Wtf? Where? I have three and zero ads.

If I select a top row app, that application can “advertise” what’s new on the top half of the screen. That’s it.

Apple TV the device has no ads, zero, nada.

The person in question was German. Microsoft found suspicious images on their Skydrive and shut down the whole MS account, Xbox and all.

What was it? Pictures of his kids on the beach, which the puritan American algorithm determined as evil

Every cloud provider scans their storage, because the law is like that.

People have gotten their MS accounts closed when Onedrive was still called Skydrive due to automated scans finding suspicious activity

What ”launcher”? The TV app? You can just move it away. There is no launcher anywhere, every service along with AppleTV+ is just a separate application

And Google spyware is all open source?

Not at this scale. Remember that Apple is a hardware company first. They make money from hardware and app stores.

Google is the worlds largest ad company who dabble in hardware and services to increase their ad revenue.

What? There’s one icon that says “TV”. You can move it to the bottom and you won’t see any apple stuff beyond that.

Not a popular answer, but Apple TV is the best out of the box experience. Zero ads, massive longevity. Mine is like 7 years old and still running the latest tvOS.

If you have the cash and inclination, Nvidia Shield is the hackers choice. Zero hardware upgrades in years tho, but software aplenty.

Just don’t let your smart TV access the internet in any situation, there’s no need. It’s just a stupid display.

Booksellers “carry” utter shit.

Guess what they do when the book is refunded by the publisher due to bad sales? They cut off the covers and send them back as proof. The pages are destroyed. Nobody bats an eye.

No publisher or bookseller wants to carry 50000 copies of Joe Bob’s “How to cook maggots” when it flopped

Also how do you know if my fanfic is a physical book sold at a store or not? 😀

Rare doesn’t automatically imply valuable, useful or anything like that.

My Anthony Fauci x Drowsy Don fanfic is “rare”, but nobody including me would bat an eye if it was destroyed.

3.3 million views a month isn’t exactly new creator levels

How can they suck that bad? A 29€ raspberry pi with a basic ML model can get 90% accurate results

Yea, I have the VNC virtual docker hack running and it’s annoying. The weird UI is even worse because the virtual desktop doesn’t map properly and dialogs become full screen affairs etc.

I’m trying to use it as little as possible 😅

Need to look into your ebook flow.

I… dislike Calibre because of the “unique” UI setup and the fact that it’s next to impossible to self-host on a NAS.

But sadly it has every feature ever, which makes it essential and irreplaceable.

“For thousands” is a fucking rounding error in services with about a billion accounts and DAU in hundreds of millions.

Big household name gaming companies have devs who burn 20k in tokens A MONTH.

A 50k machine that can run a model locally with 0 monthly costs will pay for itself in 3 months.

Have you tried running a local model on a M series Mac?
