Practicing his mime skills while surfing. It’s called multitasking. 😉

How else am I supposed to waste color toner so I can overbill my clients?

When are stockholders going to realize that the current Microsoft CEO is ruining Windows?

They aren’t great movies, but they translate well and perform really well in overseas markets. The previous entry made over two billion dollars worldwide. For that kind of money it’s not surprising they are making another one.

Dude could have just been successful letting Facebook be a tool to keep in touch with friends and family. Instead he has all these weird, unnecessary ideas about how to manipulate and spy on people.

This says Xbox has over 60% of global market share:

Apple doesn’t ban Mac users from downloading software outside the App Store.

Microsoft bans Xbox users from downloading unlicensed software.

Now do Xbox, Nintendo, and PS5 stores.

Clever use of the technology. I wonder if any other businesses are looking into this?

That's *always* the case.

Maybe there’s a reason for that. The word “enshitification” doesn’t exist in a void.

This seems like more of a trailer than a teaser. I’m not complaining. I’m actually unimpressed by “teaser trailers” that are just a logo or some words on the screen. It’s nice to see some actual scenes from the movie for a change.

I hope no one gets it. It should be its own separate company.

Some real “not the onion” energy.

Still waiting on an enterprising social network to start detecting photoshopped and AI-generated images, and badging them as such. If AI can generate this slop, surely it can be used to detect it.

I didn’t sound like a centralized system from the article. More like they want a third party like Verisign or something.

Something will have to be done as these platforms become more popular to cut down on fraud and disinformation. You don’t want people impersonating other people or organizations, or companies. Even if Bluesky starts federating to other platforms, just knowing that they have a blue sky blue check would be an improvement if you could display that check on other clients like mastodon posts.

ICANN has already made a mess of domain names so I don’t know if relying on the domain is enough. People are using non-Roman characters to trick people into thinking a website domain is the real thing. Others are buying up all these random domains so you get things like medicare.net and medicare.org and medicare.com etc etc.

I dunno what the answer is. Just rambling out loud in frustration.

I don’t see anything controversial in the article. Did I miss something? Just looks like a way to make sure the public figures and companies you are communicating with are who they say they are.

This isn’t going to end the studio system. What nonsense. Most studios don’t do anything with their back catalog. Just ask Zaslav, who insists on taking everything off streaming because he’s too cheap to pay residuals.

The FTC is the organization that never should have approved these mergers in the first place.
