The issue is that the Venn diagram of people interested in vikings/odinism and racists bigots is almost just a circle

I think it’s slightly misleading saying they’ve added a new hero on the title, when in reality they’ve just added a very very pre alpha stage hero to the hero labs, a mode made for people to test and give feedback on hero concepts

For the moment, the Trapper placeholder is literally Pocket but with a different hair and suitcase. Magician, another hero labs hero, has the same half animated model as Seven. There are two other heros there that are quick sketches of the models from when Deadlock was a sci-fi game

Honestly, at this point, they deserve every single bad thing that happens to them.

Unfortunately those bad things will also trickle down for the rest of the world and I’m so tired of that

When basic and highly requested features go untouched for years on end on every single product they have and new ones they launch, and Proton decides to keep expanding the portfolio without seemingly expanding the work force, then yes, one thing does prevent the other from happening.

There’s probably a name for this just like the “author’s barely disguised fetish”. Usually when you see politicians campaigning this hard on topics like those, it’s probably because they themselves are doing it

It makes more sense to not spread even thinner chasing AI grifting and cryptobro services when your existing services have been lacking basic functionality for years

The entire way that Proton introduced the Proton Scribe seemed very shady. Usually Proton would go on and on about transparency and all that, but with Scribe it just seemed very off, like they were purposefully avoiding talking about the thing in question.

On the Reddit post about the bitcoin wallet, Proton team is also avoiding replying to most negative constructive comments about it, and the very few that they did reply to are just trying to justify the walletand LLM because “banks have crypto ETFs”, “other companies have implemented AI” and my favourite “one shouldn’t confuse Bitcoin with “crypto””.

Proton is acting in a shady way with these two controversial services that seemed to appear into thin air on how quick they released those. I cannot see myself using Proton’s products anymore and while trying (fighting) to cancel my subscription, I can see some dark patterns that try to prevent you from doing it, or trying to upsell you something.

Oh and by the way, Hylics is such a great game

I could go on and on about those features on that page that are there for ages, but one struck me hard in the last hour: I tried cancelling my subscription, and after clicking on 6 “I’m sure” buttons and writing a reason why, I couldn’t cancel because I was using too much storage (3GB, free accounts have a 500MB limit). I deleted everything on my Drive and emptied the trash, tried again, no success. Deleted all my emails and emptied the trash, still failed. Deleted everything on Calendar and Pass, nothing. Couldn’t find anywhere how to contact support. There’s a small bar that shows how much storage I’m using, one would expect that clicking on it would show a summary of what’s using your storage, but all it does is show a popup with Proton’s subscription plans.

I can’t cancel my subscription because they don’t have the basic functionality of a storage usage summary.

They’ve made a poll that had questions about AI, but no clear options to indicate that you don’t want anything to deal with AI. From the results, less than 20% of the voters signalled that they wanted an AI offering from Proton, those being business users, and less than a month later Proton introduces (to business accounts at the moment) a LLM that writes email for you (that has to decrypt and read plain text the emails that were supposed to be stored with zero access encryption), and it uses a model that was trained on copyrighted data without permission.

Not even two weeks later they come up with this crypto wallet, and both endeavours are on two very sensitive and controversial topics, to a point it seems Proton is “selling out” to techbros.

All the while, you can’t even create or edit folders and labels on their mail mobile apps.

The reason people are mad with this is because Proton’s longstanding services are lacking basic features for months and years already with no update in sight, and in less than a month after a (now) controversial poll, Proton introduces AI and crypto wallet in their portfolio.

Instead of focusing efforts into maintaining and improving their current products, of which many lack basic features, Proton decides to (in less than a month it seems) expand their portfolio into crypto bro and AI grifter territory.

I was already quite annoyed and unhappy with Proton’s services lacking things and the steep price (13€ a month and I can’t even use unlimited addresses for my custom domain), but this is the last straw. Fortunately I was already planning to move out so I’m able to just set everything up tomorrow and be done with it. I’m planning to get Migadu’s micro plan, move back to Bitwarden and get that Hetzner 1TB StorageShare, the three combined will be cheaper than 13€ a month and I’ll be getting more bang for my buck

This is only for phones that come with One UI 6.1.1 by default and there’s a page during OOBE setup with a toggle for this “feature”.

An update to your existing phone will not turn on this block, it’s only for new phones.

It is also only enabled by default on new phones and during OOBE setup there’s a toggle for this.

Creating ads that are even more targeted to you so you can forget about everything and buy that electric kitchen knife you just saw scrolling reddit

I checked it out as I was curious. First post was “I sleep with my sister, AMA” and then an AI porn thread with guides and very dangerous lolicon porn.

Do not check it out

When is ad an advertisement and not a recommendation?

Always? That’s why it’s called ad instead of recommendation

I think it uses VAAPI for AMD and NVENC for Nvidia, and saves it as H264

Zed is not an IDE, it’s a code editor. No, they aren’t the same things, it’s like saying a table and a kitchen are the same thing.

Wouldn’t running it on privileged mode cancel out whichever safety measures of running that script in a container?

Yes I have, but GIMP simply isn’t aimed at the same type of work Photoshop and AF Photo are. GIMP feels much more of a hobbyist tool to quickly make a simple edit and that’s done. And like the other comment said, it has no non-destructive editing at all, which is an enormous dealbreaker for any kind of professional work you might do.
