Ein bis zwei mal am Tag ist die optimale Scheißepfostenfrequenz. Muss man wissen.

Big tech made us lonely and now they want to sell us the cure?

This goes out to anyone still thinking there are some good people among the very rich. They‘re all robbers and thieves without a conscience.

Smart TV having absolutely horrible default settings and filters that ruin any viewing experience has little to do with HDR because the TV isn‘t even processing HDR images most of the time. That stuff is already mixed and there‘s not much any device can do to give you details in the darks and brights back. It‘s a much different story when you‘re actually processing real color information like in a video game. HDR should absolutely help you see in the dark here.

Have you ever been the person who was kind enough to return a lost wallet? Have you also ever been the person who was accused by the person you returned it to of stealing a bunch of things (like cash) out of the wallet?

You’re saying something. I’ve heard first hand stories about angry wallet owners “shooting the messanger” so to speak. I’m from Germany but the saying “No good deed goes unpunished” rings true in most parts of the world, I think. That’s why you throw a lost wallet into the next letter box and don’t bother any further. At least that’s what you’re supposed to do where I’m from and I doubt any of those wallets ever arrived with their full content but that’s not my problem.

Because there’s always a bigger fish out there to get you. Or that’s what trillionaires will tell themselves when they wage a robotic war. This system isn’t made to last the way it’s progressing right now.

With all the touch screens and computer controlled door handles I wouldn‘t bet on a Tesla in this showdown.

Es ist Textbuch Whataboutism, weil es im Text nicht um die USA geht und jedes Argument sowieso mehr zu China passt als zu den Staaten. Hier tun die Leute wirklich so, als ob China keine Rassensäuberung im großen Stil und mehreren Fronten durchzieht. Tankies müssen echt mal auf die Realität klarkommen:

Tust du jetzt so als ob es in China nicht ne Millionen gefangene in Lagern gibt, oder wie? Bizarre Sichtweise auf so eine Nachricht.

Die kanadische Seite solle aufhören, sich in die juristische Souveränität Chinas einzumischen, so die Sprecherin.

Du zuerst, China.

Du glaubst, Japan und USA richten mehrere tausend Menschen im Jahr hin oder woher rührt der whataboutism?

It‘s a bad bet because he is so insanely rich and powerful. Just take a look at Putin‘s Gasprom. Oligarchs know how to extract money out of a company before lesser oligarchs can get their hands on it. Avoid any stocks that are too close to the government right now.

AI won‘t be our downfall but technological illiteracy might.

Zu viele reißerische Titel und sinnentleerte Artikel über die Jahre. Es hat mich einfach immer wieder geärgert, dass entweder nichts gesagt oder vom Verfasser selbst verstanden wurde. Das ist mMn. einfach kein Qualitätsjournalismus. Zudem kann man aggressive Werbetracker nicht abwählen. Ist mir auch egal, dass das heute die meisten News-Portale so machen. Ich kann herzlich darauf verzichten.

Ich mag Heise einfach nicht.

I don‘t know about that. That Oculus founder seems worse than Suckerberg somehow.

However I still think that somehow Facebook‘s dominance bottlenecks the VR industry right now. Their little data extractors are ironically too cheap for a healthy and vibrant VR economy, keeping competition and ideas out that the industry needs so desperately.

Good. Let them drown with their sinking ship. They enabled his power grab in the first place and decided something as perverted and absurd as granting a single man $60 billion. Let this be a lesson in history books.

And the tragedy of the whole situation is that they can‘t win because if every worker is replaced by an algorithm or a robot then who‘s going to buy your products? Nobody has money because nobody has a job. And so the economy will shift to producing war machines that fight each other for territory to build more war machine factories until you can’t expand anymore for one reason or another. Then the entire system will collapse like the Roman Empire and we start from scratch.

Loved those games and the sets even though the latter came with a few huge pieces and empty spaces. That certainly didn’t sit well with everyone.

Unironisch nö. Die sollen sich schön an den Verhandlungstisch mit der ganzen EU setzen und das wie Erwachsene verhandeln und nicht immer so durch die Hintertür. Das hat die saure Orange in seiner letzten Legislatur auch immer versucht, um die EU auch ja nicht ernst nehmen zu müssen. Aber so nicht.
