Comment Nothing to do with GenX (Score 2) 193

It's not a generational thing, at all, as another so-called "gen-x".

Ads suck, and using something like Brave all of a sudden makes browsing faster and more pleasant. I'm done being shilled to. Not their business model? Too bad, it's not my "business model" to waste my time giving attention to shouting ads for products I will never buy.

If there's a technical way to avoid ads, I'll do it. If there isn't - I will simplify my life and cut YouTube out of it.

Comment Re:"school-provided devices" (Score 1) 115

This is completely asinine. Schools provide two forms of education. The first is teaching kids science, math, art, PE and that type of stuff. The second is helping to teach them how to function in society.

Having public schools forces people have to associate with people they don't agree with. While in school this seems fucking bonkers to the children, but what they learn from this is invaluable in real life. Letting parents choose schools based on what they align to will only exacerbate the existing Trump vs world shit that is currently happening.

Comment Everyone's got their windmill (Score 1) 87

This is Tim's.

It's possible I'm wrong, that maybe he can make a market out of this. But Tim's not a product guy. The Apple lineup so far is solid but not exactly exciting. I'm not sure there's anyone with Apple who has vision other than creating the vertical integration stack and doing it slightly better than the next guy. MacOS Ventura 13 has some troubling signs that half-bakery is on the rise at Apple, particularly the ugly rework of System Preferences.

Comment YT wants more content farms (Score 1) 159

Junk content, engagement through enragement, and all the life supplement advertisements.

Monetization at YT is a joke, between copyright claims, advertiser white-washing, and now this. YT seems doing their best to remove unique and interesting content from their platform, ala History Channel and Discovery Channel.

Comment strictly being used as a funding device (Score 1) 68

It's clear to me that, by announcing that DoNotPay will be defending for the first time, this is wholly an attempt to attract investors, and will likely work regardless of outcome. Could've stealthed it and announced after a successful case, but now, all eyes will be upon this.

Comment First work with TSMC to build non-Taiwan fabs... (Score 2) 33

That to me is more of an issue ; it's clear China is going to move on Taiwan something in the next decade, and TSMC needs to make sure their top process fabs still operate when that happens. TSMC are no dummies, they're already going down that road, but we need their high-spec foundries off-island, not just the 14nm and 22nm processes.
