  • QBittorrent breaks out of sandbox to commit crimes

  • I remember a time when the gaming community's darling, CDPR, sent lawyers to people's homes, demanding they pay because they pirated The Witcher 2.

    I don't know how times have changes, but it definitely happened depending on when and where you lived.

  • Is everybody just struggling financially right now?

  • No. Financially, I'm in a good spot right now.Most other aspects of my life, I'm struggling hard.

  • Its not typical, but you can get 20 Mb+ jpegs out of an entry level 18MP dlsr. Especially if there's lots of color and at like 5500x3300 resolutions and created with 100% quality preset.I checked my immich and I have some (and larger), but yeah, not exactly typical.

  • Linus Torvalds used AI to fix a Linux bug, and now LLM critics on Linux face an uncomfortable choice

  • I’m in a thread where the entire idea of AI/LLMs has been declared facist, with ZERO legitimate use cases other than facism

    A disappointment I've noticed with lemmy is that its community doesn't often see the nuances in things as if to day its all black or white. Its probably not just lemmy, but all internet communities nowadays. Lemmy just sways towards anti AI more and it really leaves a bad taste when coupled with "if not with us, then against us" mindset.

  • That's around 1700€, about the average monthly net wage here.Its a livable wage for a single person, nothing spectacular, should have something left over after everything is payed. For a household of two earning that, its a bit more comfortable.

  • Chinese video platform Bilibili is going global to challenge Youtube

  • I think the better question is will they be able to buy them all. Buying implies the other party is willing to sell.

    Its true that this information will be harder to access if not indexed properly, but word of mouth is a good backup for that. I didn't find lemmy from google, someone (non corporate entity) posted a link to it somewhere. Now, that 'somewhere' may be corporate controlled and ban certain links but I'd argue that will just split the internet into two (a corporate side and "free" side) with little cooperation between them and I don't think anyone will be able to keep people from either side - as long as the internet remains neutral.

    I think its just too hard to completely control information unless you are a nation state (and even then).

  • I think its the same problem with the press on TV and print form. Rich individuals can buy up all press outlets and control the narrative. Its hard (and restrictive) to broadcast on TV and print. On the internet, at least the freedom to publish and access information has a low barrier to entry. A rich individual may buy one lemmy instance, can they buy them all? Can they buy its successor? The lower barrier and less restrictive nature of the internet (or how it should be) is too fast moving for them to compete imo. All the states need to do is educate people on how to consume media correctly.

  • What I believe is in freedom of the internet. As in everyone should be able to access it and no one should be able to police what is on it. Complete free flow of information. Reddit should exist in the state that it does and lemmy should be there to counter balance it and no nation state should be able to say "no, we only allow one of these". This doesn't undermine any existing legal frameworks mind you. For example: distribution of underage pornography is still a crime almost everywhere and those who operate such sites are fair game for prosecution.

    I get this may be too radical of an idea for some, but I truly believe education is the key to information literacy, not censorship.
