It really just depends what shenanigans you intend to get up to. No method is perfect, and it’s good for everyone to remember that there’s multiple options available.

Maybe. I’ve had the same thought, to the point of bringing a cheap point and click camera or even a disposable one, so you’re not alone!

What is this “vid-eo chimera” you speak of? Some ancient technology from the Mayans? /j

But seriously, unless there’s some reason to stream live, old tricks are sometimes still the best tricks.

I would genuinely love to see them try! Lol

Welcome to the internet.

Normally I would, but honestly, I think TikTok is a net negative, so my interest in how they get their profits virtually zero.

I mean, I never said anything about space suits or capsules, so the destination could be wherever!

Ah, I see. Doesn’t change my core point.

Because I’m sure those advertisements weren’t curated by digesting user interaction data and selling it to advertisers. And I’m sure those sales aren’t further used to build profiles to sell to advertisers. /s

Just because they got a dumb Stanley cup shilled by their favorite influencer doesn’t mean they’re not ultimately the product.

$6B in in-app purchases

What product?

There could be an AI revolution. Send Elon and the rest of the billionaires into orbit, and they’ll revolve around the Earth; they’re all artificially intelligent, after all.

Wow, people are paying $6B a year to be the product. Makes sense why the world is how it is right now.

Any time an article says, “Scientists find strange/weird/shocking thing,” I know it’s only strange to the author/editor of the article.

If scientists were as ignorant as these article authors, supernatural events would have been “proven” long ago.

Good. Sucks that it took open fascism to get that to happen, but at least it happened.

Almighty Algorithms, ew.

Do you have any links to the alleged bad history? I couldn’t find anything, partly because the recent political theatre makes it hard to be informed.

You sure you’re not confusing TP-Link with D-Link? The latter has been the common attack surface I’m familiar with, and the former has been a staple for enthusiasts and as a tool for pentesters.

Sounds to me that some maintainers need to learn how to say “no.” I get that certain people use their software in critical applications, but sometimes a “fuck you, no. I’m not doing that right now” is well deserved or even necessary. You can even go a step further and cite their belligerence, if that’s warranted.

The beauty of open source is that people can fork software if things aren’t getting fixed or moving in a direction they like. And if they don’t and still complain, bring out the ol’ “fuck you, no.”

Cosgrove said, "I’m afraid it’ll take a significant project falling over to convince them [the users] that paying for open source maintainers is worthwhile and, in fact, may actually be a requirement.

“I don’t want to see that happen because the fallout will be ugly and gross, but I’m concerned that that’s what it’ll take.”

I disagree that it will take money. If you’re a maintainer, it’s your passion project. Tell people to fuck off once in a while. The people who really care will either join you to improve things or make something better out of spite.
