  • So beyond the fact that they are everywhere and the mass data harvesting that they incentivise I hate particular types of adverts, particularly in TV

    • There's the type that tries to connect their product to something you care deeply about, like family. A common one is the scene of a family reunion, sons and daughters coming home for Christmas, everyone is happy and indeed I connect with that deeply. Then comes the reveal, its fucking oven chips, or candles or some other inane shit. I know why they do this, but I find it deeply insulting, trying to tag their product to my fondest memories, fuck off.

    • Second there's the Freaky/edgy/bizarre ones. As desperarly as it can the advert will try to be as novel, crazy and outright surreal as to force its way into your head. They try to make the action on screen so crazy that you cant help but pay attention. This is a more brute force approach and tries to burn itseld into your memory, until you need a chocolate bar or some shit. There's one I remember where a woman was on screen with another mouth on her forehead talking, its a memory I don't want, again, fuck off

    I hate ads because fundamentally they don't respect you, or anything you care about, its just about the money in your wallet.

  • Pixel 9 Pro Fold impressions: Stellar hardware and battery life with one downside
  • "The new aspect ratio is worse at triggering tablet app layouts in my use so far, something that the original Fold was the best in the industry with. Now, behavior is similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and OnePlus Open, where you’ll often get stuck with a stretched-out phone version of an app."

  • Chemists of Lemmy, how accurate is this likability table?
  • Elemental mercury isn't very bioavailable so licking the surface of a pool of mercury isn't going to hurt you much if at all. (Assuming you just do it once). Plus the density of mercury is going make it hard for you to slurp up a significant quantity the stuff anyway.

    If you want to know about the horrible potential for mercury to mess you up look for stories about dimethyl mercury exposure. Its the fat soluble varieties that give mercury it's reputation.

  • Researchers crack 11-year-old password, recover $3 million in bitcoin
  • The password auto generated by his software wallet used the date/time as the "random" seed for the password, so knowing the rough date he created it they were able to get it to spit out the same password again. So not very secure at all.
