And every time you do, the next shit has a harder time sticking.
Stadia was doomed from the start because nobody was willing to commit to it in fear of Google killing it, and that meant it wouldn’t get enough users and would get killed.
Now I want someone to create an entirely pointless version of Wavacity running with Electron.
Currently you don’t.
The real underlying issue for this all is that the “Hot” sorting algorithm Lemmy (and Kbin) uses is terrible - if someone posts the same thing in 5 different big & popular (i.e “hot”) communities at the same time, there’s a good chance you’ll see all those five posts all next to each other on your feed even if one has 100 votes and the others have 30 - note how they are all “6 hours ago”.
There actually are updates to it as for the last three years Microsoft has continued to patch it under the commercial “Extended Security Update” program - that only ended in January 2023.
You just couldn’t get them as a home user without doing a lot of tweaking on your own.
Ah, the Desire Z was amazing. Used to play doom and pokemon in it as well, the keyboard worked great as a controller.
Countless services exist where you can buy captcha solving, though currently it’s done by actual humans in developing countries for tiny pay. Yet another job that’s going to soon be replaced by AI, though this time it almost certainly will result in some people starving to death.
And by “after they’ve thoroughly exhausted all options to continue making money there”, you mean that they stopped royalty payments and investments Mach last year and have been trying to sell the business since then in an effort to avoid taking the massive financial hit of bankrupting and abandoning the 107 franchises and 68 restaurants they own.
Which is the sensible thing to do, as otherwise you just give them all as a free gift to the Russians.
But there would be no-one to do so. In a copyrightless world George R.R Martin would need to have another job to pay the bills and wouldn’t be able to dedicate his time for writing, and HBO or anyone else pouring massive amounts of money to create shows also wouldn’t be able to exist as they would gain no profit from what they do as their creations would also be in the public domain. Unless you live in an utopia with universal income and replicators that completely eradicate any need for money or ownership of anything, copyright itself as a concept is vital, the issue is just how corrupted the current system has become - which is mostly due to the greed of Disney.
To give an example, if all books were automatically public domain HBO could have created Game of Thrones without paying George R.R. Martin a single cent for it, then publish and sell “Game of Thrones: The Book”, aka the entire Song of Ice and Fire series, again without paying him anything and stealing all of his profit in the process.
Not yet. But mysk has said he wants to make X like WeChat, which has payment and sending money as one of the key features.
If the service is decent enough with servers close by, it really isn’t bad at all. In a PCgamer test, the input latency for Metro Exodus and Destiny 2 went from 46ms and 51ms local to 96ms and 75ms from GeForce Now, and 179ms and 129ms from Stadia.
For comparison, back when Tekken 7 was released on the PS4, it had 120ms of input lag.
Youtube knows I have subscribed to 515 channels, I have liked 2364 videos and favourited 685. It already floods the recommended videos with others based on "Users who follow\ enjoy videos of ".
They for sure do not require my watch history to be able to recommend videos to me.
The Java Team posted that they would be leaving and stopping official communications on reddit.
It’s simple really, the thing he owns is x.com, so he’s just gonna… oh bugger, XCOM.
Changed to X Æ A-XII because numbers weren’t legal, pronounced “X Ash A Twelve”, nicknamed “X”. And the second was Exa Dark Sideræl (pronounced sigh-deer-ee-el), now known just as “Y” or, according do Grimes, “?”, because it’s pronounced “Why”.
So Musk has children called X and Y, two companies called SpaceX and X, and Tesla has Models S, 3 (E), X, Y.
Why Musk? No, not you, I’m asking your dad.
Because it’s doesn’t make enough money.
I believe the automatic archiving has to be manually enabled by going to the settings, selecting the general tab and enabling “Auto save page”.
It’s an investigation because they don’t know every single thing yet, like if the boy even was alive or not when he got thrown overboard as there are eye witness reports saying he was slumped and unmoving in his wheelchair hours earlier.
What started the murder & suicide investigation that does not have any other suspects was surveillance video evidence that disproved the initial assumption that the mother jumped after him to save him. Not a lot of possibilities for who get the “murdered” and who the “murderer & suicide” labels there.
Also something everyone else learned is not a good idea as perfidy results in the enemy assuming you are doing it and executing anyone wounded or actually trying to surrender. But Russia seems to have missed most of the memos documenting what actually did and didn’t work during WW2 - like if you actually want someone to surrender, try not to rape, torture and kill all their civilians and soldiers, as that tends to make the rest of them angry.
