I mean this is how all welfare works, isn't it? If as a society we think it's important to reallocate some resources so that people can get food in bread lines, we generally do that.

I expect familiarity would be a big confounder either way? The first time you see the new font it might be harder than something like times new Roman if you've seen that thousands of times and gotten used to its hinting

Is this be cause they're paying the residential proxy owners some of it?

But the names we're talking about are the ones used to market software to users? I don't see how the same logic doesn't apply

South Korea has both a fairly active feminist movement (although small - you can look up their 4b push and etc) and a very active anti feminist political wing. A guy was pardoned for stabbing a retail worker who cut her hair short, there&#x

That really should only matter for the direct maternity leave and maybe some disruption at work during pregnancy. The years of child raising after that point is probably more important for this?

In other countries women are more able to do both. You have to reckon with the wage decrease for mothers being especially high in south Korea at least?

You can guess exactly how authorities would define "political agitation", though. dangerous things to allow them to ban.

The memes around Fate were especially annoying for this. Anything but a "dated" entry, I guess.

I thought China also wanted them banned to dogfood domestic chips?

It's a combo - quite a lot of self published books are basically kindle exclusives and their Drm and format is now annoying to crack.

It would be before the congestion fee anyway - parking costs alone are absurd and cumbersome right?

I don't think poor people who lived in NYC were driving that often anyway? cars are expensive to begin with and parking is crazy in that part of the city

What do you imagine would use that? I can only think of smooth scrolling on a web toon or something, but you would want much better color reproduction first.

The media is generally fairly complacent about it - the drama is good ratings material. And you can't link angry blue sky posts or substacks really. Occasionally someone does comment about it and get flagged, ofc? and this article is p

it's easier for me to touch my thumb to the bottom of my finger (palm side) than the other way around, and you could also press it into whatever you're holding potentially. might mean more accidental presses though

maybe wear the button on the underside of your finger?

Plenty of bands on Bandcamp selling tapes as merch in my experience. I think they're more of a physical collectable item instead of a genuine medium for most of the buyers though?

Trying to convince me to buy things isn't always good for me, though. It's good if the thing is useful or I already needed one and just need to know about brands, but a lot of advertising is trying to drive up consumption in more

If you can get a private tracker or sonarr running, pretty much no ads.

I'm sure this will be exactly the popular attitude - yes, the evidence and videos people see and form emotional reactions based on are fake, but the problem is real and so we should let it slide and just assume something exactly like t

I think the main reason they aren't competing as much now is that blu ray players / computers with disc drives / consoles with disc drives are getting more scarce? I don't even know where I would get a good blu ray drive

Where's the amazon prime tier where I don't get ads?

Agree, but I think they moved away from growth to this not because they lost investor money / vc demands but because they started losing a lot of licensing deals and content, and had to shift from redistribution to making more and more

I think ideally you'd have 2-3 streaming services that all have all the content without exclusives? (So the spotify of movies and tv, the tidal of movies and tv, the bandcamp of movies and tv...)

One wonders why other, well funded games stores can't compete on features and sales pricing with steam? Epic is giving games away but it still doesn't seem worth it to me to switch over because they lack steam input, good achievem

I actually think your usage is pretty different from the usual ai style, if that means anything. More traditional? I'm not sure why you needed it for edits though, since you seem good at writing generally.

Seems unlikely with the steam machine coming? I haven't heard any sign of it specifically being frame only

Isn't this why transit advocates try to reduce the need for owning a car though? I'm thinking a really good search engine would not make you reach for ai as often and so could be eco friendly that way

Not as tuned for engagement as now, but we had to have yellow journalism laws for a reason too. There's always been lots of propaganda and manipulation and bad actors in journalism.
