It wasn’t an accident though? It’s a large transit van that doesn’t have a driver

Hackers like to glitch other users. Randomly turn into a toilet, have all of your ammunition disappear, suddenly fly into the air and die on impact. It made public servers unplayable. Friends only sessions were necessary

This is interesting. It seems a fair resolution would be to pay the content owner what they would have made in ad revenue.

As long as the AI is not reproducing original works to the extent that it violates fair use, I don’t think copyright laws really apply. But there’s definitely lost revenue.

While I am generally in the “copyright doesn’t matter when it comes to AI” camp, I also work in advertising. Most people do not use ad blockers.

This is an interesting point that I haven’t previously considered.

Yeah who is Elon? I’ve never heard of him or SpaceX or Tesla. I guess this Musk guy will die in obscurity. Too bad he didn’t publish a paper.

Ah, Zicam. I’ll never understand how shit like that is allowed to make claims

The cost is too high? Seriously?

You’re not paying anything for the service. You have no concept of what their costs are. You’re mildly inconvenienced by some annoying and slightly obtrusive ads.

It’s a business, not a charity. And they owe you nothing.

Sponsored search placements haven’t really changed. Most ads are run through AdWords which are found across the web and on mobile apps. Even this post is about ads run within videos. Thus unrelated to search.

And touch screens were in devices other than smart phones before smart phones came along.

So again, father of the touchscreen, sure. But he did not make smartphones happen. He has nothing to do with 99% of the technology in smartphones.

Yeah, completely agree. But this is also Lemmy. The majority of users are either a communist or almost a communist. And usually have a pretty bad understanding of what that even entails. Generally they just want everything to be free or paid for by someone else.

Who do you expect to pay for it?

Always was. How tf do you think they make money

So many people in this comment section are pissed that YouTube isn’t both free and ad-free. It’s mind blowing.

Yes, YouTube is a business and exists to generate revenue.

How about father of the touch screen? There’s a fuck ton of technology in smartphones.

It’s definitely written by someone who’s never used a VR headset. It only takes a second to realize that these screens are nowhere near the resolution of your eye. Ya know, cause small text that would be easily read on my phone is blurry as fuck on a VR headset

Wow didn’t see that the first time

I am very well aware of the automated pricing tools in Amazon. The accounts under my management will do over $3.5 million in sales this month. I will also manage almost $1 million in ad spend. I may be the only person in this comment section with a qualified opinion.

These tools cannot adjust price based on customer data. They can adjust pricing based on competitor prices, and based on how many units you are currently selling. That is all.

An engine increasing in size by 1 liter does not make the vehicle itself larger. These vehicles exist, that is not changing. Manufacturers are working to make these engines more efficient.

The ability to win the buy box is exceptionally predictable.

It is based on a combination of factors. The price point, fulfillment method, shipping cost, and feedback provided by customers about each individual seller.

If I am the brand owner, using Fulfillment by Amazon, have the lowest price, and good seller feedback, I will win.

If you come on the listing a lower price, no shipping cost, and equivalent feedback, but you are shipping the item yourself and have a slightly lower feedback rating, you will not win the buy box.

The system is not rigged against the customer. Amazon is attempting to improve the customer experience, with price just being part of it

Prices do not vary based on estimated income. Pricing control is not that granular.
