This is standard perpetual licensing seen across many software.

One off payment = you get a perpetual license for the major version of the software including all patches for it.

Subscription = you pay a smaller fee than the one off payment per annum. You get all updates and patches. But when you stop paying, you don't get anymore updates or patches and you can lose access to the software.

I thought about using it a few years ago but their pricing was just too expensive.

AI or not, plagiarism appears to happen a lot. AI just makes it a little easier than it was before.

Someone who wants to push an agenda by trying to make a certain stance look popular. Downvote those who have an opposing opinion to try to hide the submission from people's eyeballs.

Some people might believe a Lemmy account is worth something if they add value to it, just like what people believe with Reddit accounts.

I wonder if there are bot farms for Lemmy/Fediverse... There must be

Visit Gemini's webpage, there are links to Google blogs that show exactly what the prompts and responses actually were.

They did. On their Gemini webpage it has the marketing stuff, the marketing video (the one that everyone saw), and linked to blogs about how they performed the tasks in the video. So Google hasn't admitted anything - they stated it from the start. We could argue that they should have stated it in the video but what marketing material does? Eg. Redbull's stuff suggests that their product gives us wings.

What do you mean with 'tiktokification of Spotify'?

I stopped using Spotify at least a few years ago because they started serving adverts to paying customers - so I'm out of the loop.

Whilst true, this has only been available with Firefox nightly. I've found some extensions break the collection where none of the extensions load until you remove the one that breaks it.

I only use kiwi for a browser extension that has 4000 installs. So I assume kiwi extensions aren't limited to a selection.

Tell me more...

Do you maintain the block list to avoid conspiracies or because these types of websites are riddled with nasties?
