My Pixel will still be covered for 7 years though right? I need those upstream updates for GrapheneOS.
I try to respond to every genuine engagement. I block trolls, contrarians, and provocateurs because life is too short.

It’s funny watching them rig the system and simultaneously keep shooting themselves in the dick.
Nvidia - desperate not to lose business as they’re now ~93% dependent on AI sales, so they keep ‘investing’ in OpenAI, Anthropic, etc… Who turn around and of course immediately buy Nvidia AI chipsets.
OpenAI and Anthropic - panicking that investors will realize their IP is worth nothing (what we’ve said all along) as they are overtaken by much cheaper models, so they lower their pricing drastically - can’t risk losing that market share*.
*market share is irrelevant really, there is no first-to-market winner in AI, but you cant lie to idiots investors for another 16 rounds of funding to 2030 unless you can show userbase growth to them.
Really hard to keep propping up the con when barely anyone is paying.
Fingers crossed for horrible things to happen to then soon.

I’m guessing it gives them legal footing to proceed with requests via police to ISPs, service suppliers etc to attempt to identify them?

Remember when piracy was shrinking and Netflix was cheap and had a good deal of content?
Ah well, if only we can figure out what changed.
I guess we’ll instead try prohibiting VPNs, when something is in demand… prohibiting it always works great with zero unintended consequences.

Highly recommend the Streets of Rage Red Bull Music Festival stream where both creators perfomed most of the classics live for anyone who hasn’t seen it.
Some do, because RPCS3 lets you play games directly from an internal bluray drive and also to create ROM dumps (actually BluRay disc images).
