I’d absolutely move to a steam machine in my pocket.

They are, for some reason people just like to call them something else.

There are less puritans than gooners, if a corpo is backing the puritans is because that corpo is ran by one of those demons.

Considering valve is, basically, the gateway to a billion dollar industry, they certainly have the weight to throw around and get this done, or at least to prop up a less demonic processor. It’ll take time whatever they do, but i really hope they are doing something.

they could and should fight this, Amazon did and they came out on top, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t the payment processors fault.

I’m glad to find good reasons for misanthropy even in the small things.

I swear Nintendo is the reason for the stereotypes about Japanese businessmen. Delusionally prideful, psychotically controlling, aggressively narcissistic, and entirely ass backwards.

gaben has out right explained why trying to stop it is stupid, and he was objectively correct too.

They could just… Not have tracking chips in our property? Piracy isn’t a big deal, even with stupid shit like this driving more people towards it.

It could probably be worth it to keep an active eye on your data even if it remains roughly the same. To keep an established base line, to keep an eye out for changes in environment in specific areas, to monitor the effects of aging, to sell you shit when your eye gets damaged. Probably other evil shit too, or just the paranoid urge to surveil people for no damn reason.

Selling data on people is a lucrative business. Although it is a business and not UBI.

No, it’s worse than that. It’s impossible to meet the standards set in this and other bills of it’s type without having a shortlist of curated, controlled people creating online content. That’s literally the point, keeping people from interesting with information they deem unsavory.

That said, it is impossible to enforce unless they want to set up the great firewall of america.

Not really. Unlimited means no data cap, not infinite bandwidth, and that’s perfectly reasonable to provide. Data isn’t a limited resource, the only thing that’s committed is the amount you can get right at that second.

The Internet isn’t universally bad

Or just… Don’t use an ai?

It’s the same argument. Even if this is a wild new kinda distasteful it’s not going to have any real affects in the real world.

Removed? What could the comment possibly say in this context that would warrant removal?

God, .ml manages to be the worst parts of both shitlib civility bullshit and tankie bullshit.

Musk wants to be acknowledged as superior by everyone, Trump only cares about a few fashie friends/idols/key holders of his.

The corpo media doesn’t want you writing about real solutions, it’s easier to get away with here! And i doubt the alphabet agencies will care as much as they used to now that they’re being directly attacked.

Yeah, i haven’t had anything go wrong in at least a decade.
