If they really wanted to avoid abuse, they would require a court order for any search carried out by law enforcement.

There are a few ways to store excess energy generated during the day. Usually batteries are the obvious answer.

One of the great things about batteries is that the metal used in them is recyclable and can be repurposed to make new batteries. So, at some point, we’ll barely need to be mining the metals used in those.

Compare that to petroleum products which, if not for green energy, would always needs to be extracting more and more to be able to satisfy an increasing demand of energy.

It’s worth pointing out that, unfortunately, it looks like using LLMs for SEO is the best option that websites have today and is likely here to stay.

From reading the article and watching the video, it didn’t sound like they were refusing the option of having a union. It was more that they wanted to have an official vote on the matter, and didn’t want to be pressured into a decision on the spot:

[W]e believe a secret-ballot election conducted by the National Labor Relations Board is the appropriate path forward. This process protects individual choice and ensures that any outcome reflects the collective will of those eligible to participate.

I wonder what the results would have looked like if they added questions to see the difference in acceptance between banning smartphones vs banning dumb phones.

Granular privacy controls for profile sharing

That said, there is one noticeable new feature for users: easier profile sharing. This feature allows users to share their name and image from existing profiles such as their Google, Apple or operator accounts in a conversation, ensuring that parties in a conversation become easier to identify, particularly in group settings. In keeping with RCS’s focus on ensuring their privacy, users will be able to control who can receive that information.

Looks like iOS devices just recently started supporting E2EE between android and iOS (as long as iOS users have updated to iOS 26.5 and android users are on the latest version of Google Messages).

I’m hoping this means that we’ll start to see other messaging clients supporting RCS besides Google Messages.

By taking on the meme generator, Saflor may hit a wall if the court finds that his arguments apply to any meme generator and a finding in his favor could risk undercutting the entire meme ecosystem, Goldman said.

This will definitely be an interesting case to watch unfold. In my opinion it could definitely be a win if websites that run any kind of meme generator are forced to pay the official artist to have their template on their site.

This doesn’t really seem fitting to this sub, but I guess this is tech related news because they have multiple websites?

In most countries, the output of a single prompt will not be copyrightable. However, once someone starts arranging the output into something more, then copyright can be applied.

Overall, it depends on the country, but in some they are asking their legislators for clarification. Many are trying to apply pre-existing copyright laws to LLMs.

The U.S. Copyright Office wrote up a report about this and included a list of how other countries are handling it.

A copay is the amount that you pay for certain healthcare expenses. The rest is paid for by your insurance company.

knowingly, intentionally continue to fund neo-Nazis in Sweden.

Am I understanding you correctly that you’re accusing anyone who continues to use Mullvad as someone who supports neo-Nazis in Sweden?

Edit: I was thinking of the default defederation list

As far as I understand it, it’s not “hardcoded” in the sense that all piefed instances have it (otherwise I wouldn’t be able to respond to you).

From what I understand, there is a default list, but this can be edited by any instance admins.

Yeah, it happens. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I probably could have been more helpful by listing out some specific features, so I went back and edited them in.

Looks like someone is already asking them for clarification in this thread here: https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Community/issues/2929

Maybe the banner will be updated to more closely match what Defnulls said. Unless that banner changes it’s certainly not a stretch to say that “Cryptocurrency projects are no longer allowed.”

It’s similar to Lemmy, but with more features and has better integration with Mastodon.

- Edit -
Some specific features that PieFed has:

• Support for Posts with Polls
• Ability to follow users (including Mastodon users that aren’t specifically tagging a community in the threadiverse)
• Feeds (combine multiple communities into a “feed” )
• If a post has been cross-posted, comments from every community are shown/organized below the post.
• Post/user flairs

If that’s supposed to be the correct interpretation, why does the top of the site now state, “Cryptocurrency projects are no longer allowed. View change”?

I’m wondering if there’s some grace period for projects to migrate, or if they just start locking projects down immediately after their community votes to ban something.

It’s a little hard to argue that when the top of the site now says, “Cryptocurrency projects are no longer allowed. View change”.

For “AI editing”, I don’t have much of a problem if a model was trained to tweak the settings in something like Darktable to achieve a good baseline to start with. However, for contributing to research like this, I draw the line when models start generating their own pixels and overwriting the original image.

Hopefully iNaturalist and other similar groups start to look at the metadata of submitted images to help warn/educate end users about this problem. That would at least help with the AI literacy issue. Those metadata tags are already being placed there by the most popularly used tools.
