Meta fires staffers for using $25 meal credits on household goods in c/[email protected]

Yes, i though this, too, but usually companies address this by issueing vouchers that can be only be used for certain businesses or products. This makes sure, the expense shows up as food on the invoice. Nobody cares if employees find a loophole to buy non-food. The company issued food vouchers. That will do.

Man Arrested for Creating Fake Bands With AI, Then Making $10 Million by Listening to Their Songs With Bots in c/[email protected]

The bots faking real users' streaming to gain profit is the questionable part. AI generated cheap content (created en masse for profit) will be the norm soon. If you think about it, quality content is already the exception.

Great movie, but what makes it about the 90ies.

Has an 80ies vibe to me. I had to check, it was made in 94, but towards the end of the decade, pulp fiction already felt old, a classic.

Does archive.today break when using private DNS (quad9)? (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

Today, I enabled quad9 dns for my home network, and archive.today now requires a captcha, which results in an infinite loop.

A similar problem was reported some months ago for Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1

Posting here to see whether it's just me or everyone. Is this a know problem?

What's your take on the Fairphone 5 compared against flagship Androids? (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

Wanted:

  • large screen
  • good battery life
  • great camera
  • long device lifetime, i.e. repairability, software and security updates, swappable battery, ...
  • enough RAM (8GB) and built-in storage (256GB)
  • SD card slot and 3.5mm won't hurt (but we use wireless headphones all the time)

The competition are (from my POV):

  • Samsung S23+ (or similar)
  • Motorola Edge 40 Pro (or similar)
  • Google Pixel 8 Pro

I ruled out all other vendors due to disappointing update promises. Motorola with 4 years security updates promised (out of which the first year has already passed if the model is not brand new) is the minimum.

All phones are stretching the budget; must be really good to justify the expense. Benchmark for "great" is better than the previous generation (S10).
