No u

I appreciate being able to check if I remembered to lock the doors.

How exactly does that work with a keyfob…?

I’d like to see a Sankey graph of where Valve’s money goes before I praise them that much for helping out a Linux distribution a bit.

I’d say it’s a lot more than “a bit”. It’s an enormous amount of help that pretty much everyone in the Linux (professional) community can, has, and will attest to.

I don’t agree that they’re a monopoly, because they’ve done absolutely nothing to prevent competition. Other stores do it to themselves.

I do agree though that their fees are exorbitant and their contributions to Linux are a teeny tiny fraction of their wealth, but I appreciate it regardless.

and a way to tell Windows that they could go without them if they don’t collaborate.

Ehhhh it’s a step in that direction. But as long as 96% or whatever of their users run Windows, it’s hardly much of a bargaining tool.

I do think that’s what they’re working for. After all Windows could flip a switch at any time and royally fuck them.

I wasn’t trying to make an argument either way. Just stating facts…

Honestly the quality of games is the tip of the iceberg.

This is going to be one of those “Ubisoft investigates Ubisoft and found that Ubisoft did nothing wrong at Ubisoft”-situations, isn’t it?

No, this is going to be one of those “our stocks are tanking and investors want someone’s head on a pike” sort of meeting.

Ah, that makes more sense, thanks.

Because the vast majority of the time it’s correct and often extremely useful.

For example, I spent 20 minutes looking for a solution yesterday with no luck and CGPT spit it out in 3 seconds, and it worked.

Yes, AI will give bad outputs, but if you’re not dumb enough to put glue on your pizza, or not actually verify important information, you’ll be fine.

They can overhaul it and resecure it all they want but it doesn’t matter because no one trusts them, because they’ve been giving you a plethora of reasons not to for decades. And it would take them decades to earn it back, if they actually tried.

You don’t know what you’re talking about.

I’m so confused. I thought this was illegal?

The OpenAI non-profit will continue to exist and own a minority stake in the for-profit company

Wait what? Are they restructuring to a for-profit or not? They already have a separate for-profit company.

Ai is ruining the internet.

It won’t kill you

It literally will.

Pros and cons, for sure. Companies like Proton (Mail) and Steam are proof that you can have your cake and eat it too. It’s mostly publicly-funded corporations that are rotten. You can also rest assured that they will not abandon the project because they get bored.

Ente also provides Ente Auth for free, which is an excellent TOTP authenticator.

Possibly. Nothing is open source so we don’t really know what they’re doing.

Yes, except it’s encrypted and funded by an actual business.

Man, I’ll never understand this “car is too hot for me to sit in” to be honest.

Probably because you don’t live in a hot climate?

The interior of a car here can get up to 150 degrees. And the bits and bobs inside can get even hotter. I’ve gotten second degree burns from the seatbelt.

Now imagine you’re out exercising for 3 hours in 107 degree heat. Or working for 6-8 hours in it. Getting in that car might literally kill you.

“Not good enough” = not important to you

“no good reason” = the benefits dont exist.

These are not the same.

Lol, okay. Which one?

LOL literally all of them, unless you’re standing near the car.

Remember that car manufacturers have the ability to put a SIM card in cars.

…and they do. That SIM card is useless without internet…
