  • A thing never mentioned in these debates is that noone in the world is buying tiktok without buying the underlying algorithm, the same algorithm the app runs on worldwide, the algorithm is the special sauce. They are not going to sell the basis for their app just for a single payday in the US market, which after buying it, they could rebrand and then once successful in the US, compete in the global market against tiktok but with the income of the most lucrative app market in the world behind them. It’s an extremely stupid business move.

  • My argument is that self driving car fatalities have to be compared against human driven car fatalities. If the self driving cars kill 500 people a year, but humans kill 1000 people a year, which one is better. Logic clearly isn't your strong suit, maybe sit this one out...

  • This is the actual logical way to think about self driving cars. Stop down voting him because "Tesla bad" you fuckin goons.

  • They don't want to compete with tiktok, they want them gone so they win without trying to make their own service better, which they could do, but they don't want to change what likely ends up being a more lucrative algorithm for them if they aren't dealing with competition. You know, American free market economics 🙄

  • Because then Facebook will pay for your reelection campaign?

  • Honestly though, its not the developers fault. 100% they are being told what to prioritize working on, and I'm certain its exclusively business facing improvements. Microsoft only cares about making the package of features they provide look sexy to the people who would be pulling the trigger on bringing Teams to their office, not the people who actually have to use it.

    Sadly this is just the way capitalism works, short term thinking, sacrifice the product for the sales, and then 5 years down the road wonder where it all went wrong; or monopolize the market and pay congress to pull the ladder up behind you.

  • Watched the first episode and thought the pacing was slow. It was the first episode lol

  • Idk about you guys, but I will wait until they've patched out the game breaking bugs and system compatibility issues. And then I'll pay them 17$ for 1 month of their game service, beat the game, and cancel the sub.

  • Yeah I pay $20 a month with mint. They're a killer provider, u get a lot for almost nothing.

  • I was in Japan 1 week ago. I couldn't get roaming to work with my carrier mint (which may not have been there fault, it's a long story) but I needed data or I would have no way to navigate Tokyo. I paid $25 for 14 days of unlimited 4G data in all of Japan, I downloaded an esim, boom now I have data on my phone again. Easy.

    I did all of this on free airport WiFi.

    And once u have a sim on ur phone u can switch which sims you have active at a givin time, which had no value to me, but could be useful for other, especially someone who may travel frequently.

  • Lol I've got a question you didn't ask

    "Are you just a clown?"

    Yes...

  • "I am making assumptions"

    Full stop, you did it. You do not know a single thing about this person but believe ur assumptions to be truth based on personal experience, such that now you believe it's ok for you to make public accusations about their mental health, that is ignorant, you are a clown.

  • The post isn't a matter of opinion. He didn't ask whether his view is correct or true, he asked what its academic name was. He is seeking a specific answer. You're the one injecting opinion into a conversation that didn't ask for any.

    If I asked what the name of the god of the Hindu religion was, it wouldn't be an open invitation to begin debating the merits of said religion. And even if u decided that it was, it sure as hell isn't were you get asked a simple question like "are u advocating for ignorant bliss", and then say "well this whole post is a matter of opinion" which is both complete bullshit as I've now shown, and also a cowards move, because you are pivoting the conversation as a means to not answer a simple question since you can tell you've lost the argument.

    You might consider reflecting on your own viewpoints, because if they cant stand up to simple questions about their own merits, then maybe you should get a new viewpoint, or at a minimum you stop spreading them on the internet to people who didn't ask.

  • Your adding the baseless implication that there is something wrong in their life. I'm not a 10 year old being murdered by Israels missles, or a Ukrainian forced to go to war, or a toddler dying of leukemia, but those things exist in this world. Whether they affect me or not they exist, hence ur making the assumption this is a complaint on their own life.

  • Fuck yeah, turn left bash fash Les go

  • I kept wondering if it was because all nascar drivers do is turn left. But him being used as a meme is never explained directly or contextually.

  • The entire concept of a scientific study to determine whether people spend this money wisely is bunk

    For anything like this to actually happen people will have to vote for it.

    1st you are incorrect because this wont happen if the people arnt educated on what happens when this system is introduced.

    2nd Your correct because you can do all the studies in the world and gen pop would still be too easily manipulated to ever try something out of the box like this.

  • I've always wondered this, figure this is the thread to ask it.

    I've been using the same dumb TV since 2013 it's great, but eventually it's gonna die an I'm scared of what pieces of shit smart TV's are.

    Could I not just use a computer and run it through the smart TV and bypass all the smart bullshit by using it as a monitor?
