No, I don’t watch ads?

I always say that if leftists could ever learn the lesson “perfect is the enemy of good” then we could actually radically change the world.

I mean yes, you’re welcome to visit my home unless you’re a hateful piece of shit.

You’re welcome to visit the bar unless you come in acting like a belligerent asshole.

You’re implying some contradiction as if this isn’t how this has always worked.

A welcoming person does not welcome Nazis into a space where people are welcome.

This is the future - independent creator channels and collectives. In truth we consumers might end up paying slightly more, but vastly more of what’s collected will go into the hands of the actual creators and creatives than to a bunch of suits who do nothing.

I don’t double-pay. Until Google comes out saying that Premium halts not just ads but also data harvesting, I’m not interested. I’m already paying Google in data.

Why pay for streaming sites that still give you ads like amazon or peacock

I don’t? Anyone who pays for a service to show them ads is a rube?

I would actually consider paying for a service like Youtube if it truly was as simple as that, but it isn’t. Even if they aren’t showing ads after your buy premium, they are still collecting, training on, and selling your data and habits. This is payment. I don’t believe in double-dipping; if I’m already paying in my data, then I’m not going to give you money or watch your ads.

If you want to show ads without harvesting data or offer a way to pay monetarily that stops ads and data harvesting, then I’ll watch ads or buy. But I absolutely do no accept double-dipping. If I’m already paying, I’m not paying again.

So a chickenshit conservative

Ah yes, and the rest of all are all angry loners who hate friendship, very astute assessment

I didn’t suggest Republican, I suggested conservative. Having different opinions isn’t dangerous, but some opinions are dangerous, so maybe don’t believe hateful dehumanizing things or be comfortable with those who do and suddenly you’ll find people more accepting.

And I’m 400 years old and the King of Wales, professionally, since you seem to think either of those factors have some bearing on my opinion.

I’m sure that’s what will happen because that’s what always happens. The left makes a cool space and conservatives slime their way in and ruin it. I don’t give a fuck if you call me an extremist, I want you and yours to feel unwelcome.

How else to you reconcile being on the same side as all the bigots? You are clearly comfortable with them

They’re not all shitty and bigoted, but they are all comfortable with shittiness and bigotry, and that’s functionally the same thing

I said it before:

I do not want conservatives prohibited from joining Lemmy, but I do want conservatives to feel unwelcome joining Lemmy.

Not dominance through authority, but through culture.

Maybe I’m the one out of my depth, but my understanding is that the objection is not to DLSS overall, but the specific implementation of DLSS 5 and it’s AI-driven focus. I am not claiming nobody is asking for DLSS, I’m claiming nobody is asking for the AI-driven focus of the upcoming iteration.

Because, going back to the original metaphor, nobody asked for cinnamon in the first place, so any amount wasted on it is stupid.

But this specific iteration of DLSS is deeply wrapped up in the AI hype machine which is directly related to the datacenter buildout. The reason 5 has been a hot button topic centers around that AI upscaling showcase which only exists because NVidia is deeply invested in AI. This is what I mean that nothing in is a vacuum.

Nothing exists in a vacuum; those impacts are real even if indirect.

Astute, I think you’re right.

Because the cost of having that option has somehow both made the steak more expensive and the equipment to cook it more scarce.

Load-bearing if there, but yeah that’s a good point, thank you.
