#3 has way more ratings and way higher ones too:

I guess it could be lower because it's a series or something, but #10 is a movie, has a higher rating, and has more ratings too:

My only other idea of what "popularity" could mean is the page view count, but then it should probably be called something other than "top 10 on IMDb" IMHO.

UK is clearly "shoes on" on the map though, it's marked is green.

Well, yeah, the dev environment was compromised but the author restored everything and checked that it all works.

Personally I use Pipepipe and Outertube on my android phone, and just watch through a browser with adblock on my Linux phone. Although I don't watch youtube too often, especially on my phone (maybe twice a month or so), I didn't notice any issues with either of those methods, and never got any ads either.

BTW you can/should install an alternative YT frontend on smart TVs, if you want to watch YT and are forced to use a smart TV. Even something semi-suitable like Pipepipe will do, but there are also frontends more suited for TV use, e.g. SmartTube

There are jurisdictions where a price tag in the store is almost always assumed to be an offer (a.k.a "public offer") and the company is legally required to honor it. In some circumstances the employees who screwed up and put the incorrect price tag will bear most the financial responsibility which sucks. That's why you shouldn't do it if you get the chance - it's not a legal loophole to stick it to a corpo, you're just ruining the life of some poor overworked retail employee who misplaced the price tag.

And yeah, the good faith part is also really important. If the person has asked a couple of questions to a chatbot, got recommended some products, asked if there's a discount available and then got an 80% discount out of the blue, got excited and made the deposit, it would probably be enforceable. If the customer knowingly "tricked" an LLM into giving out a bogus discount code, it would be very dubious at best.

I'm using Lemmy, and since I highly doubt the admins will implement the age control thing, the new laws will make it pretty much illegal. So, either:

• They ban it and everyone has to start using a vpn/tor to access it (which would spread the word about it, and many kids would also do it with facebook or twitter or tiktok).
• Or they don't bother about small platforms, in which case kids will flock to those smaller platforms, which now have no incentive at all to care about legality of their content. Congrats, it's worse now.

Requiring easier to use parental controls on phones and tablets is the actual way forward. Maybe they could publish a regularly updated list of what they consider "social media not suitable for kids" and make it the default blocklist when activating parental controls on any device.

I'm also not against regulations that punish platforms for knowingly hosting misinformation, spying on users, or other dark patterns. But a ban on social media which doesn't do age checks will not achieve any of that, it has the opposite effect.

ESH

Fuck Durov, his ancap ideology, and his lies about Telegram being "anonymous", but also it's dumb to try replacing parental responsibility with an outright social media ban.

That last one could get him killed if the tribe knew who he is (inshallah)

Soy milk is also great for replacing dairy in baked goods. Shame that it's not the most popular one.

To expand on the other comment, Luddites were not necessarily against technological progress. Rather they used destruction of certain types of machinery as a political tool: to temporarily extend their power as skilled laborers, and to intimidate the factory owners into recognizing their unions or getting certain laws passed.

Yeah I think the actual experiments were for fun first and foremost, accuracy or integrity were second to that. But in general the idea of testing your existing beliefs and biases via an experiment, and changing your opinion when it turns out to be wrong, was really quite important and profound for the general public.
