  • T-Mobile imposes $5 monthly price hike on customers using older plans

    Jump

  • I don't think you all understand, the T-Mobile CEO has a fiduciary duty to shareholders, which is a responsibility to act in their best interests and their sole interest is making money. If the CEO doesn't turn over every stone to find a way to make money or reduce costs, they're breaking the law.

    Oh wait, you all do understand this horseshit better than most. Lemmy is my sane place 🥰

  • Ford asks suppliers for ideas to cut EV costs in an all-win-or-lose push for profitability

    Jump

  • Yup, and it makes the car look more future-ish to impress potential buyers! It's a win for shareholders and a loss for safety and ease of use.

  • Ehh we can and should do better than T9. ...but then the phone might start to become fun to use, drawing you back in... Bring back T9!

  • FAA opens new Boeing probe after company admits it may have skipped some inspections

  • They should relocate their headquarters again, just too close to the factory still

  • The diagnosis is in—bad memory knocked NASA’s aging Voyager 1 offline

    Jump

  • Like most of you, my brain ingests random things and chews on them to produce weird nonsensical things, like when I go to the Midwestern US supercenter chain Meijer, I say if it somehow went into deep space, went through a black hole, and returned two hundred years later, it would be known as M'jer.

    I think of this every time I'm there.

  • Kids Are Watching Brain Melting AI-Generated Videos on YouTube Without Parents Realizing

    Jump

  • I'd argue YTP are better produced than what this article is talking about. I love absurdist humor, but this article is not talking about that. I've seen some stupid fucking shit get offered to my child to watch and would prefer her to watch YTPs instead. She's banned from watching YouTube kids by herself.

  • Kids Are Watching Brain Melting AI-Generated Videos on YouTube Without Parents Realizing

    Jump

  • Yeah, keep them off YT and YT Kids. Jesus, the stupid brain melting human-made videos are worse enough as it is and kids love watching this shit over well-produced content. The only time I allow my kid to watch YT Kids is when I can watch too and it's on my phone. Recently she started watching a video with an anamorphic cat that was pregnant with a Zombie baby. Of course, YT is the one that offered her this content to watch anyway.

    If you don't want to supervise what your kids watch, lock down their tablet or computer to only connect to streaming services you pay for. People are paid to produce this much higher quality content and then it is reviewed by people who know what should be acceptable for kids to watch. Compare this to some jackass on YouTube who can make the worst garbage imaginable, with or without the help of AI, and the YouTube algorithm is more than happy to shove it in your child's face. Which would you prefer your child to watch?

  • Tell me what it means

    Jump

  • Also:

  • Lemmy, what's your internet speed in mbps?

    Jump

  • Jesus, 10Gbps!? I'm paying $90 for "gigaspeed" AT&T fiber. But, I'm luckier than most, I have AT&T fiber and Metronet as fiber providers, as well as Spectrum and T-Mobile (but yuck to using 5G as my primary source of internet).

  • The Terrible Costs of a Phone-Based Childhood

    Jump

  • I'm tired of every few years the goal post for where one generation ends and another one begins keeps moving around. I demand that there be a ratifying organization that determines officially when generation s begin and end. So say we all!

  • Roku TV bricked until agreeing to new terms of service

    Jump

  • Not all. We employ these at my work for various applications such as movie playback and they have various brightness levels too. Look at LG Professional series or Dell LFDs.

  • Telcos are barely done rolling out 5G networks — and they're already talking about '5.5G'

    Jump

  • Oh, did you forget about the time LTE started rolling out and telcos decided to call HSPA+ (3.5G) 4G? One of these scumbags will start calling it 6G. Marketing teams are full of great ideas. /s

  • Roku TV bricked until agreeing to new terms of service

    Jump

  • Sucks... Here's your solution going forward, they're called LFDs or Commercial TVs. You're welcome. Downside is they may or may not have HDTV tuners, but there are options to get OTA channels that don't involve them.
