Yeah 4K means jack if it’s compressed to hell, if you end up with pixels being repeated 4x to save on storage and bandwidth, you’ve effectively just recreated 1080p without upscaling.
Just like internet. I’d rather have guaranteed latency than 5Gbps.
- Comment on Anger in Japan after Instagrammer drinks burial site offering 14 hours ago:
I just don’t fucking understand people’s lack of boundaries. I don’t care where or when. Did you bring the item in the fridge? No? Then leave it the fuck alone. Is that offering for you? No? Then leave it the fuck alone.
Why do people think things are just free for the taking?

I loved playing the first game when I was younger. It was like a more exploration based Sonic game. You had some fast parts and then others where you tried to find hidden areas.

my partner does not allow gaming at all
What? I’m curious to hear why. Gaming has shown to increase hand eye coordination, better thinking and logical skills, and if you go for non-electronic gaming it can help a person develop social skills by interacting with others.
A blanket ban on gaming just seems short sighted, rather than teaching them rights and wrongs around playing and overplay

Meant to reply to him, not you. You basically said something similar to me.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Yeah but the US isn’t all that matters. For reference VW group is the largest automaker in the world, so the comment “no one is buying their cars” is very short sighted.

I mean that’s basically what a person who is a vegetable is (sorry, don’t know the correct terminology, someone probably will be offended by that phrase)
- Comment on Help. 2 weeks ago:
can’t cheat, can’t abuse you
That is a dangerous assumption. The ones controlling the models can definitely manipulate a person through some minor tweaks which would definitely count as abuse. And it’s it more polygamous since they’re probably all using the same model? Not like each one has their own unique model

People actually thought he’d stop after taking over Palestine? Look at what he’s already doing in Syria, they’re next.

- Comment on Is Meta Scraping the Fediverse for AI? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I understand the resource utilization concern but a lot of people are pissed about ingesting their comments. There were people who actually thought putting CC terms on their posts would actually do anything.
- Comment on Any Xbox 360 can now be hacked in less than one minute 3 weeks ago:
Got everything ready to try. Just need to pull out my 360. Would I use it long term? Probably not, but this is too cool of a test to pass up.
- Comment on Is Meta Scraping the Fediverse for AI? 3 weeks ago:
Every time this pops up I have the same thing to say… there is nothing that is stopping them from setting up their own federated instance and via the ActivityPub protocol have everything delivered to them in a neatly formatted package ready to ingest, no scraping needed and nothing we could do except try to defederate with them, but we’d have to know which servers are theirs.

- Comment on Florida sues some of the biggest porn platforms, accusing them of not complying with the state's age verification law 4 weeks ago:
I’d argue it’s on the state to figure that out (for better or worse). My site is on a globally connected network, if you don’t want your citizens doing something, you figure it out. It’s not my job.
- Comment on Atlassian terminates 150 staff with pre-recorded video, AI customer contact solutions rolled out 4 weeks ago:
It’s the same thing with Stack Overflow. Usage in dropping because devs are relying on AI…. that got its information from SO. What’s gonna happen when you start running into new problems?
- Comment on Zuckerberg says people without AI glasses will be at a disadvantage in the future 4 weeks ago:
I did mention one possible use and people freaked out. Imagine an AR overlay where you’re at a gala or business function and you can pull up people’s names or LI profile to better know them when chatting. Or say at a sportsball game where it could give you stats of the people on the field as they’re playing (sports nerds love that sort of shit). There are many uses for AR but I don’t think this meta approach is even close to correct.
