Pretty sure AI will start telling us "You should not believe everything you see on the internet as told by Abraham Lincoln"
What are some projects which have "source available"? Can someone get the source and upload or will it violate some NDA? And what kind of licence is associated with this?
- Better interface than Windows Media player
- 100s of cool and edgy skins
- Nice looking graphic equalizer
- Nice music visualizer
- Easy to make playlists
- Tiny looking player which gelled with the early-mid 2000s vibe
And most importantly, it really whips the Llama's ass. TBH, there aren't a lot of serious reasons. It was just slightly better than the default music player. I personally feel the skins played a significant part.
I'mma play Minecraft then. Build a house.
This write-up can be the next KRAZAM skit
- Mantis shrimps are incredibly strong
- Girl asks the shrimp if it could help her in boxing
- Shrimp controls girl like the rat controls the boy in Ratatouille
- Shrimp-controlled-girl obliterates and possibly kills her opponent
- Girl contemplates whether it was a good idea or not
Okay. Replace core features as extensions. Kind of like the suckless philosophy.
While it's a good idea, I think extensions are purposefully made weaker, that is, they don't/can't have the same capabilities of core features. It will require a huge rework which I just don't see happening.
If they do that, normies will start yelling that Firefox has removed their beloved features and will immediately download Chrome. I have a strong suspicion that a majority of people don't use extensions at all.
Explanation: Mantis shrimps have the most powerful punches in nature with respect to their body size. It can probably break human bones.
I understand your point but there is a huge difference between the 2 products.
Right now, we are basically asking AI pin companies "Why can't this be an app?" And they are giving us vague dodgy corporate answers. Magic leap is a fundamentally different product from a standard smartphone. It failed because the hardware wasn't there yet even though there was a lot of interest.
In 2023, even with a company like Apple, Apple Vision is seeing slow adoption rates of the product. Why? Bulky + power hungry + expensive, similar issues from back then, albeit to a lesser degree. Till the technology becomes accessible, it will remain as a niche. It has the potential to change a lot of things in healthcare and manufacturing but it still has a long way to go.
The metaverse is also suffering from a similar problem. What can the metaverse do that 2nd Life/Minecraft can't do? It needs be better than the existing solutions while still having a low barrier to entry price-wise. Do note I'm completely skipping the fact that it's being heavily pushed by a privacy nightmare of a company.
I can't even remember the last time when some hot new technology changed our lives significantly. I'm inclined to say Android because it was a new mobile OS and now it's everywhere and various devices but even that is more than a decade old.
Microsoft: How about $16b?
Gaben: The best I can do is a couple thousand skins and crates
