Google and Microsoft didn’t “kill” the decentralised e-mail of yesteryear. They beat it fair and square

Sure, they might’ve cornered the market fair and square, but they’re certainly doing anticompetitive things in keeping it cornered.

Just try setting up a mail server not connected to any of the big corpos (Google, MS, Cloudflare or their clients with more niche marketing) and see who will actually recieve your mails. You most likely won’t land into the Spam folder either.

But is there any precedent in selling accounts due to a court decision? Does the social media company get to close the account due to the TOS violation?

In any case, if it does get sold, it’ll create an interesting situation.

Microsoft should go macro-shaft themselves.

Was McDonalds ever cheap in the first place?

Yes, but framing is important. Saying “Oh look what our perfect corporate buddies over at Taylor let us do even though it’s their call” (a huge lie btw.) vs. saying “We finally got this victory, we can finally do part of what we should’ve never have been unable to do due to corporate greed, thank you Taylor for getting some sense, it seems like your scrooges still have some semblance of a soul left” is a big difference. As always, the truth is somewhere in between these two extremes. However, I’m inclned to lean towards the latter more than the former on the spectrum.

Yes. Just as entering through an unlocked door isn’t trespassing.

Most of the sources also have copyright notices the model gobbles up, effectively making it more like trespassing and taking the no trespassing sign home as a souvenir.

In a few years they’ll charge you monthly for the priviledge of using/knowing what it collected on you.

Oh, if Disney Corp could use the mouse pointer or the one on your desk, or even a living breathing mouse, or whatever else mouse or not rest assured - if killing you somehow benefits them they’ll do it. They might do it from sheer incompetence too and they’ll try to write it off as business as usual. Also, it applies to anyone you know for good measure.

I was wondering, what makes the modem that hard to replace?

I get that the embedded systems in cars are complex works of engineering, but I don’t see why there can’t be some sort of standardized physical interface akin to OBDII to be used to ‘upgrade’ the modem.

It’s not twitter it’s Xitter!

Still, Steam probably has some clause in their developer agreement where they say that’s not on them.

Even its name is full of shit. a hallucination

There, fixed it for you.

Not really. Showing ads and gobbling up data is Google Search’s core functionality, and JS is indispensible for that.

While some just snap a photo. And both are equally copyrightable

Depending on which country you live in and who (or better: what) you are - if you’re a McD McEmployee, you’ll might personally feel the McWrath for filing the complaint - not just having the weight of theorethical jobs lost on your soul.

Not everyone believes an AI bubble is forming

Well, the AI’s not wrong. No one believes a bubble is forming, since it’s already about to burst!

It’s not about ABS, its about BS like an everything touchscreen, tracking, bullshit subscriptions and the like

It is about them and their honour.

However, their honour isn’t how they’re percieved and treated by others, it’s how they themselves act. They’re the first ones who should show honour and dignity towards their defendants, clerks, etc.

Angry fits like this one just show the judge got corrupted by power and should either be given time to reflect or disbarred.

No.

As the AI said, the l in “LLM” (Large Language Model) stands for lntelligence. (Notice the “l” is a lowercase l).

So, AI is very lntelligent. Gotta give it props for that.

Therefore, AI is very dumb

Which clearly gives them a carte blanche to genocide and apartheid
