Sorry I think the title wasn't clear. I don't want to watch, I want to stream.

What's with wanting to replace all judges/referees in every sports with robots? Computer/Video assistance is fine, replacing them with bots is not.

For tennis in particular since that's what the article is about, the way it is now doesn't interfere with the match, it's a quick check, the decision is taken and they move on. Unlike football (soccer for you yanks), VAR is so much worse. In my opinion it should have stopped at goal line technology, and maybe offsides on goals, but checking every 5 minutes if something happened or not? That's just interference at this point. Remember when 5 minutes of added time used to be considered a lot? Now that's like average. And then you have baseball, they want to add the auto strike zone. And it goes on and on and on in every sport. It never ends, every sport is being polluted by "robots umpires".

I guess I'm just too old fashion or a purist or whatever you want to call it, but I want the human aspect when I'm watching/attending sports events, and humans make mistakes. Sure I've been angry at some decisions taken over the years, but that's also part of the beauty of sports. Sometimes it goes your way, sometimes it doesn't, it makes the event so much more enticing.

I've a better option: have absolutely nothing to do with Meta, don't interact with it, block it in your network, avoid it like the plague. Right now I'm so glad I'm in Europe because that shit cannot launch here, that's how bad you should tell people Meta is and make then join you.

There are a lot of Americans I'm sure that would be like "but it's Europe, why should we care what they do?", you should care because they at least try to protect people's privacy, to some extent, it's far from perfect, but on this case it's working fine as this shit cannot operate here... for now.

I haven't had Facebook since like 2008. My family and friends keep asking me to join it, and I tell them I'll never do that. If they want to contact me, they know where to find me elsewhere.

They've been dusted for a while now, we're just taking our time with the sharpening of the blade. We don't want to make the same mistake again, having to drop it twice or thrice on someone. It's inhumane and all, you know?

I'm pretty sure that was the plan all along.

Je sais pas, ça dépendra si l'activation est faite avec une porte dérobée dans le matériel ou si c'est logiciel. Logiciel ça sera plus facile à contourner/patcher je pense. Et franchement, il ne faut pas se leurrer, les personnes qui ont vraiment quelque chose à cacher auront déjà pris leur précautions en amont et ne seront pas vraiment impactés. Ce sera toujours la même histoire, des personnes lambdas verront leur intimité violée sous prétexte que « c'est pour nous protéger ».

I used to stream Blue Jays games and random events when these were alive. I wouldn't know where to host streams nowadays.

J'avais pas de smartphone jusqu'à il y a quelques années, j'étais encore avec un 3310. Je le resortirais bien mais ~~en tant que terroriste et dealer de coke et tout ça~~ j'utilise signal pour discuter particulièrement avec mon amie et sa famille au Canada. On va donc juste degoogler le téléphone et puis voilà je suppose.
