  • Student Teacher Sent a Private Snapchat Complaining About Her Workday. An Hour Later, Police Pulled Up to Her School.

  • That's a great point. If they aren't scanning for things, they likely wouldn't be held responsible, but if they are scanning things, now they are the arbiters of what gets passed on or not.

    ChatGPT had an issue where someone got flagged for being a risk, they assessed it in person and decided not to action it, and then something happened. They're being sued and the Canadian government is getting involved.

    What has snapchat now actively decided not to action, where something bad happens, now that we know they read everything?

  • Should you still buy your next smartphone — or subscribe to it instead? Apple, Samsung … are betting that leasing, subscriptions, and guaranteed buyback programs can make upgrading more attractive.

  • Ive really enjoyed using it, pictures come out really nice. It helps to have something to steady yourself on though if you want the best outcome as your small movements move the window much more.

  • Thata why apple made their new cheap MacBook out of some phone processors but wont let us have a dual OS on the phone if we plug it into a monitor. Because its powerful enough to do that, but we wont buy both if we can.

  • Security updates.

    Its probably about to stop getting them, or already has.

  • Samsung added a 10x telephoto lens and i was excited to finally get that over the regular 2x or 3x of the time.

    Then they stopped making them and went back to 5x.

    This phone still works great

  • Anything that would do meaningful damage to a camera sensor will easily to that to human eyeballs if it refracts or gets reflected.

    I don't think that's true? The lidars on Waymo have been known to damage camera sensors but are safe to the eyes. By damage, like a pixel or two go out, but that's from a random hit. If you did it right you could do more damage.

  • Why cant they rebind them in some sort of ring binder? I guess the answer is money, but that should be possible no?

  • Kentucky Gov Orders McConnell to Give a Real Update or Resign Already

  • I mean it is, but you cant stop the GOP from doing something like this, so you gotta fight back and make them react to your move.

  • Like in chess.

    When your opponent puts you in a bad spot, sometimes putting them in a bad position is the best way to get out of your bad position.

  • SpaceX Stock Plummets to Record Low Near $120 After Seven-Day Slump

    Jump

  • Thats not how puts work. Thats shorting the stock directly.

    A put is an options contract. You can never lose more than your purchase.

    If you pay $5.00 for a Jan $50 strike, you pay $500 (1 contract is 100 shares). As the date comes closer it becomes worth less, but as it approaches $50 or goes below it also becomes worth more. You can make a lot of money on a far out of the money put that goes near or in the money.

    If it was $50 in November that put might be worth $40 (x100) so $4,000 and you paid $500.

    The put becomes worth nothing if its over $50 by strike date.

    Its a much safer way to bet against something than directly shorting.

  • LG to Ban Residential Proxies from Smart TV Apps – Krebs on Security

    Jump

  • I do have a LG TV and I did connect it to the internet a long time ago. Im super annoyed at how they push updates in a way they try to make you press OK as you were doing something else.

    Anyway, after accidentally triggering one, I turned the TV off interrupting it.

    Now it just prompts me to continue it, to which I say no. It doesnt seem to be able to move beyond this now, so I've kind of locked it into where it is for now.
