Apple doesn’t really exist as a competitor for a number of industries and use cases due to not officially supporting anything other than OSX so I’m not sure if they’re a fair comparison here.

The only real edge they have is in non-gaming related consumer workloads.

I sure hope not, it’d mess up corporate deployments and all too.

Another article did mention that it’s only for devices with Play Protect enabled so if they keep that as easy as it is to disable right now, it’ll be a non issue actually.

Why am I using an Android device then? Also how would this even work with open source apps that people build from source?

I play in SEA and see the reverse. I don’t think most China players are connecting to Oceania servers, they’re far more likely to connect to Asian servers since the data centers are usually in Taiwan, Singapore and Japan which are much closer to China.

It’s so awful too. I swear it goes down twice a month.

You’re right but at the end of the day, the average person is content with having their stuff just work for now and that’s a reasonable expectation isn’t it? If it ain’t broke, people aren’t going to go out of their way to protect themselves from a what-if that they may feel is going to maybe mildly inconvenience them when it happens regardless of what it actually is, since they may be ignorant of the true state of how things might be.

And in the end, some are just gonna accept that inconvenience from stuff not working completely rather than switch. People have been saying to switch away from Chrome for years and now even with ad-blocking being nerfed, people are still on it.

Not sure if it’s the same amount of money you’re referring to or if there’s another budget given to them but the video does indicate that for one of them, Intel claims that they have never received the money.

Honestly if that is it, it is understandable. This AI nonsense, however, is plainly a waste of money and resources, Mozilla’s and their users’.

Classic streisand effect

At this point I’d honestly even pay for a privacy focused mozilla browser that is clean of all this crap, just to keep them afloat, but fat chance of that happening.

As much as I’d love for something like that I don’t think it’s even remotely possible. I don’t think enough people are willing enough to pay for a browser that respects them, heck the amount of people who remain on Chrome shows that people aren’t even willing to take a small step to stop using a browser that’s actively working against their interests. I’d love to be proven wrong though.

Instead of capitalising on Google pissing off power users with its crusade against adblockers, why the hell is Mozilla fucking up so hard here? Seriously, which chain of command green lit all of this and didn’t even think this would be remotely an issue?

The very nature of how it functions is unreliable. It’s a statistical probabilistic model. It’s great for what it was designed to do but imagining that it has any way of rationalising data is purely that, just imagination. Even if let’s say we accept that it makes an error rate at the same rate as humans do (if it can even identify an error reliably), there’s no accountability in place that ensures that it would check the correctness like a human would.

That’s exactly what DLsite has done when MasterCard and Visa banned them. Granted, they’re Japanese so most fo their sales use Japanese methods like JCB, PayPay, etc. I’m not sure if this would kill services that didn’t have such a large domestic audience.

Nvidia would have you believe that with MFG and DLSS. Anyways, never trust the manufacturer’s claims, we’ll see what this triple slot 4060 competitor can do when it gets in the hands of independent reviewers.

That’s using a 3 slot cooler just to hit the performance of a GPU that was already underpowered on release. China doesn’t exactly have a clean record either.

In the West, we might focus on preventing people from harming others or hacking, and in China, they’re preventing people from getting politically supportive of China. But in a way, we are all “exporting” our propaganda.

I don’t think anyone can say with a straight face that these 2 cases are both propaganda. So called “western ptopaganda” here is really just advising the user that maybe self harm, etc. is not such a good idea. It’s not explicitly telling the user completely unverifiable false facts.

It’s okay if their pastors touch little boys though! /s

Not to mention that Japan tends to use their own local services usually so I’m not sure if speedtest.net is even well known there.
