There’s another thing I don’t see people talking about. In the YouTube app itself, they have hovering “Products” link, that covers a portion of a video (might just be shorts) and there doesn’t appear to be any way to remove it. I currently have YouTube Premium and it shows up.

Ye

Today I learned he actually legally changed his name to “Ye”. Fucking pretentious and stupid.

And the product just what, magically shows up? If you’re swapping out the flavor, that’s a whole process, not something you’re doing on a whim. All promotional material would either be shipped ahead of time or with the product. We’ve been able to label buttons and products for a long time w/o using an independent computer + screen to do it.

If you’re swapping flavors (which won’t happen often) your already having to clean it. Swapping out the button insert isn’t a big ask. This doesn’t solve anything a physical sign could do better.

If you’re changing out the product with something different, then swapping out an insert really isn’t a big task.

It’s just a name. Think folk lore, most can’t use them and those that could probably looked like they had infinite power.

You’re still paying for the components, so an out-of-box dumb TV would be cheaper (we saw this when smart TV’s first launched, they were ~$30-40 more then the dumb versions). You still are at the mercy of whatever board/OS gets installed. And Microsoft is constantly trying to force users to make an online account to use the PC, it’s only a matter of time before TV makers require WIFI to do initial setup. Plus there’s ways to still get online, like if they partner with Xfinity who use customer routers (the ones that get rented) for others to use… stuff like that would eb all to easy to do. Or heck, partner with Amazon. They deliver everywhere, so the trucks are driving around, there’s ways they could auto join you to a network.

The “just don’t” doesn’t send a message other than “we need to try harder because we need to steal that data”. Stop buying TVs is the only message that might work.

Seven Pounds

Watching how a single person, a single life, could positively impact the lives of so many people got me to be a registered organ donor.

Oh! That’s Africa!

Well it was nice knowing the crew… If they’re running windows they’re doomed.

So many good ones already listed I’ll add a unique one.

Street Fighter: The Movie

It was a game, based on the movie, based on the original games.

This was the best April fools prank I’ve seen today

No, what they’re asking for is Copilot^Copilot

Not to be confused with Copilot, or Copilot+, or Copilot 365, or Copilot Pro, or Github Copilot, or Copilot Studio, or Security Copilot…

Nope/10

And once someone (probably a child) gets hit and dies, the city will say how sorry this tragedy is… will claim they’ll do something, and then do nothing. Because words are cheap. Oh, and they’ll act like this wasn’t avoidable, there was no way to know this kind of thing could happen.

I want to add, don’t diagnose yourself, period. Especially from crap you see on the internet. If you suspect something, see an actual doctor. Someones diagnosis/life is not a “fun costume” for you to just wear because you saw a meme or want to be quirky.

Sam Altman is OpenAi. OpenAi is. ChatGPT. ChatGPT is “ai”. “ai” has caused a massive shortage of consumer hardware and a massive increase in price. Consumer hardware is what would be used in the upcoming SteamCube.

So, that’s how.
