Re: Well, would you believe it????
Getting rid of actors, artists, musicians,voice over artists and anyone else with a bit of talent, so that big business can pump out even more bland and utter dogshit content, but now for lower cost.

European chip lobby seeks more government cash and policy clout

"Hi can we have more money....
...so we can finish building what you already gave us a load of money."
"No. And if you don't deliver what we agreed upon in order that you get that money, we'll take you to court for a 109% refund"
Of course, the contracts, like many large project contracts, are probably so badly worded, it will never happen.

Volt Typhoon suspected of exploiting Versa SD-WAN bug since June
Tuesday 27th August 2024 19:23 GMT
Sigh...
I REALLY hope this isn't as it reads, i.e. blame the customer, not the manufacturer. I know nothing about the system, so ..
"It affected customers that hadn't implemented Versa's recommended system hardening and firewall guidelines, and, as a result, had a management port exposed to the internet"
I hope by DEFAULT the management port isn't exposed and they are saying, follow our guides and DON'T expose it, rather than the typical, "yeah it's wide open by default and you really should lock it down"

Re: "late-stage capitalism"
Add to that removal of features you already had.
Example
You pay £10 a month for a service.
However that is now being replaced with a "Premium" service for £5 extra a month. However there is a new "Basic" service that is the same price, but now with less features and ads. This is to allow you a greater freedom of enhanced customer experience.
Or how about the likes of Just Eat. "20% off on Tuesdays" where all the retailers increase their prices by 20% every Tuesday.
Writers sue Anthropic for feeding 'stolen' copyrighted work into Claude
Wednesday 21st August 2024 01:01 GMT
For those defending AI copyright theft...
don't complain when you lose your job....and stop complaining job has been offshored to a cheaper location, it's no different.
If you make something and the Chinese rip it off and sell it for a fraction of the price, putting your company out of business, though shit, no different.
Just because it doesn't affect you, doesn't make it right.
Oh and this bullshit "all humans copy"
If you directly copy someone's work you get sued
If you are inspired and write your own, that takes skill and learning.
Cloudflare calls for regulatory harmonization amid rising internet challenges
Tuesday 20th August 2024 22:39 GMT
I love the free speech people.
They are the same type that make it illegal to tell a woman where she can have an abortion or throw a hissy fit a 2 year old would be embarrassed by, when a school renamed itself rather than be associated with a slave trader. Or how about not having the freedom to teach kids about sexuality identity, or the freedom to read books about gay couples.
Yeah, those free speech lovers.

How much holiday do US workers get?
How much sick pay do they get?
How much maternity leave do people get?
What's that? If you're sick it comes out of you non existent holiday allowance?
What? Mother's have to come in the day after the birth so they can afford to eat?

From windfarms to Amazon Prime, UK plans to long range test six drone services
Friday 16th August 2024 11:48 GMT
Do not want....
. delivery drones.
We've spent decades reducing noise from vehicles, no we face drones.
If you thing it's exaggerated, listen to a single drone...now image ten, a hundred, a thousand.
Do you REALLY need that bit of pointless tat two hours earlier?
I dropped Amazon's bullshit lying Prime (remember when it used to be next day?}
And I've saved a fortune. Im now more likely to shop around and get it for less money. In fact it also stopped impulsive buying knowing, shock, it may take a week to get to me.

India shuffles away draft law treating influencers like real broadcasters
Wednesday 14th August 2024 09:01 GMT
Re: "require online content creators to register and be subject to the same laws as broadcasters"
Because of this
"pre-certify their material through an internal Content Evaluation Committee (CEC) and appoint staff to handle complaints."
So how is a one person streaming to a hundred people once a month .supposed to comply?
And pre-certify.....yeah, don't criticise the elected officials or criticise a religion or call out corruption or...or...
