I don’t think it had prerolls during the flash days but it had banner ads as far back as I can remember

You would think that I would do some basic fact checking…
I missed when Vince Z went from Respawn to Dice LA. I retract my claims of AI
~~You would think IGN would have budget for basic fact checking but this article was probably written by AI~~ Edit: this was a bad call by me, it turns out everything appears to be accurate. I just was making assumptions based off of outdated information
I can flash my id to a bartender who doesn’t need to take a copy or otherwise retain my PII to serve me. This isn’t how we do age attestation in most cases right now. We require a third party to issue and verify identity and said third parties have been show to be poor stewards of our identity.
Markiplier did not invent Let’s Plays lol. Let’s Plays were nearly dead by the time he created his channel. He just was the first person to make FNAF Let’s Plays popular (I would assume, I’ve never watched anyone on this list because I’m over the age of 30)
Pretty good at not being Reddit which is my number one reason for using it.
Granted I never made it further than freshman level physics in college but doesn’t heat needs a media to radiate away. Otherwise it just stays in place? So there would be nothing to move the heat away from installation? The ISS uses these big radiators the emit the waste heat as infrared light. That seems like a plausible method to exhaust waste heat. But I don’t have any clue if that can scale up to the level of a huge data center compared to the systems on the ISS
The PS5 Pro is way overpriced and the regular PS5 doesn’t really have many exclusives over PS4 so it’s not a big surprise they can’t move consoles
I am skeptical that it can grow to be a network the size of twitter, be ran as a for-profit, and not enshittify. I can’t think of a single example that hasn’t. Bluesky has ran as a public benefit corporation so far, but it has to keep the lights on somehow.
It took twitter years to run somewhat profitably. Even then Twitter was enshittified before Musk bought it. Premium subs are probably the least enshittified way to raise revenue, but ads and algorithms meant to raise engagement towards those ads are very much enshittification in action. That “normal people” have a high level of monetization they are willing to tolerate, is just grease on the wheels toward enshittification.
I admittedly have a limited understanding of the full operation of ATProto so please correct me if wrong. Appviews/lists/feeds are supposed to be the defense of ad/algorithm enshittification, anyone could write an appview with a different algorithm.
And this is why I assume that the network can only be run without enshittification, is by a benevolent provider. If Bluesky becomes hostile to an Appview that allows users to bypass ads or engagement farming, users can move their PDS to another relay that isn’t hostile to it. But there still remains the underlying reason that Bluesky would theoretically have become hostile to it. I don’t see how blacksky, for instance, wouldn’t also have to eventually take the same steps.
I don’t have a single exclusive for PlayStation 5 that didn’t also come out on ps4. So idk, I’d probably say Astro Bot is PlayStation’s game
Yeah the developer might suck but an accomplished developer would have to spend more time fixing bad vibe code that is generated due to limited context window and backwards reasoning by the AI.
Vibe coding is fast because it sucks and is so sloppy
