One day, literally every Gsuite product immediately and incessantly started nagging us to use Gemini. Fortunately our tech staff quickly switched it all off. We have slowly been re-enabling features that are useful like meeting transcriptions. I just wish these corporations could have more restraint. In previous waves of improvement in tech, usage dictated investment in new products. These days, they seem to feel the need to coerce us to use their products as they insist we should. I think users are getting fatigued by this dynamic. I used to be the first to install every update and try new apps and products. These days, I'm excited when I can stop using a product, and I don't think it's just due to age. It means I can stop having to be vigilant about some company I know is searching for ways to exploit me.

Popular doesn't mean just.
Oh that's good news! I really only use it for myself, so that sounds like I can stream my music without worrying
Dynamic DNS does cost money. But not $8 a month. Development also costs money which falls under the $8 a month, but really not my problem, which is why I use Jellyfin. I used to run Plex off of my Nvidia shield, which was a cool gateway drug to self hosting and I'm grateful to them for that, but I like handling the technical stuff myself.
The first one, yes. That's what I do. But IIRC hosting media via cloudflare tunnels goes against the TOC and they reserve the right to ban users over it
It is awkward for a prof to be in world news for romantically chasing after a mentee, asking for advice from someone he knew was a convicted sex predator. Then he is expected to lead a lecture. Maybe you've never led a college lecture, but I can assure you from experience that would be a very difficult situation. Maintaining an environment of respect between professor and students is already difficult in normal circumstances
Ah yeah, Lawrence Krauss, very few are surprised about that one
They've been bought out and gutted a couple times over. It's very sad
They needed a safe space for their ideas. Less scary stuff like pronouns that make their brains hurt
They say the camera points down, but that makes me wonder...what about the reflections?? Oh god, the reflections
A tragedy is an event of great loss, usually of human life. Such an event is said to be tragic. Traditionally, the event would require "some element of moral failure, some flaw in character, or some extraordinary combination of elements" to be tragic.
To me this is tragic even in the Greek sense
I wonder if normally, such a light outage would trigger a remote operator to intervene and drive the car through the intersection, but the sheer number of disrupted lights, combined with the spotty connection due to parts of cell network going down caused the remote operator system to not be able to keep up across the city.
