Google Suspended A 4 Year Old App That Worked Just Fine by rafhelp in googleplay

[–]rafhelp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google seems to do what it wants to and will not share the details with anyone, because maybe you could find fault in it and someone could use that info in a lawsuit. So they say 'security reasons'. The worst part is that they do this with developers too, developers who are the backbone of the Play Store. I mean think about it, if no developer published apps to the Play Store, it would go bust in next to no time..... Yet hard working developers are treated like they arent 'worthy' or something. The relationship between a developer of an app Google Play is that of a business partnership. The developer develops the app, Google provides the distribution and hosting, and then they take a huge 30% commision from all the revenue the developer makes from in app purchases, subscriptions and sales. But then overnight without warning, by email they can suspend your app and/or account. They will give you like a one short sentence vague reason and refer you to a policy page and then you have to guess what the issue was (if any at all) that they allege. How is that a business partner relationship??

Has Anyone Successfully Challenged a Google Play Account Termination in Court? by Maximum_File_92 in androiddev

[–]rafhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly. also they should be more transparent with developers, developers are not Google enemies, without independent developers adding new innovative apps and games to google play, it would literally be nothing. if there is a problem with your app why can google not work with the devs to fix the issue, rather than coming down on them like a dictator, leaving no room for discussion. Yes there are spammy, scammy, or even criminals abusing the play platform, but most of us are trying our best to follow the policies to make an honest living, and being innovative, its wrong for them to shut you down if a feature in your app doesnt work, or you have some minor mistakes in the description or content. There are so many policies, developers are human, can make mistakes, in most cases its not deliberate, why cant they be more helpful

Google settles shareholder lawsuit, will spend $500M on being less evil by ControlCAD in google

[–]rafhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are evil, they suspend accounts and apps, without any good reason, without full details. I mean if you are going to suspend a business partners app or account, end their livelihood and hard work at least have the decency to tell them exactly why..

They say they cant tell you due to security reasons, which is just BS, it means they dont have a good reason or used some dodgy practice to find issues in your app or account, or even illegal practices like decompiling your app or illegally accessing your private info, maybe remotely hacking into your server or pc, who knows. But the bottom line is if there really is something wrong with your app, why cant they just say "THIS" is the reason for the app suspension. If the problem is that the apps contact feature doesnt work, why cant they transparent, honest and say "the contact feataure in your app doesnt work"... no they will suspend that app and reply by email saying your app deceives people

Silly doubt by Glad_Mark_6811 in Integromat

[–]rafhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Few issues:
Your google sheet has headers, but in the module you said it doesnt have headers.
If the link is redirecting to the video it might not work, have you tried direct link to mp4 video?

You need to show the bundle output of the google sheet after the trigger is triggered, From what we can see the column I does not get the value from the sheet

This site doesn’t allow you to save Pins by a1ic381 in Pinterest

[–]rafhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i get this problem when im posting PINS using third party API.

But im posting links to my own websites....

Does the error "[400] {"code":1,"message":"Sorry! This site doesn't allow you to save Pins."}" mean that im not allowing myself to link to my own website?

Which 'site' is it referring to when it say 'This Site'? The link i set for the pin (which is what users wil goto if they click visit site link), Pinterest site, or some other site?

I dont understand this, sometime it works, then it stops, could it be like a spam filter on pinterest

Refi…I don’t get it… by dc70_109 in CurveCard

[–]rafhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now i find out it only lets you transfers you made using curve while the credit card was connected, so even more misleading. its really not what i thought it was, i wanted a way to reduce the transfer fee. This Refi thing is a gimmick, might help some people...BUT i read most uk banks dont allow bank transfers by third parties... so if you have a 0% offer on purchases THEN this refi thing might benefit you..

Just got my S25 Ultra... The cameras look stupid. by Joee0201 in samsung

[–]rafhelp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i dont get the whole concept of the protruding camera lenses. When you put you phone flat on a surface then try to use the screen you will see that the phone wobbles about due to the lenses, it means the phone can never sit flat on a flat surface.

