Yup. It was clear to me that the Racing Point they had years ago (you know, the year they shamelessly copied Merc's design) was the second best car on the grid, but neither Stroll nor Perez could properly take advantage of it. Call me crazy, but I reckon if Hamilton were in that car, he'd still have won WDC.

If Stroll were anybody but the team owner's son, he'd have been gone long ago. I admire that Lawrence loves his son so much, though.

That's their point.

I tried to get everyone on Signal, and I personally donate £5 monthly to Signal, but everybody left. I'm forced to be 100% WhatsApp, because that's what society uses.

I'm somewhat annoyed that the EU offered Signal the chance of becoming relevant on a silver platter, by forcing WhatsApp to open itself up and offer interoperability with other chat apps, while still maintaining proper E2EE using the Signal protocol, and Signal said nah.

E: oh, and I don't manage to play much on my PC these days (my gaming time these days is more "oh, I have 20 minutes free, I'll play on my steam deck while chilling on the couch for a bit!"), but on the once in a blue moon occasion I do, I'll open up Discord, because good look trying to get people to use anything else.

I can download a decent size LLM such as Llama 3.1 in under 20 seconds then immediately start using it. No terminal, no complicated git commands, just pressing download in a slick-looking, user-friendly GUI.

They're trivial to run yourself. And most are open source.

I don't think this would be enforceable at all.

In what way? As in their future node having issues? Yeah.

As in them staying on their existing mode for ages? No. Their existing node is ridiculously expensive to produce, which is a big part of why Intel uses TSMC a lot now, and why nobody seems interested in Intel's fabs.

This doesn't appear to be comparing them, though? Just explaining what two acronyms are?

I think Plasma BigScreen has been effectively abandoned.

BigScreen is also basically no longer in development, IIRC.

Of course they know.

When Ticketmaster does their surge pricing, the musicians also take a cut - the extra profit is split.

It's a win-win for them both. They both get more money, and Ticketmaster gets all the blame, absorbing all the hate, which they don't care about.

Yep.

Something tells me that Google won't be turning down fast food companies that want to advertise with them, or reducing recommendations of channels that show off/review fast food a lot.

Maybe I'm being cynical, but this seems more like a "let's get some good headlines" ploy than something that will seriously help anybody.

I don't know what the best course is, but screwing over channels that promote exercise and healthy living doesn't sound like a good option to me. Even if they can exacerbate some people's perceived body issues.
