I always assumed incognito was just disabling history and cookies.

Not every country is like the us

Especially in Europe a lot of them try to better people instead of punishing them and many have special institutions for teenagers that are my like psychiatric wards than prisons

Ah

I’d guess it should send a “see how I can provide for food even without using money” kind of way?

But yeah it’s stupid

Wouldn’t it be more realistic if Barbie was also Ken? Since most catfishs are dudes going for dudes?

Or is the meme referring to something else?

If the fine is not a fixed amount but actually gets more expensive the more money you have it actually is quite nice though

Always enjoy those stories about millionaires paying some big sums for speeding tickets in Switzerland

If you pirate stuff they can sue you to the ground but if a fine is not related to total income or wealth it’s just something to be ignored.

Can’t understand why not more people lobby for fines to be proportional in general…

Can’t have the already well-off children go without their steady income that they didn’t have to work for…

Very interesting read

I wonder how a strictly linear thread structure is possible to transpose into a branching structure like lemmy

Yeah but afaik downloading in Germany isn’t against the law since it’s allowed to download a “backup copy” of things you actually own legally so it’s pretty much never enforced. The only way people in Germany get sued is for uploading but then a couple of bytes is already enough in many cases

My girlfriend got a legal claim for using stremio when her vpn failed which in Germany is only possible if you actively upload something so I’d say it does that

I don’t know how it is in the us but here in Germany many (single-brand-)dealers are also licensed mechanics (for that brand) - and since EVs are taking much less repairing than traditional cars they are basically shooting themselves in the foot by selling them

The main upgrade they need is the processor because the companies making those are not supporting newer Android-Versions and at some point that becomes a security-issue.

Problem is that replacing the processor to a newer generation usually means the whole mainboard is obsolete, too and then is very quickly doesn’t become easy to upgrade anymore

just switching between different types of cameras, screens etc. wouldn’t be as big of a problem but that’s also not part of the main-problem either

Or use adnauseam and fuck up their ad-tracking infrastructure beyond just blocking the ads

Better yet: Or use adnauseam and fuck up their ad-tracking infrastructure beyond just blocking the ads

China is not a country that gives subsidies but a corporation that invests in branches it wants to grow

I’d imagine the situation is more dire to those filmmakers and journalists that do narration as a job

Why would you need them if you can just use the voice of an AI impersonating famous speakers like this

Solving security issues with the fingerprint scanner by not supporting it in the first place?

Do payouts for creators increase if people that watch them have premium? If not you are not buying it for the good content but for the service infrastructure

I mean I still have my Gmail account in my mail clients - just every time I get an email on it that’s not spam I go to the account settings and change the mail account there

I haven’t gotten a mail on it in almost a year so I think I’ll unplug it and only login if needed
