World News@lemmy.world•Everything Costs More Because the Algorithm Says So | The WalrusEnglish
2·3 days agoGood point, and the guess of the income is very qualified since the app is used which means it is directly linked to you.
And I assume the same method can be used for the fuel stations which answers my question (in my other comment) about that.

3·3 days agoYeah, that would explain the groceries, but what about fuel? The fuel stations can adjust the price so it becomes more expensive in the morning when you are on your way to work or at holidays. But that would change the price for everyone.

World News@lemmy.world•Everything Costs More Because the Algorithm Says So | The WalrusEnglish
6·3 days agoCompanies gather data from many routine digital touchpoints: web and app tracking (cookies, pixels, and device fingerprinting), geolocation from phones and browsers, and in-store sensors.
I understand that collecting data from the browser and apps can change the price for items we typically order online. But the article mention groceries and fuel, aren’t those items typically bought in a store? How does my browsing have any impact on what I pay for a piece of bread?
Deleting accounts I don’t use will be the next step. So far I prefer to have Google and Microsoft accounts and not use them compared with deleting them.
After reading other comments and thinking for a bit, I realized that I have made more switches.
Google Translate -> Deepl
Google -> DuckDuckGo -> Qwant
Youtube -> Invidious
And I have never used Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Reddit much.

2·4 days agoI hope that they get the factory in Boliden to work, the news lately has been that Stegra are looking for more money from investors. It would be sad if both Northvolt and Stegra fails, we need new companies.

1·4 days agoIt is a huge job to replace the engine of a fighter jet, they will not use another engine until they replace Gripen with the next generation.

1·4 days agoDraken has not been used in 20 years by the military.
I have not deleted so many apps and accounts, but I have stopped using them or reduced the usage.
Windows 10 -> Linux but Windows 10 is still installed on another disk so technically it is dual boot even if I have not used Windows for months.
Office -> Libre office
Gmail and Hotmail -> Protonmail and Posteo
Google maps -> Here maps and Comaps
Onenote -> Notesnook
Respektabel åsikt. Köper du från ett konditori eller någon förpackning på Ica?
I have never heard of any celebration of fettisdagen except for eating a semla. And I can’t imaging drinking beer to a semla.
They are really yummy, I recommend to try one. You can follow this recipe if you are ambitious and want to make your own. Otherwise the Vastenavond looks close enough so you can buy the bun for them and fill with almond paste and whipped cream.
Den 12 januari 1956 rapporterar DN att försäljningen av semlor redan ”tjuvstartat” i Helsingborg.
Två år senare (1958) skriver DN igen om hur man i Skåne börjat sälja semlor redan i januari. Men redan före 1950-talet hade man börjat sälja semlor innan fettisdagen.
Att tjuvstarta med semlorna ett par veckor innan fettisdagen får nog räknas som tradition vid det här laget.
Det verkar som det är just skåningar som är extra förtjusta i semlor. Eller så gillar dom bara att bryta mot lagar och traditioner.

Games@lemmy.world•Obsidian's The Outer Worlds 2 Underperformed, and There Won't Be a Third - IGNEnglish
3·7 days agoI liked the first Outer Worlds but didn’t even look towards Outer Worlds 2 because it was other better or more interesting games that was released last year.
It feels like it was to much to release Avowed, Outer Worlds 2 and Grounded 2 in the same year. They should have spread out the games more to polish them more before the release.

1·7 days agoThanks, I didn’t know it increased that rapidly. However, I still think some people was buying gold after they saw that it increased a lot and they could have lost money.

It’s a nice guide, I used it last year when switching on several apps.

This is what EU invest, it would be interesting to know how much the owners invest in it. Samsung will expand their semiconductor production and they are investing 450 trillion won which is around 260 billion €.
