We’re watching Microsoft ruin another company. Its like if EA or IBM buys something, its enshittified and rent seeking occurs for shareholders.
Once this Windows monopoly has passed due to the abysmal quality it will hopefully be over, and hopefully AI helps remove barriers to file portability to hasten their demise.
Bitcoin makes sense when the government prints 40% more currency and inflates assets, like Covid.
You’re assuming these people are doing something useful, they could be dealing with Microslop licensing as their full time job. Which is definitely a full time job, its just not useful work in the broader sense.
I wonder if it isn’t that AI is good, its that all other software is ass.
I use a patching software, antivirus, and backup software at work and they’re all now broken, after being patched. One is a 10.4B dollar company with a critical bug.
Though an install is like 8gb now, instead of 700mb.
Is Microsoft just another name for Microslop?
Fake money for criminals is speaking of USD here?
Just because it grows at 8% doesnt mean its fake, its also fake because the Fed is a corrupt institution that stopped caring about measuring real inflation a long time ago.
I felt like I had imposter syndrome at my tech job, and then we got a boss whose only contribution is to make chatgpt goals and objectives. Which he can’t understand them himself, because he gets called out in the meeting for obvious bullshit, and he defends himself by saying he has chatgpt summarize it.
AI has made me feel better about my own capabilities, because I realize most people are idiots. AI makes them clearly visible to everyone, and theyre too dumb to realize how obvious it is. Its a trap for the lazy, the 40% that do nothing at their job, and they are too clueness to understand what they’re doing.
Pcloud has lifetime deals with encryption.
I’ve had it for a very long time and paid once long ago. It works on Linux as well.
I’m excited because I think AI will break down and erode proprietary file formats, for ultimate portability between different software providers. That for me is a game changer in how software is used, and opens up real competition and innovation. Thats not anything as grand as the AGI these founders keep vaporwaring, but I think it will still be substantial.
Utilize authelia perhaps?
