I don’t get why twitter wouldn’t just comply & implement measures the moment it knew it’s platform was being used to distribute CSAM.

That’s my secret, I always sign off my emails as “Regards”.

As a Non-American, the fact its a close race a fucking bonkers. You guys need to get your shit together.

Genuine unpopular opinion and the people downvote it… In a community named “Unpopular Opinion”.

Surprised she didn’t freak out with the line below. It’s already gone on a killing spree…

That suggests his recent actions haven’t been delusional?

Like most of my work’s processes… Shit goes in, shit comes out…

Using a password manager would avoid this. Everyone should ideally use unique passwords per service, that way a single account can’t compromise the others.

The loss of personal data however is fricking annoying. If a company has no legitimate reason, I avoid signing up to them.

Looking at you Nvidia, Razar, etc…

There’s only so many 3-word slogans for “I’m a douchbag”

Whilst I agree in the spirit of the petition, the wording isn’t great.

Server infrastructure has significant opex costs to run & maintain - it’s impractical to demand publishers to keep them alive, especially if the running cost far exceeds the player demand & potential revenues. What happens if that publisher goes bust? What happens if a significant security vulnerability is found?

Might be better to have legislation for software publishers (not just games) to both plan & implement a sunsetting strategies when they intend to retire software.

Eg. If the online component was just performing license checks, make software publishers remove the DRM. If it’s to host a DLC store, release all DLC items for free & remove the store. If its for multi-player mechanics, release both the client & server software as limited open-source license so the community can maintain those assets going forward.

Why are the walls so bare?

The box was clearly designed for a larger egg. The fact they made the image the same size doesn’t neglect the fact that shrinkflation has occurred.

The only reason the box size hasn’t changed is to fool buyers on the potential size of the egg. If it was box was correctly sized, most people would have selected a different egg.

And a rate limit

That parody was awesome! If they turned it into a full movie I’d be the first to buy tickets to see it.

Wouldn’t the YouTube algorithm add an unintentionally bias into the training data?

A lot of YouTubers talk about how they’re having to adjust their content and style to maintain viewership numbers. Hence all the click bait thumbnails & captions.

Execs don’t give a shit. They simply double down on the false cause fallacy instead. They wouldn’t ever admit they fucked up.

Last year the company I work for went through a run of redundancies, claiming AI and system improvements were the cause. Before this point we were growing (slowly) year on year. Just not growing fast enough for the shareholders.

They cut too deep, shit is falling apart, and we’re loosing bids to competitors. Now they’ve doubled down on AI, claiming blindness to the systems issues they created, and just made an employee’s “Can Do” attitude a performance goal.
