In fucked up places, people just live day to day and are in survival mode. I believe I have once read something that goes along the lines of “poorer demographics generally have tendency to make more children because they think that more children is the most sure way to secure their near future for when they get older”

I think it's simpler than that. Nothing to do when you're poor and overworked so you just fuck. Oh, and less caring about the consequences.

Yeah it was funny to read :

“Based on the limited nature of the customer information believed to be involved, we determined that individual notifications were not warranted under applicable privacy laws,” the Suno spokesperson added.

But then (talking about the hacker):

They said they also accessed Suno’s customer list, which included customers’ emails and/or phone numbers and Stripe payment details, depending on what they used to login. The hacker provided a sample of some of the customers, some of whom confirmed to 404 Media they had used their phone number to sign up for Suno and said they were never notified of a breach.

I guess email address, phone and payment details don't matter enough to notify people.

Take some Baltic countries or some far east Europe countries and your commute from city A to city B in a train would be a mild annoyance at best and a nightmare at worst. You’d also be lucky if train goes more than 3 times a day or if trains go more than just capital to 2nd biggest city

Am also from Eastern Europe (Lithuania). It's not that bad, however, they're slow. I don't remember it going over 130km/h (i might be mistaken) and it does quite a lot of stops.

A train journey from Vilnius to Klaipeda (310km) takes 4 hours 40 mins - 5 hours 10 mins (depending on the train). Same journey by car takes 3 hours 10 mins. Now account for what it also takes to get to the train station and from it to your destination (made worse because cities themselves have pretty meh public transport also) and you see why everyone chooses cars.

The cities that you're traveling from and to have to have good public transport / bike infrastructure / walk-ability for them to make sense.

Yeah.

The lawsuits have made clear that Suno did train on huge amounts of copyrighted works, but the hacked data shared with 404 Media sheds more light on how Suno scraped songs from the internet and where it took them from.

I have something similar inside my Hyprland config (to stop - play music) but it of course works for youtube videos. I suppose it makes more sense to set these keybinds on a window manager as you can use them from anywhere, not just emacs.

That being said, I did not know it was possible to rewind the video using playerctl 🤯

here are the results of the votes:

July 7th: https://mepwatch.eu/10/vote.html?v=195338&country=&eugroup=

July 9: https://howtheyvote.eu/votes/195775

By the way here are the results of the votes:

July 7th: https://mepwatch.eu/10/vote.html?v=195338&country=&eugroup=

July 9: https://howtheyvote.eu/votes/195775

One thing that I don't understand is:

On July 7 there was a vote for this urgent vote to take place. 303 were against, 331 were for, (- 28 people) (so it passed)

Today (July 9th) the actual vote for this law took part. 314 were against, 276 were for (+38) (yet still passed).

Please tell me why MEP's voted for this urgent vote to take place and then later (on July 9th) voted against it ?? Were they misled or something?

That mass surveilance was pushed through by the EU commision against the parliament that already rejected it (twice).

Commision and the council. Especially the most recent chat control 1.0 proposal that the parliament will vote for tomorrow (July 9)

EU ambassadors agree to push a temporary revival — unprecedented, as Parliament’s rejection was considered final. Because an expired regulation cannot be extended, the Council proposes a formally new law with identical content via an expedited procedure.

I take notes in markdown as well and had to deal with this problem as well. There were numerous plugins that gave this functionality that the author implemented but I didn't feel like having an extra plugin just for viewing markdown headlines (especially since I don't use LSP's during software development)

I ended up just using gO command. I made some extra changes so that I could make the gO buffer take up half of the height of the window with C+w+=.

There's also [[ shortcut that will jump you to the parent heading, so you can then search inside the gO buffer for it.

I'm not completely happy with this but it will suffice for now. I will need to automate this in the future, though.

My browser clears all cookies from Reddit when I close it down. And every time I go to the new Reddit site, it auto logs me in with my Google account. In some other sites there's the annoying "log in with google account" popup at the top; it doesn't do anything if you don't click to log in. But Reddit doesn't ask. Just says: "Logging you in" and you can click cancel if you're fast enough.

They even auto create you an account if they do this for the first time.

Awhile ago they were also experimenting forcing mobile users to use the app

And now they're also rolling out age verification in the EU (just got an email yesterday). One of the ways to verify your age is with Persona which Discord also tried to use and got a lot of backslash.

What's the difference between single vs double quotes?
