Culture, which can change.

I agree. It’s great to have machines do the work we don’t want to do so we can do other things with our lives.

We just need to get over this mentality that those who have more deserve more and those who have less deserve less.

So… do nothing about it?

Not really.

Personally, I’ve found AI is wrong about 80% of the time for questions I ask it.

It’s essentially just a search engine with cleverbot. If the problem you’re dealing with is esoteric and therefore not easily searchable, AI won’t fare any better.

I think AI would be a lot more useful if it gave a percentage indicating how confident it is in its answers, too. It’s very useless to have it constantly give wrong information as though it is correct.

“Designers” desperate to stay relevant and make their worthless degrees seem worthwhile.

I actually just use my phone for internet and haven’t had a landline ISP for 2 years now.

Visible, $25/month has saved me so much money and they even sent me a free phone.

Everyone is different.

I personally think copyright and patent laws need to die. If you can’t protect your own secrets, don’t rely on taxpayer resources to do it for you.

White-collar workers were cool with machines and poorer nations taking blue-collar jobs. Now that it threatens them and their money, the hypocrisy is on full display.

Only because it would hurt their bottom line.

Funny how we can only win when it’s corporations fighting each other.

if it ever becomes more popular the same assholes that ruin other online experiences will also wind up here.

That’s kind of the glory of the fediverse, though. We can have communities using the same protocol that never interact with each other.

There can be completely separate fediverses that cater to different people.

I’ve thought about this. Essentially, whenever a channel gets moderately successful they will be contacted by various agencies trying to ‘sponsor’ them.

All the people that make video for fun hardly get seen, and if they do it’s not long before they sell out.

I totally agree. Corporate interests and rampant consumerism have ruined the majority of the internet.

Glad we still have refuges like lemmy though to take solace in. Proportionally we’re a smaller part, but absolutely I’d say we’re about the same or larger than in the 2000s.

It’s my understanding that backwards-compatible PS3s actually had PS2 hardware in them.

We can play PS2 and PS1 games if they are downloaded from the store, so emulation isn’t an issue. I think Sony looked at the data and saw they would make more money removing backwards compatibility, so that’s what they did.

Thankfully the PS3 was my last console before standards got even lower and they started charging an additional fee to use my internet.

Owner of original 60gb PS3 here.

It got very hot and eventually stopped working. It was under warranty and I got an 80gb replacement for $200 cheaper, but lost out on backwards compatibility which really sucked because I sold my PS2 to get a PS3.

Why would they lay off their QA teams when its management and executives who make the decisions to cut corners?

You may have the last reply.

It’s sad watching how easily money can influence control public opinion.
