How so? I legitimately don't understand. With BTC, it's the same for everyone. Everyone can run a node. No ones node is special. Best wealth can do is buy miners to mine more coins. But that doesnt grant you more power, just more

Github is Microsoft. I expect the same from them as I do Google.

For them to elaborate on their claim of equivalency between PoS and PoW centralisation, given the exchange centralisation isn't actually an issue. To me, it would seem that the ETH PoS centralisation of power (to the already wealthy) m

Bitcoin doesn't require centralised exchanges to function, though. It's not fundamental to the coin. Is the etherium PoS centralisation required?

That's very generous of you. Thanks. All we need now is a good, local copilot implementation. Has anyone done anything like that with minGPT that you know of? Something to inspire the masses like stable diffusion has with images.

But not earnings, instead let's use wealth. Otherwise all the unemployed rich people will claim zero income and get off for nothing.

You figure dog poop science has advanced that much, eh?

Your palate is delayed here like it was when you thought McDonalds was a delicacy. If you develop it, let's revisit? :D

I didnt ever classify that hot garbage as a delicacy.

Exactly, these complaints are insane given that the source is 8 colour pixel art.

Compared to low res Sierra graphics, what's been shown here is nothing short of astounding, if you ask me. Look at the skull! It's a masterpiece.

Agreed! Would be nice to reverse the tide on that stuff though. C'est la vie.

If it wasnt clear in my reply, I agree with you. But as an aside, don't let this site get to you too much. There's a lot of arguing for sport that goes on here.

Yes, that attempt to EEE the web was thwarted thankfully.

I see. My point is it's a choice we all make everyday. How else can we do it? We can choose to live free, or as serfs. I acknowledge that you disagree. And yeah, Meta sucks.

Forgive me, I'm not sure what youre trying to say. The relevant reason not to have fiefdoms is demonstrated by the article, is it not? The king can unilaterally destroy you or your business at a whim.

I even think MBNA recently started blocking Firefox. It's a dark time for us all.

Yeah, it's going to take folks to think about what they want from the future, instead of just right now. Free market or fiefdom. Doesn't have to be Linux, but it's pretty clear walled gardens == fiefdoms. Its interesting beca

There's no inherent reason, just market effects. It's a positive feedback loop. If you want to be rid of Apple and Google, support Linux. More support will lead to adoption, and thus a bigger market. Or you can continue to genufle

As usual, the answer to 'why not Linux' is market share. Linux has numerous ways to sandbox applications. What it doesn't have is an advertising campaign promoting it on the desktop/phones. So it has a small number of us

Apples goal of planned obsolescence is self evident. The settled lawsuits confirm it to those with open eyes. Further, the wikipedia page for planned obsolescence (read the defintion they have, it screams Apple) references the Apple battery

It's not disingenuous to report what the lawsuits (plural!) were about. The lawsuits that were settled and/or lost by Apple. It was planned obsolescence. You can live in denial if you want, but Apple engages in planned obsolescenc

It was the point. It was planned obsolescence. They lost or settled several lawsuits about it.

I liked your metaphor, by the way. Thank you for engaging!

The court compels the lawyers to tell the truth or face consequences, so at the very least, out right blatent lies will be called as such by the other lawyers or the judge. Certainly things will sneak by so you should be weary of whatever i

If it's mandated? Sure it could. I agree that it would be hard but people need to remember that the government represents us. If we want it, we can make it happen.
