Spotify’s Plans For AI Generated Music, Podcasts, and Recommendations, According To Its Co-President, CTO, and CPO Gustav Söderström
  • I cancelled Spotify when they started pushing podcasts in my music app, with no way to turn it off.

    Why pay for a service that actively pushes you towards stuff you don't want? Especially if there's alternatives that cost the same and ... don't do that.

  • Waldspirale, Darmstadt, Germany
  • Hundertwasser wasn't an architect, but an artist, and that was kinda his style. Not necessarily everyone's cup of tea, but it also wasn't trying to be.

  • epic ratio rule
  • I mean, I get it. I built the lineage OS Updates for my last phone myself when community support ended, and only replaced it last week after the screen broke. If it hadn't, I probably would have replaced the battery, has kinda gone a bit bad after five years.

    Still ordered a cheap tft screen that fits it (original amoled is too expensive to make sense) to be able to use it as a backup.

    I bought new this time, but mainly because I needed a new phone quick. Also wanted one of the new Pixels with 7 year software support to put Graphene on, so I found an 8a for like 400€.

    So yeah, fuck the throw-away attitude towards perfectly serviceable electronics.

  • epic ratio rule
  • Huh. Only ever used their printers and their ceramic knives.

    Old Android is surprisingly ... nostalgic.

  • epic ratio rule
  • What Android Version is that? I haven't seen a notification look like that in forever.

  • IMPERIVM SINE FINE
  • I want your name in my eyes.

    Could be a song lyric, I guess.

  • How is it that "protecting basic democracy and the rule of law, and not crowning a criminal dictator" wasn't even on the chart?!
  • Never liked that argument. It's essentially "Why, don't you like immigration, dummy? Don't you know immigrants are easily exploited to do hard labour cheaply?"

    I'm not saying it isn't true, especially in the west, but in my eyes, there are much more moral arguments for immigration.

  • I use Debian btw
  • Seconded. Have been running it on both my main desktop and laptop for five years with no issues.

  • She remembers all of it.
  • Morrisey became a real shithead later on, or maybe he just always was one, but I wouldn't neccesarily interpret that one as pro the national front.

    Trump says RFK Jr. plan to remove fluoride from public water 'sounds okay to me'
  • I mean, he's probably gonna say "Yeah, sure, whatever" to most things the crazy people around him propose.

  • Political ad ignites conservative anger over women possibly hiding their votes from their husbands
  • In a functioning democracy, a vote should be secret by default, and that should be the social expectation. If you wanna tell people, sure, but not in a way where your actual vote can be proven.

  • A Pregnant Teenager Died After Trying to Get Care in Three Visits to Texas Emergency Rooms
  • I've always used anti-abortion. Pro-life just isn't an accurate descriptor, and a "pro-life protest", or a "pro-life bill" seem like undeserved euphemisms considering what they want. Outlawing executions would be a pro-life bill.

    Anti-choice is good too.

  • have you ever been given a warning or suspension for using profane language at work?
  • Work in Germany, both in some retail jobs as a student, as well as as a dev, sometimes in rather 'fancy' office environments. No one ever cared, though I only ever cursed about a situation, never a person.

  • come on be honest
  • I think so, yeah.

  • come on be honest
  • Well, I heard Alex Jones was super buff once upon a time, so I wanted to see. When I saw, I kinda wanted to show some friends who'd probably find it funny. And then we arrived here.

  • come on be honest
  • Young, buff Alex Jones

    I can explain...

  • Teens Want Less Sex in Movies and TV Shows, Study Finds
  • They're pretty easy to not engage with, and for me they felt less awkward than almost any other video game sex scene.

    People always focus on the romances, but I feel like you could take them out completely and still have pretty much the same great game.

  • Teens Want Less Sex in Movies and TV Shows, Study Finds
  • Sure, but I get what they mean. Sometimes you have a minority character that doesn't very much seem to interact with the plot, nor has many discernable personality trait beyond being part of a minority.

    Representation matters, but it should be done in a way that makes the characters actual people, not just a tick in a checkbox.
