That would assume dad has the time and energy for that. In a world where both parents need to be working in order to survive. Most people have no clue how any of the digital world works, but we somehow expect everyone to master it all when they have children?
Wild take, tbh.
I need to confirm my online purchases through my banking app. But I willingly dont connect my banking details anywhere.
I find it weird that payment details can be stored for one-click purchases later on. It is just so highly and easily abused.
We dont accept this kind of payment behavior at a store for obvious reasons, but online it is considered normal? I guess it maximises profits, which are important.
And when these carefully designed systems for low barrier purchases are abused by a child, all responsibility goes to the parent?
Wild how normalised this behavior is.
That the CC can be used without any form of validation seems to be a problem here.
If Google would just verify the security code or something, couldve easily claimed the user made a willing purchase in such case.
But removing such barriers is more profitable.
The guy you’re responding to has a valid point.
No way the son would get away with these actions at a physical store. “My dad was in here earlier, you saw him, i like to keep using his credit card tho, thanks”
Gee, I wonder why scamming is so huge after turning the digital market in to full “end-user responsibility” and tech companies removing carefully curated practices over the centuties for profit maximization.
Google earns billions of these scummy tactics to get users to spend as much as possible by removing any barriers of control and security. Why dont they get any of the responsibility?
Having an adblocker is basic security.
Try to contact Google as a user.
How easy a company is to contact is very telling.
You can speak to someone at Google for sales within 5 minutes tho.
So, it’s just popcorntime with a new name?
It is funny, because the current anti-Ed narrative is being run by similar rich boys and PR.
It’s not about gaza, it’s about creating a bigger wedge between western nations and within western societies.
Ya’ll are being played.
If children in Gaza matter, why dont the children in Burkino Faso matter? Where entire villages are ethnically cleansed until the last person. There is an actual genocide going on in Africa, nobody gives a shit.
Why dont the over 200.000 dead children in Iraq and Afghanistan by the hands of Americans in the past 25 years matter?
Ah right, those poor souls dont matter because it’s not politically adventageous for them to matter.
It does the same no, stream your library anywhere. Thats what Jellyfin does, Netflixify your personal library
Yeah, it was the universal health care threat to US hegemony, not the US projecting their power at any cost.
Was it the WTC7 sized chunk of the north tower that fell on top of it?
Crazy how they conspiracied that.
People here started again about building 7.
Which had the roof of the north tower fall right on top of it, that piece of tower was a about the same size as building 7.
Weird how it “collapsed and burned to the ground”. Must be a conspiracy.
It’s still entertaining to read tho.
The ‘safeguards’ of AI are funny, as they are manually put in by humans on certain phrases and token triggers. By rephrasing it you trigger a whole new token chain that bypasses the known ones.
Or, you know, get any of the hundreds of models you can self host that don’t have any of the safeguards in place or can be broken.
In the end it matters very little. It actually kinda sounds like the the same kind of fear mongering when Google became useful in the 2000s.
Now everyone can find the Anarchist Cookbook! Why won’t anybody think of the children! Terrorism! Rabble, rabble rabble.
Are we going backwards? History is repeating, isn’t it or did I take the wrong pill.
Because I could do that with the Anarchist Cookbook over 2 decades ago as well.
Also for when you, for whatever reason, run out of physical memory.
Who here worries torturing their SSDs? Those things will last lifetimes compared to HDD’s of the past (or present).
It’s not for goods bought. Sony has the obligation to keep the purchase available for its users. For tax purposes, Sony needs to keep records for over 10 years in the Netherlands with “X purchased (or: rented) Y” regardless.
GDPR is not even relevant in this case.
Just Sony doing its Sony bastard stuff.
Still dislike Microsoft for cheaping out on the later generations Lumia. Cheaper displays so the 950 didnt support Glance. Wth?
I still miss my 920 tho. The Lumia 920 is only recently dethroned as my favorite (smart)phone of all time.
Microsoft messed up badly in Europe by completely and utterly ignoring the continent. Nokia managed to gain a larger marketshare than Apple in both Italy and France at the time. With meaningful marketshares in the rest of Europe.
Nokia was doing alright in several Asian countries Microsoft ignored as well.
After the take over, Microsoft kept all their resources forced on the US market, failed and in turn lost the European and Asian markets.
GG.
How are they casually finding these home assistant servers? I sure hope people dont have port 8123 exposed publicly like that? Are you all broadcasting it in to the ether?
It’s been that case since forever now. Nothing has really changed and the same rules still apply.
I still remember ‘hacking’ my ISP ADSL router 2+ decades ago and listening to the WAN interface. Hundreds of thousands of attempts per day in the early 2000s. Mostly US, Russia and China.
My personal #1 threat on the internet for the past 20 years has been DDOS and thanks to billions of IOT devices and privacy invading ‘smart’ appliances everywhere… The botnets have never been this plenty. DDOS as a Service for mere cents a day.
LLM’s joined the fray in recent years but it still can’t do anything it hasn’t learned from us humans.
Yeah this totally warrants the first course of action the American people take against, not even a scumbag, just a mediocore jerk.
Meanwhile, trump is president, musk is still there, the whole epstein thing, the US ranking #1 on the crimes against humanity in this century.
But frontpage full of Ed being a jackass.
It is quite entertaining to see this be so popular among the American people. Yes, Ed Sheeran should absolute be on the top of the list of people to be canceled.
