ads cost money to increase users to eventually profit from them later.

how would a decentralized lemmy profit from the increased users.

Any money spent on ads would be better off hiring more engineering resources and improving lemmy for the next time Reddit does something dumb prompting an exodus.

we should go easy on soulja boy, he probably just needs to get money to pay his sexual assault settlement https://apnews.com/...

Twitter ran by musk is unlikely to be our savior

they fumbled so hard. they could have had millions of new subscribers if they locked the api key under reddit premium and allowed 3rd party app to enter user api keys

50 a year isn't terrible depending on your use case, but they burned so much good will

I'm not sure. I've worked at companies using amplitude and hotjar that can record all click event and sessions on web

It's because the contract sony signed with marvel back in the day stipulated that they must create a new Spider-Man movie every few years or lose the rights.

The contract specifies two key production windows:

Sony must start production within 3 years and 9 months after the previous film's release They must release the next film within 5 years and 9 months after the previous film's release There's also an important exception: if Sony releases three pictures within eight consecutive years, they can extend these deadlines to 5 years for starting production and 7 years for release

valve does a lot though. they continue to expand their store and related products, OS, hardware

if they did nothing another company would have leapfrogged them in terms of digital storefronts

I wonder if a longer term solution would be to auto rotate the server list to bump less popular ones.

unless this is an extremely long con. I haven't heard of any reports of her cracks being malware. in the case of RE village her crack improved performance vs capcom's DRM.

Two cool features would be:

• ability to delete photos. I could see searching and deleting a good workflow
• if possible, see what tags the images have to see how CLIP output works

gotta keep the kids safe from pinterest lmao

yeah but then you have to play a console without mods or cheap games

Reddit doesn't have to close in order for this blackout to be successful.

Myspace is still alive but not relevant.

I think the best-case scenerio is that the blackout, combined with 3rd party apps shutting down will cause a partial migration to fediverse-based solutions.

As long as the communities get a kickstart then it will change the companies trajectory.

I think the release for the single player game is clearly in sight with the 1 hour demo they showed last year.

OpenAI has become a load-bearing company for the tech industry, both as a narrative — as previously discussed, ChatGPT is the only Large Language Model company with any meaningful userbase

I guess this is true if we ignore Google which is more than a LLM company since that can pre-install gemini on half of people's devices and everyone interacts with using gsuite.

Not exactly, they made him remove the RDR 2 vr mod. the GTA is still up on github.

this is a terms of service issue, but they're using dmca (copyright) to enforce.

he technically has a case for selling, but defending it would be too expensive. LR also isn't socially adept so he's self-sabatoged himself too.

how do you not know how old you are?

this picture also works well. most people are attracted to visuals https://www.reddit.com/...
