It sounds like they're just feeding frames into an AI that will shit out some terrible cartoon equivalent. Because hiring animators is too expensive.

The guy is a professional air pilot and has a YouTube channel that discussed issues like the RAT (air turbine) deploying *way* before it percolated into the general media and has made several other videos also talking about the delay releasing the flight data recorder / cockpit voice recorder. Frankly if both were released then there would be less need to speculate about whether engines / hydraulics failed but perhaps they were damaged and data recovery is necessary.

The bottom, as in the wholesale theft of intellectual property, copyright abuse, massive energy consumption, layoffs, the replacement of expertise with "vibe", hallucinations, and AI slop as far as the eye can see.

... what if I want to catch a preventable disease, feel like absolute shit for a week, probably infect others, and enjoy a not insubstantial chance of complications or death? All so I can save $20 which I can spend on bronze tier membership in the RFK jr death cult. Take that big pharma and your medicine.

Yhere are few movies that are So Good that it's worth paying a small fortune to see them in a theatre when they'll be streaming in 3 months.

We're going to fuck you over with inflated ticket prices, concessions, ads, bag searches (in case you smuggle food), premiums on good seats, and any other way we can think of nickel and diming you. But you're going to like it right? Wait where are you going?

The kind who gets to play golf, wined & dined with the salesman, not the poor bastards who are stuck with the consequences.

It's kind of worse. It's like paying someone else who will facilitate *you* maintaining rented virtual computers running *your* software.

I'm convinced from having done a lot of cloud development that the best solution in a lot of cases would be to buy a rack computer and run the software on the rack. The cloud could still be a front end for it, security, load balancing or whatever, but just deploy stuff to your own machines and if you need to scale, then buy more machines. It will cost less and won't be harder to administer than if it were all in the cloud. Moreover, it's easier to switch away from the cloud entirely or another provider when the core of the software has no dependency on it.

I'm sure it's not just laptops but a general malaise across most print media. I can't remember the last time I bought a magazine. I know I purchased stacks of them in the 90s, not just computer ones but other subjects. In the early 2000s I still bought a few but mostly for cover disks. I think the only other magazines I bought were some magazines when I commuted by train for a bit. Not just magazines but news papers. I used to buy the Sunday Times in the UK because it was literally an inch thick with so many sections & magazines that you could read it for the rest of the week.

Then the internet took over I could read stuff for free whenever I wanted and it was always relevant up to date as opposed to buying magazines which were at least a month behind what was happening. I still read the occasional digital magazine because I have an library app which lets me read them for free, but honestly it's more effort than its worth.

The funny thing is this site receives a lot of traffic but minimal effort has gone into keeping it up to date. I only recall one UI revamp when it sort of went web 2.0, but not by a lot which is what we have now. It must be profitable, or aught to be profitable.

Much like allowing a mental patient to shave your balls with a razor.

Well there is Redox which is a Rust based OS. But even in Linux there are efforts to use Rust for certain things in the kernel and also outside. I doubt anyone wants to rewrite for the sake of rewriting but if there is code which is especially vulnerable or important for security then it's a candidate to consider using Rust instead of C.
