The fact that wine and beer bottles are exempt from those Nutrition Facts labels is utter nonsense.

If people knew how much sugar and calories are in their drink maybe they would think twice

If you sort by New on /r/place people are asking who is Spez.

This is appalling

It is not. It has been discussed countless times already. The trackers are from the external sites youre visiting through Connect.

There's nothing connect can do about the trackers from the articles you're visiting using Connect.

If you're worried about trackers, you can force connect to open sites using an xternal browser that has tracker blockers features.

I stopped posting to Reddit because frankly it felt like throwing a pebble into the ocean.

I love the smaller approach here

When LastPass got hacked I switched to bitwarden and never looked back. Simple and effective interface, works on all platforms, I love it!

Fuck these guys.

If you have more than two streaming services it now cost more than cable.

We've come full circle, guys!

Watching the video reminded me of the ukulele apology video.

What's with all the terrible jokes throughout the entire thing? That wasn't necessary at all

We have these obligatory online seminars about web security /privacy at work.

Turns out that for some reason, with Privacy Badger enabled, they appear as "passed" instantly. I never saw a single second of these endless seminars.

I tried to tell the IT guy but he couldn't care less and I suspect he didn't even know what Privacy Badger actually is

For the lazy:

The use of "is become" here relates to verbs of motion/transition; verbs of motion would take be while other verbs would take have. There is no such grammatical distinction in English perfect forms anymore.

English began with this distinction, as did sibling languages like German.

The fact that GIF is still a thing in 2023 is baffling

YES PLEASE. I fucking swear it genuinely feels like about 15% of the posts here are about Elon.

People need to ignore this prick and move on with their lives

They would have never done this to a larger manufacturer, but since the prototype was a passion project by two tech enthusiasts they simply did not care at all. It's frankly disgusting.

I could easily imagine people from reddit testing out sync. I am frankly shocked by how mature it already feels.

It's already a full fledged Lemmy app.

Many people pointed this out in the link but yeah, it's much harder to make edits / entries in wikipedia nowadays.

The rules are more strict and you have to respect an increasing number of rules, etc.

I remember when Wikipedia started to get some steam, it was basically a text editor with very basic hyperlink-style formatting.

Minor changes / typos are still easy to do, but frankly I wouldn't know how to start anymore if I wanted to create a new entry.

Oh wow I wish I knew that last week..

AI generated article, or pure incompetence. Or both

Thanks for sharing, this is absolutely INSANE. Far worse than everything pointed by GN.

Swipe on my gboard has definitely gone worse lately. Same for my YT recommendations. I never ever watch shorts, and 90% of my recommendations are 13sec clips.

He talked about this in last week's WAN Show.

He explained that LTT has reached a saturation point in terms of viewership, and the only way to get more views is through quantity.

At least he's blunt about it. Maybe the solution is to focus more on the entertainment style videos and diverge from serious graph-driven content
