Yup. Programmers who have only ever been programmers tend to act like god’s gift to this world.

Fair enough, I respect that.
I don’t think that necessarily means your data will be deleted and not used to train their LLMs, though.
Reminds me of some encounters I had when I used to play RuneScape.
“I don’t think I’ve ever knowingly lied”
And this is how you immediately tell everybody you’re a liar.
I’m surprised that Facebook consistently ranks higher than Snapchat on these charts. I thought younger generations considered Facebook to be for “old people” for just about 7 years now.
The rule of any article asking asking a question in its title is that the answer is always no.
If you’re using a device or network-wide ad-blocker like I do, then you won’t see them. When I try to use Waze on somebody else’s phone, the ads are unbearable.
EDIT: I read the OP and now realize what you mean. I’ll keep this here anyway.
And it has come a long way too. In fact, I just donated since it’s struck me how solid of an experience it’s been.
I love this graphic because it’s a reminder to self-proclaimed “gamers” that mobile gaming has been doing laps around “real” gaming for over half a decade now, with no indication of the trend changing. Yes, mobile games are typically lower quality and more predatory, but it’s undeniable that the average person who plays video games now is just a regular person with a phone.
Again, if you’re already that far down the rabbit hole, anything that tells you, “No, you’re wrong” is going to upset you. That includes a shadow ban, explicit ban, or somebody just telling you that you’re wrong.
If you think I’m wrong and you think shadow bans especially push people towards being alt-right and believing conspiracy theories, then I’d love to see a study that says so because that’s what would likely convince me.
So, you’re suggesting that shadow banning has caused the rise of the alt-right and their conspiracy theories, which implies that they wouldn’t exist without shadow bans.
Or they already exist and are in such a fragile state that even an explicit ban makes them upset (which it does.)
I’m pretty sure anybody who develops anything in the jailbreaking scene can tell you that Apple’s source code is not open to the public.
I think a lot of people buy Macs because they think the only other choice is a computer running Windows.
Oh, this reminds me of the company I’m working for right now.
“You want this promotion? Great! You’re qualified and we’ll have you do this project first to see if you like this work.”
“Really? I have almost no experience with this programming language, but okay!”
Does project
“Actually, you’re not qualified enough. Sorry!”
A week later one of the devs on that team apologized for the situation (not that it was their fault at all.) But still, what BS that all was.
Because they don’t care who owns what platform. They care that they’re different and only some of their friends are on one of them and not the other.
I have a few programs that will reach out to the internet when the user explicitly checks for updates. Feel free to rip apart my amateur projects: https://github.com/Jestzer
