Chaotic Entropy

I tried to watch one video from a guy on a specific topic and he opened with an update on his divorce. Coooool.

Anyone who doesn’t want be evil is doing so performatively. Obviously.

Good or bad, sane or nuts, at a certain point you just end up being utterly out of touch with daily reality.

Humans are the ones tooling and retooling these units for specific purposes, which can be done far more efficiently in situ in an underwater habitation. Along with any other human activities that will be occurring, such as immediate study in a dedicated lab facility.

What part of the opening rationale was incomprehensible?

“With current diving at 150 to 200 meters, you can only get 10 minutes of work completed, followed by 6 hours of decompression. With our underwater habitats we’ll be able to do seven years’ worth of work in 30 days with shorter decompression time. More than 90 percent of the ocean’s biodiversity lives within 200 meters’ depth and at the shorelines, and we only know about 20 percent of it.”

Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his chattel property’s brow?

If only they explained their reasoning somewhere… all these headlines are so inconsiderate.

He didn’t become the richest prick in the world by spending his own money.

I’m concerned with switching to a small alternative which then becomes untenable or shutters within a year and then having to piss around again.

They’ve been making deeeeeep cuts in order to make the company “more like a startup”, as per Jack Doresey’s comments.

They laid off 10% of their workforce last year, and like 20% of the remaining work force late this year with cuts to engineering expected. It is not in a healthy place, seemingly, and they cover a very small slither of the market.

Edit: Couldn’t find the exact article I had read before but this one seems well formatted. https://www.headphonesty.com/2024/12/tidal-bets-future-artists-djs/

It doesn’t help that their parent company makes so little from them compared to a series of crypto ventures, but what can really compare to that.

Bandcamp the union busting company that laid off like 75% of its staff over 2023…?

Tidal has decided to sunset it’s app, which means it’s basically on maintenance mode now. Somewhat off putting.

My child self was a bumbling idiot who I would dislike or be indifferent to if I met them. Gradually over the course of decades I have become vaguely competent and capable of not making an idiot of myself daily. I’ll probably feel the same about present me later.

Ukraine has no interest in putting even more of its population into Russia’s meat grinder… because they will obviously lose a war of attrition.

It’s kind of ridiculous how long it has taken for people to realise that this is happening… where did people think that their referrals had gone after they cratered?

Some people can only hear “AI means I can pay people less/get rid of them entirely” and stop listening.

So many services still don’t even offer 2FA at all. Any service that stores payment information and PII without any 2FA options, let alone a secure one, at this point are a disgrace.

But why male models?

Sure, but why are they pasting it to me?
