Lol, would love to hear why on earth this is downvoted - guess we're in full on reddit mode and just downvoting everything that isn't exactly what I think lol
Yeah it was odd to read that description being presented as an oddity - that sounds like most households I know. If you have a wife, kids, or roommate and don't enjoy being holed up in your own room the whole time you play (and those sharing your house don't just want to watch you game all night) then in house streaming is a huge boon.
I PC game, but most of my gaming is done on the couch, streamed onto my phone. I've been very tempted to buy a dedicated streaming device lately to avoid draining my phone battery while playing
As always, people who just hate change in any form - combined with the depressingly common outlook that if you don't personally like something, it must be objectively bad
Except smart phone cameras will also improve - if anything, I'd say that over the last decade, the average smart phone camera has improved at a much faster rate than your average computer monitor.
Combine what I said with all the other Metadata that will be collected, and I'm quite skeptical that you could fool an actual professional with your scheme.
It's just the same attitude as people who claim it's not really reading if you're using an eReader. Some people get weirdly elitist about books and reading
With your current phone, go ahead and take two pictures - one normal, the other a picture of a picture of that thing
Now look at the two, and tell me you can't tell in a split second that one is a picture of a picture. There's a reason that it's a running joke on the internet that people need to learn to take real screenshot instead of taking a picture of the monitor - there's always annoying and obvious artifacts.
I don't even know if I agree with that tbh - I've yet to see anything that actually shows that AI voiceovers can replace human ones. Oh they can make realistic speech, but they can't voice act. A voice actor isn't just a person who reads a script in a monotone, they're an actor.
AI will probably eventually get good enough to understand the context of the dialogue and add the appropriate inflections and such - but nothing today comes even close
. But I doubt anyone would care if you stood up to stretch your legs 30 mins before landing
You'd think, but apparently people are picky enough about what others do to care that they stand up shortly after landing, so who knows
Yeah and while I'm sure it is useful for minimizing outrage at controversial changes, it's mainly to prevent rolling out major bugs to too many people
boarding first isn't a privilege really
It is on southwest, since there's no unassigned boarding. I'm a tall dude, and I always pay for early boarding so I can get myself an emergency row seat
Yeah, remember the reaction when that one post got popular about lemmy being boring for anyone that wasn't a SWE/Linux user?
People got so pissed off, one of the top posts on lemmy that day was something to the affect of "fuck you, we're not obligated to post things you like". Which, yeah, you're not - but you also can't blame people for losing interest in your platform when you only have active discussion on one or two relatively niche topics.
The fact is that Lemmy is garbage for discussing hobbys or interests outside of a few niche areas. On reddit my feed was filled with woodworking, 3d printing, Astronomy, and other topics that get very little traffic on lemmy.
My lemmy feed is mostly politics, then SWE stuff, then memes
Yeah, popular music - by definition - is going to have a broad appeal, and pointing out major problems with our society is always going to be at least a bit divisive, especially when the issue is split in party lines
