He's tired from fighting for your right to actually own what you buy (as in being able to repair and modify). Which is important in this era of manufactured waste.

It's a great program if you like watching people laugh at old people for being old. Basically what I'm saying is this program was elderly abuse.

A proper debate for Trump and Biden is like setting up a mixer for you and two exes that you despise. What are you going to learn that you don't already know?

His channel is mainly reviews. He isn't running a "makers" channel or even one like GamersNexus (explaining things in depth) or LTT (covers broad range of topics and demonstrations).

His review on those AI gadgets were pretty scathing. Though, the claim here is that he is biased for Apple, not for whoever sends him devices.

Probably has to suck-up inorder to get products early so his reviews can be viewed first. I wish all of these reviewers would be honest as Steve Burke (GamersNexus).

He does great videos

Mbkhd's studio, talking/narrating skills, editing skills, and skills in explaining tech in simple terms are extremely high quality. He just needs to be more honest about famous companies.

He is every harsh on manufacturers and OEMs when they do bad things. He gave up on being nice and I fully understand why. We need more regulations in the tech industry, especially around warranty claims.

Reminds me of Pokemon. I skipped out on Scarlet and Violet (9th gen) because I knew it was going to carry the issues 8th gen had. Both generations still sold extremely well. 9th gen didn't review as well 8th gen but the reviews were still carried by nostalgia and not critical enough.

As @reddit_sux@lemmy.world stated there are more perks than just earlier reviews.

Sometimes a large company will stop assisting you if you go against their talking points. For example Hardware Unboxed got in trouble for saying, raytracing isn't as big of a deal as Nvidia is making it and it will remain that way for at least the next few years. Thanks to influence of several big Youtubers (like Steve Burke and Linus Sebastien), Nvidia changed their minds.

planned tax cuts for businesses

Well, at least Trump spoke about the key issues the black community face and showcased how his platform will enable them to have a better future.

I legit upvoted every Thanks Steve comment right before I posted this thread! 🤣 I love that meme.

I was being sarcastic. Also, he didn't even lie, he just talked about an unexpected topic as he isn't "the biggest fan of black people."

NOT the key issue for the black community

Thank you, this is a much better and clearer way to state what I meant.

The incumbent, Haywood “Woody” Stokes III, hadn’t even bothered to fill out the paperwork to run again. Haywood Stokes Jr., his father, had previously been mayor of the rural Black Belt town.

The end of a dynasty. Good riddance.

This could be illegal for git repos that do not have a open source license that allows mirroring or copying (BSD, Apache, Mit, GPL, etc.) Sometimes these repos are more "source available" and the source is only allowed to be read, not redistributed or modified. I would say that this is more of a matter for each individual copyright holder, not Microsoft.

But ultimately I agree, this really isn't as big of a deal as people are making.

edit: changed some wording to be clearer

China is a soverign state and they should make their own laws. However, China has promised repeatably that they will take IP concerns more strictly (trade deal with Trump in 2020 is one example of this promise). It seems of this moment they still use the World Intellectual Property Organization for inspiration for their IP laws. At one point, China did not acknowledge IP rights at all but chose to acknowledge them in order to secure foreign business trade. Being consistent is good for business; especially when it comes to international business.

In 1980, China became a member of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). As of at least 2023, China's view is that WIPO should be the primary international forum for IP rule-making. - Wikipedia

Software and AI development would be hard with 8gb of RAM on Linux. Having you seen the memes on AI adding to global climate change? Not even Linux can fix the issues with ChatGPT...

Sorry, the rest of us need to stick our heads in the sand if Trump and Russia are not involved. You know how unions work... well I don't, I'm from the US.

Being linked is how the malware works

It doesn't help me, the only tip they need is to do their jobs better.

Looks like you're right. Taking another look at your conversation, it seems you were arguing with a Hasbera (is that how its spelled).

Are we in a "free market" or we not? The answer is "depends on what lobbyists want."

This is a huge problem for Samsung. This is proof they cannot maintain an OS, making them further dependent on Google. They chose a Linux compatible toolkit (EFL from Enlightenment) and tried making their own OS. It was terrible and filled with security holes.

I think they should rebase Tizen on PostMarketOS, as I don't believe Samsung can create their own base.

Governments agencies usually obtain software through contracts with vendors. Microsoft is one of those vendors so I'm not surprised to hear about this.

Also, Firefox is the pretty much the browser of freedom and independence so I'm surprised it's not illegal or "against family values" at this point. 😔

Small correction: Even though some NFTs sold for millions, the NFTs have always been worthless.

The wording here is really important. We don't know how masculinity and feminism are being defined here.

Stuff that began with "woman's suffrage" are honored by people in this age group. They think it's normal women vote, have jobs, leave the house etc. Some of this stuff probably isn't even "feminism" to them but just "normal."

Remember that these guys are on social media a lot more than us and see those words misued frequently for click bait, etc.

They really need a way to gain money independently from Google. Reselling an interesting looking service is better than only Google.

The man who should have elected in 2016 AT THE LATEST.

I'm going to go cry in a corner as Biden gets another country wrapped up in endless war so he can save democracy using... Zionism, guns, and drones.

Israel is an example of what a country shouldn't be like.

This has to be one of the most politically biased topics when it comes to the media. You never hear these issues when the Republicans are in office. Of course the idea isn't wrong, it's just the timing is predictale (Republicans not in office and it's almost election time).

This is proof that for the ruling class life really is just a game... of Monopoly ™️ .

At this point the EU should just set a timer for complaining that Microsoft uses Windows' large market share to force services on their users. I do like efficient governments.

To be fair, Trump is his own class of corrupt.

Windows 11 was mostly released to take advantage of Intel's split of CPU cores into efficiency and performance cores (E and P cores). If you don't care about these E-cores or don't have them, Windows 11 looks like just a small UI change at first glance.

Terrorists.

Worst part is that for some of these people, watching their children die is not a wake up call. They form very tight groups who comfort each other as their children die, saying:

It's not your fault, you did all you can do.

This world needs a serious dosage of accountability.

Because transgender (anti)rights have nothing to do with religion; it's simply the transgender people's turn to be thrown under the bus so the conservatives can continue virtue signalling.

I remember someone on reddit had a very, very long list of Republicans doing something sexual with minors or towards minors (like driving to a school and jacking off). So, can we expect some friendly fire here?

Perhaps it is time for big companies to start funding Godot?
