He installed a fake antenna? like a fake cellular radio tower? how is it possible that phones just randomly trust this antenna? they explain very little in the article.

Yes the improvement is legit. It used to lag a lot even with the double press shortcut on the power button it was too slow for a quick photo.

Mine only has one year and a few months, so it's still to be seen for how long I can keep using it.

I'm happy with just the security updates and bug fixes so this is a nice extra.

They are asking Microsoft and Open AI to pay a subscription?

You mean that they can later equate "subscription for using this model trained with my book" to "subscription for using your brain trained with my book"?

I'm completely ignorant of Spain's politics but after my 10min google investigation, because I'm curious, I found that apparently the current prime minister is negotiating some votes from a Catalan political party so that he can be reelected.

In exchange they ask for 'amnesty' with which to delete all their criminal records for the illegal 2017 secession referendum, which would mean forgiveness of the crime, as if it had not occurred. With this some party members who fled from justice would be able to return to Spanish territory.

There are also a bunch of financial deals but the amnesty thing is the one that makes the news.

Yes actually I already had those blocked but turns out that I had Elon's but this title has Elon’s, different quote characters ' and ’ so that's why it didn't work. Funny thing, after adding that keyword I couldn't come back to reply and I thought the post was deleted, had to remove it just so I can access the post again.

I use Sync for lemmy on Android, it has a nice option where you can add a list of keywords and it hides posts that have it in the title.

I hate that I can't block posts about X. I have a bunch of keywords blocked with filters but obviously I can't use X as a keyword. I'm sick of news/posts about X.

Well, the guy is in jail for what he did, and as bad as his action was the government can't just ignore the issues he uncovered.

I guess that's how Java was born.

Could be, but more likely it's just the result of having self hosted services, you have individuals exposing their own small servers to the wilderness of internet.

These trols also try constantly to post their crap to mainstream social media but they have it more difficult there. My guess is that they noticed lemmy is getting a big traction and has very poor media content control. Easy target.

Moderating media content is a difficult task and for sure centralized social media have better filters and actual humans in place to review content. Sadly, only big tech companies can pay for such infrastructure to moderate media content.

I don't see an easy way for federated servers to cope with this.

Honest question, what should they call it?

To me, it makes sense that they don't want to call it a missile unless it has a rocket or other type of powerful engine. Drones are things that I expect to have the ability to return to base, and to have a propeller engine, so if any of those is designed to not return then calling them kamikaze makes sense no?
