I mean, reality does have a liberal bias.

They’re not going to stop security updates, they’re going to charge for it. Not sure they really have any incentive to not charge for security updates…

Billionaires literally want the impossible

In 2015, 2.1 million people were still using AOL’s dial-up service. That revenue stream has dried up. The number of dial-up users is now “in the low thousands,” according to a person familiar with the matter. - Source (2021)

Imagine losing 10% of your paycheck quarter to quater…

Sort of surprised the reverse of the network effect isn’t as fast - but then I remember there’s still people paying AOL for internet.

Mostly due to the fact that mining bitcoin becomes harder as more and more are found, and the “worth” of that work no longer exceeds the cost in electricity to do so.

In the past, it was basically free money, especially with how volatile it’s value is/was

Seems like they have physical concept cars they’ve built based off the Arstechnica article.

This plus Fusion would be amazing.

I wonder what level of writing it performs if you were to remove all of his tweets from the database before building the model…

Here’s an article about it from Mar 5 for those who don’t want to listen/watch.

Interesting that it could perform better, but regardless enter meltdown status… I wonder if they tested Human+AI…

The fact it entered some conspiracy mode is… maybe that says something about us, lol

Police anytime students protest:

As just one example, if a famous person makes an account, and then a spammer makes an identically-named account, just on another instance, then the famous person’s followers could get confused.

Tbf, you can basically do this now - throwback to the start of paying for Twitter verification…

On Mastodon, the simple answer is you use the verification to prove it’s you by using rel=me links.

It’s not perfect, as you’d expect, but in an age where everything is suspect anyway…

In a transcript of the call seen by Reuters, Wang Laichun said the tariffs would have little impact on profits and revenue, as Luxshare exported only a small amount of finished products to the United States.

And doesn’t that just explain the reason why manufacturing jobs are not going to return to the US.

Aside from the proprietary bit, there’s also an argument over companies existing for so long also just perpetuating wealth inequality since the same families hoard the wealth that the company generates. I wish I could remember where I saw the argument (I feel like it was probably an article associated with NPR), I found the arguments against allowing companies to reach 100 years old quite compelling.

I’m not so certain

Damn, if only we had some sort of predictor

Also the most accessible - just literally go to a website - don’t even have to login if you don’t want.

DeepSeek you have to install a fucking chrome extension (good luck doing that at work), or you have to create an account.

OpenAI still following the bigtech trend of “get them hooked for free, then make money”

You’re missing an opportunity to say Fuck Dolan.

Also, incredibly creepy - this means they crawled his Facebook page to get his face and then used the creepy surveillance program to pick him up.

Imagine being the security dude working for this company and going “yea boss, we can make sure the guy saying mean words is banned”

Shit, I’m probably banned now. Fuck Dolan.

Imagine being this petty.

I’d start selling the t-shirts outside the venue.
