4am@lemmy.zipto Games@lemmy.world•Does anyone else find it suspicious that there wasn't any criticism on here about Stop Killing Games until after it hit 1.4M signatures?English288·17 hours agoI’ve made some comments critical of how relentlessly PirateSoftware is being harassed and how annoying it is and how distracting from the actual movement it is.
Nothing wrong with the petition itself, and I haven’t noticed any negative astroturfing about it.
4am@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why doesn’t Apple/Samsung/Google use new tech like every other phone maker?1·17 hours agoWhy does every rebuttal have to strawman me saying “Apple is perfect and get it right every time”?
I’m offering nothing more than an explanation of how they try to operate. I’m not defending them, or saying they never miss.
4am@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why doesn’t Apple/Samsung/Google use new tech like every other phone maker?1·17 hours agoYeah Apple really dropped the ball in AI. I heard an interesting take that it’s because Apple collected way less used info o er time compared to like Google (which has all the writings of man both pre and post internet, every video ever uploaded, the habits of every human user, and most of the messaging/calendars/contacts for a significant portion of the planet) va Apple who has like, App Store usage for iPhone users, photo libraries since 2009-ish, that kinda thing.
It just wasn’t enough to paint a holistic picture to train a useful model on, and this is why Apple Intelligence was a bigger flop than the Vision Pro.
I think you got wooshed here
The guy in the picture is PirateSoftware, accused of sabotaging the Stop Killing Games initiative in the EU.
This post is part of a coordinated harassment campaign by big angy gamers because bad nerd man say companies won’t listen to their little lib demands to the EU
So instead of regrouping their efforts (which, I might add, they did, and they got their day in parliament) they (started off by) basically trashing this dude until he lost a large portion of his community. Because like they didn’t like how he defended his position. About video games. And now the fucking internet won’t shut up about it even though they got their way again through toxic bullying. And it annoys me. So I shitpost about it wherever I can because I hope it annoys them too.

The general public is not going to pay a subscription (ew another subscription?) they’re just going to use the free services. “I already pay for internet”
There is no reason for anyone to use this, as amazing as it is. That ship sailed long ago and the moment an MBA gets wind of what this’ll mean for the data broker industry, it will be lobbied into illegality, at least here in the US.

The question is: who knew what?

At first, they did not regroup, they just started attacking this guy.
Eventually, they did get their shit together and they HAVE REACHED enough signatures.
So now that they are winning, why does PS matter at all anymore? Why has this annoyance turned into an online crusade that I have to constantly hear about? I do not give a shit about these gripes with this guy, and considering that he was ultimately irrelevant to SKG, I’m not sure why they care so much either
