OP, can you just keep using this account at least?
I feel like I seen these same posts a couple days in a row, and always from brand new accounts
I keep blocking them, but you seem to be deleting and making new ones.
If you keep the same account, even tho you get downvoted, you’ll eventually get less down votes as people block you
If you keep creating new accounts, the people who clearly don’t want to see it are gonna keep down voting, but also blocking.
Everyone wins
There’s a huge rabbit hole with HDMI certification…
Like, display port is better in everyway, but people make a shit ton of money off putting “HDMI certified” on products, so that’s still the default.
If it bursts the world wide economy collapses, because most “wealth” is loans against stock, which are then invested in stocks driving the price up.
I think we’re past a trillion sunk into the ponzi scheme just in AI stock, but if it goes down banks call in their loans triggering automatic sales of whatever collateral they used.
Billions and billions being sold automatically regardless of price would cause cascading crashes…
But if it works…
Corps can fire the majority of their employees and starving desperate people turn to Mad Max after a few consecutive missed meals.
The US is doing a pretty good job of replicating one era of Roman history…
You know the only thing more ridiculous than buying a toilet with a built in camera?
In October Kohler launched Dekota, a $600 (plus monthly subscription) device that attaches to the rim of your toilet and collects images and data from inside
Buying a camera to attach to an existing toilet, that has a monthly device fee that costs more than a fucking toilet does.
Maybe sprinkling 1337 into our online texts would make them less useful to AI training
No, it wouldn’t.
I think search engines didn’t work with it;
No, they worked fine. It doesn’t take much for a computer program (especially search engines and chatbots) to recognize two words spelled differently have similar meanings.
Go misspell anything into a search engine, whichever you use, and notice how it suggests a correct spelling.
So if a few people try this, it’s not enough to have an effect. If enough people to have an effect do it, then the program quickly learns leetspeak.
But that doesn’t stop people from constantly having this idea
You’re acting like that’s a common scenario…
There’s a few small slices of area in a minority of states where you might be legally allowed to pick, but that is not a guarantee there’s more than one option.
To my knowledge most of them are artificial monopolies anyways.
Like, in Perfectville your choice between any available provider is legally protected. However company A and company B made a handshake deal to draw a line down the area and not provide service on one side of the line.

Very few of those green states are for electricity
And if you just meant:
Non profit = good
Then I’m going to have to explain an entirely different thing…
And I’m not optimistic about our chances to be honest
Bullshit.
You really think companies in America with monoplies would lower prices just because their costs went down?
I wish I lived in an America like that…
People thought they’d hang onto CDs and DVDs too…
Good luck…
Even when the bubble bursts, they’re going to have an insane amount of computing power just sitting there, it will get sold off in bankruptcy proceedings, and some company will gobble it up and operate at a loss while continuing to secure future supply contracts.
There’s a very real chance that we’re witnessing the slow death of home computing.
The way things shake out it might end up being prohibitively expensive compared to cloud computing, and once that’s the norm they price gouge like Walmart did to destroy small businesses.
Instead of dropping a couple grand for a PC every couple years, we’ll have steady contracts paying for month at a time indefinitely.
they still have Respawn making Star Wars games.
I mean, that’s an exclusivity thing again…
From 2013 to 2023 only EA could work on Star Wars games. It was supposed to be a bunch of high quality epic games…
We got a couple that were decent because there’s no alternatives. And most of the time was wasted on battlefront and it’s terrible micro transactions.
Like…
"The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking different heroes.
Literally came from the beginning of that exclusivity deal…
EA:
We can go lower
Like, everyone knows that EA is a terrible company, but it’s insane how they continually lower the bar. It’s honestly impressive how EA keeps innovating new ways to piss off consumers.
If they ever lose their sports exclusivity contracts, they’re cooked.
Madden and FIFA is why they’ll never stop being profitable
The sentiment is shifting from anti-russia to pro-russia.
What shit hole corner of the Internet are you hanging out where pro-russia content is becoming the norm?!
And why would you think AI chatbots would do better against them than actual humans?
Oh…
Yeah, just make a new account on a new instance and block your old one
This is a good thing…
Not for people buying Steam machines, but developers now have an incentive to optimize instead telling people to upgrade their PC. “Steam machine verified” is going to equate to more sales.
“We are birthing superintelligence. We are creating the mind of God, infinite, destined to solve every problem we’ve ever faced and usher in an age without death.”
What brain rotted CEO grifter is that quote even from?
Most oxygen produced on earth and CO2 consumed is done by algae.
Thats more because of total biomass, and the difference is we’re basically a ball of water.
Prebuilts have become about the only way to get a deal for a while now.
Whatevere, whatever, if closeness to platfroms my and languages, their AI pick, are a statement
We’re cooked…
Wasn’t the studios fault
They fought to change the name since the beginning because they knew it would be impossible to deliver a real sequel and while this name might get initial sales it would cause blowback killing the game almost immediately…
Which is exactly what happened.
Like, they’d have loved to make Masquerade 2, but they weren’t given the time or funds to make it.
Yeah, it’s not that people don’t like the lemmy.ml users, or even really their mods…
It’s (at least one of) the admins.
If they see something they don’t like on their server, they delete it and give a very very short ban. Because they don’t want those people gone. They want them enraged and chomping at the bit to come back.
It’s ran like a troll instance, and it’s not alone.
The only time they permanently ban someone, is when they see someone in a neutral place they can’t control talking about it. Advocate for people blocking them, and they don’t want anyone signed up to their instance seeing your comments
