smh Apple playing 5th dimensional chess again making stupid design decisions to get the all important lemmy advertising for free.

Tim apple is truly a genius

They were talking about warehouse workers, not corporate employees.

No rank and file US-based employees at Amazon are getting years of severance. They don’t do that.

He uses a handful of different styles

Kirkland anything (nearly anyway)

Firefox can do without Google being the default fine. What they can’t do without is all the money that Google pays them to make Google be the default.

You know, I don’t disagree with your ultimate point. But if you look through this comment chain you should recognize that the way you chose to make it is:

1. Needlessly antagonistic, and (therefore)
2. Not very effective

If you wanted to convince anyone or provoke interesting discussion I think you failed.

In the future, you should just make your argument/statement instead of asking “clever” bad faith questions.

It’s a race to the bottom.

Yes, you can decline to opt in, but the guy next to you (or the guy next to him) will opt in and sell his AI voice package for less than it costs to employ a real person. And unlike a real person, the AI voice package can work 24/7 on 10,000 productions at the same time.

If anyone can opt in, then no one can really opt out.

Is this a good thing? For the bottom line of the people making the games, sure. And maybe 3% of that savings will trickle down to the consumer.

But it’s pretty bad for the voice actors.

You’d want some way to quickly access them as well, ideally without having to unscrew the handle, so it could be a (fun?) challenge figuring out how to implement it.

I don’t 3d print but I wanted to give you props for a super high effort post. This is really cool. If I did have a 3d printer I’d give this a try.

Have you thought about a version with blade storage? It’s always handy to have a place to stash an extra blade or two to quickly swap out a dull one.

Most (maybe all) age discrimination statutes only protect people over 40 so may not apply here depending on the specifics.

If you have heavy leaf fall it’ll smother the grass and kill the lawn.

The latest fad.

Did anyone think we couldn’t? We regularly elect people to do that job.

The board has given no real reasoning for why they fired him. Until they do, there’s no reason anyone should consider this anything other than an internal power struggle that resulted in a coup.

And Sam didn’t have a job anymore. Why shouldn’t he go work for Microsoft? He was pushed out of OpenAI, is he contractually bound to never do something different?

Did musk hire expertise? Or do the actual engineering?

It sounds like your actual argument is that neither he nor they founded the company.

I guess it just sprang into existence on its own…

And thanks to you as well!

Thanks dude!

Sorry, what are the *arr apps? Not familiar with that stuff…

Ok u win. I didn’t want to admit it, but I guess because it wasnt a festival for peace it’s no big deal

Any theories on why ppl are getting all upset about this?

Maybe they havent heard you explain that it wasnt quite a festival for peace they attacked but a slightly different kind of festival?
