  • They aren't even disposable, so it's crazy to me how they can be sold as such.

    DOJ indicates it’s considering Google breakup following monopoly ruling

  • I don't see Amazon as a monopoly, but as far as Apple goes, they currently hold the majority of phone sales in the US. A big reason for that is that they have a history of artificially preventing you from using certain device features with non-Apple products or services. iMessage is a good example as it took an order from China for Apple to add the RCS messaging standard that Android phones have had for years. Another example is that, while music apps on Android can use Google Assistant features, only Apple Music can utilize Siri features on iOS.

  • The official support of Windows 7 has finally ended today!

  • I mean, that's a decision for the managers or execs at Microsoft, not for me. They released the product with a ton of issues, not us.

    Plus, plenty of users are sticking to Windows 10 because it's the better OS for them, whereas Windows 11 has fixed so many long-term issues and introduced enough useful QoL features that make it far better than 10 for me. I think the market share difference compared to previous Windows versions speaks volumes on how badly Microsoft screwed up.

  • As far as the performance issues go, I've experienced a lot of those when I first upgraded from 10 to 11. After reinstalling though, the performance has been amazing.

    I hate all of the constant advertising of MS products and services, especially in the case of Edge, because so many of those products are genuinely amazing, and people won't give them a chance because it's shoved down their throats.

  • The fact that an insane number of sites use it makes it a big deal. If it dies, there will be plenty of dead links

  • OpenAI to remove non-profit control and give Sam Altman equity

    Jump

  • OpenAI the non-profit owned OpenAI the company since the company was created. The non-profit is simply reducing its stake/share of the company and giving it to investors and/or Altman

  • Creators get way more money with Premium viewers than ad-based ones, or at least it used to be that way.

  • Amazon's Monopoly of the tech industry is ruining the US economy

    Jump

  • "Competitors choosing" is usually considered to be price fixing, which is anti-competitive and/or monopolistic. Amazon et al aren't the only US companies guilty of this or other anti-competitive behaviors, even if they're a notable example.

  • Amazon's Monopoly of the tech industry is ruining the US economy

    Jump

  • It's a mix of both. When Amazon came around, stores got less traffic and had to get rid of niche products, and because shelf space was so important, there could only be so many products carried by a store.

  • Microsoft inks deal to restart Three Mile Island nuclear reactor to fuel its voracious AI ambitions

    Jump

  • LLMs have real uses, even if they're being overhyped right now. Even if they do fail, though, more nuclear power is a great outcome

  • Youtube has fully blocked Invidious

  • Because there's absolutely no valuable information that exists on YouTube, right?
