Very interesting read, thanks for sharing.

“Capitalism operating normally” is often unacceptable as well. This is one such case. At best, they screw over a few people with no public backlash. There should be backlash.

So would you say it’s worth replacing ublock with adnauseam?

It’s because despite what economists believe, prices are not determined fairly by the market but are dictated supply-side. So this kind of “testing” is one of the more blatant ways in which consumer trust is violated in the name of maximizing profits. It makes it obvious that you’re not paying a fair price for a service or product, but a price that was dictated for someone else’s convenience without taking your interests into account at all, violating the social contract.

So your argument is that because there are some exceptions to a rule, the opposite of that rule is true.

Of course it does. It prevents oligopolies.

You say “especially” when it’s more like “almost exclusively”. Almost all games not bundled with malware (kernel-level anti-cheat) work with zero or minimal tweaking. It gets a little harder if you like to play with mods, though.

Linux gaming has come a long way. Back when The Witcher 3 came out, there was no Proton and running a game with Wine involved a lot of tweaking. Even then, I got better FPS than in Windows but it was hard. Now, I don’t even think about it. I just assume it’ll work.

My experience exactly, I had hand surgery late afternoon and spent the night at hospital because I only woke up from sedation at around midnight, but since it hadn’t been 24 hours between the anaesthetic and the early morning discharge, wheelchair it was.

Shit, really? That sucks, I was really enjoying it. Now it’s one more thing to looK into. thanks for the heads-up.

What does that mean?

I’ve been using Zen for work and Waterfox personally. With the right extensions, you never see a single ad.

Congress is already giving them your tax dollars. They’ve gotten a number of tax breaks and subsidies.

What?

In very simple terms, a token is more or less a word. You pay per input and output tokens (your prompts and the answers) as they correlate the most closely to the energy expended by the LLM to process your request.

Is there an Android solution that works with Pass?

That’s what they claim, of course.
