As other people mentioned, this is a dumb take.
But also - the guy had some cringe moments. And he hasn’t had other insane smash successes like the many he was part of in the 90s. That’d be incredibly tough.
But he seems like a genuinely good dude and was absolutely a pioneer. People are still interviewing him for a reason. And not because he’s trying to relive his glory days.
Here too. You dared to post correct info that appeared to go against the groupthink. And even though you’re agreeing what they did was stupid (which it is), it isn’t enough; you’re now part of the “other” tribe.
I like how you were downvoted so heavily for posting correct information because there was a hint you weren’t shitting on Tesla hard enough.
As discussed in the article, even.
One thing about Musk, I think he does care more about making a thing. Money is involved; but mostly because it’s necessary to make the thing.
It’s just that the things he wants to make are increasingly stupid and childish.
This is the highest possible praise for something good happening on Lemmy, apparently.
“<Good thing happens>”
“What the fuck took so long.”
Once the second thing happens, assuming it’s any good, then I will look into switching again.
Until then, there don’t seem to be many great options.
This post has a photo in the summary. Is your client (if any) not displaying it, maybe?
Why would that be frustrating? That’s explicitly what they’re for. And we’re better off for it.
Which is why I said
If the Home Assistant voice Appliance stuff can get its shit together and I can get one for reasonable prices I will move to that (or something like it) instead.
Unfortunately, when I looked most recently it still wasn’t even remotely close to being ready. Particularly the hardware options.
You mean, the stunt that they describe in detail in the article?
Sounds like a really good opportunity for competitors to sweep in and start attacking
With the things you tried it did.
Believe me, I was part of a team testing compatibility.
I’m not sure I misunderstood you at all.
Copy left, incieldentally, is a form of copyright.
100%.
The whole point was to “promote the useful arts” by allowing creators SOME time to make money off their work. People would be way less likely to write a book, a news artucle, make a movie, etc if someone else could just instantly sell copies and you couldn’t support yourself with the work.
But the whole point was to give you enough protections to make it worth your while.
If you can’t make enough money off of the work in 14 (or 28) years for it to have been worth it, then it’s not worth it.
No one has ever said “if this isn’t going to give me the exclusive right to make copies for 80 years after my death, then there’s no point making it”. And that was the only point to copyright. Doing the minimum to allow people to realistically make new stuff.
Which is weird, since Win2k definitely had lower hardware compatibility than XP, Vista, 7, etc.
It wasn’t consumer-focused and just didn’t have the driver compatibility from vendors yet.
That’s not true at all.
Boy you would think that, but it is clearly not the case. At least not primarily.
Although it’s definitely more of a factor than his other companies.
