You made a post about a subject you were concerned with not brought up in a video you watched - and this part is important - on a thread discussing the video getting improperly removed.

Now perhaps you didn’t read the title completely and became confused… but assuming you didn’t: please tell me how your urgent missive is on topic.

My original response at least provided you the courtesy of a response. You didn’t care for it - but that is perfectly fine. Your type rarely enjoy those sort of observations.

If you are looking to derail things further after losing your original position I’d suggest you stop. This behavior is well documented as a standard method of trolling and isn’t even novel.

instead of

Your topic. Your concern. I covered this. You want to drive the topic? Make your own content. I understand there’s even a transformative method of reviewing content and talking about it. By all means go do that. Your fanatical pursuit of this accomplishes what? Go on - let us all know your manifesto. Detail to us how this opinion of yours, on a tiny thread, on an even smaller corner of the Internet, is making a difference at all in the topic you are whinging about.

You are a poser looking to self congratulate or a low effort troll. You want to make a difference? Go do it. This isn’t it - nor is it a viable path to a solution.

… opposed to the journalist speaking about a topic they set out to cover without derailing things … and still producing in excess of 3 hours of distilled content. You are exactly what is wrong with the current social media. There are thousands of topics speaking directly about the subject you are concerned with. Go partake in those. You aren’t shedding light on something - you are virtue signalling. You aren’t being a good steward - you are being a disruptive cunt.

Are you genuinely going to nitpick a video focusing on the black market for gpus… about not calling out your specific concern? My dude - I’d advise you to find perspective that isn’t up your own ass.

Maybe I’m dating myself but this is the same company that released state of emergency for the PS2? That game you could literally mow down people in a mall with a mini gun?

They were worried about “the children?” News to me.

Nonono that one is Chucky from Childs Play. Not to be confused with Orange Chunky from Plays with Children.

It’s only right that they experience homes for the insane as they were during their generation ;) I certainly wouldn’t want them to feel out of place.

Am I the only one that thinks 90% of the people in the clowns orbit should be put in homes for the elderly and insane?

We’ve got bro getting ready to fingerpaint with pudding and queen karen-de-ville realizing the voices are in the room with her.

It’s almost like once upon a time we put shit in burlap sacks and paper and discovered that it was a moisture magnet. That’s good for pills right? A moist environment? Possibly warm depending on where you store it? That couldn’t possibly have adverse effects to sensitive compounds we ingest.

Nice try RNDAscii().username

I’d recommend some xx(edgelord.dic)xx next time.

LTT unfortunately has gone the way of easy engagement via ragebait and low hanging fruit. I don’t blame them - they have a lot of staff and lovely people to keep employed… but they aren’t the scrappy diy because why not guys they were back before Linus media. It was the right business choice … but a lot of us just can’t stomach the change. It’s like a good friend gone alcoholic.

What you don’t want vista-fruitcake? Trash nobody wanted then so we repackaged it!

They’ve done the math. They know they can take lost in users because they know they’ll make up for it. That’s the sad part in all of this.

They really haven’t taken massive hits because we are creatures of habit: it’s more convenient to hang around even if we know we’re getting ripped off. There is a conversion rate - but it’s low enough where clearly they believe the market will bear more abuse.

Absolutely. I should have used the term productivity rather than service. Lack of caffeine had blunted my vocabulary. In essence: more output for less work. Output in this case is profit.

Enshitification is, in essence, the push beyond diminishing returns into the ‘lossy’ space … sacrificing a for b. The end result is an increasingly shitty experience.

It’s technically closer to Schrodinger’s truth. It goes both ways depending on “when” you look at it. Publicly traded companies are more or less expected to adopt AI as it is the next “cheap” labor… so long as it is the cheapest of any option. See the very related: slave labor and it’s variants, child labor, and “outsourcing” to “less developed” countries.

The problem is they need to dance between this experimental technology and … having a publicly “functional” company. The line demands you cut costs but also increase service. So basically overcorrection hell. Mass hirings into mass firings. Every quarter / two quarters depending on the company… until one of two things becomes true: ai works or ai no longer is the cheapest solution. I imagine that will rubberband for quite some time. (saas shit like oracle etc)

In short - I’d not expect this to be more than a brief reprieve from a rapidly drying well. Take advantage of it for now - but I’d recommend not expecting it to remain.

Agreed here. Frequently people charge these near where they sleep and the failure mode is… sudden. Couches and beds tend to be really good kindling too.

Urgency in this case is probably warranted.

Gonna be a lot of issues that come from this. Legally speaking. It’s already on the books that an IP address doesn’t represent a single person… so I’m not terribly clear on how they plan to enforce this even if it were to pass.

Charge it in the morning and it’s dead when you go to use it. Good news is: your bag is nice and warm now. That’s what you wanted, right? … right?

The initial release was a bit rough but holy shit that OS was basically magic when it was dialed in. 100% my favorite.

Next to no resource usage. Reasonably secure (for its time - especially compared to other offerings) … and all settings were right in reach.

No bullshit, no fluff. It played the os role perfectly. Run your shit and get the hell out of your way. I still believe they killed it off early to force people to switch. It was murdering the new os in performance benchmarks.

Sorry, were you quoting someone? I can’t see that anywhere else… but perhaps I missed it.
