A good example of this scam that sticks out to me is plastics recycling. The marketed goal is a circular, sustainableTM plastic economy. The real goals are uninterrupted plastics manufacturing and the maintenance of tax receipts from plastic goods consumption. Industry and government simply do not want less plastic in the world.
Is it really misuse if the mechanism was designed to be misused?
I haven’t logged in for nearly three years. Has TI been overhauled again?
Characters like him are targeted because they are both successful and anti establishment
This is the cringest thing I’ve seen all month outside Hexbear.
Not silly at all. It’s a ship of Theseus situation, and the ship has helmsmen with bad attitudes. Bad attitudes engender bad decisionmaking.

Articles like this come off as glib. Aviation is a dreadful industry for all involved.
I don’t understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.
The risk equation makes sense. The potential gain from outlasting your competition and absorbing their subscriber bases to become a near-monopoly is higher than participating in a royalty scheme, and the downside is borne by shareholders and to a lesser extent creditors (the Other People’s Money principle).
All problems are user’s own. Yes enshittification sucks. You’re free to disconnect as much as you can.
Wrong attitude. Only atomization and further exploitation lies that way. The solution is to get vocal and demand higher standards.
Always cut out the intermediaries.

Users: Do you realize what Windows is subjecting us to? MS board of directors: Windows? We don’t even use PCs
I remember omitting a hardware decoding line from mpv.conf. But I’m still getting the issue occasionally (even though playback in most cases now is fine).
These breach incidents all serve to highlight the lack of a solution for patients that want to retain ownership (ie. exclusive control) over their data. Currently the only effective way to do that is a non-solution - by not interacting with the service at all.
Imagine there was one copy of your health information, and it was encrypted, and it lived on a server/flash drive/device under your control. In order to receive treatment, the provider has to access that source and request your permission or authenticate in some capacity. That would be an enduring, user-respecting solution that showed people that each loss of data was more than merely a publicity nightmare for the abetting company. Managing personal healthcare like this isn’t for everyone, but it should be an option for patients with the means and inclination.
The fact that service providers neither want to co-operate with something like this, nor are required to by law, is a problem. There’s currently no individual agency permitted whatsoever in this domain and I’ve been fed up with it for a long time.
The only axis the corporate world cares about is (quite literally) skin deep.
So get this: I tested a live USB, and initially any video playback caused the crash, then 4k video in VLC played fine, including manual seek, but 1080p material first killed screen output then triggered the reboot. Fucking nuts. Too much window resizing also triggered it. But it gets weirder. After half a dozen restarts and auto-checkdisks, I currently haven’t encountered the bug at all on my main partition.
YT will likely attempt to play creators and viewers off one another. Similar to how hospitality does so with patrons and staff re: tips. You could see a FUD campaign aimed at anyone republishing their work on competitor sites.
