fyi you can do that with invidious too
i make porn
i’ve spent thousands of dollars on camera equipment
i post it online, in 4k, for free, and there’s no way to pay me for the content
i do it because i like the exhibitionism (among other things)
i do it because in the sex-positive communities i prefer to associate with, it’s like posting your day to facebook
i do it because the camera pushes me to imagine new and interesting things to do
i do it because it helps me meet people with similar tastes that aren’t flakey and are equally sex positive and non-judgemental
there’s an enormous amateur community (that often becomes professional) that makes porn because they want to… money is a nice thing to help buy new gear for porn, but it’s not the primary concern
that’s true, but this would require time and money to implement, market, etc, and would almost certainly require big b2b contracts to be signed
as aStonedSanata mentioned, different tech isn’t what we’re talking about: fibre shouldn’t be limited to the speeds of, say ADSL or cable to keep things neutral
what we’re talking about here is, for example, netflix paying your ISP to prioritise traffic to their service over other services… this causes an enormous disadvantage to new startups, because they likely can’t afford to pay a similar fee or even enter into complex agreements with every carrier! in which case, netflix has a better service not because they’re better: just because they’re incumbent
of course these kind of things happen all over the place, but it’s the exact failure of capitalist systems that governments should seek to patch with regulations (like net neutrality) because it’s not good for consumers, the economy, or innovation… which are all the very things that capitalism is meant to promote!
North American Union has a certain ring to it
and as a citizen of a country other than the US, we’re very used to america being horrifically overrepresented in any sort of politics ever no matter what :p so swings and roundabouts i guess
hopefully at least when ISPs and companies see that it’ll just be back and forth, and that things like “fast lanes” can’t be relied upon in business planning there just won’t be a market for it, or at least the fuckery will be significantly diminished because it’s not reliable long-term
okay but the clip on rj connectors is a locking mechanism which usb just lacks… break off the clip and they’re relatively equvelent no?
sure, but a $1m over how many causes? i’d assume they don’t really even use freebsd, considering macos was based in openbsd? so i’d suggest that an employee match is pretty decent
when it got shut down a lot of commenters referred to it like losing “the library of alexandria of music”
not just hard to get stuff - stuff found in dumpsters behind studios that was never released or copied - but it was all available in the highest possible qualities by people who knew how to copy sound (both in an analog and digital sense in the best possible ways), sorted and catalogued immaculately
from what i understand, the big change in chat-gpt4 was that the model could “ask for help” from other tools: for maths, it knew it was a maths problem, transformed it to something a specialised calculation app could do, and then passed it off to that other code to do the actual calculation
same thing for a lot of its new features; it was asking specialised software to do the bits it wasn’t good at
add tailscale and you’re golden
