Yeah, I’d love to see that too. I just see way too little of that happening. By the time they get regulated or held accountable the damage has been done and all they need to do is pay a fine that’s smaller than what they made. Malicious compliance la dee da. In California I think literally is a law that lets companies can buy their way out of anything violation of the law. Basically legalized corruption I guess

Social media ain’t the same breed though. They’re advertising platforms who don’t give a shit about anyone or anything but money. And they make more than companies generating real value. TikTok shows misogyny and violence within half an hour and TikTok is totally fine showing this for as long as they make money with it. Just like Insta and the rest. Back then with MySpace, etc the algorithms weren’t exactly great at keeping us addicted. At some point we simply logged off and didn’t come back. It’s not the same thing

Good riddance then

Yeah, it seems clear to me that they intented to enable it in the future. But of course the CEO left that out barking at someone else instead. “Experimental”, sure. Certainly wasn’t internal anymore. Hypocrite. Tech companies managed to shatter my trust in them. They gambled my customer loyalty away. Now, if I don’t like something, I switch. Byeee

If you actually want to support artists, don’t. YouTube Music’s royalty payout is far from stable and transparent, not to mention low to others which is already hard to beat really. Tidal comes closest (from what I found to having functionality and paying artists a more fair rate. Qobuz is there too, Deezer pioneers detecting AI garbage that people think makes them artists now. Spotify got most features ofc but they’re unethical as shit

Oh, yes. Good question. I can’t speak for those days. I’m largely speaking largely about the Azure related documentation over the past 5 years or so

True that and I like the occasional car game as well. Definitely cheaper. Personally, I just find it crazy how much game prices have increased over the last couple years.

And the gaming market has grown quite a bit, so that’s why they can do it I guess? Idk. And are people escaping more in general these days or are people simply escaping differently, so watching less TV etc? Would be interesting to learn about actually but maybe that’s a different discussion

Ah, Windows VM on Linux. I thought the other way around. I mean if you don’t have much of another choice I guess that’s all you got but most things work on Linux now, so why do it indeed. GPU pass through works with many VM programs tho afaik

Nice! Curious to see what cloud it’s gonna be

totally makes sense…

Linux is way less bloatware than Windows. Hard not to really

For years, I’ve rather read Stackoverflow comments than Microsoft’s nearly unusable documentation. It’s as if they don’t know how to write coherently

Yeah but why? I am worried about people if they’re willing to spend $120 on a video game

120$ and beating all predecessors? Why the hell has gaming become this important to people’s lives?
