“I already beat the game, why would I pay for it?” This must be especially common for big AAA games too.

I dunno if corpos hiding under sex and drugs to lure people to their corpo products is a great reality either.

Building features instead of apps is always a precarious situation.

Also, ironically, wouldn’t software patents help here? (I’m not advocating for them. But…)

If software patents are uncool. And Sherlocking isn’t cool. Then… how does one even begin to adjudicate this?

It’s always drivers with Windows. smh

I have gigabit, and struggled to stream. Turned out I had the Quality of Service (QoS) /traffic priority settings on my router misconfigured.

This might be something to look into.

Can a remote user download something from your network at a reasonable and consistent speed? (Not using Plex)

Can you upload a large file somewhere and monitor the speed and see if it maintains speed as expected?

For me, these two things were also performing at unexpectedly low speeds, or being wildly inconsistent until I fixed my QoS settings.

paraphrand ,

That’s reminds me, I should go update mine.

I didn’t know about the co-ownership. That makes HOA stories make more sense.

One of those big fucking trucks with poor visibility. Driven with over confidence.

Century Link is pulling this shit too.

Now do Safari.

paraphrand ,

That was mostly my joke.

Part of my joke was also that comparing one platform to another like this wouldn’t be a direct/good comparison.

Look into how Apple is designing the private compute cloud for this, it’s pretty cool. And unlike what other companies are doing with the data that passes through their LLMs.

If feel like this community could use a bot that comments the following on every post:

What sort of deceptive marketing are we talking about?

paraphrand ,

Lemmy is so fucking cynical.

I think there is plenty of room on news websites for a few of them to cover this.

No, it’s just like Dungeons and Dragons, according to others in this thread.

Wisconsin attorney general files felony charges against attorneys, aide who worked for Trump in 2020 (apnews.com)

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul filed felony forgery charges Tuesday against two attorneys and an aide who helped submit paperwork falsely saying that former President Donald Trump had won the battleground state in 2020....

paraphrand ,

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul, a Democrat, didn’t rule out filing more charges, including against the 10 fake electors, saying that the investigation is ongoing.

“Our approach has been focused on following the facts where they lead,” he said at a news conference.

They tried to buy ARM recently to beef it up, too.

What is this medium blog nonsense with a nonsense headline?

The last time this was posted people pointed out this therapy isn’t new, as far as I remember.

This is blog spam. I saw no citations about any insulin companies being angry.

“Journalists and publishers of information about SEO and Google Search need to stop uncritically repeating Google’s public statements, and take a much harsher, more adversarial view of the search giant’s representatives,” Fishkin says. “When publications repeat Google’s claims as though they are fact, they’re helping Google spin a story that’s only useful to the company and not to practitioners, users, or the public.”

Yes.

It’s because doing the right thing when it comes to algorithmic social spaces means destroying the golden goose.

I once had a faculty member tell everyone at a meeting that her students could download the required textbook at something called ebooks3000. And I looked it up quick and discovered it was a book piracy website. 🤦‍♂️

Have you ever bough an external hardrive only to take the disk out of it?

Hiya, so am looking to buy more storage and while browsing am seeing some external harddisks, such as Western Digital My Book and Seagate Expansion Desktop for cheaper than the internal harddisks themselves. Have seen this one video from KTZ Systems where he bought up multiple of these external ones just to open them up and use...

paraphrand ,

It’s a bummer that hard drives are priced this way. It’s been common for a few decades now.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk recently announced that Starship’s fourth integrated flight test, IFT-4, could be just days away.

He should really stop predicting things.

paraphrand ,

It’s just an opinion.

paraphrand ,

A new meme I expect to take hold is how tempting ChatGPT is. And how the temptation will only grow as LLMs and similar get better, and as our externalized knowledge habits change.

paraphrand ,

BUT THE LAM! People reported on the “large action model” like it was real. It always sounded like bullshit, in this case. Even if they were selling ideas they feel are obvious and inevitable.

paraphrand ,

I agree that it’s logical to do.

And here we are now with Microsoft’s rewind thing. And rumors about Apple giving Siri the ability to see your screen visually.

It actually seems inevitable. But Rabbit was spinning tales.

paraphrand ,

Oof, the article goes on to say all the platforms failed. X just failed a bit more.

This is going to lead to some “well, they’re all about the same.” discourse shenanigans.

How does it heal, does it still work 10+ years later? How many major OS updates did it get?

Decentralized Systems Will Be Necessary To Stop Google From Putting The Web Into Managed Decline (www.techdirt.com)

Is Google signaling the end of the open web? That’s some of the concern raised by its new embrace of AI. While most of the fears about AI may be overblown, this one could be legit. But it doesn’t mean that we need to accept it....

paraphrand ,

“Managed Decline” That’ll be big.

paraphrand ,

Perfectly?

I guess we understand more about the brain than I thought. 🤔

paraphrand ,

No, nothing like that. I’m just calling Elon a petulant man-child.
