My brain also takes information and creates derivative works from it.
Shit, am I also a data thief?

Thing is, most of these complaints are serious non issues.
I think this community exists only to complain about Microsoft. Not sure I ever see anything else.
The year isn’t 2013 anymore. Bacon isn’t a meme anymore.
Why do conservative “independent thoughts” always result in the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard?
Amazing how often user’s notes disagree with your worldview isn’t it?
I wonder where the problem stems from. Could they all be wrong?
No no it’s the one just before step 3
Myanmar, as a country, has a GDP of 62.26 billion usd.
Google has a market cap of 2.17 Trillion usd and made a profit of $305 billion usd last year.
Google makes more money in profit than moves through Myanmar in a year by nearly 5 times. If Google chooses not to operate in their country because of some law they don’t like, what’s to stop them?
Google definitely has national government level influence, especially considering the pervasiveness of their product suite. Implying that they’re above the law might be too far, but they for sure influence it.
If the most extreme happens and Google decided that some EU law was too much to deal with compared to the gains, a lot of Europeans could find themselves in a position where Google doesn’t operate in their country. Imagine every Android device becoming unable to use the majority of the service they operate on, or the most common browser, search engine, email service, and video streaming services simultaneously being disabled. I can’t imagine the people will be very happy about that.
Yes, the phrase comes from turning a dial to a higher value. Think, for example, of a guitar amplifier. You could “dial up” the volume, meaning you are increasing the volume.
Dial up internet refers to a different kind of dialing.
I haven’t paid for windows since like 2014. The fuck are you guys doing that you haven’t gotten a free legitimate license?
“we used to” No the fuck we didn’t. Humans have always been dumb, shortsighted, and curious. The internet just makes it really easy to see the ones that fuck up enough to be entertaining.
The term has been hijacked, at this point being pedantic about it is moot.
I think there were some ads in the little side widget screen that took 2 seconds to disable so it’s now kind of usable. Anything else?
I expected this to be compared to cash payments but it’s compared to debit/credit card payment methods as well. I often feel like it’s easier to spend cash because it doesn’t feel like real money if I don’t see my bank account go down, lol.
Instance owner: does something they thought would be cool and was likely interesting to implement
Weird lemmy users: tHiS iS wAsTeFuL bS
You being butt hurt about something INCREDIBLY inconsequential like AI art isn’t going to make it go away.
This comment section just demonstrates that lemmy may have a disproportionately large number of neuro diverse individuals who cannot understand a hypothetical situation for the purpose of a joke.
Pull that stick out of your asses, people.
Drove home going 85 and still being passed yesterday. I live in Texas.
If you’re not going as fast as they are, you’re a potential danger now.
My fists are pretty easy to make do illegal things too. Maybe we should start cutting off people’s hands, just in case. You never know when someone might use a finger to click a PIRACY button.
Any time I see a comment that makes me think, “there’s no way someone can be this stupid”, it’s guaranteed to have come from Hexbear.
You just end up paying a premium for your mobile plan at that point. There are much cheaper plans than the ATT one, and for some, you’ll end up paying way less if they buy the phone outright and subscribing to those.
