Good thing he gutted Twitter’s content moderation teams in the name of “free speech”, eh?
If I had a dollar for every time a billionaire loses more money than I could ever dream of because their hubris got in the way or they misunderstood a concept or were just plain dumb – well, I guess I’d be a billionaire too.
The US has a problem of representation. Specifically and especially since the Citizens United decision, corporate interests can easily flow money towards politicians to make them do just about anything they want. This exacerbated an existing problem with the corporate tax rate and has now brought it into laughably low territory.
That’s all an oversimplification of course, but it’s not that Americans haven’t “figured it out”. It is far more complicated than that.
Damage done. It became a great example of why it isn’t a good idea to rely on an engine operated by a corporate entity, since there’s always a chance your product will be directly affected by some external executive’s random choice.
I don’t see YT being replaced in that sense any time soon. Federated text and image content is really still in infancy, and video hosting at the size of YT is a tremendously more complex feat, requiring, at the absolute minimum: a metric crapton of bandwidth and storage.
For me, I just use invidious and similar for the foreseeable future, or peertube when there are things on it.
At the very least, not being signed in to YT and having only a local watch history and subscriptions (=not on a YT or Google account) does starve the algorithm a bit.
Yes – and just to add, many of the console AAA exclusives aren’t “exclusive” at all, because a significant number end up on PC anyway. They’re only exclusives if you’re in the PS/XB bubble. (Switch is a standout because Nintendo)
This is a good point, but I think in 5 years, it won’t be a thing on consoles either. The ability to resell implies ownership.
But friendly reminder: games are almost always cheaper on PC. Maybe not at first, but very quickly.
Yes, and he still lost handedly. That extra time was all rambles and nonsense. I think in the end it was better.
(Yes, I still would have preferred they muted him, ultimately).
Unfortunately, physical media for gaming died when always-online DRM was normalized. It doesn’t matter if you have a game on a disc when you have to phone home every time to use it. The corporation may still block your access.
One more step in ensuring no one owns anything. Lease or rent are your options.
Maybe you have just ended up with a lemon CPU. Though for random crashes like that, I’d almost always look to RAM first.
I did have some stability issues early on when trying to enable Expo. Never quite got that working right so it is currently disabled. I keep my 7600x in Eco mode since it is air cooled and the performance difference is not that great anyway, so I haven’t noticed any major differences with Expo off.
The Expo issues were also with a very early MSI BIOS. I haven’t tried it again after upgrading, but I probably should.
Unfortunately not.
My AM5 has been pretty good, the boot issue notwithstanding. It has been quite stable at least. For me it’s a 7600x.
…yeah, I’m an idiot. I hadn’t thought very carefully about it yet. Won’t help me since the delay is before POST.
I have an MSI motherboard. Memory Context Restore shaves significant time off of boots, but it is still extremely slow. Just a hang before I see POST complete.
Boot times on AM5 are soooo slow due to some memory training feature of DDR-5, even after following many suggestions for settings. It appears to be a general issue with the platform, so hibernation is very much back on the menu for me.
Duh, it won’t matter since the delay is before POST.
The goal was always that the user would be the product. It was less clear at the beginning, because the advertising was far less intrusive (if you even saw an ad at all, in the early days), and the service was “free” at a time when the internet was comparatively young. So it gained a lot of popularity from novelty and being an actually useful communication tool.
But the communication tool portion was always a side effect of data collection. Any “free” service is ultimately just getting value from you in different ways. In the case of Facebook, once it had amalgamated enough data, the flood gates opened and the enshittification was extremely rapid. It will never go back to the way it was for many reasons, not the least of which being: it was designed to be the cesspool it is now.
Ultimately, all these seemingly random posts are an attempt to get you to continue to interact with the platform. If you read through comments on such posts, they do tend to drive engagement, even if it is just a user going “why is this in my feed?”
Elon has fucked around so much at this point, he should eventually be enduring a never-ending streak of find outs.
The paragraph
Which?
First paragraph had me laughing. Somebody has spent a lot of time in private industry and has gotten burned a few times.
Without regard for anything else you said, do you think your experience is more representative than mine?
Sounds like they want a round of layoffs but don’t want to pay severance.
