Better than the results on google these days, so YT is at least doing better.

On the other hand to find something in youtube I'll write the phase "$my_query youtube" and works ways better than youtube's own search.

I use the Kagi AI answer especially when I have a basic understanding (or I once did and forgot some bridge concept) and am looking to get an ELI5ish clarification.

Or if its pop culture of little consequence.

Cellulose is microplastic? I wonder what paper straws shed?

Cellulose is supposed to be dietary fiber. For which there is a recommended daily intake amount.

Our Intellectual Property utopia is such that you need to steal back what you owned, because its been impounded by an 800 pound automaton.

Maybe someone will create a gaming model that 'borrows' from every known game in existence, so that we'll finally get an Artificial Gaming-you Intelligence.

With streaming services you can never own the content. My partners mother wanted to see something, tried to get it out of the library, but only available streaming. It's weird what it means when content is not longer available in physical form, for cultures and review clips. If every copy is drm ed..

with the current console games. Even with disk, it's a huge download on first play. I wonder how playable these games are in there initial state without download...

I had a bunch of 32bit Mac games that will never run again, when they transitioned to 64bjt only software. I don't often replay and like many have a backlog o steam games I'll likely never get too. With steam and proton I have high confidence things will continue to run in the future..

Your confidence is misplaced. Digital assets rot away soon after their maintenance ceases. Gabe Newell is 61 years old. Who knows what will happen after the BDFL gets tired of all this?

I know proton isn’t exactly emulation, but the “windows” target platform might be supported for a while..especially since it’s running on Linux pretty well. (Any game on steam deck is a running on linux)

Kind of like emulation keeps working.. or I can play my old doom wad files in a new doom executable.

But you are right that I’m kinda betting that things will continue as is with steam.

Only available on streaming or illegally

More responsibility for the same pay, corralling people, and inevitably adding their workload to yours? Because SME/mentor < sr dev when it comes time to rightsize the CxOs gambling losses.

Not surprising sr devs weren't jumping on this whole hog.

That's perhaps what you would do to your team but that's not what I suggested in my comment.

> Not surprising sr devs weren't jumping on this whole hog.

Senior devs interested in growing beyond pure dev do jump on this opportunity and job satisfaction an retention increases.

Sounds healthy to live in a padded room, rather than learning to ignore when you don't want to engage.

It's a tricky balance. Once the signal to noise gets bad enough, even if the cost of ignoring individual events is low enough, the cumulative cost of ignoring so much overwhelms any positive value. Twitter now seems bad enough that it's like living in an interesting area with horrible noise pollution and high crime rates. Over time it just sucks the life out of you. It might make sense to try and change things if it were a public good, but it's not, and Elon seems to want it this way, so it won't improve, so for many people it makes more sense to leave.

Depressing that in this 'enlightened' age, this statement is the closest to closure we will ever have for all the in-plain-sight rule breaking by the powers that be.

Technology, the great equalizer, except when it's not. Mostly not.

Firefox + Feedbro extension + RSShub container (self hosted) does the trick for those that have and had RSS.

This is also a warning to Musk, considering he is trying to turn X into the 'everything' app, and thus far has resisted giving backdoor access to the powers that be.

He literally set a new record for how many different countries he gave access to when asked to do so. You’re living in a fantasy land

Apparently the governments are all ignoring the much more sizable amount of child porn on instagram, because they have a backdoor with Meta.

This goes straight to the point about this being more about politics.

What are you talking about? No it doesn’t.

The difference here is that when other platforms are informed about child porn they do something about removing it.

Nothing to do with politics at all, just a weird fantasy you’re choosing to believe for who knows what reason.
