But Few Purchase Software (Bits, Frames, Packets, Segments)

Reading? No. Tasting? Yes.

That’s kind of telling in itself to be honest. Services for most people these days mean subscription (or some kind of recurring cost). The nature of the overwhelming majority of businesses means they will be looking to increase profits. One extremely common way is to degrade the service you provide slightly. Increasing ads, lowering quality, etc.

One of the only exceptions I would say is Steam. But people could argue that Steam isn’t a true service because it’s closer to a store front, at that point you’re arguing semantics though.

There’s also self hosting a service to consider? How would that count in this instance. I self host a few things like nextcloud, Plex, and others. Yes it’s still a program and technically a service as well?

Back in my day kids played outside! Go to the park! Get some sun!

Good thing they turned the park into a parking lot for the newest CostCo/WalMart/Whatever. But why are all these kids playing on the road! I Can’t even see the younger ones, why are they so short they can hide behind my oversized SUV!

I hope they include wave motion guns even though they’re not battleships.

Please drink a verification laxative?

Germans gender hats? But I’m masculine and love wearing bunny ears! /s

Immich is generally regarded as the self hosted replacement for Google photos, personally I have been happy with nextcloud, it’s more basic for photos but still does the job for me.

Of course they wouldn’t mention it, to Microsoft they were just numbers on a spreadsheet, not people.

In the same vein, quick save and quick load.

I’ll show you the cloud district Nazeem.

I’ll be interested to see how this differs from nextcloud AIO, which is what I currently run for my own stuff.

They forgot the golden rule to never get high off your own supply.

This is the kind of thing that AI hallucinations may actually be useful for? Have it make super weird shit from feedback loops.

There was a video of AI trying to hallucinate quake, you would turn around and like you were in a dream sequence the entire world changed, that would be trippy as hell, but at the same time could be created by real people.

Mould loves an environment like that was before, ventilation helps a lot.

I was really hoping that Discovery itself was the cause of the burn due to some strange quirk of their time travel.

But no, they made the cause a literal crying child.

Honestly back when I was a kid this is how I thought games were made, every possible image of a game was already saved and according to your input it just loaded the next image.

I stopped thinking that with 3d games
