Most alternative tlds are more expensive than .com after first year teaser rates expire though

.com, .org have legacy contracts eliminating the shenanigans they can pull. .org did try get out of restrictions on hiking the price on renewals, but weren’t successful. So all my domains are either .com, .org or the TLD for the country whe

I also get “there were crawl errors”, which upon investigation are for pages that never existed (and I’ve owned the domain for 20 years, so its not a previous owner/operator thing)

Not true. Commercial or large scale use requires you to use their Web Risk API instead which is a paid service

I doubt these card readers would prevent someone leaving the part of their building they’re in, as that’s a lesson written in charred corpses and was a foundational aspect of health and safety becoming a thing: https://en.wikiped

K-id is the vendor they were proposing which did on device processing. They were trying to downplay the initiative by saying all the k-id data stayed on device. This was undermined by the fact they were also trialling a switch to Persona (t

The next set of hardware purchases will cost more than their last set of hardware purchases, and that's going to outweigh any labour economies of scale given just how many hardware components are in shortage this year. If their growth

Google made the first move with their initial plan to lock it down, so the onus is on Google to calm the fears they caused if they don't want people to distrust them.

It's deliberately written to be vague and not say anything, and given the original intention, it's hard to believe that means it should be interpreted generously.

I'm not sure non-technical people have a good understanding of or experience with password less email login either. While doing tech support I've seen people get very confused at the need to open another app to login in or the fac

Isn’t it microtransactions? Which kind of hints at the difference, since it’s all the ceremony of a two party transaction, while micropayments proposals usually have some focus on being automatic or frictionless

> Agentic workflows are a VERY small percentage of all LLM usage at the moment. As that market becomes more important, Google will pour more resources into it. I do wonder what percentage of revenue they are. I expect it's very outs

They have a ML model based on shrug emoji that decides if you’re in the automatically approved bucket, the face verification bucket or the ID verification bucket. If face verification fails or you’re in the high risk bucket you’ll need to

I think the order went finding the house first and only then were they able to identify the victim (and consequently the offender)

It sounds like they had the abuse images but not her name or identity - hence asking Facebook to identify her via facial recognition search.

To be fair, when has being useless stopped adoption of something in the customer service space?

Forum as a task oriented knowledge sharing site? Sure, but even stack overflow had obsoleted that. But that’s only one type of traditional forum, and I’d say a minority one at that. The main purpose was communities and the threats there are

I would have said Codeberg’s reliability was a problem for them but… gestures vaguely at the submission

The owners of Tumblr thought being banned from the app store was certain death, but losing the nsfw content was only possible death.

It saves face with investors to say you're shuttering a product to focus on the hot new thing as a strategic decision than to say you're shuttering it because your actions have led it to be unviable.

Slack costs new money. You’re already paying for teams if you use office/ms365/etc. That’s all many companies need to see in their purchasing decisions. It’s not just “is slack better” but “is it enough better to pay out“

The UK is in Europe. Brexit didn't float the country out several hundred miles.

Matrix has threads. So does discord, but discords UI around them basically renders them functionally useless. Anyway, the first goal listed in this project was to move to European sovereign solutions so Zulip failed at the first hurdle. Giv
