  You’re not implying they are racist or partisan, are you? /s

  If you ask the supreme court, probably not.

  To combat this I think drivers, firmware, etc. should be acknowledged as being in the same category as spare parts, manuals, repair tools, etc. They are equally as vital to being able to repair your device, and therefore should be open sourced at the latest when a manufacturer pulls support. Of course I would prefer them to be open sourced immediately, but with how software IP works currently that seems like a pipe dream, especially for devices with very complex drivers, like GPU’s.

  But they do it stochastically, so you only have a suspicion watching gives you fewer ads, but aren’t 100% sure

  IMO this should be the case for everything developed using public money, looking at you, pharmaceutical companies…

  Even if it’s just playing back videos, it still should compensate for the distortion of the spherical display. That’s a “simple” 3d transformation, but with the amount of pixels, coordinating between the GPUs and some redundancy, it doesn’t seem like an excessive amount of computing power. The whole thing is still an impressive excess though…

  Who do you think the profit of increasing the price tag goes to? The workers in the factory to help them deal with inflation, or the rich shareholders?

  It is bias laundering though. They hide behind an “objective” algorithm, which was trained on a huge dataset of past biased hiring decisions.
