- Comment on Founder of Arkane Studios: "I think Gamepass is an unsustainable model that has been increasingly damaging the industry for a decade"; impacts sales 13 hours ago:
Instead of buying a license for a game for $70 you subscribe to a rental service that gives you access to 500 games for $10/month.
Or, instead of buying a $500 console or a $800 PC you just buy a $60 controller and you stream those games running on “the cloud” (=someone else’s console) for $15/month
Problem is that the service is provided by Microsoft at a loss and when they’ll get enough critical mass, they’ll enshittify it.
The economic proposition is good, but I think it’s just to teach gamers that “you’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy”

You mean Teams or the other incompatible Teams, with the colors inverted on the icon?

From the color and the amount of liquid in the result picture I seriously doubt that the core went even over 40 C

I clicked the ad to waste their ad budget and surprisingly they didn’t block comments (but zero comments with 400k views, probably they got deleted)

It is a serious problem when it’s not possible to know if a screenshot of a “truth” is actually true or it has been faked

When phones were made of plastic, yes
Like the Google Nexus 5X (with a vinyl on the back because they chose the shittiest rubbery coating that get sticky with permanent fingerprints)

- Comment on xAI’s Grok suddenly can’t stop bringing up “white genocide” in South Africa 1 month ago:
Can someone explain me how xai raised so many billions that they could have purchased xitter for an even more ridiculous amount of billions?
-
They are not a public company so there’s no stock manipulation
-
They are not selling API access to the public
-
They don’t have some sort of crypto coin scam that they could print when need some cash flow
Where those billions come from? It’s just melon charging ridiculous prices to his own companies? Like if Tesla needed some sort of ai api Key they’re going to pay xai 100000% over the market value? Isn’t that illegal, money laundering or something like that?

Especially denying/deporting refugees that will otherwise be killed for having helped the American government (example: Afghanistan)

AND complete it 1-2 months before release date to allow manufacturing and shipping.
They complete it 1-2 months AFTER release date now…

The worst part is that it’s technically possible to do that using the bd-live 2.0 specification

how the hell someone can use pinterest for more than one hour a week? Just accidentally browse it when trying to search an image on the web and curse the ux team to have hidden the download button in a way that you click the image and brings you in a completely unrelated site with 10000 images except the one you wanted

That Gemini chat in messages is also completely useless, as they didn’t implement a memory so the bot will lose context and give irrelevant responses immediately at the first reply.

I am so sick of that meta ai button that can’t be disabled in WhatsApp that I constantly paste the bee movie script just to let them pay hundreds of thousands of useless tokens. Hopefully one day they will block me or let me block that shit

According to Gemini, this photo is 100% real because “The image caption states it’s from 1948. AI image generation technology as we know it today did not exist at that time.”
Because we all know that’s completely impossible to write a fake caption over an image

I wonder how they bother to change the photo with a very similar but almost identical one but always copy-paste the same text, isn’t the opposite way easier?
