Digital ID in the European Union has functionality allowing to selectively share information about oneself. You login and you see what would be shared. Up to you to decide to agree or not. So, at least here, for companies wanting to verify age, they could ask for just the date of birth to be...

Good riddance. Hopefully they'll focus on tangible improvements for picture quality.

And how would you rate the likelihood of the above happening? Because I read your post and upvoted it but... You're basically stating there's no option left but violence, if we're being honest. Is that what you meant to say?

Because probably I have not explained myself properly. Pixels losing capability of emitting light is bound to happen, getting fainter over time. Pixels doing that while leaving recognizable shapes on the screen it is not. And only this second scenario qualifies as "burn in". If you have varied...

And this is why I dislike thinly supported analogies being used in discussions (I know you are just responding to them). They tend to derail the discussion quickly when people hang on to them, extending them as if, instead of an analogy, they were an equivalence (which is what you did). An...

I've got a C1 with no burn in and I'm not excited in any way. The TV is performing like I expected to. In this very same discussion you have people stating clearly that they've been using OLED TVs for much longer (one mentions eight years), so I don't understand what your point is. Uninformed...

I don't think it would be so bad to be saddened by people not liking things that give one pleasure? Sure, you can get on with life liking other things. But, at the end of the day, the more things you like in life... the better? No? Although I can accept that there are for sure different...

Reading the article I did not get that message. It seemed more "Most people like music, let's find out if there's a neurological reason for people not responding to it." The concept of "wrong" is absent, IMO.

I'm in EU, using a S23+. Gemini got installed with, I think, the recent Android 15 update (it was seriously delayed). I went into settings, searched for Gemini. Gemini settings are in the "Miscellaneous" section (or whatever it's called in English, not my first language). Went into Google...

I am left wondering... if using uBlock Origin isn't the "Meta Pixel" stopped from ever reaching your browser? EDIT: from reading upthread I have activated the "Block Outsider Intrusion into LAN" filter. Hopefully it works to block this crap.

Got an email today, launching at €299 as a promotional price in Europe. VAT included.

Nope, the scandal that goes under the same name that happened due to boundless data collection by Facebook. But I see you're not willing to engage in a discussion I'd be interested in, so it's all good. Enjoy Trump and his methods. I think they'll lead the world to a worse place but YMMV. Bye.

Sure, let's cry for trillion dollars companies and their armies of private lawyers that find impossible to operate with such a badly written law. It's not as if they willfully have tried to get away with all sorts of malicious behavior toward users for the past 15 years. No. It's the law that...

You forget that there was a time when untargeted ads were the only kind of ads companies had available to promote their products/services. You targeted by choosing the media you ran the ad on. Was it less efficient? It was. But it didn't trample people's privacy and rights by design. If NO...

You missed the part where US companies are breaking EU's laws and EU's companies are not breaking US laws. Was that intentional?

Overreach? Is it overreach to ask for laws of a sovereign nation to be respected? What the hell are you talking about? Nobody is forcing Meta or Apple to do business in the EU. If they want to do that, they have to respect the law. Plain and simple. I'd like to see what you'd think of European...

This, more than anything else. I yearn for the simpler years when I looked at the USA with admiration and gratitude. The gratitude remains, still not living in a fascist country after all. Admiration is going fast and I'm deeply, deeply saddened by this, not to say extremely worried for the...

I can't stand video content. I am a dinosaur and I'm looking at the meteor... :-(

LOL at a $800 tablet still with a 60Hz screen. I bought my iPad Pro 12.9" on the second generation and that already had ProMotion. Thought Air might have been a good way to upgrade without paying exorbitant prices but... alas, I'll keep my current Pro for a little longer. Edit: for me iPad is...

I think it's rather naive to equate the influence and engagement that social networks exert and generate with those emails can attain.
