Je crois que j'ai trouvé le plus long titre de manga :

The Incompetent Prince Who Has Been Banished Wants To Hide His Abilities: The Strongest Sage Who Reincarnated Twice, He Wanted To Enjoy This Life, so Took It Easy and Was Banished From the Royal Family. It’s Too Late To Be Told Come Back Now Cause the People of the Territory Have Noticed His Abilities, and Won’t Let Him Return to His Family Home

@tournesol At least nobody complains now ​:blobcat_googly_shrug:​ All it took was getting rid of half of the people, I don't know why we didn't think about it earlier...

@arstechnica I don't see how it's useful on a laptop, but in a car it could be useful for instance, having a transparent windshield which also allows to display information. Basically moving the HUD from a glance on the side for the GPS to right where the driver's attention should be.

@wraptile @molly0xfff Ideologies still give fines: Facebook had to pay €60M in 2022 due to the cookies being too difficult to say no to, Google got €100M and Amazon €35M... And that's just the headlines coming from France.

@wraptile @molly0xfff Sure, most people don't read it, but at least it's an extra step that needs to be accepted first, which we don't have with opt-out options.
And with GDPR, refusing should be as easy as accepting, so if a popup doesn't have the "accept all" and "refuse all non-necessary" buttons at the same level, they are breaking GDPR, in which case you may want to let one of the many privacy watchdog groups know, as they can take action.

@arstechnica That's still nowhere near as good as real hybrid watches, though... I've had mine for years, it has a battery life of 3-4 weeks when using it passively (as a watch and alarm clock, receiving notifications and step counting), there is no way I'd go for a watch with less than a week of battery life.

@tournesol Je pense que c'est une tentative de traduction littérale du they anglais, qui désigne le pluriel mais aussi le neutre (singulier ou pluriel). Ce qui m'a toujours titillé, pour moi it est un meilleur neutre singulier, mais vu que c'est utilisé pour désigner des objets c'est considéré malpoli... Et il n'y a aucune de raison d'amener ça si on veut créer un mot neutre dans une autre langue ​:akko_angry:​

Quelques jours après que Reddit annonce qu'ils vont vendre les données écrites par leurs utilisateurs, je vois qu'ils ont enlevé le bouton "edit" sur la "nouvelle" interface... Heureusement il est encore là sur la old.reddit.
Bon, c'est le moment de faire du mass edit avec de la désinformation hein

@tournesol Oh, je vais pouvoir le regarder en bonne qualité du coup. Parce que ces temps-ci, Netflix c'est vraiment nul, un gros tas de pixels qui ruine les visuels.

@arstechnica Lovely to see those greedy companies that killed off their APIs to "avoid data scraping" just selling it off anyway...

@arstechnica Once again deciding to do something bad to their consumers to avoid giving away their monopoly... They should be fined to hell for this shitty attitude.
