I doubt that. Spotify has always been an immoral company and gets worse and worse over time because it's making them money. They're not going to self-destruct when they're the default app for streaming Joe Rogan's bad ta

Spotify has gone bad a long time ago. Hell, Spotify was born bad. This is about a new way that Spotify is deciding to be bad.

Tidal is a pretty good general music app as a Spotify alternative and reportedly pays artists a lot more for plays. I also fairly liked Qobuz, a French service, but ended up dropping it because it didn't have the kind of "just pla

I suspect chasing glory is the main driver yes, but we also like to understand how things came to be , and by knowing who made them and when and where we can do that. AI is ushering in a dark age of attribution where we may no longer be ab

I've switched from Firefox to Orion on my work Macbook and I agree it's a bit rough. But I've never used Safari as a daily driver so I can't tell if it's Safari's fault or Orion's fault. The biggest issue

I don't think any of those are things AI can't excel at in 5-10 years. The latter 3 will require integration with robotics, but that's not exactly science fiction these days either, it's just something that maybe nobody

No I don't think it did. I'm not sure you're understanding the scale of things here. I don't believe it came close at all , if "close" means that a ground team could have sterilized the planet afterward. Even

This is clear even without that knowledge if you take a long enough view. The sun will eventually boil our oceans, and then later the solar system will spend the vast majority of its existence in total darkness.

More likely that if it's even possible, the chance is near 100%. However, it actually doesn't matter in any way whatsoever.

Your sink isn't exposed to UV light, dust, mud, extreme temperature changes, etc. I don't know either way if any of those would have an effect, but it's not at all a clear analogy between a kitchen sink and an automobile.
