You can delete a video from your history and it will stop the algo from doing that. But yeah, it’s a really annoying algo.

I call this “cashew mode”

I’m the “tech guy” in my family and friend groups. Every time I need to help someone with something I have this experience and it’s crazy.

Yes, thank you for making my argument. The average person doesn’t have the right use case scenario in their day to day life.

I’ve never had a calculator lie to me. Or hallucinate a number. The AI is a tool argument is getting tired. I haven’t seen it do anything useful at all that helps my day to day life.

Just normalize calling it “clanker” and be done with it.

Guess I’ve purchased my last Sony Console

I can’t even read this because of my VON or an ad blocker. I’m getting tired of Sony.

Fucking yikes

Sorry, I should have seen and responded to this sooner.

For Refused - Rather Be Dead, Liberation Frequency, and Thought Is Blood are good starting points.

For Incendiary - Front Towards Enemy, Bite The Hook, and Echo of Nothing

For Propagandhi - essentially anything in their discography is good music and very politically charged. I find anything in their top songs to be good examples.

Refused

Incendiary

Propagandhi

I appreciate you mentioned Immortal Technique. Hip hop as a genre is generally very political, and doesn’t get a ton of recognition for it.

In a country where we need a complete overhaul on copyright, they want to make laws and codes protected by it?! Lobbyists are a blight.

Mogami cables and Square Plug jacks. Both straight and right angles.

The initial investment of a high quality iron goes a long way. And is worth it.

Audio cables. I’m a musician and audio engineer. Soldering two or three conductor wire to 1/4” phono jacks.

I started making my own cables. Now I only have to worry about my own shitty craftsmanship. And boy is it shitty.

But hey I get cables at less than half the cost. And it’s fun.

I don’t disagree with that at all. In fact as a population I think we need to police ourselves. We should take stronger action towards those in power, as we are the much larger power. I’m just tired of the defeatist attitude. Someone has to enforce the actual rules.

Because we still live in a country with rules. You’re on this site, you must see the headlines daily that read “judge blocks trump…”

If we don’t believe in the rule of law at all then we are truly lost. Attitudes like the one you described above are getting us nowhere.

They really want us to change browsers, don’t they?

From the article:

“The jury found Meta liable for $4.2 million in damages and Google for $1.8 million, small amounts for two of the world’s most valuable companies with annual capital spending over $100 billion each.”

They are also going to appeal. And even if that doesn’t go their way, even if it sets precedent, even if other people bring suits against them…this is peanuts for them. Are they going to stop being predatory of their own volition? No. We need actual legislation and regulations. Not internet id bullshit either.
