Someone has to write it though. LLMs make low-quality output in high volumes, and sometimes we find a situation where that's actually good - like this one!

What's the chance he would then get mad in a week when his monitor has visible burn-in, and try to return it?

It's not "simple" physics. Or can you explain the physics? Every display technology tries to suffer burn in if there's any long-term physical change at all from lighting up a pixel, because it will affect the ones that a

Indeed. Most of the barrier is the sheer breadth of devices on the market meaning nobody knows anything about your specific one. This is solved when you can automate it, no matter how bad the automation is as long as it works.

You definitely shouldn't assert that someone is antisemitic based on the current US House, even if bi-partisan. And I thought bills of attainder were unconstitutional? To answer your question of why, it's probably because they mak

Right to be forgotten is part of GDPR even though most people only think of cookie banners. There's no one-click export, either.

The government would just break glass on every transaction because what would you do about it?

Why should they keep FTP or Gopher alive, or support Gemini, when they're just worse HTTP? I think they should make it possible to write a new protocol handler though.

It's like saying the web was coopted into delivering nothing but ads.

Mastodon is indeed a collection of small social networks with limited interoperability. Federated toots are second-class toots - you won't see all their replies. Think of how iMessage degrades when someone in the conversation isn'

I also remember reading somewhere that relays aren't allowed to copy other relays.

It's actually more analogous to HTTP saying that proxies and reverse proxies are banned.

Yes, we solved it by centralising and ceding our power, so that two companies can see when a lot of people get the exact same message, and delete it for them.

The problem wasn't about private conversations being too public, it was about intentionally public conversations being too hard to coordinate.

Protocols are always developed by entities. Suppose the protocol changes - who decided that? About the only ownerless protocol is Bitcoin (not Ethereum, Monero or any other one) and it still has an entity with soft power over it.

You don't want people to actually use it because like all cryptocurrency it's got quite limited maximum throughput. The problem is worse than usual with Monero - because it's so secure, no data can ever be proven to be unused

Buying drugs. And even when it's not drugs, I sometimes use it to pay for things online because Visa randomly doesn't want me to use my Visa card for unknown reasons.

These things have more effects than you think. IPFS just lost all funding because the NFT craze is over and they didn't find any alternative grift. That means the public gateways and general knowledge of the project will fade away and

Note that this assumes cloud-based. A rack full of hard drives is far cheaper per GB than either, even at 50% utilisation and 2x redundancy. (It would have to be! Amazon obviously wants to make a profit)
