Imgonnatrythis, in would you buy a compact laptop that has spacebar touch sensitivity and allows you to adjust input sensitivity, giving it dual purpose (a spacebar and a mouse)+ it has integrated A5 printer in it?

Should use Craigslist or something bro. But how much are you asking out of curiosity?

Phoenicianpirate, in Californians Say X Blocked Them From Viewing Amber Alert About Missing 14-Year-Old

Why are they surprised that someone who is highly sympathetic to sex offenders would want them to get away from their crimes.

Methinks that Elon would tote the security of a Tesla, but something tells me that if a sex offender or child kidnapper were to take it, the sensors would stop updating and it would release a lot of DNA destroying enzymes in the interior and exterior that would destroy crucial evidence inside and outside the vehicle.

frayedpickles,

Paragraph one: agreed, Elon musk loves sex offenders and probably is one. Love this paragraph.

Paragraph two jumped the shark.

ThomasCrappersGhost, in Elon Musk announces changes as 'too much negativity' being pushed on X

I thought the whole point of being right wing was being negative?

Zip2, in would you buy a compact laptop that has spacebar touch sensitivity and allows you to adjust input sensitivity, giving it dual purpose (a spacebar and a mouse)+ it has integrated A5 printer in it?

Nope. Too much hassle for the once a decade that I need a printer.

donuts, in would you buy a compact laptop that has spacebar touch sensitivity and allows you to adjust input sensitivity, giving it dual purpose (a spacebar and a mouse)+ it has integrated A5 printer in it?

Depending on the specs, that sounds like it could be fun. Like a quirky street performance thing for artists to draw, print & sell art all at once?

A friend of mine has just broken the record of 100 days living under water. He is aiming for 120 days.

seven_phone, in Microsoft Bing is trying to spoof Google UI when people search Google.com

This is a search engine showing open evidence of skewing results away from true for their own motivations. Slightly comic when it is Microsoft doing it to Google but if they do this so blatantly how else are they more subtly redirecting our searches towards biased or even false results that benefit them and misinform the user.

FundMECFS, in Microsoft Bing is trying to spoof Google UI when people search Google.com

Kind of fucked up but tbf Google does similarly shady stuff.

Please just use duckduckgo (or SearX).

SpaceNoodle,

DDG is just Bing under the hood

vinyl,

I would use anything else before DDG, the primary function of it which is searching, generally feels sucky

sugar_in_your_tea,

Why? DDG is fine for search, and the bangs make up for any issues.

SearX is dead; you should use SearXNG now.

Decades, if not longer.

TAG, in YouTuber LegalEagle sues PayPal over 'sleeping leech' Honey extension | TechCrunch
@TAG@lemmy.world avatar

I agree that Honey is a sleazy extension, but should I be worried that if they lose, it will set a bad precedent? From the video, the Honey extension works by injecting a Honey referral code into all online shopping transactions, possibly overwriting whatever influencer referral code the user was under. If Honey loses, the court decision is likely to say that an extension creator is liable if they tamper with referral codes and tracking links.

This will be a problem for privacy extensions that strip out tracking cookies and referral URLs, since they are also messing with influencer attribution, though not for profit but at the request of the user.

Godnroc,

Nah, honey was marketed as a coupon tool without mentioning the referral manipulation it did that is its actual business model. Those privacy extensions just need to call out that they remove referral trackers too and everything is fine with them.

spicehoarder,

Not an issue because FOSS

Ulrich,
@Ulrich@feddit.org avatar

That makes no sense. The problem is not that and extension is tampering with tracker links, it is that it is falsely attributing itself as a sales representative.
