trashboat@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube will start using AI to guess your age.English3·10 days agoI’ve been wondering lately how effective a service would be that takes your credentials for a service, such as YouTube, and starts engaging with content at random so that the data the service has on you is all junk
Don’t know how meaningful something like this would even be, but if all these companies are gonna try so hard to collect data on me then I’d rather fill that data with useless junk

trashboat@midwest.socialto Games@lemmy.world•No Man's Sky: Voyagers update releases today, introduces customizable "colossal, fully furnished, completely bespoke Corvette-class starships"English161·1 month agoDuring my first time playing it (not long ago), it was pretty obvious where new content was layered on top of old, mainly because none of it really works together all that well. It feels like there’s a lot of stuff to do, but none of it is all that cohesive
Also the building system is like pulling teeth (on console anyway). I can never get anything placed where I wanted it if my build was at all complex, particularly stairs as I can recall
I can also rapidly publish bunk ass updates to my app to the App Store so that I can make a funny chart that impresses my shareholders
Like let me just add some random line breaks to my source and rebuild the app bundle. Look at that growth!

trashboat@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Americans get more than half their calories from ultra-processed foods, CDC report saysEnglish31·2 months agopeople would rather feed another addiction (spend hours on TV and TikTok, but one hour cooking is too much)
I’d argue that people engage in these activities because people are tired from working too hard for too little for too long
I always called it the big zappy monster, telling people in jest that merely touching the box would summon it. Had no idea it had a real name
trashboat@midwest.socialto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Did PewDiePie Just Crack the Code for How to Present Libre Software?English1·3 months agoIt could very well be, I’m not familiar with this product at all. It does come to my attention that the statue of liberty’s torch is the most prominent visual element on the page; combined with the block of text and the name of the phone itself I could definitely see where the poster is coming from, it gives off a nationalist air despite it being fairly reserved/neutral in its visual language. It kinda makes me think the purism name was no coincidence but I’d like to think otherwise
