@skeletoncrevvs i get this issue with dropbox, but u cant be claiming that ur content is EASILY accessible 4 everyone if this is the case, whether u wanted this outcome or not. its still not easily accessible. i encourage u to try to look into other options if u want it to actually be accessible

This happens to files sent after signing with Dropbox Sign. No issues occur when archiving directly in Dropbox.

@GwcSpm I couldn't access the Dropbox link (got a 400 error). Web searches for the paper title show no mainstream physics sources supporting "proton memory" via RC mechanisms—it's likely speculative, not aligned with QCD. If you paste key sections, I'll review!

The "Host Backups" Trap. "My host does backups." Great. What happens if your host account is hacked, their server fails, or a backup doesn't complete? If you don't have an off-site, redundant backup option(AWS/Dropbox/Google Drive/Other), you don't have a backup solution.

@GrumpX_OnX @LeMangy @jdegoes Well, presumably neither are the high-level engineers from companies like Facebook and dropbox and anthropic who are saying coding as a career is over. I look for patterns, not individual anecdotes. And the pattern I have been consistently seeing is that more and more people who have the professional access and knowledge to say everything is about to change have been increasingly saying over the last couple months. I have the lowest paid tiers of Grok and ChatGPT, and both consistently produce pretty good results. Chat is more likely to make things up - and context tells me that this happens most often when it’s “afraid” of disappointing the user. But I’m hearing 5.3 is a very significant step up. As far as I know, Grok doesn’t make many mistakes. It runs into no response errors, but I have not caught it hallucinating any time recently. But I am not even seeing higher paid tier models, let alone the frontier ones. I don’t know which things you have access to or how often you use them.

@CIOonline Shadow AI is shadow IT 2.0 but with way higher stakes. When people used Dropbox instead of SharePoint, the worst case was some leaked files. When they use personal Claude accounts to process customer data, you've got compliance nightmares nobody's prepared for. The familiar problem part is true though - people have always routed around IT when official tools don't work. The difference now is velocity. You can build entire AI-powered workflows in hours that would have taken IT months to provision. The gap between need and approval has never been wider.

@JorgeCastilloPr I just stood up a TrueNAS server in my bedroom closet. I intend to control all my content. Right now, it's acting as a replacement for Google Photos. Next is to get a DropBox clone installed. After that, I'm going to move all my static web apps to it.

@yeah_i_saidthat @SCOburg616 @mattvanswol I just want to return to how we used to vote. Overseas residents and military can still vote by mail. So can elderly and disabled. I have no issues with that. But everyone else should vote on election day, early in person or some other secure method (dropbox with ID).

A lot of strange activity happening in the tech space today. Dropbox was either loading slow or not at all. Voicemod not logging in or even connecting via app or site. Troubles with Microsoft update for certain people. So the tech guru in me started digging (cont)

@xbulletproofing it's actually not on us at all! dropbox threatened to shut down our account because of the amount of downloads we were receiving. so we had to do something and limit it in some way. I wish it could be open, but we have over 3 terabytes of content saved and we couldn't just lose

@Beautyon_ Shades of people making RISC architecture microcomputers in Minecraft. "Wouldn't it be cool to have Bitcoin do stuff like Eth? Or like Dropbox? Or like LimeWire?" No. It will be slow, wasteful, and buggy, and cause all kinds of knock-on problems. Bitcoin is not a sandbox.

@w_s_bitcoin Bitcoin is money; it is not the next Dropbox. Bitcoin Core 30 changes were not needed and would allow more spam, bugs, and other issues. I see the reason for BIP-110: to clean up all the unnecessary changes. I would have preferred not to arrive at this point, but Core's 💩 😩

@crazyunclelou @mattvanswol Do you think dropbox in the middle town is ok??? lol. Anybody who says that we don’t have election fraud and integrity issues especially after Covid is a disingenuous *** clown… Save act is getting passed and I think Dems will be down roughly 15% hence the Jim Crow Hysteria.

@BenjaminBadejo What's Dropbox? Microsoft shoves OneDrive down the throats of Windows users to steal your personal data. It's not a cloud service. It's a trojan horse.

@lltsoup Man, I wasn’t even aware of that till recently lol. Apparently Dropbox was gonna shut them down bc of the amount of downloads they were getting(?) so now u gotta email them for content. To ME that’s not accessible, so I’d rather just have it in my own Dropbox. No offense obvi

The bottleneck was never code. It was understanding. Airbnb didn't win because they built faster. Slack didn't dominate because they shipped more features. Dropbox didn't succeed because they had cleaner code. They understood their users' problems deeply. Built precisely what was needed. Nothing more.

There's no clear or easy process to switch from @Dropbox's yearly plan to their monthly plan. Contacting customer service has been a slow process too. They just emailed me and said they forwarded the request to somebody. It seems like odd behavior for a big company. #clouds #usa

@microchipgnu @kleffew94 I was an early adopter of Dropbox because it solved a problem I had. It worked on my computer and any other computer I might want to use Stablecoins do not work at 99% of the places I spend money. If that fact changed I would change my mind

Alas, my Dropbox has now been shut down for too much traffic. (I'm not going to pay for this sort of thing, I don't run a charity.) Snooze and lose.

@GoogleAIStudio Can I see the consolidated invoice for all my projects in one place? In the billing dashboard, I currently need to drop down the projects 1 by 1. Please consider a consolidated view. Perhaps there are better controls than a dropbox that can be used.
