The second you upload any data to Strava, it isn't yours anymore.

I track my own activities in foss apps for this reason.

Effective November 11, the updated API agreement introduces three key changes that provide Strava users with greater control, security, and a consistent experience: 

Stronger Privacy Standards: Third-party apps may now only display a user’s Strava activity data to that specific user. Users will continue to have access to their personal Strava data across apps connected to our platform, though there may be differences in how this data appears.

Data Use Limitations: Our terms now explicitly prohibit third parties from using any data obtained via Strava’s API in artificial intelligence models or similar applications.

Protecting the Strava Experience: Additional terms have been added to protect Strava’s unique look and feel and functionality, helping users easily distinguish between Strava and third-party platforms.

Not that I use Strava or think anyone should, but the title is misleading no? It still allows third-party apps to still show you your own personal data and bans third-party apps from using that data in any machine learning.

It's not the price that is the problem, it's how iCloud is integrated into the device, in a way Apple don't allow other cloud services to do. iCloud has access other apps simply do not, so they cannot compete fairly.

You are also underestimating how sites like SO really helped a new generation of programmers learn. Anyone could search and learn things, whether to take a serious approach or just for a bit of fun.

As with most games now, the players are the playtesters.

Gearbox is just going to keep milking RoR, it's a real shame Hopoo sold it.

Mentions lack of mods on consoles in both posts, maybe a console player a bit angry their platform is locked down? Either way, yep, they clearly don't participate in the mod space much, so should probably spare their opinion on the matter.

Yikes.

Creation Club goes against modding values, which is why people hate it. It's Bethesda's attempt at profiting from 'mods', they don't actually give a shit about modders being paid. But honestly, CC shouldn't even be compared to mods, it's content Bethesda contracted people for and then they sell it on CC and keep the money.

Nobody is asking for free content from modders, most create mods out of passion and the players enjoy that, they can always open donation links that people can use (I have donated to many mod creators in the past, have you?). The best mods are created this way and without the player freedom, the quality of content would be a lot worse overall or simply not exist.

Yeah, in the far future I can see some uses when it's really matured, but I still think more specialised robots will be designed instead.

Yeah, but like, you can have robots on rails. Factories are often designed with automation in mind, rather than slapping it on afterwards.

I mean in the far distant future... yeah I agree.

But back to preset times, when robots like these are cheap enough for a small company to buy over hiring someone, then it will be cheap enough to buy custom robots too.

Yeah, but I just don't see a use case for a humanoid robot, a standard robot arm could do the job in the video. Robots are better when designed for specific jobs.
