What about the pasta straws? I’ve seen it mentioned once, but nothing since.

Just use Free and Open Source Software!
It can always fuck up with updates, but usually you just get more free stuff and it’s awesome.
And Waze :(
It’s just a proxy hate.
Just like crypto before that.
Or any other crazy bullshit the elite drops bags of money on instead of anything reasonable.
LLMs just repeat training sets - so every mistake is repeated forever.
Every bias is locked in and can’t be fixed.
So you just deny people and expect them to appeal everything… sounds like you are offloading costs on the victims.
Shit like that is what makes it demonic.
It will be used to take control over peoples lives.
In any simple way it may be - denying job/insurance/care/etc, it will be hailed as using ‘reason’, while it just repeats patterns from the training sets.
It does not ‘reason’, because it can’t. Trying to sell it as such is very dangerous as it will be used against people, and it’s dishonest for the investors as well, as they will jump on it even though it’s not ‘true’ and it never will be for this model.
Not being able to do some things is the biggest blocker.
Sideloading for instance. Photos disappearing inside the Photos app and not being in files is also weird. It just felt like I was a moron who couldn’t handle my own files.
I dunno, I had iPhone in my hand for app development, and I wanted to shoot it out of the cannon into the sun.
You have to understand the thinking process behind the UI, and it’s not ‘intuitive’ to everyone.
And I just couldn’t use it, it drove me crazy.
I bought HoN like two weeks before it went free, and I haven’t played much.
How was it more complicated?
Unfathomable hands down.
It requires 3-6 people for well over two hours (longest was around 5h).
Constant attacks from the sea creatures trying to destroy your ship. With traitors.
But it’s so engaging and fun. There is enough depth for replayability, lots of variation, there is always something happening, and players interact a lot, so there aren’t boring parts just watching someone go off with their turn.
There was recently an expansion, adding lots of variety and more depth.
Almost everyone who played once wanted to try it again. If you can find people who have the time, they will not walk away until it’s over. And will think about how to play differently the next time.
League of Legends is a pet peeve of mine, since one bad person took down DotA forum, stole ideas from it, created LoL, and acted like a big shot. He wasn’t alone, but you know what I mean.
To this day I think that Blizzard hates esports, because they left DotA with 0 support, and only after many years of Dota 2 they created Heroes of the Storm, which was even more watered down than LoL.
And LoL is such a simple game, which is OK, but once you actually understand Dota, it doesn’t come anywhere close. It brought nothing innovative. Which is sad.
Source: I played hundreds of hours, and put hundreds of dollars into LoL back in the ~2010.
Yeah ok sure buddy, but what do you DO actually?
Or a mortar. Point blank.
I am always suprised that people expected anything differently.
Epic was from the start doing things the wrong way, and I will not support any store that has exclusives.
Making a good gaming platform that could rival Steam would take A LOT of time and money and dare I say - no company is willing to lose that for a chance of one day perhaps being only slightly worse competitor that still can’t convince people to migrate.
I mean when I made one such blog, the default install did not have a single index in the database? Like even a small dataset took seconds to process.
People love to shit on PHP, and I also love to shit on WordPress, but performance was definitely possible to easily improve.
I had 0 luck running it on Linux so far :(
I sync it via Nextcloud, works somewhat with my phone, too (I have to manually download it, and I set it to upload automatically).
Between PCs it works like magic.
Just stop him, remove all his government contracts, and never allow him anywhere near anything of value. And when he does something stupid, report it honestly. With all his current fuckups.
Imagine 7.700.000.000 people not living in the US
