Ah, that was my first question: Where the hell does Gamestop take that kind of money from? I am actually surprised they “only” need to borrow 20bn.

I hate these download pages that partner with scammy hosting providers. They are always shit to use and want some payment data and they make it intentionally difficult to not buy those premium accounts. Fuck all of them.

“Doctor, I have severe chest pain. Do I have a heart attack?”

“Computer says no.”

For small values of “a lot”. I am in the same boat, there are not many German audio books.

For families, Tidal is even cheaper. But it’s majority owned by that Twitter asshole Jack Dorsey. Just another fucking billionaire.

There’s a window of attention for public discourse and there’s fatigue. We, as a group, can only be upset about so much. It’s a tried tactic to just try to distract us with some crazy shit, like Trump did with the alien files. If one crazy thing comes up in the news, other stuff will drop from our radar. And that’s why people try shit again and again and again. Always in the hope that this time people are distracted by other stuff or are finally worn down enough.

Why do I feel the declaration will be garbage and just allow tech bros to continue their bullshit.

It angers me when people use the US as an example to aspire to. The US are so broken and fucked up, if they’re doing something the default reaction should be to not do it because it’s most likely some idiotic, fucked up thing. They are a negative example.

Apparently this article already made the rounds in 2022. Newsweek was writing about it back then: https://www.newsweek.com/resurfaced-1978-article-sexualizing-brooke-shields-12-sparks-outrage-high-times-1718907

They say “the author, bylined as Ed Dwyer”, which to me sounds as it might’ve been a pseudonym.

He’s Trump’s press secretary now.

I agree. I think that all AI companies need to crash and burn. But it’d be disingenuous to claim that what these models are doing is completely different than what humans are doing. Humans don’t pull stuff out of thin air. We are products of our upbringing and schooling. I say that, because I hate our current copyright laws with a burning passion and have done so long before LLMs showed up. It’s possible to hate copyright and AI companies.

When this whole thing with Lily Allen was a thing, where she got more from posting feet pic on OnlyFans than from Spotify, someone posted an article that said Spotify is paying out like 150k-200k per month just for her streams. And yet only a tiny fraction of that ends up with her. Music labels fucking suck.

And here we see someone realizing that “the market” is just made up and it’s all just gambling under another name.

It’s probably a new manager for each iteration and they need to leave their mark by choosing a different name.

The amount of physical and engineering issues required to do this is insane. Veritasium just published a documentary about ASML’s chip fabs: https://youtu.be/MiUHjLxm3V0

As Samsung is blocking custom ROMs with OneUI 8, I seriously need to look into alternatives. Does anyone have good experience with a custom ROM on a S25 Ultra? The only thing I really worry about are my banking apps. I need those to work.

I think it’s that and also more and all of it is wrong and disgusting.

Fwiw, I want as much screen as possible. Why waste space?

Well, I’ve always been curious what a ruthless person would do with all that DNA data. I’ll finally find out.

That’s not a combination of words I expected to see today.
