One word. Tesla.

It became the Apple of automobiles and everyone was rushing to copy them. Then came the fall of Elon and everyone is realizing how full of shit the company is.

Well, this is The Register. Not exactly a paragon of stellar reporting here.

I switched to Firefox over the summer and have been mostly happy with my decision.

However, there have been a LOT of issues with video playback on certain sites and I really don't know how to fix them. Searches have been just about useless in regards to finding a fix. The worst one is Nebula. The video often just freezes while the audio just keeps trucking along like nothing is wrong. This has happened to a more limited extent with some YouTube videos as well. And the TAB crash on some sites is quite infuriating.

1. Lack of competition in the market via mergers and acquisitions

2. Companies change things on the back end (“twiddle their knobs”) to improve their fortunes and have a united, consolidated front to prevent any lawmaking that might constrain them

3. Companies then embrace tech law to prevent new entrants into the market or consumer rights (see: DMCA, etc.)

This is the criteria he has laid out for the "enshitifacation" of the Internet.

This is funny to me because this is the exact pattern of every industry and service in the United States ever. The Internet isn't special, it's just the latest frontier for capitalism.

True. The instant response that exists now is only because this is a pilot program and they want to prove that it works. Once it's normalized they will lay off most of the rider support and fuck you if you have to wait on the line.

No, but then the same is true of taxis and Ubers. They all have some kind of recording equipment in them for ensuring safety and cover in case someone claims something.

I lieu of that, I'd say the mods should just go limp. Stop moderating content and let posters run wild. The company needs to realize just how much their business model depends on all that unpaid labor.

I just never gave my TV access to the Internet and use my home theater PC to watch stuff. Never seen a need for more.

Remember when we used to say, "Don't put your name on the internet?" And now it's everywhere?

Mine isn't, go ahead and look it up. You won't find my name anywhere in the internet.

Here it is encrypted so only you can read it: >!John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!<

I had been wondering why everybody was so angry at them for implementing anti-cheat software. I didn't realize that they were locking out Linux users. That's a bunch of bullshit.

IIRC it's completely legal to walk around fully nude in San Francisco.

Edit: I was at work so I couldn't look this up to post it but yeah, there's a website dedicated to it.
