I hate that websites will purposely block a perfectly working website feature if it sees you're on a mobile just to refer you to their mobile app.

They put a woman in prison over this and she didn't even intend to illegally vote.

Valve runs its massive PC gaming ecosystem with only about 350 employees
Steam is successful because they're the only company in that market treating customers right.
I'd be very upset if the courts side with EA.

That's in game.load_dlc() we opted not to include that until our game is already beloved on steam.

Why are you using discord to compare and not literally any other app on the computer that actually has working scaling?

Stack Overflow bans users en masse for rebelling against OpenAI partnership — users banned for deleting answers to prevent them being used to train ChatGPT
Rather than delete, modify the question so its wrong. Then the ai will hallucinate.

Driving i35, getting to i35, its all parking lots and shopping malls.
It looks like a giant oversized strip mall.
Within city walls it's beautiful. But since Texas is so car dependent most of what you see are strip malls, giant bridges, and poor road design.

Easy solution. Update the web-scraper they use to include an LLM. Then its for "training"

I disagree. I bought a game for all the features it had at the time of buying it. There is no avenue for a consumer to push back against publishers changing that

Here's an example I can see happening.
Threads will want to implement post reactions to maintain parity with Facebook. Threads expands the ActivityPub spec to include reactions.
Now, every other instance will not be compatible with reactions. Users complain they cannot see reactions.
Admins have two choices now:
Refuse to implement reactions because they are not part of the spec. Users leave and join threads.
ActivityPub adds reactions to the standard, all instances must now support reactions. Meta has now started dictating the spec.
I feel the XMP fears do have some sentiment, and it's really a matter of how the broad username interprets these issues (including the Thread users which would be family and friends).

It is arguably the best way to name large sets of indexed files on a filesystem.
