It's a chicken and egg issue for sure, but I think you've got the wrong egg.

Nobody will create content on a platform with few viewers. Nobody will be a viewer on a platform with few content creators.

Yes. But it used to be free to watch remotely. It's 99% your own hardware doing everything. Their services get used for discovery, not as proxies for the connection itself, AFAIK.

You already had to pay them to allow transcoding with your own GPU, etc.

Right now it's still not too bad, but just watch, enshittification will affect paid users too. For one, I expect the lifetime pass to go away, and go away retroactively eventually.

One of the top tech companies in my country mandated a return to office because the boss couldn't stand that people were working from Bali instead of chatting with him at the office coffee machines in the cold Estonian winter.

Friend who works there says it's up to the team leads and few want to enforce it and risk losing people. But the CEO got his article in the newspapers saying software engineers are all lazy entitled pieces of shit, which was his real goal. He hates paying people, but the company only gets top talent because of their salaries. Nobody goes there for "innovation" anymore now that it's an established company.

Don't worry, a court already ruled that courts can't overrule Trump's decisions. It was regarding the whole national guard thing, but it'll be the same here.

Looks like someone left their debug code in.

I thought the Concorde stopped flying because of the operating costs and environmental impact. It didn't have comparable competition as such.

Oh wait this is a games community. What's Concord? Maybe it would've done better if I'd heard of it BEFORE it shut down. Or if they didn't take 8 years to make what sounds like yet another Overwatch copycat?

Trump holds the opinion that exercise depletes your body of its' useful resource (which to him is like a set amount you're born with). So the more you exercise, the faster you die.

I'm not kidding, he said that somewhere.

this is also a setting on both Android and iOS, with Android displaying the option to change access pretty much every time you pick out a file.

For photos at the very least, it's the same on iOS. Haven't tested with files. But anytime I needed to send people photos over FB Messenger, I'd add access to that one specific photo and nothing more. Until I got tired of it and added all photos. Oh well.

Where I come from, nowhere near China, it's pretty common to see old men shirtless in their gardens. Hell, my neighbor pretty much just hanged around in his undies all day every day from May to September lmao

Technically now he's a great-grandfather.
