And cyberpunk is not supposed to be an inspiration.

I would love to see a documentary about this at some point.

I feel like Disney is generally known to fit the “big evil corporation” stereotype, but surely this wasn’t always the case.

When did perception change? What where the first big fuckups?

For tv shows and movies:

Older content is rapidly disappearing/getting less accessible. Especially non english content. Shout out to do your part in legally archiving digital media from public libraries.

At the same time new media is pushed build on Existing mega franchises, everything is the same format with the same formula with no higher goal then the profit-margin.

online: is a different story because google owns it. They decide how youtube presents content to users, what do’s and don’ts get punished or get you recommended more.

Again no goal higher then the profit margin,1 ad for a 30 minute video is not as efficient as 1 every so many shorts. And because shorts are more random and your just consuming the flos its harder to tell the ads apart.

Because shorts are optimised on phone, google also rules how 50% of people use their phone it pushes more people to this more exploitative and less ad blockade device.

Good content still exists, its just a lot harder to find because promoting it is less profitable.

Their is a word for this kind of things falling apart to chase profit. Its enshitification.

Plot twist:

His wife is invited to the same party.

He did not tell her about the sweater beforehand.

Their kink is public sex.

They got found doing the dirty in the kitchen and THAT is why they are no longer invited to parties.

This administrations brand is to sell government work (or non work) for personal favours and there literally accepting “exposure” as payment to signal how normalised they made it.

If you are a big enough name they don’t care how petty the bribe is. As long as it shows the world that they are open for this kind off business.

Every bribe, no matter how small is pure profit if you never owned what you’re selling.

I have done research into what product i should buy three times and i am still not sure enough to answer this. That says enough about how confusing the modern tech market is.

They are definitly proprietary and a competitor to LDAC from sony. Finding something that supports both sennheiser and sony headsets without being overpriced is a nightmare.

The renaming while still selling it with older packaging for years has been angering me since it happend.

Honestly it would not be so much of a problem if things where actually labeled appropriately with all the actual specs and support features on the package but its more profitable to keep you guessing (and going for the higher priced one just in case)

They do the same thing with Bluetooth audio transmission usb, their “high quality audio” and “ps5 compatible” but does not tell me wether it supports aptx or not?

Also the whole “buy a product clearly pictured with usb A type connector, receive a usb C type connector variant, if lucky, with an added adapter.

Cannot find the source for the pick but there is this where Bernie covers all the same points in different words:

I like to use dashes myself but the combination of overuse with other tells often does make me suspicious.

Which isn’t bad, even an intellectual can write things wrong, as ai can also write things right. Always read critically.

I didn’t think dashes where out of place here, but i did get a real ai vibe of the last paragraph. Is this something Bernie is really considering or is something to round up a generated list of scary scenarios. (Which are all existing valid concerns still)

I will approximately upvote this in an almost festive fashion!

Sorry, 1/3 based on the 8 hours of sleep 8 hours of work 8 hours of free time structure.

You forget the part where you spend *1/3 of your day (if not more) performing complex operations mostly for the sake of “number goes up” because that is important to something called “the economy”.

The part you describe is actually the “free time” part of the day.

I think a field sobriety test usually involves more then one test, at least if you can communicate a reasonable reason why you may fail one.

I believe they may also just look at your behaviour during the interaction.

“Couldn’t walk a straight line but mentioned a recent leg surgery”

Vs

“Couldn’t walk a straight line but believed they did, started an argument about it. Failed secondary test while continuing to insist they passed the first test”

Does it feed more beasts then using github in general does?

On the one (windows) machine i actively use powershell i click the pinned start menu icon.

Windows has fucked my flow before by co opting my shortcuts. So this is the most reliable way.

On linux terminal is a shortcut, app launcher is a shortcut and searching apps to launch actually works and doesn’t open my browser that operates under a different privacy contract then your os settings.

I despised windows search long before i switched i just didn’t know any better.
