  • Stadia was still a system you buy. What I'm talking about here is having a browser based gaming system where any computer could be used to play games, for subscription price of course.

    There are in fact currently places on the web that offer such services for Minecraft.

    And I'll bet you anything they'll make the subscription price really low at first. Borrowing from the Netflix model... Then, once consoles and PCs have been outmoded and no one owns anything, they jack the price up.

  • I said GTA 6 will be the introduction. Not the closer.

    As any drug dealer can tell you, you have to give them a taste in order to get them addicted then you can start to really charge them for the good stuff.

  • I'd like to see you try to build a PC right now for less than $1,500. The cornered the market on all of the parts necessary to make a computer that can run games well.

  • I love how nobody here is getting me actual picture. They're not going to sell Xbox to people anymore. What's going to happen is they're going to turn to a subscriber model where you have to log into a data center that they control and use your browser to play video games. Paying a monthly subscription for the privilege of playing their exclusive games. In fact I will bet money that the first product that will be introduced with this feature is going to be the highly anticipated upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6.

    Mark my words. Either at the time of release or shortly thereafter they're going to introduce the ability to subscribe to play GTA 6 in your browser on a remote gaming system. And then they're going to phase out physical Xbox systems over the next couple of years.

  • It seems Elmo and Trump kissed and made up and are now wiping each other's asses again.

  • Honestly it probably scraped Time Cube so they have already got that kind of nonsense in the system.

  • Welppp

  • Not for nothing. Trump and his friends made butt loads of money!!! And any day that money is going to come trickling down to the average Joe just like it's supposed to... any day now.

  • Now we just have to survive the final throws of the lead brained boomers that have taken complete control of every aspect of our government.

  • I wonder how Mamdani will handle these situations. Does he have the authority to tell Times Square to shut down their power consumption?

  • Ladybird Browser adopts Rust, with help from AI

    Jump

  • Hive mind would imply that people are simply following along and not making decisions on their own. I read the article and was thinking that the way they went about it was a fairly good use of AI to actually implement code.

    Then I read the article posted by someone in this comment section about how the author and creator of ladybird is not only a homophobic asshole but an out and out racist. If you support him and use this then you are, by association, a homophobe and a racist.

    So fuck you 🖕 as well.

  • Only Congress can declare war, anything else is just a "police action". That used to actually mean something...in the 1800s. It lost its meaning with good ol' Teddy Roosevelt.

  • Yeah give me that line again after your house actually has burned down and you have to fight tooth and nail to get any money from the insurance company that you've been paying to for the last X number of years.

  • They will actually make a payment in your name to the account and that will keep the debt alive for at least a year or two.

  • If the debt is large enough, the companies will use a myriad of tricks to keep the debt alive long after it is supposed to expire.

  • Around 50 years of near constant propaganda from our media convincing people that the government paying for anything is destructive to the economy and that taxing rich people more that poor people is not fair.

  • No, what this means is that they have increased premiums for anyone at 33 weeks of pregnancy and added something about premature births that will cost more if you're traveling to America. Either that or put in specific language excluding coverage for premature births. Either way, insurance companies are a scam.

  • Just a stark reminder that all insurance, no matter where you get it from and what country it originates in, is 100% a scam.

  • Under British and UK Legislation anyone using or developing end-to-end encryption is now a “hostile actor”

  • Not running down Signal or any other e2ee client out there. But there are in fact ways to prevent the recipient from retaining and, at least via the device they are using to receive the messages, copying the data within messages. Several banking apps actually include such measures. And perhaps even having a Mission Impossible-esque self destruct on the message where it re-encrypts and then deletes the messages after they have been viewed is a viable way to prevent retention. It would not prevent somebody from using another device to snap a picture of the information in the message, but it would definitely cut down on people's ability to easily leak private conversations that are intended to stay that way.
