Asking as someone who doesn't know anything about any of this:

Does more B mean better?

I'd gladly save some gas by letting them push me

It's just that it's incredibly wasteful/polluting.

Which actually makes it illegal in some countries, too

It can pull weight at 4k, but I'm not sure if that is justification to slam it for not having the memory for 4k.

There are many games that cut it awfully close with 12GB at 1440p, for some it's actually not enough. And when Nvidia pushes Raytracing as hard as they do, not giving us the little extra memory we need for that is just a dick move.

Whatever this card costs, 12GB of vram is simply not appropriate.

I'm starting to wonder, what will YouTube do once it stops being remotely sustainable to run?

Is more efficient video compression being developed faster than people are uploading content?

Like, at some point, they might just run out of space and will have to purge millions of videos.

Does Connect You work for you? I can send messages, but if someone replies, the notification only shows their number instead of the name I saved them as, and the reply doesn't show up in the chat itself

They could just align the text bottom right, where there's less gun poking into the area

Not just guys, let me tell you

If they transparently inform buyers about the account requirement and what that means, then they have done their duty and are compliant, I'd say.

Not that I like that.

But as long as the consumer knows everything they need to know to make an informed decision about the product they're going to use, it's all good.

Now, this decision also needs to be voluntary, so if there are some dark patterns or other carefully constructed circumstances bullying the consumer into accepting all the bs, then that would violate the GDPR.

But what is voluntary or not is hard to say, for many products and services. Can be argued either way, and you better believe it will be argued either way.

Combatting symptoms is nice and all, but ideally you'd want to remove the reason these symptoms exist in the first place.

But the prices being so low is exactly what makes people care less about things like privacy, so not great either
