The Guardian is no exception when it comes to sensationalism and not presenting research findings objectively.

We cannot forget that 3dfx went under when they bought STB to manufacture their own video cards instead of letting their board partners do it.
3dfx had market dominance in 90s but then basically committed suicide.
Very true. They committed suicide when they bought STB so that they could manufacture their own video cards. They didn't just focus on chip R&D, they needed to manufacture and market their own video cards instead of letting board partners do it.
I don't get it. Without the fines, grocers will just continue to use misleading signage. And in this vague of boycotts, it's important to trust where the product is coming from. They need to be hit where it hurts (money).
Nice! I installed Linux Mint on my father's computer and I haven't been tech support since. It's been quiet days compared to when he was using Windows.
Currently replaying Borderlands 3 and playing Horizon Forbidden West.
The Fediverse is the way. In this Financialised capitalism, capitalist platforms will continue to be enshitified as they only tend to shareholders interests of continual growth. They do not care about humans.
We need to keep this momentum going.
It's not AI. LLMs are not intelligent, they do not think. It's only a marketing term.
Sigh . It's not AI; it's a machine learning algorithm. Nevertheless, this is the right use of the technology. Machine learning is all about finding correlations in big data, and this is a good example of that.
The problem will be to convince your friends and family to use Signal, and that's really not obvious.
Capitalism at its finest. As alcohol is going out of fashion, people invent new product categories to profit from, and gullible people are brainwashed by marketing to embark on this trend.
The only way to escape these companies is to prioritize your privacy. When you do so, you'll find replacements for the current capitalist platforms. For example, I switched from Windows to Linux and from Gmail to ProtonMail. I also switched from Dropbox to Nextcloud, which offers multiple services like a calendar and tasks. This means that I switched my calendar from Google to Nextcloud, for example.
