> Unless you're a virologist, and you're posting your newly peer-reviewed, published (in a reputable journal) clinical trial that shows otherwise... shut up.

Or if you're a lay person who is sharing a newly peer-reviewed, published (in a reputable journal) clinical trial that shows otherwise.

Realistically, lay people should probably not make claims either way about the thing because even attempting to summarize a reputable and peer-reviewed study has pitfalls, if you don't know what you're talking about. Like GP.

Post a link to the thing and let your social media followers read it for themselves.

I'm starting to think I'm the only person on the planet who never had this problem... Lucky me!

LOL I'm glad someone else recognizes this. I always look for cases without that hole, and sometimes they're hard to find.

Unfortunately for many of these folks, it's a cargo cult mentality.

I was immediately and severely butthurt for a brief period of time. ;)

They did this with Apple Music and Apple TV+.

FPS is one of those things where you don't really get it until you try it. Once I upgraded to a 165Hz monitor and get 150+ fps in most games... when I play at 60, it's definitely noticeable. Before I could do that, 60fps felt smooth as butter.

Definitely a first-world problem!

My 2070 Super supports DLSS.

> Agreed, and are you arguing that Google hasn't been anti-competitive?

No. I don't actually know the answer to this, perhaps because of my general disgust at Google's (lack of) privacy practices, I tend to ignore them and stories about them.

No.

Funny, I just learned that systemd-resolved exists today when I was trying to track something down. I guess it's fine but I don't really understand what problem it was trying to solve.

> competing with them is not easy

Is competition supposed to be easy?

> If, on top of that, the bloated corporate whale goes around mounting hostile takeovers of competitors before they get too big

Did Google do this?

Look, I can't say I'm a big fan of Google and I try to avoid them wherever I can, but I don't know that they're a monopoly.

Simply being a monopoly isn't illegal (at least not in the US). It's only when said monopoly harms competition with behavior that is specifically anti-competitive.

On the other hand, I think Amazon is a different story. They own the strip mall and the largest store inside it, but they also have detailed data on every other store - what consumers are buying, how much they're paying, etc. I would be extremely unsurprised if Amazon isn't using that data to crush competition.

I really wish I had mod points for you, I laughed way too hard at this.

In my state, yes. It's allowed because the elected legislature at some point passed a law that allows it (referring specifically to health orders for things like COVID).

Do I agree with it? I don't know yet, we're still testing the theory ;) I'll review the numbers and decide later.

I think it's hilarious (and kind of sad) that you got modded down as a troll, and the guy who incorrectly accused you of not knowing the difference got modded up.
