Googles half the malware themselves.
Cant install (random app name here, since we cant use X anymore as a generic thanks to musk and his 13 year old obsession with naming everything X) app, without having 1500 different google bullshit data trackers installed.
You are either going to donate, or spread word to others, who will pick it up and donate themselves.
Money still gets made, its just less opportunistic and predatory, and more a reward from those who can afford, to fund for those who cant.
I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again.
Nvidia is destroying gaming.
They started the destruction with the idea of 4k gaming.
When they realized native 4k gaming wasnt going to be feasible… They knocked gaming to the ground and started kicking it in the ribs with this upscaling bullshit, because who doesnt love a 1080p picture shittily stretched to 4k?
And they curb stomped it by making video cards cost more than what most people make in a fucking month.
and they’re beating its unconscious body with bats over this DLSS5 AI obsession bullshit.
and at every step of the way, the gamers were there to deliver dumptrucks of money because they don’t give a fuck about ruining everything as long as they can have their new shiny. Being in the cool kids club by having a new shiny is more important than the havok they are wrecking with their decisions to support this shit.
But don’t worry…They’ll still go online and cry about the unfairness of it all.
and AMD is desperately trying to play catchup so they can try to steal a sliver of the bullshit pie as well, before someone tries to point out me not addressing AMD (since its not the topic), or try to hail it as the saviour of gaming kind.
This makes me think that the people who install brave, are the people who, 15-20 years ago, would have a IE install that was half toolbars.
God…remember all the scammy toolbars for IE? and how they could take up half the damn screen on some peoples machines?
Whats going on with RetroArch? I havent really paid attention/kept up since I set up my last Raspberry Pi.
I thought people gave up on Tor years ago when it was revealed that it wasnt as anonymous as people expected due to the number of entry and exit nodes controlled by governments and spy agencies.
The North Dakota and Tennesee officers involved in this need to be arrested, and convicted, for kidnapping, abuse of authority, elder abuse, and whatever fucking other charge they can be trumped up on.
I just wish the end would come already.
Tired of watching the goddamn preamble.
if you’re paying more than what most people make a month for a fuckin phone, then you should be able to do what the fuck ever you damn well fuckin please with the phone.
No I dont own these afflicted phones, I’m not that rich, I’m just talking on principle
And the kids were hyped over it, like i said.
never know, you’d be surprised the assumptions youtube makes about you based on what you watch.
I watch a couple fishing channels, and it seems that anything outdoorsy youtube automatically registers as conservative republican, and increases the right wing/prageru propaganda significantly during the times I dont have adblock (When I used to use xbox to watch youtube on the big TV, I replaced it with an old laptop entirely to get adblocking running)
and a mutli-hour ad. Who the fuck would watch that, who the fuck would pay to put a multi-hour ad on an 8m video that nobody is going to watch?
People who are hoping to get a captured audience that cant get up and click the skip button for whatever reason.
i have a shitty little AOC 20 inch monitor that doesnt even have any physical controls on it,connected via a Displayport to VGA adapter, and a big 27 inch dell monitor connected via HDMI.
the shit little monitor always wakes up like 2 seconds after the PC does, the dell takes for fuckin ever. often just waking up in time to see the OS login screen.
but like, man, like… its totally new, like, and like, totally amazing man. you just, like, cant comprehend, man!
the 1% is the people who say “well, sure, 99% is a scam, but theres a legit 1% thats totally real!”
Do you think I’m some STD-ridden guy?
Who do you think would say such a thing?
imma say Number 2 for 1000.
also side note.
Yeah, he put it on… but did he leave it on? was it one he tampered with? His reaction makes him 100% not trustworthy.
“the ads help us make more money above and beyond all the apps who’ve paid us to pre-load their shit on our product”
i dont have an LG, but I’ve only had to firmware update 1 TV in like… the past 13 years, and that was because it had a horrible issue with the image vertically splitting in half and green corruption across the bottom. Which makes you think hardware failure, but it wasnt, the firmware update 100% fixed it for the rest of its life.
So unless you are facing a major, catastrophic issue like that, I’d say fuck updates.
For now. That can change at any time with an update.
your mother.