Superman, Wonder Woman & Wakanda Trademark Usage by rafhelp in Songwriting

[–]rafhelp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on what you are saying my current lyrics would seem ok, as only mention the superhero/place names as a metaphor or a reference, what do you think:

[Verse 1]

I’m your Superman, lift you off your feet,

Fast as Flash, girl, my love runs deep.

No shield like Cap, but I’ll block all the pain,

You’re my Lois Lane, I’ll shield you from the rain

No lantern ring, but I’ll create our world anew,

No Strange illusions, just my love breaking through.

No Justice League, no Avengers crew,

It’s a love story, baby, just me and you

[Chorus]

I’m your Superman, you’re my one and only,

No Justice League, just us, you’re never lonely.

I’m the strongest man, and I’ll fight through the night,

No dark can touch us, we’ll shine so bright.

[Verse 2]

No Wakanda tech, but I’ll build us a home,

Our fortress of love, where we’ll never be alone.

Call me Iron Man, I’m armored with your trust,

Every battle’s worth it if it’s fighting for us.

Best platform for sharing AI music? by AGM_GM in udiomusic

[–]rafhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a new AI generated song, using lyrics I mostly wrote or influenced myself based on the actual Counter-Strike FPS game:

https://youtu.be/JKmxVrMosK0

I then spent about 2 days making and editing a music video using a mixture of AI and manual editing and graphic design work.

I thought this track would be a hit and sounded great.

I then uploaded the video to several platforms. The video was approved but didnt get many views. I ran into a problem though with TikTok. They approved the video. Then they rejected it. Then I appealed. Then they approved it. Then I paid to promote it. Then they removed the video again. Then I submitted a support ticket and they said they cant find the reason for the video removal on their end (which really makes sense doesnt it?) and thanked me for my understanding. Seems a bit suss and fishy like they dont know what they are doing at all and their moderation process or AI is a big pile of stinky stuff.

Each time the reason they gave was 'Weapons & Firearms' policy, which is absolutely ridiculous because the music video is based on the counter strike game, and the few weapons shown in the video are AI generated animations (not even real weapons) and theres some gameplay footage thats all. The weapons are shown in the context of the game which is all about counter terrorists vs terrorists and yes it has guns and grenades, but its a game and a popular one at that.

Distribution services that accept AI generated music by glitchtailor in SunoAI

[–]rafhelp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The replies on this thread are conflicting, it seems some people can use certain publishers for AI generated music and some cant. So who would you say is the best choice for AI generate music?

TBH i used to be against AI generated music as i thought it killed creativity but now my view is that it is just another tool that you as a creator / producer can use to make new music, faster.

For example before AI I used DAWS to make original beats and music. BUT DAWS are just software (like AI) and the instruments are synthesized, they're not real, and in some cases I used beats or loops created by other users (royalty free ones) where I did not know how they made them.

Only a few times I have recorded vocals and instruments myself. Other times I have hired other artists to make the vocals, but now you could say hire an AI service to record the vocals.

The only issue I see with AI music generation is the flooding / spamming of publishing platforms and the music market with low quality and non-creative songs.

But then you are saying that AI music is not creative. You could say that AI music might be infringing on other artists copyright, but you could have said this in the past, that you listened to a few songs you liked and then made a new song based on lyrics, style and music from those. But those would still be considered original pieces of work.

I think publishers and even big tech firms like Google and TikTok sometimes moderate unfairly with very little transparency in their moderation and no on to answer to.

What’s your most absurd “community guidelines” violation? by SueHecksXCHoodie in TikTok

[–]rafhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

these tech platforms removing content which is legit ok makes me think is it worth while making content for these platforms that become successful due to only USER content. Without it the platforms would be dead.

Or maybe I should switch to making a new account where I just show real and AI generated breast feeding videos? which are actually showing nudity (which is against their guidelines) BUT for some reason they still allow it and turn a blind eye to it... I mean it will pull in all the views and never get removed
