.

Artyom,

I’m a real Trekkie. My favorite ships are the USS Prometheus and the MCRN Rocinante.

Artyom,

I actually wonder if that’s legitimately their goal.

Artyom,

100% probability based on evidence actually.

Artyom,

The first one was fine, but RDR2 is a transformative experience that will redefine open worlds. It is a masterpiece beyond compare.

Artyom,

Wow, this map fucking sucks at describing native american regions.

He just goes by “family” now

POSITIVE COMMENT ON THE PRESENCE OF !COMMUNITYNAME

StarCraft could return, according to Blizzard president, but not necessarily as an RTS (www.pcgamer.com)

While Blizzard is very much focussed on its big money-makers like its various Warcraft games, from WoW to Hearthstone to Warcraft Rumble, as well as Diablo and the much-maligned Overwatch 2, he’s still open to StarCraft making a comeback. That said, RTS fans shouldn’t get their hopes up. While the series might return, that...

Artyom,

The next Starcraft game will be a MOBA BR because that’s the most soulless thing we could think of and it’s our best bet to boost shareholder confidence.

Artyom, (edited )

I only went tankless because Walter White made it sound cool.

Artyom,

Except the film is from Oppenheimer’s perspective so Hiroshima and Nagisaki aren’t part of it?

Artyom,

His abilities are just oozing with the phrase “Make him OP now for the Battlepass but Nerf him later.”

Artyom,

As opposed to the original MW3, which was a totally unique experience from CoD MW2 because…well don’t worry about that part, it was its own disk!

Artyom,

That’s the most confusing thing I’ve ever heard.

Artyom,

My local shelter has free adoptions. Everyone returned the dogs they bought during COVID, so they just need to get rid of them as fast as possible from the shelters.

Artyom,

I ripped out the wifi chip from my Shark. Vacuum works pretty much the same.

Artyom,

According to what metrics is FreeBSD thriving?

Are we living in a baby universe that looks like a black hole to outsiders? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Our Universe appears to be expanding and cooling, having originated some 13.8 billion years ago in a hot Big Bang. However, it’s plausible that what we see from inside our Universe is simply the result of being inside a black hole that formed from some parent Universe. If the black holes that form in our cosmos give birth to...

Artyom,

I used to think this idea was kinda silly and based on flimsy and handwavey justification, but then I saw a colloquium by a famous black hole physicist on it. Now I REALLY think this idea is silly and made up!

Artyom,

My favorite part is that the Odyssey can store larger items because of the removable back seats. If you need to move a fridge, don’t call the guy who owns a truck, call the guy who owns an Odyssey.

Artyom,

I’ve done mulch in an Odyssey, just lay out a tarp. Most tarps are already bigger than a modern truckbed too.

Artyom, (edited )

Yeah, with the seats taken out on top of a camping tarp. It’s got a WAY lower bed than a truck, so it’s easier to load and unload too.
