Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.auto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you strike a balance between being present in the moment and planning for the future?English6·2 years agoYou figure out where you want to go. Plan how to get there, and then do things in the present to get there. Don’t get stressed out how things turn out; you can only really have some notion of control of what you are doing. If the current plan doesn’t work, change it, and keep doing it, until you get there, or not.

Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.auto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your dental hygiene tips and hacksEnglish6·2 years agoListerine seems to help remove plaque effectively. Since start using it in the middle of the night when I wake up, not getting regularly cleaned doesn’t seem to be a problem anymore. This is coupled with flossing and thorough brushing of course.
Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.auto Technology@lemmy.world•Developing world needs an alternative to Chinese techEnglish562·2 years agoWhile corporate America focuses on mainly profits, “fighting for human rights” are just empty slogan, because corporate America is already exploiting human misery for profits. For government, it’s going to be “to prevent China from becoming the dominant tech power in the developing world” that’s going to drive this sort of initiative, which most likely will have mixed results or fail miserably altogether. Chinese exports are already driving the non-elite consumer markets in the developing worlds.

Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.auOPto Technology@lemmy.world•How a Well-Regarded Mac App Became a Trojan HorseEnglish23·2 years agoYeah, this is definitely a problem with brand new services, especially when the native app isn’t appealing. For example, I use Liftoff for Lemmy. Open-sourced✅ In official Appstore✅ Relatively transparent who the developer is✅ No special permission starting off✅ Relatively few downloads📛 .
When a mobile app doesn’t ask for permissions, it’s definitely less nerve-racking than the more permissive desktop environments where the apps don’t have to be special to do considerable damages.

Alt-speak: we only care if the media report that our ad placements were next to questionable contents.
Apparently, Google has also taken to suck deez nuts.
Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.auto Technology@lemmy.world•Dell fined $6.5M after admitting it made overpriced monitors look discountedEnglish131·2 years agoShoppers of Dell Australia’s website who were buying a computer would see an offer for a Dell display with a lower price next to a higher price with a strikethrough line. That suggested to shoppers that the price they’d pay for the monitor if they added it to their cart now would be lower than the monitor’s usual cost. But it turns out the strikethrough prices weren’t the typical costs. Sometimes, the lower price was actually higher than what Dell Australia typically charged.
Don’t believe in ads, folks. If prices are important for you, do you own research.
Elephant0991@lemmy.bleh.auto Technology@lemmy.world•Sex in San Francisco robotaxis is running rampant, report finds: 'No boundaries'English23·2 years agoWhatever happens on the inside of a robotaxi is generally visible on the outside to bystanders and other motorists, The Standard notes of the AV’s “fishbowl-like” design.
“While [autonomous vehicles] will likely be monitored to deter passengers having sex or using drugs in them, and to prevent violence, such surveillance may be rapidly overcome, disabled or removed,” the study said. “Private [autonomous vehicles] may also be put to commercial use, as it is just a small leap to imagine Amsterdam’s Red Light District ‘on the move.’”
Convenient meetups, plus the additional benefits for certain fetishes.
But don’t worry, folks, we’ll take this opportunity to put even more surveillance tech in for you to keep you safe and meanwhile, perfectly maintain your privacy. 🤪

The problem is algorithmic, so if you can follow the research, you may be able to come up with other strings that cause a problem.
Probably got some parachute built in.
