Fuck off to hell with this shit

What do you mean “what happened?” They just debuted the latest model last week.

Beelink ME Mini

• Way too many videos
• Many of them redundant
• Frequency shows in the quality of his work
• Never says anything about where to buy products or how much they cost
• Clickbait central

I’ve seen several “creators” pointing to AI overviews as “evidence” of things without ever fact-checking them (because if you were interested in facts you wouldn’t bother with them anyway). I have family and friends send me AI-generated bullshit day in and day out.

It’s especially infuriating when they send me “but ChatGPT says…” about something I’m literally an expert in. Like I do this all day every day and you’re taking the word of a chatbot over me.

Yes, sadly I do not use it for the same reason.

Yes they’re supposed to be doing a video with Linus Torvalds soon.

No.

I tried it a while back. Doesn’t work without Google Play Services.

There is a good alternative called Zood location but its only for Android.

Can we count the mainstream tech tubers in recent months that have done these Linux/Bazzite videos?

• As much as I hate ETA Prime, I think he was one of the first
• PewDiePie
• Toasty Bros
• J2C
• Dawid Does Tech
• Ctrl Alt Rees
• Digital Foundry
• Lon.TV
• Chris Titus
• LTT soon

No shit. Hire a grifter, get grifted.

Every time I go to checkout a book on Libby it’s like 6-10 weeks’ wait. If I put a hold on it then I’m just not in a place to read/listen at that time and then I feel bad for hogging it instead.

Better to just pirate or buy from a non-DRM distributor.

YouTube is using “AI” to determine who is an adult and is allowed to access “adult” content. Predictably, it is wrong. A lot.

MiraCast

At one time it was great. Because it’s just become slowly shittier over the years. As any for-profit product becomes.

Yeah the whole idea that “the government isn’t allowed to collect/store that information” is immediately invalidated when they just buy it from private companies and get it from foreign countries spying on their own citizens through intelligence sharing agreements.

They’ve been working on it a lot longer than that but it’s still in Beta

It’s still fairly new, maybe they just haven’t gotten around to it yet? I’ve been wondering the same myself.

Yeah well:

1. That’s then and this is now
2. They haven’t even figured out how to effectively stop Apple so I’m not too confident in their abilities.

The company further claimed that the European Commission has almost exclusively focused its enforcement measures on Apple. The iPhone manufacturer has been targeted by the commission five times, which it says is more than all other competitors combined.

That’s because you have significantly more restrictions than all other competitors combined.
