They took so much work that prusa put into the 3d printing world, and are then trying to lock it behind closed doors. I don’t want to buy from a company who only exists from stifling innovation.

Okay but irrelevant ads is the dream. I’d prefer not to get recommendations at all either. I’ll hear from word of mouth what’s worthwhile to watch, or I’ll look for it myself. Recommendations consistently muddy things up, it makes all modern social media useless, I have no idea how people can put up with it.
I don’t know if there’s a clean way to do this right now, but I’d love to see a software project dedicated to doing this. Once a data set is poisoned it becomes very difficult to un-poison. The companies would probably implement some semi-effective but heavy-handed means of defending against it if it actually affected them, but I’m all for making them pay for that arms race.
Hey they said one of.
Number 2.
5 could work if it was refined a bit more.
It’s likely a scheme to entice people onto their platform because they’re not as trusted as valve or gog. If they become a monopoly then we’ll get to see all the various catches to that.
I didn’t read the article, i just want to rant into the void about this thing that itches in my mind when I see this topic.
I don’t want a robot that looks human. Even if they manage to make one that’s convincing and isn’t nightmare fuel, I’m still going to be uncomfortable around it. It’s because of the fact that this robot’s existence would be inherently deceptive, trying to fool you into thinking you’re talking to a human, only for you to find out that this thing isn’t human. It falls out of the visual uncanny valley, but into an entirely new one, a more existential uncanny valley. If you want me to trust a robot, you can’t make it immediately try to deceive me into thinking it’s human. Look at movies and cartoons, the most appealing robots in those media are obviously robots. I’m sure there are a good few Androids that look human and are appealing in their own way, but for the most part you get things like Wall-e, or baymax, or r2d2, designs that are not trying to fool you into thinking they’re human. All of those designs have a charm or appeal to them, and they all look like robots. I don’t know where I’m going with this, I’m gonna go to bed.
I rarely actually pirate anything. The only time I pirate is when I’m otherwise forced to go through that specific company to do the things I want due to monopoly shit.
Used to pirate windows before switching to Linux (I still give people I know helpful tips on the process though, not everybody can make the switch yet). Used to pirate MS office and a couple other pieces of software back when I had to use them for school. I would pirate substance painter if a Linux crack was available, but I haven’t been able to find one and I can’t get the windows version working, so I simply don’t use that software. And as for shows and movies, that whole mess of subscriptions, yeah I don’t watch pretty much any of it. I buy physical copies when possible and watch stuff with friends who have the services. I use bandcamp for most of my music, sometimes YouTube for discovering new stuff.
I will however keep up to date on all of the piracy methods because i will not be caught helpless by some shitty company who thinks it’s found a way to corner me.

Idk if you can even get a 32 GB hard drive anymore. I can only find 64 GB drives for around $14
Ooh, do you know of any good ones? I wanna download a car!
I don’t think this is misleading. Misleading is when you use technically true facts to draw someone towards an incorrect conclusion. Calling a plan unlimited then having a limit is more like fraudulent if you ask me.
Alright, you do have a point there. Reading docs and asking questions is a skill too, and if you haven’t learned them yet then chatgpt can stunt your growth there, i agree with that much.
I still think that chatgpt, if used correctly, can be a huge boon to your education. Knowing how to interact with those bots to avoid their shortcomings and not use them as a crutch I think is also a skill worth learning.
Know what, that’s stupid and reductive and not even accurate to what I said, but fuck it, yes. Yes actually. Because i value my time and sanity and other people’s time and sanity. Just because i eat out every now and then doesn’t mean I can’t cook.
No, learning is there part where you have to think. That’s not when you use the robot. You use the robot when the documentation is trash and unusable and every answer you find is out of date. You use the robot when you know exactly what you want to do and how to do it and you don’t have time to trawl through the docs for the next 2 hours. You use the robot when the only gimp 2.10 tutorial on earth for how to write plugins tells you to use this funny program called gimptool but you’re new to gimp dev so you look online to see what that is only to find that there’s no mention of it literally anywhere besides your current tutorial and a disjointed man page where you can’t find the source anywhere, and the devs are all on irc and you don’t want to bother them and you’re worried that they’re just going to tell you to read the tutorial you already came from and you’ll leave empty handed. That’s when you ask the robot. It has a use, you don’t have to substitute your thinking to use it.
and there are so many cases in programming where you can save hours asking a really simple question that should be easy to figure out on your own but actually isn’t.
Well I’m not trying to argue against one being written, just that once it is written, it will still not be what it was made to be.
LinkedIn is defined by its user base of recruiters and corporations, which draws in professionals seeking jobs. It becomes a cycle, but importantly for this conversation, it is controlled by recruiters.
This is in contrast to any other social media where regular people draw in more regular people. A FOSS LinkedIn will not only have the network effect to fight, but it will also be up against the will of corporations, not just the slow buildup of users.
I guess another way to put it is a FOSS LinkedIn cannot grow with a few users joining here and there. You have to convince Amazon to move over first.
I think that because of the heavily corporate nature of what it’s used for and the fact that it requires certain corporate users to be on it, there will not be anything close to a FOSS LinkedIn for a very long time.
From an implementation standpoint LinkedIn is more or less just social media. I don’t think hiring managers will switch their tactics over to a FOSS platform without a very strong push over a long period of time. while corporate nonsense may be pushing us that way, that same bs is a boon to them if anything.
Not criticizing the website design. I don’t expect them to have an expensive flashy website. I am criticizing you for equating the snipping tool with having an unlimited budget for designers like adobe does. It does not take a team of designers to add a screenshot to your website showcasing a feature.

It seems that this is explicitly pushing prusa out of the open source model. Bambu is free to steal their innovations then add their own behind locked doors. The existence of companies like Bambu weighs us all down.
