Oh, fuck this! Maybe it's time to dust off that Pixelfed account.

Instagram is testing “unskippable” ads that you can’t scroll past

The generative artificial intelligence hype train has attracted fraudsters who aren’t only using it as part of their schemes, but in their ads on social media sites https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2024/06/04/world/ai-scam-complaints/

🤣 Za TechCrunch:

" potwierdził, że testuje reklamy, których nie można pominąć (po tym, jak zrzuty ekranu tej funkcji zaczęły krążyć w mediach społecznościowych).

Zgodnie z tekstem informacyjnym wyświetlanym w aplikacji Instagram, te nowe przerwy reklamowe będą wyświetlać licznik czasu, który uniemożliwi użytkownikom przeglądanie większej ilości treści w aplikacji, do momentu obejrzenia reklamy."

Zapomniałbym: Dan pracuje też nad szyfrowanym komunikatorem działającym w fedi (zastępującym nieszyfrowane DM-ki). Więc jak to się wszystko zepnie razem, powstanie superusługa. Dla porównania: BlueSky zrobił DM-ki "na odpierdol", nawet nie działają z federacją ATprotocol.

Chrome begins limiting ad blockers

In case you’ve been asleep at the wheel – and if you’re still using Chrome, you most likely are – Manifest V3 will heavily limit what content blockers can do, making them less effective at things like blocking ads.

Created this after reading conversation in comments below some tech article somewhere. Someone mentioned "surfing the #internet sewer" and I really liked that phrase.

Anybody who tells you the top results on Google correspond to quality is trying to sell you something. Literally.

Listen to this episode, good review of GPT-4o and Google I/O , with a good conversation about the dramatic impact it could have when Google starts integrating AI into it's search and how that could potentially destroy or at least diminish ad-revenue on the worldwideweb. People underestimate the possible impact and Google is not honest about it.

Bei ADHS (ADS) handelt es sich meiner Meinung nach nicht um eine Krankheit.

Viele Mediziner sehen das anders.

Bin selbst betroffen und sehe das folgendermaßen:

ADHS muss und kann nicht geheilt werden.

Viele von uns leiden und brauchen Unterstützung und Behandlung - Teilweise mit Medikamenten (mit denen ich gute Erfahrngen gemacht habe).

Das allwichtigste ist jedoch, dass die bekackte Diskriminierung aufhört.

Apple pulls the controversial "Crush" ad and apologizes.

"The ad, posted on social media Tuesday by Apple CEO Tim Cook, was met with backlash from internet users who felt that the ad celebrated technology’s destruction of human creativity and art."
