  • probably the same reason I refused to leg it go.

    I actually own it, control it, and can use it at my wimsy.

    vs streaming, which I could buy it and still have it taken away from me cause you never own anything when its streaming/digital download.

  • worker productivity continues to climb ever higher, yet wages never grow with it.

    take someone from the 1950s office and ask them to do the same amount of work that an officer worker today does, and they'd quit on the spot. especially since they'd be paid less today than they were in the 1950s as far as buying power goes.

  • No, I dont use it.

    I get enough hallucinations and blatant lies from biologicals, I don't need an AI erasing a mountain to consume the coal underneath to tell me made up bullshit.

  • remember that ram drive that gigabyte made like 20+ years ago?

    That worked by putting sticks of ram in it, with... i think AA batteries? to maintain the data during power downs?

  • AI is the last great bubble.

    And it, like all bubbles, will pop.

    You are already seeing the people in the know flee the field.

    You see reports that every company that has adopted it has at best changed nothing, at worst lost money on it.

    Outside of the psychotic linked in CEO bubble, literally no one wants AI. And every day its generating more and more hate due to its halucinations, mistakes, and bullshit.

    Its garnering massive negative attention for its use, and for anyone stupid enough to adopt it at this point (cough intel cough)

    Its a dying star, and people are frantically trying to harvest the last bits of warmth from it before going off in search of new horizons.

  • probably wont delete the other data either. just make it so the profile doesnt show as existing anymore and claim its deleted.

    These companys are addicted to data and will never give it up.

  • You don't have to be a sociopath to be a CEO, but most CEOs are sociopaths.. because sociopathic traits, mostly lack of empathy and zero issue with being horribly manipulative, are traits that tend to be selected for to move up to this level.

  • YouTube adds new hurdles for ad blockers, and there's currently no way around it

    Jump

  • Even if you limit it to 720p, if it were to be even a quarter as popular as youtube, the bandwith and storage requirements would still be astronomical.

    not to even mention the computational power required to process and transcode all that data from whatever format you upload it to, into whatever format the platform wants.

  • Theres a reason that youtube has no real competitor.

    because the amount of data that gets uploaded to youtube every day, every hour, is unfathomable.

    I dont even know if its possible to create a proper competitor to youtube at this point. Just from a data center/harddrive point of view alone, the amount of money would be so staggering as to be impossible for anyone but another giant evil company to have a hope at being able to afford it.

    There is no real way to compete with youtube directly.

    Only options are things that are not direct youtube competitors, Which are typically much smaller, possibly maintaining a narrow subject focus, and require monthly fees/subscriptions to access

  • Depends on who you consider the main character in Fallout TV is.

    I would certainly prefer to be a cowboy gunslinger, rather than professionally naive idiot, or immature emotionally underdeveloped idiot.

  • THen your drivers are borked, or something else is horribly broken, cause I played Cyberpunk on Windows with a 6700 on a rx580 Red Devil (I didnt get the 6700 until later), on mostly medium settings, and got playable FPS, way back when the game released, when it was far less optimized and far more buggy.
