Even if prices fall, the economic damage will be severe and nobody will be in the mood for spending much on components. Folks have already probems and jobs are cut at the height of the bubble so that’s not going to end well.

No, these are things tested on gaming and phones. If it works and there isn’t much resistance it’ll come to regular computers too. First you had Steam for games, then came the iphone with an app store and then it became a thing in general computing. That’s how things go.


Age verification, id verification, mandatory DRM, only allow certified apps from official app stores, block systems not on the approved list from login onto sites, issues using school and government sites. Then payment processors get involved to refuse cash to those not following the program.
It’s a slow squeeze instead of outright ban that leaves Big Tech boxes and Dark Web boxes.


Lemmy: Arrrr!
Big Tech: take away their PC and give them some completely locked down box fully under our control, to protect the children of course. And no more physical media!
The only answer to that is probably board games and books.


And had no more ideas to steal and badly implement


Seems they’re betting on the government bailing them out, and buying their services for surveillance and military purposes.


Next he’ll implement the 18+ image generation that Grok was doing and you’re getting closer to metaverse blackjack and hookers.


Some people are very susceptible to variable reward schemes and it causes addictive behavior, especially people high in impulsivity, sensation-seeking, or reward sensitivity.


And because mechanical complexity is so great, all those ICS cars have a fully mechanical dashboard with a good ol’ spring driven clock, only physical switches and gyroscopic inertial system for navigation.


“If these companies want quality data, then they should offer quality contracts,” Alice continued. “Instead they’re low-balling struggling people, employing them for the barest possible amount of time and tossing them aside as projects are finished with no warning.”
Pay peanuts, get monkeys. Or minimum viable product for that price range, if you want to put it more fancy.


At that point you’re just doing the work of foreign adversaries, by killing citizens yourself.
That’s a common reason the big ones in history fall. In the end it’s by the rich, for the rich, and f the citizens. A population strongly divided doesn’t unite in time against an external enemy and the enemy wins. So far they’re just following history’s playbook.


You can’t properly extract value from and exploit customers when somebody else is giving customers exactly what they want. How rude!


We’ll let the runaway inflation after the AI crash eat away at the currency’s value until RAM is back at the old value, even with the much higher prices, then wait for wages to catch up a bit. By then they’ll have a nice unsold supply.


I think this may be a catalyst to software fundamentals.
It’s not that fundamental. It’s just corporations skipping the optimizing step and just shipping because that looks better for their project deadline and budget. As long as complaining is limited and sales don’t drop they don’t care.


Hence the rush for IPO the big ones are doing.


Biotech and generic engineering can still be pulled into mainstream.


The fuck is wrong with people?
That’s the corporate hive mind, all afraid of missing out of a great productivity tool. And they think that because media these days just copies what the richest people say and hype it up because the rich these days only speak to yes-men.
and then regret the cost
Reality doesn’t need to obey yes-men.


and cars are allowed to drive really fast
That was stated very plainly here. Cars are getting bigger and heavier. And pedestrians being killed equals weight of car multiplied with speed. Weight up, so speed down. Small roads everywhere now 30kph/20mph.


Might be. The sim city line and EA are dead to me too, so I don’t remember the version numbers exactly.
And that was supposed to be the backbone of the space based data center
