How do you do this in a privacy preserving way?

There is a reason why they won't do it. They are selling a narrative. There is a lot of money to be made here with this narrative and proving that artificial intelligence is NOT intelligent won't help sell that narrative.

I was going to say you couldn't pay me to use Notes again. I went to the link you posted and here was on the top carousel something interesting... So domini/notes is under active development, by a witch company no less.
I just have a terrible experience using Notes. I have either somehow erased or locked away most of this memory but I remember getting back to Outlook with a job at a different place and thinking I'll never bad mouth excel again. Yes, notes was that terrible for me.

When I hear "mozilla" I remember the event I went to where apparently some board members decided to come after all and the employees / contractors were panicking to make sure everything was perfectly presentable. The food catering, the cleanliness...
to me, the word mozilla reminds me of the ueeless board members.

No, in a functioning democracy, it is the job of the legislature to write laws. However, looks like we can barely pass a budget most years. I saw Jeff Jackson from North Carolina say on tick tock that it is likely that we won’t even be able to do that on time this year.

> But that was “The Exorcist.” A film. (Maybe?) An old movie, at least. The “Transformers” franchise, which has grossed more than $5 billion across six films, was more like … I.P. (Michael Bay, the “Transformers” producer, declined to comment on Dr. Howard’s decorating choices or the neighbors’ reaction.)
I imagine at USD 25k a pop, he has the whole IP thing squared away.

I personally don't have any insider information but just wanted to add what your saying fits with the meta on the gaming community side where commentators are frustrated that nVidia has so much hubris that they think they can just sell essentially last generation level technology without the step up (I think it was 3xxx vs 4xxx or something like that where you'd expect the 4060Ti to be at least as good as 3070Ti) and just trying to make up for it in "software".
It probably takes a lot of confidence in your software developers to make this kind of decisions.

Also to piggyback on this, supabase deactivates unused (unpaid) instances just like planetscale does for MySQL.

Disclaimer: I was a non paying user and used it just to try out some code in dotnet entity framework and postgresql (at $work I only ever get to touch sql server but for hobby projects I thought it would be nice to do something that doesn't require paying Microsoft).
Bit io is awesome. It just works. I mean so does elephant but bitio has more storage. I never got very far with my learning and never did tadvanced db concepts like cross apply though so it was just simple entities and tables but it worked just fine and the best part, no credit card required on file.
Fly sounds nice but I don't feel so good about having to give them my credit card number...

It is a balancing act.
> they don’t want their citizens to be poorer
If this was true, we would have walkable and bike able cities...
I feel like there is a lot of misinformation when it comes to bans. No one is coming to your house to take away your existing cars and trucks as far as I know. We are talking about disincentivizing new sales after a certain date.

I realized what it was because of the reply comment but I clicked it anyways because I am on Mozilla Firefox and by default YouTube videos don't autoplay.
iirc Google Chrome has some bizzare byzantine(?) rule engine that determines whether a website is allowed to autoplay and I suspect (with no evidence) that the rules are set up so YouTube can autoplay videos without prompting the user.

I don't remember all the details but imgur used to have some pretty strict limits. iirc you could only upload 250 images on a free account?
I was wrong. It was worse. 75 was the limit for free users. I think I never reached the limit until they upped it to 225.
> In order to get ready for upcoming features, the number of recent images a regular user can have in his/her account has been raised from 75 to 225. Keep in mind that you will still be able to upload more if you go over the limit, it’s just that the older images will be hidden from the account (not deleted!). This is great news, because now you can create even more albums and share all your images at once.
> Also, imgur pro accounts have just been made cheaper! A 1 year imgur subscription is now cheaper than any other comparable photo service, including Flickr, Photobucket and ImageShack. With imgur pro, not only is there no limit to the amount of images you can have in your account, there is absolutely no compression, and your images are not modified in any way if they are under 5MB in size.

I'd spin this the other way round, even in the US it is unlawful to not disclose that you are advertising:
From your link:
> In the U.S., the Federal Trade Commission said in 2017 that influencers on social media sites such as Twitter and Instagram “should clearly and conspicuously disclose” any paid work to promote a product or service.
Sponsored posts should be clearly labeled, at the very least

I have charter/spectrum but not by choice. If I were buying/building a house, I would give preference to places that have fiber.
