All excellent points.

I hate this so much.

If you want to do a video interview, sure. But I’m not going to willingly give you a recording of myself without clear use terms.

How long are these files retained? Is this video subject to data privacy laws? Since they’re requesting it be uploaded elsewhere, how many 3rd parties am I involving myself with by the end of this interview process?

Not to mention, we live in the era of deepfakes for voice and video. Do I have any gaurentee that this won’t be used to train some AI model somewhere?

This level of hoop-jumping pre-employment should be made illegal on par with hazing laws. Not everyone can afford to be picky about potential employment.

Generally, I’m against violence towards journalists - but dishonest and manipulative headlines like this tend to make me reconsider my stance, if but for a moment.

Man I fucking love this community sometimes. This is like the 5th fantastic self hostable open source software I’ve seen since joining lemmy, and every time, it gives me that feeling of discovering the internet all over again.

I’ve joined a few of these before and gotten payouts in the range of $100-$350, from Google and Meta.

If you’re a fan of shenanigans, have some friends to play with, and know how to avoid the script kiddies, it can be quite fun.

Recent changes in GTA Online moderation now censor words like “meth” and “cocaine” in chat…

…in a game where large portions of the gameplay are focused around selling meth and cocaine.

Ah, yes, neoliberals

I scan all my receipts and keep a digital record so that someday I can look back through them all and chart the prices of things I regularly purchased over time

Also useful for the occasional class action

I need to try this, it looks great!

As much as I’d love to be picky I’m barely hanging on here, I’m buyin whatever is on sale

I hate how every transaction now forces me to pass monetary judgment.

I’d much rather a gratuity be pre-baked into menu prices, so I can easily make purchasing decisions that reflect my financial situation, rather than being surprised at the end.

I hardly go out to eat at all nowadays, partially due to this.

I love this screensaver. You can install it on newer machines if you know where to look.

Can you agree but also conclude that this knowledge has no real impact on our lives, and therefore our agency is preserved?

God, these phones look cool.

The price to performance ratio is awful, but man, I love how these phones look.

This photo makes me sad and I’m not sure why

Super common with american media

I skimmed the article but didn’t see if they were including LNG in their renewables numbers, which certain publications sometimes do - assuming that’s not the case, this is great news

I’m curious how that policy came about

Not sure, I just assumed it had to do with being 27
