Twitch is hardly a profit center, streaming isn't where you'd go to boost profits.

Ah okay yeah I can see that reading. I think Premium has been growing well, so hopefully that'll change in the future!

YouTube premium is pretty reasonably priced if you consume a lot of content on there. I probably consume a minimum of 12 hours every week not including music, so I feel I'm paying a fair price.

Premium more than covers costs, with a reasonable profit margin included. That's what it really costs to host and serve that much data.

And part 3 of the definition is basically useless as it just defines it as the same language again!

Can you expand on why you'd want to autoplay full screen videos? I'm not sure I'm understanding you correctly, or if I am then I'm not understanding why that's desirable?

Hopefully you had the time to write out a detailed reply? ;)

Hi all! Couple of decades in IT, from helpdesk up to both Senior Consultant as well as IT Director. I really enjoy both the technical aspects of the job as well as developing junior employees and have wandered back and forth between both types of roles.

I read once a long time ago (Might have been one of Tay's threads?) that operational excellence was 90% of security, and really took that to heart. My clients and employers have generally been SMBs, so real security wins have often been stuff like "Hey what if the computers had passwords on them?" or "We're no longer keeping everyone's passwords in a big Excel sheet", but over time those have added to to some decent defense. I'm always looking to grow beyond the basics, and hope that this community can be part of that journey!

I mean, there are very different flavors of communist, so it kind of makes sense. You can believe in communal ownership of all non-personal property without supporting the violent oppression of dissent.

Okay but none of that is relevant to the question of "Are computers in their current condition better drivers than humans?". No one here thinks that Elon is cool or good, I haven't seen a single fanboy comment so far. But that doesn't change the hard facts about the things that a couple of his companies (who have hired a lot of very good engineers) have accomplished. Pretending that Tesla and SpaceX have zero accomplishments or benefits does not enhance your arguments against their boss, it detracts from them by discrediting you. There are plenty of legitimate criticisms to make, many of them absolutely damning, there's no need to falsify anything to condemn them.

Oh gods no, that's one of the only companies who would make an even more toxic mess of a platform. I'll stick with the fediverse, thanks.
