Feels like sam secretly wishes this to be true

Spotify intensifies

There is a summary bot that is usually the 1 comment on any article posts. Not sure why it did not appear for this.

More like stock buybacks

If it wasn’t for politics then they shouldn’t take government contracts

Ask employers

At least they are using the contraction right so I made peace with the rest of it.

If you can do the same shit with solar panels or cars or whatever device that has a proprietary bootloader or glued together, then you can climb back on to your high horse.

… shove it up their CEO’s ass?

You understand that, I understand that… but this company’s execs don’t or won’t. And the cruel thing is THEY are the CEOs and not us.

The era of company training and respecting employee intelligence is past us. It’s rare to see.

To be fair if your human agents are earning a 0 you can only go up from there. So switching to AI is a no-brainer (lol)

We should be embracing them. A lot of financial experts is good to have against the fight against ghoulish institutions in Wall St.

The risk is that he would actually have to compete instead of resting on the beach. It’s good that these people are sweating when some fire is placed under their butts in the form of competition.

Actually I can’t believe it will be business as usual (yo ho ho)

They’re actually violating laws. They want to layoff but that would involve giving severance and pay for unemployment benefits. They want to freeload off of tech worker productivity while not compensating fairly.

Its a shit service anyway. Only idiots like you suck corporate dick everytime.

Fuck off

Of course… non-americans can’t build chips and AI because they are inferior

It’s still ridiculuous how car industry friendly zoning laws implemented in the U.S.A are hurting the citizens but people genuinely argue that it’s good being stuck in their cars alone for 2 to 3 hours a day.

The answer is that in this context “Economy” means the stock price of billionaires’ vested companies, not the prosperity of a common citizen (a.k.a peasant)

Wait so 96 workers is news? Its not even noise at any mnc

But are you really going to claim that a lot of people are commuting from New york to San Francisco daily (or even across one state?)

Speaks volumes to the need for diversifying critical infra.

only corporate apologists.

It’s YouTube’s fault for setting the wrong expectations when they benefited from wild growth and success by being free all these years. I dare they go 100% paywalled. I know they won’t. Otherwise they can’t double dip on both premium and advertiser money. Even if they manage to go 100% paywall, it’s inevitable that they will start introducing adverts to paying customers as well.

They used the “You” as in the people, during their growth years to build their platform. Now they are going against the people since they no longer need us.

The day they go 100% paywalled, is the day their dominance ends. They will never do this because, contrary to the corporate dickriders in this thread they rely on bait and switch tactics to draw the crowd in the first place.

Curiously, that would mean a peer-tube network of server instances for which YouTube becomes a frontend.

Lol jokes on you. They wouldn’t dare make it completely paywalled.

Ageism exists because people above a certain age cannot keep up to the demands of the job. I am sure a lot of folk disagree here… but you would agree that old people’s brains aren’t as fast as young people and even old people experience can only hinder them in a world thats all but changed completely.

This test you speak of is how mostly it works now, but only inverted: reject the vast majority of old people… and only hire the outliers.

Consistency is the hobgoblin of mindless something… something…

Source: your ass.

I am certain i am no more entitled than the already-billionaires salivating at the ad infested internet.

Don’t be daft. Youtube gets to steal user data which is more valuable.

Things were better without blood sucking greed of the world.

“Firefox”

Much better strategy: you take the medicine… survive… and refuse to pay in protest. Sure, you might get sued for non-payment of bills… then a bunch of people can fight a class action lawsuit against pfizer.

Do you think my data and internet connection is free? Either I give some money, and hope that youtube doesn’t insert ads in the premium version of youtube or I give up my data and download obnoxious and potentially harmful ads.

They don’t have to be dicks about it. Neither do you.
