Several creators posted they had received (...) five to six figures.

X is monetizing the ads served in the replies to creators’ posts to determine payouts. This incentivizes creators to post things that encourage a lot of conversation.

... And recruit chatGPT powered bot armies.

If it's not known wether it's dangerous, how would anyone reply? With their guts?

This question can only get non proven answers and risks getting answered the top health infox of the moment.

powershell is litterally out of the picture.

From approved environments: pip freeze > requirements.txt ?

100 developers to safely add libraries to projects with no fear of falling out of corporate compliance regulations.

Depending on the regulations, python virtual envs could make it possible too.

What's your budget?

Maybe some day they'll get that the more processor-hungry-techno they pour in the mix, the costlier the server gets.

Hence, reddit gets more addicted to money; so more ads and other corporate agreements.

I love the "show source" button which gives access to how the tests are made.

Chose an instance without mandatory email account and which seemed serious

Just checked the cable prices as the article is from 2015.

So, the top of the line RJ45 12m cable is ... 13k€

Damn! Now I'm wondering if I married a fellow human or a bot.

Ask how much is 1 divided by 3; then ask to multiply this result by 6.

If the results looks like 1.99999999998 , it's 99.999999998% a bot.

Yes, KDE Neon is based on 22.04; but their team ended updates for Neon 20.04 this autumn while Ubuntu 20.04 is supported till april 2025.

If they ditch an LTS before its eol date, it's no more an LTS, is it?

They forced me to upgrade 2.5 years earlier than expected, and then the update went bad.

I'm quite pissed at this distro.

Switched to MX Linux.

Much happier.

Any laptop will work.

Con: KDE Neon dropped LTS support.

With a server in mind I'd go OpenSuse Leap.

Devuan? The SysV Debian linux?

Unexpected choice for a server. I'd like to know why you dont seem to consider OpenSuse Leap which is supposedly more server/enterprise oriented?

Also, have you tried MX linux which is another Debian/sysV? and if so, what do you prefer in Devuan?

Nothing prevents someone from following you on your instance. Knowing the sum of your interests gives me more information than the sum.

So, to avoid having your profile being made and exploited, you could split account by interests.

As an example: Someone interested in videogaming and driving Ferraris has a lemmy account he uses to posts on both subjects. Some mar*keting bot wil report "This guy certainly has a high budget for his videogames. Let's sell him expensive racing games with exclusive Ferrari logos & goodies". If that person had one account for video games and another one for ferraris, he'd be protected from that.

But yes, everybody should feel free to use a single wide use account.

If I were given the opportunity, I wouldnt swtich back to the state of " the good old internet" .

It was full of popups and viruses. DL speed was 3kbps on good days. Hence without any form of streaming. Depending on operator, you had to pay for the landine communication between your PC and the provider. If a family member picked up the phone from another room while you were using the modem, you got dcded. Of course, one coulnt be joined by phone when he was using internet.

You have to weigh the pros and cons.
