Yes, I think that’s how it works. The company who hired the ad space pays google, google pays the site that had the ad banner.

This sets a precedent that other countries might follow. Bad.

There are a hundred little things that grind my gears with eternity though. Trying to work through them without switching for now.

The underlying sentiment is that I don’t want someone to profit from my data without fair recompense and far more importantly, WITHOUT MY CONSENT. Everything else is fluff.

I do not want my data to train AIs regardless of whether that data leaves my device or not.

Since this did turn out to be debunked FUD, might be a good idea to edit it in to this comment.

Any idea on android version restrictions?

Lmao no. At best, Notion bought them out to make their own email hosting solution. Worst case, notion bought them out to run the company into the ground to fuck their competition.

Fuck this guy and fuck Notion too.

Hey, I don’t want to discourage your language learning, but duolingo really sucks as a language learning platform. It honestly doesn’t teach you anything about actually using a language.

You might be much better served by using something like babbel, memrise or even better, Rosetta Stone. They are paid options, but well worth the price I think.

Nah, not this rhetoric. Masks were mandatory because of COVID, and that was the right move. Get out of here with your bad-by-association argument. Making masks mandatory then was the right move. Banning masks during protests is not the right move. Both these facts are not mutually exclusive.

When you make such weak, bad faith arguments, you only give fuel for the other side to break down even your valid arguments.

There are plenty of reasons to call UK clowns, but masks during this centuries worst version of the black death (so far) isn’t one of them.

Yep

I am sorry to ask this, and I hope you’ll see it as the curiosity it is.

Is instagram that necessary? I mean, not in the “Dont you have alternatives?” way, but rather in the “Do you need something LIKE instagram?”/“Do you really need to know so much about your friends?” sort of way. I don’t have instagram, and when friends want to hang out or do something or talk, they just call me on my phone. That’s pretty much the only way I know about the stuff thats happening.

Anything else I just don’t really have the interest to know or find out. I can’t see the utility in keeping in such enmeshed, deep contact with people via Instagram. The people I really talk to everyday are on whatsapp and that’s usually where we talk.

For some time now I’ve been wondering if something was wrong with me socially, and your comment put that thought back in my head.

Good old internet anonymous tech support. Love to see it.

People change domains all the time right? Isn’t it just a matter of reconfiguring your servers to recognise the new domain provider and address?

what lemmy client do you use

Says that comment doesnt exist

Wish they would atleast allow payments in crypto.

Damn, I was getting hopeful there for a moment.
