“While safety and compliance are at the forefront of our mission, giving your ID card every time you want to visit an adult platform is not the most effective solution for age verification, and in fact, will put children and your privacy at risk,” DeVille says in the video.

What a personal data <strikethrough> goldmine </strikethrough>. I mean we must protect the kids ... from everything, everywhere, every time, at any cost.

Yeah, pick the sexy ones and it's gonna happen. I guarantee it.

3M, which is facing thousands of lawsuits over PFAS contamination, did not admit liability, and said the money will help support remediation at public water systems that detect PFAS "at any level."

Not liable? Sure... Still for $1B/year for the next decade this is at least a meaningful amount.

Described as one of the biggest and most costly challenges facing the financial services sector, money laundering is an increasingly complex and global problem. According to Google, last year $2trn was laundered last year alone, with an average of between 2%-5% of global GDP pouring through the system annually.
HSBC was the test customer for the new product, finding it outperformed current systems in detecting financial crime risk. They found a two to four times increase in true positive risk and a 60% drop in alert volumes. This reduced operating costs and sped up detection.

This is most welcome as boomers move into online transactions, expect to see overall industry replacing rule-based systems with AI systems if the data analyzed isn't persistent and ever changing.

Regardless, the FTC also argues that this manufactured categorization doesn't matter because Microsoft's exclusivity decision applied to "all future ZeniMax games." While Microsoft said in 2021 that "some" future Bethesda games would be Xbox exclusives, no Bethesda non-exclusives have been announced since then.

In this case, FTC is right and they should be extra careful what Microsoft says, as evident, they will just do the opposite.

Wait, so if they match PS5 pricing, then what's left for XBOX advantage over PS5? Bigger backlog of old games via game pass?

1. Reddit is the default and some of us have gotten used to lurking, since it was always big enough that someone else did the voting and top comments. I look at fediverse as an opportunity for change, and in return asking I become an active community member again. Post the latest you see, comment, explain, etc . At least up vote is the content is good.

2. As long as you are the mod of your /m/, you can make it clear that direct copy of Reddit is acceptable for your /m/. You're reposting the link in fediverse, with the intention to initiate conservation here because of better moderation. That sounds fine to me. Even the mod can lead by cross posting from Reddit. Yes, It's the content. Yes, Reddit is the biggest content source (for now). Don't shy away from leveraging it.

3. Consider who we are and who you want to be. The assumption that power users, tech savvy folks moved over to fediverse more openly. I think that is true. Think if you want to start being the "first" of the Internet. That's how digg was, that's how Reddit grew, even 4chan made a name being the place for the hottest trash takes and going viral once in a while. So post here, and then cross post into Reddit. If they want to be the adult company a layer higher, then so be it.

The researchers suggest that their approach can be refined to aid in finding more geoglyphs in the region and modified for use in other archaeological image searching applications.

I think this is a good example how AI will supplement a lot of our work, instead headlines calling of the end of the human race.

Reddit got so big it's now the default, the masses are always looking for the simple default option.

I guess. That is the whole point right? If you like how a instance is run, you join them. And if any beehaw users don't like this direction it's taking, they can always make another account on Lemmy.

Fediverse allows for great potential of redundant, diverse, and flexible meta content consumption, but we the users are bearing some of that growing pain right now as this all grows and things get shuffled on the fly.

I'm old now. People probably forget or don't know, Digg died overnight because they themselves fucked up their redesign. The backend was broken and the frontend looked like a different site. So people just packed up and left. Reddit hasn't infrastructure wise screwed up. And now being the behemoth it is, it will never really die out. Because, just as op experienced, that masses don't really care about any of this. As long as it's working, they continue to use it blissfully.

What a joke of a company that Comcast. How is this "can't tell you what we're billing" carp even legal?

In my search to ditch them, i found out Ting is offering fiber internet now to selected cities. Flat rate, no other "monthly" charges magically appearing. Link if you are lucky to shop for it https://ting.com/internet
