I’m drooling at the thought.

Who would have thought that another merger would not lead to lower prices for the consumer? Break all these companies until there’s like 10.
Never responded. I didend up buying a keychron. They didn’t have the blues in stock, so I bought one with browns and ordered blue switches. They also were out of the model that had Wi-Fi, but I figured Bluetooth is fine. Turns out, I love the brown switches. Also, I realized my rig is so old and randomly upgraded that I don’t even have Bluetooth.
Anyway, it’s the best keyboard I’ve ever owned. Works great with my various laptops. I now enjoy typing. Many thanks for the recommendation.
Well that’s terrifying… I might watch the show if it ever comes out
Not sure what changes, but it’s scary how much Google controls. Even if we just broke off YouTube from them, that would be a big deal.
Ideally we would split their search engine, YouTube, and chrome each into two competing companies. (Google A, Google B, Chrome A, Chrome B, YouTube A, YouTube B)
Because Google has so much power they can make changes that will break search results, websites, and browsers if you don’t accept changes that are beneficial to them.
Feels like that blatant violation should be prison time for anyone involved.
For games that actually come with all of their content? Not at all.
For games that have pay to win, scummy dlc, etc. Extremely.
And Google is bringing AI to private text messages. It will read all of your previous messages. On iOS? Better hope nothing important was said to anyone with an Android phone (not that I trust Apple either).
The implications are terrifying. Nudes, private conversations, passwords, identifying information like your home address, etc. There’s a lot of scary scenarios. I also predict that Bard becomes closet racist real fast.
We need strict data privacy laws with teeth. Otherwise corporations will just keep rolling out poorly tested, unsecured, software without a second thought.
AI can do some cool stuff, but the leaks, misinformation, fraud, etc., scare the shit out of me. With a Congress aged ~60 years old on average, I’m not counting on them to regulate or even understand any of this.
Trustworthiness in the platform is dead. Musk uses it like his personal sandbox. Advertisers are quickly pulling out. I don’t know how they’re possibly financially staying afloat.
Twitter was so engrained in communication that it’s difficult for many users to leave (sports, etc.). So, I agree, it’s not dead yet, but Musk seems to be doing everything he can to poison the well.
I can’t imagine how removing the communications department from a company that specializes in communication seemed like a good idea…
My Linux knowledge isn’t what it used to be, but I believe you can easily make a thumb drive with a bootable distro. I would recommend taking whatever you choose for a test drive before you wipe a working system. That way you can see if there’s any weird stuff that doesn’t want to work.
Might be decent exposure for the store though. It’s pretty easy to see stuff at IKEA and be like yeah, I have been meaning to pick up a new wobbly stool. Better grab some weird candy too.
I can’t fathom having the power to save our at least change millions of lives…but instead choose to leech more wealth from the people that need it most. And systematically make the world worse. It’s a sickness.
There are no good billionaires.
Everyone laughs like this is obvious, but I really struggle to do this. I’m not sure if it’s an ADHD thing, but I just can’t make myself go to bed at night. Extremely tired? Nah, I’d better wait until I hit a second wind. There’s unimportant stuff I’d rather do.
