I already have one, much simpler to play Nintendo exclusives on their own console.

Should I buy one ASAP in the hope that it will be hacked soon so I’ll be sure to have the version most likely compatible with the hacking method, that is the question 🤔

Quebec, south shore of the St Lawrence, across the bridge from Montreal!

Around here they build shopping malls over the most fertile land we have access to instead of using it to grow food for the millions of people living right next to it…

15% productivity increase going from 2 days in office to 5 days remote across a department with hundreds of employees.

What more do they need??? Companies would spend millions for that kind of increase in productivity but they wouldn’t accept to save money by switching to fully remote!

Source?

People aren’t satisfied with only their basic needs met though.

You’re right, torture doesn’t work

Dude, you’re the one saying it’s ok to replace paid artists with AI, you’re the one saying it’s able to do their job, you’re the one saying that it can take people’s job, you just don’t feel concerned because you can’t imagine you’ll be the one being affected, you’re the one sounding like a Trumpist “It’s ok, it will only affect others and they’re the people who I believe done deserve to make a living off their work!”

I’m done, this is idiotic.

Is nudity part of an amendment? I think not!

Again, until your boss feels he doesn’t need you and can just rely on good enough shit regurgitated by AI.

You’ll keep saying that until you end up jobless because a computer can accomplish your tasks in a good enough way, not as well as you, just well enough, then because it suddenly affects you you’ll be angry about it.

It is relevant, free development/services is nice and all, but when you’re spending all your time doing it at some point you still need to eat and that requires money so what do you do? You either give up on the free stuff or reduce the amount of time you spend doing it so you can find a job meaning you lose practice and aren’t at good at it.

I’m sorry to tell you but the people who are the best at what they do don’t do it for free, the reason they’re the best is that they can afford to do it full time because they make a living off it.

And that’s the problem right there

“The best art is the one created by people who get no recognition for it”

Do you also believe the best houses are built by people who have no training in how to build them?

“Stop paying artists and people will keep creating”

They will, they won’t be able to spend the time required to become masters at it unless they’re already rich enough not to have to spend time working. It’s also the same thing here, let’s stop paying plumbers, people who like doing plumbing will just continue doing it. Let’s stop paying garbage people, someone will keep doing it because they like it… Oh wait, no they won’t.

People deserve a form of compensation for their work if we want to live in functioning societies. If we go back to living in small tribes then sure, people will just do what they must without compensation because it’s required to survive, but then human population would be in the millions instead of billions and we wouldn’t be here to talk about it because the technology wouldn’t exist anymore.

Bull fucking shit, you know as well as I do that your point doesn’t make sense.

So the best books are the ones that never get published? The Best music is free on Soundcloud? The best movies are freely available on Peertube?

Your realize that in order to achieve greatness in a field it takes time, if artists can’t live from their art because anyone is free to just make copy of it and to sell it and keep the profit to themselves then instead of making art they’ll have to find another job instead.

You might believe that AI will replace them, but AI doesn’t understand what it’s doing it just regurgitates stuff until the person asking for it finds it good enough. It lacks the will to generate emotions in the viewer or listener.

Scale Lemmy to the size of Reddit and we’ll see if good Samaritans are still willing to host it for free.

Well, that’s one take I guess… Not a good one, but one none the less…

I said without, I wouldn’t believe they got his approval…
