on Why is Google still serving dodgy ads? in c/technology@lemmy.world · 14 Sep 2026
They don’t change… I had the same problem some 5 years ago. There was an ad for olive oil using the logo of a famous supermarket around here, and a fairly similar website to the supermarket one. I reported that ad 5 times, got the same “this ad does not violate Google’s policies” response each time. Until my mother clicked on it and was scammed out of her money.
I came to the conclusion that the only solution was to be done with google, I started using nextDNS in my entire network, changed all standard search for duckduckgo, and installed ad block all over.

on You can now apply DLSS 5 Neural Rendering to your entire Windows desktop in c/technology@lemmy.world · 11 Sep 2026
That’s stupid. DLSS5 needs real vertex data to work properly, a YouTube video has none. This is just throwing pc performance down the drain to drink the AI kool-aid.

on Tiny E-Reader Is the Best Piece of Technology in Years - The Atlantic in c/technology@lemmy.world · 7 Sep 2026
Yeah, I just open up Lithium and read on my phone. The only downside is to have to cram Brightness in case I’m out during the sun, but the advantage is that I always have my phone with me, and I can read everywhere. Some years ago I uninstalled all my brain rot apps, and made the switch: feel like scrolling, go scroll a book. Since then I have read hundreds of books.
My dream device would be one with a full eink screen + querty keyboard in the front, and a nice 120hz OLED display in the back with a camera that pops up from the inside of the device at the top.

on Chrome again exempts Google from user site data settings in c/technology@lemmy.world · 6 Sep 2026
On this topic, anyone know of a browser that has that “user profiles” page like they implemented in Chrome recently? I have to use Chrome for work because it allows for entirely separate browsing for each user, and I am looking for an alternative.

I’d bet real money that those “”“games”“” were all slop coded.

on Skip today's Windows 11 update: it breaks cursor styling, resets wallpaper, and more in c/technology@lemmy.world · 31 Aug 2026
As far as my research came up, only CS6 works, however all my stuff was made with 2020+ editions, so it would break my projects. It seems VivaDesigner is the way, but it’s paid only… And I never paid for adobe lol
However, it seems that Scribus can now read indesign markup files, I would just have to export all my projects in that format and test first.

I want so badly to switch to Linux on my main machine, but I have some projects of my on Adobe InDesign, anyone has an actual good alternative that can read InDesign files?

on Jealously Watching OpenAI and Anthropic, Meta Suddenly Claims That Its AI Went on a Hacking Spree Too in c/technology@lemmy.world · 8 Aug 2026
More specifically, they were running a benchmark in a “”“isolated sandbox”“” (sorry, but if the computer is physically connected to the internet, it’s not isolated), and the model escalated permissions in order to look up answers for the benchmark online, which were hosted at the hugging face’s website.
I not only have to pay to see, but I have also to pay huge markups for it??? Fucking hell.
It was always weird to me how expensive glasses and lenses were, now I’m just pissed at being right.
