I wonder if the "metal cubes" were tungsten cubes that the AI was just pricing as if it was some cheap steel cube or something

You can't even set a timer with Gemini without enabling Gemini app activity (you used to be able to before, but that changed many months ago). This means it can't even replicate the basic functionality of assistant out of the box, without agreeing to give Google even more rights to your data, in no way would I consider it a replacement unless it's able to fulfil the basic functionality of assistant with the same permissions.

No way am I ever going to pay a subscription for a games launcher, especially when alternatives exist

I think it's because no one had archived it yet, so I did, here's the direct link to the archive: https://archive.is/MgMu9

Readeck also has a KOReader integration via OPDS catalogue

From what I've seen recently one of the things it did was use a fake email function they gave it to try to whistleblow to a government agency about issues with some medical testing or something

Unlimited, but with reduced upload speed after 5TB. It's Jottacloud for €119 per year. I use it with rclone which lets me encrypt everything myself so I don't have to trust the provider.

I'm surprised more of them didn't try to bring the canvas closer

It's not though, if you're working in a restaurant/bar/shop and your boss tells you to give good service to everyone, especially (or in particular) Americans, then you're being told that it's more important that Americans get good service than other groups, even if you're supposed to provide good service to everyone.

The fact they may be a non-native speaker might mean that they intended "including" rather than "particularly", but it doesn't change the actual meaning of the words that they wrote.

Yeah, German policing of the situation has been pretty insane

Not really, BLM was started to highlight issues of racism, discrimination, inequality etc. faced by black people.

I would not have had an issue if the mod had said equal rights for all people, including Jewish people. It's the fact that they say equal rights for all, but "in particular" one specific group that I take issue with, doesn't matter if that group is Jews, Christians, white people, black people, etc.

What I said here: https://feddit.uk/post/29329161/17366266

If we want equal rights for all (as we should) then that includes Jewish people, we don't then specify that one group "in particular" gets equal rights. I wouldn't have taken issue with the sentence if it simply said Jewish people included, because "all people" does indeed include Jewish people, but "in particular" is picking them out as special.
