- Comment on Reddit plans to lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says | Reddit executives also discussed how they might introduce more ads into the social media platform 1 month ago:
I haven’t had an account since the Apollo purge but fuck Spez.
- Comment on Kagi Introducing Fair Pricing 2 months ago:
They tried various pricing plans although I forget if they experimented with both usage based and capped plans. Anything other than unlimited did not go over well with users. I had no desire to manage a monthly cap since my own daily usage varied so much. People had also become very conditioned to having unlimited search.
- Comment on There’s No Dancing Around It: Apple’s Vision Pro Was An Ugly Dud 3 months ago:
It’s a tech demo at this point, not a product. Tim Cook wanted something to cement his legacy so they released it even though the technology was not at all ready yet. The potential is impressive but we’re years away.
Say what you want about Steve Jobs. But his timing during his second stint at Apple was unrivaled. He knew what to bet on and when. And he wasn’t afraid to go all in and bet the company on it.
- Comment on Bluesky's success is a rejection of big tech's operating system 4 months ago:
Just block the user. I like Bluesky but I’m tired of them too.
- Comment on Gemini AI tells the user to die — the answer appeared out of nowhere when the user asked Google's Gemini for help with his homework 4 months ago:
The relentless pursuit of capitalism and reduced labor costs. I still don’t think anyone knows how effective it’s going to be at this point. But companies are investing billions to find out.
- Comment on T-Mobile, AT&T oppose unlocking rule, claim locked phones are good for users 5 months ago:
It was probably incompetence more than malice but T-Mobile customer service incorrectly told me multiple times that I was not allowed to pay off my phone balance early to unlock it. I’m on US Mobile now and I’ll never go back to post paid.
