Man I love it when billionaire assholes finally figure out what the rest of the world has been saying since the beginning.

I want to get used to the pads. I have a deck and never use them. Was there a game that helped you get used to the pads?

Logitech hardware: pretty good!

Logitech software: worst shit I’ve ever seen.

Logitech AI: Dead-drunk Skynet telling you to lick your fans.

We have never rejected fanaticism.

The revolution was built on fanatical ideas and ideals of American exceptionalism and where was propaganda to support that.

The civil was started primarily because the wealthy didn’t want to give up free labor (slaves) but a lot of individuals supported it because they felt the big scary northern government was attacking their homes and they had to defend them and their way of life (still, slavery,).

Pretty much every war is sold based on fanaticism. The Spanish American war was wholesale created by yellow journalism. The world wars were a bit different because America was very isolationist then and it needed a push.

Overall America isn’t an exception here. Most humans need to be fanatical to really do big things like war or revolution.

Wonder if a parent company could own them both.

Pornhub should buy a VPN service. Just cut out the middle man.

Why would he get in trouble? Sony only owns 15% of From. And who the hell would fire him? That’d be like firing Kojima. And we see how that turned out for Konami.

In 2022, Endacott unsuccessfully ran in a local election under the Conservative Party

Of course an AI tech grifter would be a Tory.

The same way that Full Self Driving works: not at all.

I’d rather people not engage with it at all.

It really annoys me how often I see major media others citing reddit these days. It seems it really ramped up after the IPO. It’s never anything good either. They’re just either outsourcing basic journalism or complaining that reddit is too negative.

but what happens if Cara get’s sold and the new company decides to change it

Same thing that happens if a federated instance goes bad: you leave?

Well the US Constitution does so it doesn’t really fucking matter, does it Kansas?

Yeah. With non-pixel phones you can still get SD cart slots, headphone jacks, etc. I think motorola still has cheaper phones that has those things.

It wouldn’t because USBC doesn’t have those expensive standard requirements.

Wow that sucks. I’m glad I’m not in the apple ecosystem.

Yes, they still exist. I am both salaried and clock my hours. I have to clock 80/2 weeks and I need approval to clock more than that. If I do, I get comp time or overtime if pre-approved. Including for traveling for work. I don’t clock my actual times, just hours worked per day. So no annoying 15min accountability that I’ve heard of from other companies. I think I technically have to take a 30min lunch but I haven’t heard noises about that for like, a decade. We’ve got hours we need to be available technically as well (9-3). I’m also 80% telework and I despise that 1 day a week I sit on the same Teams calls in the office.

Which is weird because neither of those things are illegal. You can absolutely tape the radio. You just can’t distribute it. Just like you can copy your own media for your own use as much as you want.

This may just be a semantic argument. Media production can consider it piracy, but that’s irrelevant as it had no legal standing. Without a law prohibiting something, it’s legal. And the fact that they sued and lost means it was never illegal and the media companies can declare it “piracy” or “treason against Columbia Pictures” or whatever they want until they’re blue in the face but no one cares.

The VCR was invented, marketed, and sold to do this very thing. When the VCR first came out (same for betamax) they didn’t sell pre-recorded tapes because the only way they had to make those was to manually record them individually in real-time which was prohibitively expensive. That’s also why movie rental places caught on: early VHS movies were too expensive for most to afford. But not too expensive for a business to rent hundreds of times.

Suffice to say: if recording TV was piracy, it wasn’t illegal and the people bitching had no way to enforce their will.
