at least the first time it appears, it also shows you a "disable hotkey" option. So it's a one time thing. Better than copilot clippy & chrome gemini being in your face

> In my neighborhood, every house has a garage. I would say, 1/3 of these garages are filled with junk or exercise equipment and the cars are parked outside.

oh no , an extra room in your house is to put to use, other than storing a car that already can be stored outside.

RSS is also my main reader, that how I clicked through to this headline & article. It just such an convenient way to stay on top of things for subjects you are interested in. After google reader offline, swapped around a few services, ended up on inoreader which in free mode even, has all the features I was looking for.

there is nothing legitimate about a scraper that visits a site, scrapes the contents and uses it at their end.

> Europe doesn't have AC?

of course it does. there is no resistance. this title is BS

kind of cute that you think that people in EU are not by default voting for christian and social related political parties.... and that the whole reason for laws is to keep capitalism in check.

> Alternately you could vote for politicians who will regulate the market in way that would, for example, force companies to pay back money if they shut down what your paid for prematurely. Or take away other rights of use from licensed products. capitalism *could* get regulated any way we want, one just has to do it. But if you think the invisible hand of the market will know best, dont embarrass yourself by signing petitions against what the invisible hand just decided for you.

how to tell you're brainwashed by capitalism...

I don't think he will be able to... for US at least: https://www.thetruthaboutcars....


there is a waranty related clause:
The only federal requirement is under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which applies only during the warranty period. This law requires that if a manufacturer provides a warranty, they must have parts available to fulfill warranty obligations, but this typically only covers 3-4 years for most vehicles.

> let the free market be free, let capitalism do its thing


> why are we forced to work 80 hrs, being replaced by robots, replaced by LLM, why are we not even getting minimum living wage


ah yes; let the market be completely uncontrolled create large monopolies. you example should be corrected:

a huge wine shop with shops all over the world, would be forced to allow others to also sell their wine.

oh no let wallmart do its thing all over the world, and then get a job as "greeter"

awesome!

> People use AI to answer questions. So if your site answers questions, you should hide it behind a login at the very least, so AI can't scoop it up. If you don't, sorry, that's on you.

yes that's how the internet works. Put all your content behind login walls. That will drive traffic up from incoming sources...
nope.

> The switch 2 is a problem for both Microsoft and Sony because it's dangerously good enough

good enough at what?

if I want a portable console for ~€500, Steam Deck is the go to option, with a truckload of cheap and free games available, homebrew, etc

if I want pick up and play installed next to TV where I will be spending money on games, €499 for a PS5, €120/year and you have 500+ game titles


I don't see how Switch is option for any of these scenarios, unless money is not of concern, parental control is not important, and you're willing to spend €80 per game title.

ah yes... worry

Sony should wake up, allow blanket slate keyboard & mouse support for all titles (create mp lobbies for mixed/separate pools) and you have a powerful game PC that is best in class price/performance....

but yes, let us worry

the only way this can generate any revenue is to put all your content behind "offerwalls" for any and all indexing robots
all human visitors get free access, but any traffic coming from LLMs and search indexes need to pay to access your content, since they will not send you any traffic, just using up your bandwidth and server resources, without giving anything in return

> Sites with real content will be fine.

no... they won't. In fact those will hurt the most, as their content is slurped up by indexing bots and their content is being served by LLMs, with zero visitors coming to their site

all these sold xxx units should be put against population and growth.
otherwise this is just very much a "duh" article, so wait more people with access to disposable income and increased world population equals more products sold?
wuk?


duh
