"Free with $2/ month IAP"

so, not free.

i seem to have misunderstood. my reading was that they were tracking when selfies were being deleted from the user's device itself (and not off the facebook platform).

if the article is about selfies being deleted from the user's posts on meta platforms, otoh, i don't understand why there's a privacy brouhaha. surely their tos and privacy policy covers using your data and actions on their platforms for targeted advertising?

there is a conversation that needs to be had there about the morality of such a move, sure, but i don't see a privacy violation.

this is what's wrong with humanity. find new non-terrestial life in its own home and what's the first fucking thought?

"shoot it down because laser so pretty!"

if i had a cosmetic company, i would question the efficacy of this method. that's not how i would like to allocate my targeted advertising budget.

what if they deleted the pics because they were just changing phones? what if it was because they ran out of space? what if they were degoogling? what if it was because they're transforming?

there are other--more likely--scenarios why a person deletes their selfies than them reaching a nadir of self-loathing. i don't see this move converting into buying actions.

plus i bet that guy wasn't wearing briefs.

how did you get the metal rods in the wheels so straight?

maybe you spoke too fast?

"let's uproot all these trees and invade this space. and when the roots of the few remaining trees do what they are supposed to do, let's blame them for 'ruining' human infrastructure!"

Proponents say detailed demographic information is crucial for the targeted implementation of India's social justice programmes, including earmarking nearly half of all university seats and government jobs for socially disadvantaged communities.

some context: people of all the "lower" (sic) castes receive special privileges in the form of reservations for university and government jobs, as well as financial incentives to foster greater equity in society.

the purpose of such a census is to understand how best to administer such programs (rather than perpetuating the social ills of the caste system).

this is the AI model that truly passes the Turing Test.

what even rhymes with "luigi"?

blue squeegee?

the true irony of this post is OP"s understanding of irony.

to give a visual indication of that comparison:

ha

vs.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

the shit is not photoshopped. his shit may be.

i haven't seen any data to that effect.

and how high did OP have to count before he touched somebody else's lips the first time?

screw googling. try saying it yourself without touching lips.

it comes out as "oen".

You fool

clearly the car was transported there using the technology from star trek.

No more Temu for me

i think trump is the dickiest prick that ever pissed on a mattress, but that one sentence alone proves that his tariffs are achieving what he said they would achieve.

following a legal complaint filed by New Delhi-based M Moser Design Associates. The local firm alleged that its employees had received emails containing obscene and vulgar content sent via Proton Mail.

in January, the New Delhi-based firm called for the regulation or blocking of Proton Mail in India, as the email service reportedly refused to share details about the sender of the allegedly offensive emails, despite a police complaint.

this has nothing to do with encryption services offered by proton. any email provider could fall into this pitfall.

And giving more tax breaks to companies that stay and sell in the US?

that's technically what tariffs do. topologically, it's the same thing: using policy to give a price advantage to domestic producers.

talk about shopping locally and so forth.

talk gets one only so far. when those numbers start to chomp into the household budget, everyone forsakes the "made in..." label in favour of the price tag.
