Funny world when advertisers have better morals than some people.

Finally I can transfer my one and only chat to my PC

How does RT only titles work on consoles? The RT really isn’t that powerful, aren’t they supposed to be equivalent to an RTX 2070 at best? It sounds like the graphics difference will be quite a lot for PC vs consoles.

I use Feedly for discovery, they have a crap load of websites you can subscribe to even if the websites don’t explicitly advertise RSS.

And then use the Feedly desktop website to get the actual RSS URL and put it in the client of your choice 🙃

Oh cool, wasn’t aware of that.

I haven’t read the full article due to sign up paywall, but…

First, millions of small business owners and influencers who make a living on TikTok were left to beg their followers in TikTok’s last moments to follow them elsewhere in hopes of being able to continue their businesses on other corporate social media platforms. This had the effect of fracturing and destroying people’s audiences overnight, with one act of government.

How is decentralised social media going to help with this if the entire point of decentralisation is the opposite?

As an Indian, welcome to the party.

In this context? Absolutely not.

Not really.

• like I said bandwidth required is insanely high, 4k movies are around 30-60 gb (for download not streaming). Extrapolate that to 8k, and a TV series? No one is going to reserve potentially 500gb to 1TB for a TV series in 8k for local download
• phones especially mid rangers are still somewhat struggling with watching 4k content if it is local, not to mention even 4k is useless for the screen size of a phone. Every thing is mobile driven these days in terms of design.
• 8k is not going to be worth for monitors because of their size
• Top of the line graphic cards still cannot max out the latest games at 4k60, how can they achieve 8k? Not to mention the power draw will be higher.

Sorry but no way native 8k is going mainstream any time soon. 4k is genuinely better looking over 1080p but 8k to 4k is not much of a difference for the relative increase in requirements.

I doubt the general public cares about or can even tell the difference from 4k to 8k. Not to mention the amount of bandwidth that will be required.

I know what you mean but saying this on a decentralised federated social network which encourages separate instances is very ironic

Counterblaste is a lovely word. Lots of gravitas.

Wait what I thought this was satire at first

You can still do that, the article is fucking stupid. If you don’t have the correct requirements you will never get Windows 11 officially. You can however create a custom install of Win 11 using tools like Rufus to bypass the TPM requirements.

The point of the change is that now if you install it on an unsupported machine, you won’t get any official support; they’re not stopping you from messing with the OS installer but you will still NOT get the upgrade officially and if you do upgrade and find some issue they ain’t helping you.

IIRC they used to pester users with this unsupported setup to upgrade to a correct setup and they won’t do that any more.

Unless Spotify drastically changed their backend it doesn’t make sense why firing one person will make algorithms stop working

“It is a good life we lead, brother.”

“The best. May it never change.”

“And may it never change us.”

Assassin’s Creed 2 still has the best intro of all time, fight me.

Sounds like you don’t even know what GOG does?

Switch to firefox.

Yep, you’re right there.

everyone seemed to jump to conclusions.

Honestly, everyone’s been so burned by companies pulling the wool over their eyes that there’s just no trust left. People were happy with Mozilla 5-6 years ago and nowadays everyone is a skeptic.

You might be right in this case but they weren’t wrong.
