So it’s a regular business now?
So it’s a regular business now?
Why is it called “OpenSubtitles” if you have to pay for it to use it in any capacity?
Wait, Net Neutrality was removed?
They shouldn’t force you to use a specific web browser to use the website properly. Google Chrome shouldn’t be the new Internet Explorer 6.
There’s like an ad every paragraph or two on sites like these. Then apparently that’s not enough so they have auto-playing video ads and pop-up ads too. Do they seriously think people will tolerate this and not go off the website?
I remember when at my 2-4 grade school my teachers talked about “x-ing” out of programs and applications on a computer instead of closing. Something like this would be a surprise.
Wait, did all cables collect metal particles all the time, or did the MagSafe charger change that so it suddenly started doing that to every charger you own?
Why is this man getting years in prison for a copyright violation? People shouldn’t be jailed for that, monetary fines is enough. There’s no reason this man should be jailed for uploading gameplay videos online.
And they’re staring to have Battle Passes have multiple tiers of cost such as in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and NBA 2K24. What’s next? Multiple battle passes at once like in the free to play Monster Legends? In $69.99 priced games? Where the battle passes cost at least $19.99 per month?
The Wikipedia article says “payola” is an illegal practice and that text links to “commercial bribery” - so are they starting to get bribed into doing stuff like this too even though it’s a paid service? That “they want all the money” statement must go deeper than I thought.
Why are they getting patents for stuff like that? I thought patents were for mechanical inventions only, not new money schemes to stop others from doing the same so you’re known for that scheme?
I got my fourteenth Twitter anniversary message sent - after seeing the X logo appear instead of the iconic Twitter bird logo.
Wait, what do you mean Net Neutrality died? I thought they lost signing the bill to end it?
Wait? Android isn’t Linux based?
What was Heartless Ansem’s famous quote again? Oh yeah. “And now darkness within darkness awaits you.” But ads instead of darkness.
Sounds interesting. I stopped playing Neopets fully a few years back.
How does that even work? Is it even possible to do that on mobile?
The API changes were the trigger for the recent controversy and the fact that they may be forced to use the buggy official app instead of an unofficial but stable and well developed app pushed people too far. The API change is what caused the blackout and disgust for Reddit.
Wait, the default thumbnails are no longer just chosen from three points in the video based on percentage? Now they use algorithms to generate a suitable thumbnail too?
Is OpenAI a regular business too?
