I miss the times when I found 5" phones big. Now they just seem small because everything else is pushing 7"

I think the problem is more that there is a significant amount of research and politics that actively fights that conclusion. Why? “Meritocracy”

That works out to 12 hours per day, Monday through Friday, which Brin calls the “sweet spot of productivity.”

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH get fucked, assclown. The sweet spot of productivity is 6h per day, tops.

Besides, “torture yourself 12h a day so we can be the first to bring AI overlords into our world” is less likely to entice the workforce than “we’ll suck 100ml of blood off all of you in order to keep my skin young”

History repeating itself as a literal farce this time around

Which pizza parlor do you suppose they do their satanic rituals in?

We need to get off the internet. Or at least off lemmy. Probably better to get off the internet more often, otherwise we’ll just find something else :/

Were there any comments on lack of repairability or the obtuse insistence on removing physical keys?

Never enough dakka.

I think it’s worth mentioning that this isn’t the first time eth suffered a big attack and it also wouldn’t be the first time they’d hard fork to roll back on the transactions. An attack in 2016 was rolled back in 2017, creating the eth classic, which ignored the changes.

From the looks of one of the reviews, a 3-week long daily grind quest if you want to get the good stuff without paying. Plus “ACE” anti cheat which will remain installed after you uninstall the game and an overly long, forced tutorial.

Overall, possibly fun if you only intend to play it sporadically and don’t mind not having everything, or abandoning it within 1 or 2 months.

If a person uses a libre VoIP app, there is no need for cell service

I don’t follow. Don’t you need internet for VoIP? Unless the point is to have a phone that gets zero connection while outside a wifi, which sounds kinda pointless?

“Top metaverse creators”

You mean, fuckzuck’s metaverse or…?

top Roblox and Fortnite creators

Oh, those. Dunno how stuff is for fortnite creators, but roblox would probably get a much better deal than their current hamster wheel

It’s also super ironic that rockstar, who shutdown several GTA mods, is now looking into making their game “the place to make your mods EXPERIENCES”

I thought dick measuring contests in legal courts was the go-to “I have so much money and I don’t know how to spend it!” of big companies

Can we please go back to making programs for the target OS and skip the browser dependency?

Is there any minecraft clone that uses non-blocky character models? Or how would one go to mod Luanti to use different meshes for some of the characters?

I love how you spent so much effort to say literally fuck all, instead of presenting a real use case that isn’t pumping out AI slop

GPS apps made people forget how to navigate on their own

Not really, tho. It makes it easier to get to places you’re unfamiliar with easily. Maybe it makes the “becoming familiar” less important for the brain.

Given that even stack overflow is being mostly answered by AI, don’t expect that to actually get better, unless you’re counting on sensitive coding data being “legally” siphoned from AI users

executives act like parasites

WE MAED TEH PROFITZ!!!1!!1

there’s so much negligent work here I swear they did it on purpose.

Depending on the place, it’s the “work insurance” - companies would usually think twice before firing the only person who can understand the spaghetti. Now they won’t need said person to generate “working” code
