That’s a reductive take. Batman has always been on the side of the poor and common man, despite his wealth. One could point out the obvious “rich savoir” angle, but I think that far less problematic.

They are already asking questions. DeepSeek was a wake up call. NVIDIA stock dropped like a stone right after the announcement.

Open source is the only way forward with AI.

This is a problem with Lemmy’s defaults. Every single post has to be set as English, instead of allowing the user set a default language.

It’s not the fault of the user. It’s a bug. I just checked and no, I cannot set a default language for my posts. If they want to fix the viewing problem long-term, they need to fix this default posting language problem first.

So, Steam won?

Every single office chair I buy for myself and my family is followed by an immediate purchase of rollerblade wheels for that chair. Standard office wheels suck, and replacing them is really easy. They glide so well.

It’s like that Woodstock concert in the 2000s. You can’t just recapture magic like that by repetition.

Spontaneity is spontaneous.

At what point do we declare that it already fell off the tightrope?

It’s a protocol, made with open RFC docs.

Seriously. I want to play Alan Wake 2, but not if it’s on Epic’s store.

Country size has a huge impact on the ability to make sweeping changes to infrastructure and public opinion. A country the size of one US state can do whatever they want and it’s not going to take 50 years to implement.

South Korea has broadband everywhere? Sure, they are a rich country the size of Indiana and lacing all of that fiber is trivial compared to the entire land mass of the US, or worse, Russia or China. Governmental demands scale much differently the larger the country, and tax doesn’t scale in a 1:1 manner to its land mass.

Their policies on automated updates, garbage QA, and recall history are huge turnoffs. Oh, and attachments to Elon Musk.

Both of these takes are extremely cynical, and should be taken with a grain of salt. Israel’s actions with Gaza and the extremely right-wing PM in charge should not define Israel as a country and the reasons why the US has them as an ally, just like how Trump does not define the US as a country.

To be clear, I’m not suggesting that they shouldn’t be criticized. But, let’s criticize the actions, instead of making up reasons that the US is involved with Israel in the first place.

“New”

Mexican cartels are the government, so this isn’t surprising.

LAION is a database of URLs, gathered from publicly-available data on the Web. Who is “taking” anything?

This new “journalism” site is not doing itself any favors with bullshit headlines like this. And this is not the first wildly inaccurate article I’ve seen from 404 Media.

Spain is also the size of a single state.

No, that’s literally how the laws in most countries work. It turns out men and women have different biology.

I guess you haven’t heard of the Murdock news problem over there.
