Just days after Liberland adopted the Croatian criminal statutes and said they'd allow Croatian police jurisdiction, this happened. liberlandpress.com/2023/09/22/
It would have happened anyway, but it looks worse for Liberland after they basically pledged loyalty to Croatia.

The only way tipping makes sense is if it's a free market, eg anyone can walk up and start being a server without prior agreement from the kitchen. Is that how this started? Jesters were middle-manning the kitchen and then got dominated?

It's honestly a miracle that you can still buy "obsolete tech products" like MP3 players, CD players, pocket radios, blank CDs/DVDs, walkie-talkies, DVD players, etc at stores like Wal-Mart, Meijier, or Best Buy, even if they are cheap Chinese ones.

Who is the son of Tom Cruise's mother? ChatGPT has no idea.

garymarcus.substack.com/p/elegant-and-powerful-new-result-that

It knows who Tom Cruise's mother was, but it doesn't know who her son is.

This is because LLMs, the thing everyone is pretending is AI right now because people want to pretend it's the future to hide the decline of White civilization, doesn't know anything except which words commonly go together.

>I don't know if that will be allowed to happen because at the end of the day Nintendo/Sony/Xbox control what is or isn't allowed on their consoles

It doesn't need to be console only. Obviously the consoles being the big things kinda puts some limitations into that, but that still means subscription services for the big three and I don't know many more for PCs. I still don't see it being any beneficial for the industry in the end, we'll go back to the current video streaming situation

Netflix may have killed cable TV, which sucked, but it couldn't stay the only game in town forever because the model doesn't actually benefit non-netflix parties making content just for Netflix, it's not sustainable, hence why there's a billions of these now and they're churning out shitty content after shitty content in hope you'll jump in

None of this is sustainable in the slightest and something has to be done to fix it and the ideal result would be purchase episodes to own a la MP3, DRM free

Apparently, leaked Phil Spencer e-mail. Writes in an email about how AAA games are the biggest cancer killing video games and how it's unsustainable and how making smaller games and newer IPs is the way forward for the games industry

>Tech now
"Tsk, disgusting, who needs this expensive garbage?"

@coolboymew I think it was because back then the evolution of technology was rapid and people had more optimism where as technology now has stagnated and the only advances seem to be for more nefarious purposes of advances the surveillance state / spying on people.
