Here is another article it seems to have more info https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/25/reddit-will-start-paying-you-real-money-for-your-karma/

redditors need to earn at least 10 gold within a 30-day period — if they don’t reach the threshold, the balance rolls over. For users with between 100 and 4,999 karma, they will receive $0.90 per 1 gold. Once you earn more than 5,000 karma, you can earn $1 per gold.

It's so bad... and what will happen is spam cheap bot content to get the gold amount necessary to get paid.

Nothing "new" that hasn't been shared already :

• Unity top leaders selling stock before the announcement
• they proposing "special" deal to not get the per install fee applied if the devs opt in to use only Unity's advertising plaform in order to kill competition.
• Unity getting death threats from employees.

Wtf is this stupid trash article about outsourcing to Jews controlling everything.

Don't loose your time with this.

It's peace of trash article. Just down vote the post.

Because it doesn't show the conspiracy theory enhancing the authors conspiracy anti-covid/anti-moon landing opinion :

meaning you will never find the truth about the moon landing or COVID vaccines there even if the query asks for exactly that. What you will find - though - is a bunch of irrelevant "fact check" or "science loving" sites, or ones shitting on "conspiracy theorists".

On Linux -> https://arstechnica.com/security/2023/09/password-stealing-linux-malware-served-for-3-years-and-no-one-noticed/

(not a virus directly from a package manager or distro tho).

However nothing prevents someone from hosting malware on github, or fake "safe" distros.

There can also be a slip and people not seeing a project turned into malware.

Even if it takes more space, there are still benefits over biofuels.

The hydrogen can be created using electricity. Currently it is not very efficient, but only uses electricity and water. Electricity can come from de carbonated (/low carbon) sources.

And a fuel cell will use that hydrogen to generate electricity by combining the hydrogen into water with outside oxygen.

For the biofuel, it's a big climate hoax. The issue with bio fuels, is that the energy required to produce them is huge. It required bacteria producing carbon emissions, and the fuel also produced carbon emissions. Whatever entered that plan, will get out, and even more because of the transformation. (i don't remember which video from Undecided with Matt Ferell was about biofuels). Tho maybe it could be used for something. To get slightly less carbon emissions than with normal fuel.

There may also be a solution with batteries. However the energy density for them is lower compared to hydrogen. Tho, there may be some battery innovation I saw passing by which could be pretty interesting.

I may have learned things about tech and computers on reddit, but I don't remember the posts, only the knowledge.

Also I learned that redditors in the comments are 75-90% stupid and useless in any post. I sometimes had to answer tech related posts just because the other answers were completely wrong and did not help the OP.

Tho sometimes there was some useful info. But only sometimes...

Worldcoin is a company who's goal is to use AI to be able to identify a person by taking a picture of their eyes.

They are a for profit company which is extremely bad, and they have also started doing things which can be seen as very bad : like installing orbs as work of art which can take pictures and scan the eyes of people who gaze into the lens of the ball. https://news.artnet.com/art-world/worldcoin-orb-ai-2341500

Their "objective" of what they are saying is getting a way to identify a person. However they give to each person who dies it their eye hash, and 1 crypto coin, I think named after them. However them being a for profit company is very scary as we cannot know what they are doing with that data and if they will sell it or not.

They did pretty much since nfts exploded in popularity.

Nah. It's pretty much a stupid article.

You cannot own a letter. However if the brand is too close to another, there could be something to base a lawsuit on.

Given the difficulty in protecting a single letter, especially one as popular commercially as 'X', Twitter's protection is likely to be confined to very similar graphics to their X logo," said Douglas Masters, a trademark attorney at law firm Loeb & Loeb.

"The logo does not have much distinctive about it, so the protection will be very narrow."

Insider reported earlier that Meta had an X trademark, and lawyer Ed Timberlake tweeted that Microsoft had one as well.

As it's stated in the article, meta, Microsoft and hundred own a trademark. Which means a very interesting thing : This article is s*

Why didn't Microsoft and meta go after the 100 other companies who have a "trademark" on the letter x?

You can't own a letter.

If you don't know what a content delivery network is, here : https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/cdn/what-is-a-cdn/

A CND is very costly to run in an effective way. And because it is an intermediary server between the user and content server, the market is already pretty full. So competing with the CDN giants is practically impossible in a decentralised manner.

Because of what a CDN does (cache website elements closer to the user, protect the website against ddos...), it cannot be a cheap weak server, or it's the one which will get overwhelmed by the ddos, or even the users.

Another limiting factor is that in decentralisation, that means different companies, and so many separate plans to pay, which is just impossible for a company.

If it was decentralized, a company would have to go and pay 100 different companies (which is more expensive, du to the server costs and each companies having their own staff to may (even if it's just 1 person per company)) just to offer a quick access to the users around the world, which is just impossible.

It can be interesting for Linux desktop users. There also is ~~prodondb~~ protondb which can help too.
