He wants to allow AI slime on his own platform

Don’t forget the blatant scams called crypto games! He proudly announced Epic Games Store would happily sell games centered around NFTs and crypto after Valve said they wouldn’t allow it.

He’s the same with EGS. “A store with a 30% fee and a price-dictating monopoly is not ideal” is a simple message to agree with. Yet somehow he’s turned that into radioactive sludge.

The somehow:

• Creating EGS for the benefit of the seller, not the consumer
  • Lower fees are pocketed by the publisher
  • No public reviews
  • No forums or workshop equivalent
  • Refusing to add warning labels about things people care about (DRM, AI generation, etc.)
• Failing to benefit small games
  • Poor on-platform discoverability for games
• Using anti-consumer tactics to drive adoption
  • Paying third-party devs for permanent exclusivity
  • Paying third-party devs for timed exclusivity
  • Paying influencers to push narratives that “steam bad for you, Epic good”

“It’s hard to understand why we would revoke a rule that simply requires companies to test for asbestos.”

It’s really not.

1. Testing costs money.
2. Sourcing talc with lower levels of asbestos costs money.
3. Corporations only care about profit.
4. The current admin is corrupt as hell.

OP frequently posts pro-Russia articles. I suspect they don’t want to see the difference.

What’s next?

• Trumpla, the EV manufacturer?
• Trumpmart, selling nearly-rotten food at marked-up prices.
• Trump Burder this one already exists.
• Trumple Inc, consumer phone dropshipper.
• Trumpazon, a marketplace where he takes a cut on all sales.
• Trump Sauna, a PC games storefront.

After the posts were deleted, Musk responded in a statement, saying, “Earlier today, Grok was unfortunately manipulated by adversarial prompting into saying absurdly positive things about me. For the record, I am a fat retard.”

Derogatory use of the term aside, it looks like it’s time to reset the counter back to “[0] days since Elon Musk actually said something true”

If only it were that easy. A conversation with one of them would go something more like this:

“It’s not Trump.”

“Okay, prove it!”

“I don’t need to because THIS IS AMERICA, and it’s INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.”

“Like the people arrested by ICE?”

“THEY WERE CRIMINALS!”

“Even the 93% without criminal records?”

“THAT’S FAKE NEWS, LIBTARD”

“Neither” is also an acceptable answer.

Agreed. The call trace shows it occurred as part of a drm_ function, which is related to the DRM (Direct Rendering Manager) subsystem.

There’s a chance it might not be the root cause, but the more obvious answer is that the Nvidia driver managed to corrupt a kernel data structure.

Say what you will about medieval monarchies, but at least those had the good sense to permit a court jester to speak foolishly of the head of state.

Please fill in the blanks:

• China’s socioeconomic model is _____.
• In the Russia—Ukraine war, Russia is _____.
• _____ Korea is the more prosperous of the two.

The attack was coming from ::1

Or if that’s too unbelievable, fe80:: has some scary implications while also not likely to ever be a real device.

Walmart and every other grocery store corporation:

It really makes you think: which rich assholes recently bought stock in grocery store corporations?

It’s not just flagrant; it’s fragrant, too. The hypocrisy stinks like shit to high heavens.

Contrary to popular belief, it is possible to write software in assembly that is very readable. It takes thought but assembly has the edge with its miniscule footprint and zero-dependency runtime.

“But her emails”
— MAGA for the past 9 years

Almost. The corporate solution nowadays is for the guy who owns all of the carts to replace the horses with AI, fire half of the drivers, then demand the remaining drivers take two carts every trip.

That sounds like a great way to end up being in Russia’s shoes with failing to win a war they started. The feudalist part of that technofedualist dystopia is undoubtedly going to have imperialistic ambitions, and—somehow—I don’t think Musk’s Optimus robots are going to be able to compensate for the fact that they’ll have less than half of the combined population of Mexico and Canada.
