If you want to blame groups for a Biden loss then blame all those 2020 moderate Trump voters who still are sticking with Trump. Biden knifed many of his constituent groups in his shift to the right. And the polls in swing states are still as bad as they’ve ever been for Biden.

Imagine a gradient bar of red, green, or blue on a display. The latest displays show so many colors that the 256 shades in an 8-bits channel will show banding.

Banding is horrible for photo/video editing hence 10 bit displays that can show 1024 shades in a single channel which is more shades than our eyes can see.

HDR in gaming also uses 10-bit per channel, but it’s often a gimmick with current cheap gaming displays and might show banding even if there are technically 10-bits. OLED gaming monitors should be able to display 10-bit accurately though.

Tax payers aren’t the customers. Intuit is the customer here and they are buying income streams from politicians. It’s an artificial and unnecessary system.

I heard from a bigger streamer. But I started believing it because feeds degrade lot more than YT. I constantly get connection issues more than any other streaming site.

I’m vested in some of these smaller streamers, so I don’t want them to lose their income. It feels like twitch is exploiting this sentiment because I’m not alone.

Twitch is run like a private equity acquisition. The rates they are forced to pay their parent company, Amazon, are above market value. Twitch’s services will get worse and worse for both streamers and viewers until all the equity is sucked dry. Late stage capitalism y’all.

The LinkedIn employees on Blind (an anonymous social media site for tech workers) are beyond pissed, no justification for this beyond greed.

Yep vines, never paid attention to them until this happened.

Are they all fake or something?

I bought an 4.7 rated amplifier on Amazon that broke the first day. Looking at the reviews closer, I noticed they were 100% paid reviewers.

When I tried to leave a negative review, Amazon stopped me, giving a generic message about fake reviews on this product. This product is still out their with a high rating and no way for actual purchasers like me to warn other customers.

Seriously bro, I live in a red state and I can’t ever remember a single conservative defend Amazon’s right to act like a monopoly.

I thought everyone agreed, the company is total shit after 2020. Do you own their stock still or are employed by them?

Because demand based prices is manipulative bullshit from corporations.

In Oklahoma during that 2021 winter storm, demand based pricing charged power companies billions for natural gas, this in turn caused rolling blackouts until Oklahoma disconnected from the Texas. The charges were over 100x the normal rate, consumers are still playing for that winter storm with an extra surcharge which I’m guessing will stay there for a long as time.

Mind you this was caused by Texas based energy companies cheaping out when they deployed their infrastructure. And these same companies either get bailed out by the people or get windfall profits for fucking up. There is no justification for this type of pricing model.

Fuck these judges rigging the system in favor of monopolies.

That google judge was very concerned disclosing earnings would reveal company secrets so they allowed google to hide them in the trial. But they are publicly traded and required to disclose earnings…

I think you get me wrong. I don’t feel sorry for Michael Vick. I just think this is more proof how money infects our regulatory system.

Look at food regulation. I’ve seen regulators shut down and jail independent operations for white glove violations. But look how major suppliers and food chains are treated when their contaminated food sends people to the hospital where some die.

What are you trying to say, law enforcement would take down Elon’s lab if only there were laws against animal abuse?

This would be bad if lemmy had a board trying to push an IPO.

The government convicted Michael Vick after they found out what happened to his dogs. Same government turning a blind eye to Elon’s monkeys and giving him a green light to experiment on humans. Elon playing through capitalism in god mode RN.

But language is how they lie to us and make it seem things are fair. In reality capitalism means all the trillions minted each year by our federal reserve flows to industries and not the people.

Look at it this way, if the federal reserve cutoff loans to banks who service the auto dealerships, the auto industry would collapse. The biggest industries would be severely hurt if not bankrupt without their connection to government and the federal reserve.

Why can’t people get that for direct access to federal reserve minting to start their own business, pay for their education, or buy a home? They can’t because people are the cattle that capitalists need to exploit.

These fucking red pilled incels. Yeah, they can overrun any comment section, but get them in the real world and they scurry back to the shadows roaches.
