Google has again been fined hundreds of millions by the European Commission for breaching the Digital Markets Act. What does 'self-preferencing' mean for creators and their images?

"By introducing an AI image generator as a Google Earth feature, Google risked undermining public trust in Google Earth as a reliable reference for providing authentic imagery of the real world, Ess said. It could have also handed an additional excuse to government officials or anyone who wants to deny genuine satellite photos by claiming they were modified or generated entirely by AI tools."

Google’s $15bn India data centre project faces water and environmental challenges
Google’s planned $15bn data centre hub in Andhra Pradesh, India, is facing growing opposition from environmental activists over water use and its proximity to wildlife habitat, even as construction at the site moves ahead.

In the Netherlands. We call it by it's correct name. And "Lake America" is not even an option.
So why is #google doing this???

Fuck you #Google, I'm not doing two #chromium security updates per week. You people are high. It typically takes half a day for chromium build because these people are incapable of using system libraries and want to bundle an entire OS into a browser.

Bei einem Nettogewinn 2025 von Alphabet/Google mit rund 132,2 Milliarden US-Dollar, dann entsprechen 890 Millionen Euro ungefähr 0,7 % davon.

Google's triple position as buyer agent, seller agent, and auction house manager for probably a majority of search ads has been ruled an illegal monopoly...

40 Milliarden Dollar Strafe für Google – wenn die Kommission sich diesmal traut. Beim letzten Mal reichte ein Anruf aus Washington, um die Sache auf Eis zu legen. "Nicht ewig warten", heißt es jetzt aus Brüssel. Nun ja, ewig ist relativ. Laut Achim Sawall (#Golem). #DMA #Google

Let me say something fun about the #Polish language.
When you name the letters of the alphabet, "G" is pronounced "gye" (with "g" pronounced similarly to "good", not "George").
"Gie" also exists as a euphemism for "gówno", or shit. It has the same pronunciation, it's derived from the letter "g" in that word.
Well, we were prepared for #Google.

Google is set to make significant changes to its Gemini AI plans, with free users losing access to some of the chatbot's more capable models from 9th October.

It simply works, but I guess the executives think that "yeah, I think it's basically Gemini, so why two of them?"
Seriously, do any of you folks ever try Google Gemini to do things? Not to learn about things; do things.
