I imagine they'll eventually find a way to prevent us from blocking ads. Twitch TV for example has found some ways to make adblock useless.

It's a shame, and it's really just a side effect of google racing to the bottom of the adspace game. If ads weren't as cheap as they are today, they wouldn't be trying to maximize the amount of users who are forced to see advertisements.

You might have to do the pen and paper method.

I agree. It's a mistake for Valve to reduce platform support as it becomes a justification for dropping other platforms for other developers as well.

I know that MacOS is a bit of a pain to support right now with how steam and third party applications are treated, but it would be a bigger issue for Apple to drop support if Valve maintained a strong presence on the platform via steam. With the way things are now, Apple might rip the bandaid off and just remove the ability to have third party stores on their computers. This is already what they do with Iphones/Ipads

But AI is industrial plagiarism. There's a big difference in the legality of using AI vs using publically licensed materials.

This is good to know and I'm glad to hear.

As an aside, do we have a system for OP to pin this comment to the top? This context is pretty important.

There's some irony to every tech company modeling their pipeline off Toyota's Kanban system...

Only for Toyota to completely fuck up their tech by running out of disk space for their system to exist on. Looks like someone should have put "Buy more hard drives" to the board.

Companies need to stop ignoring copyright on data they don't own and never have owned.
