Yep, I didn’t know if those were reliable tho or if YouTube had started inserting algorithmic content into playlists yet. And critically, when a playlist ends it should end, not roll right in to other “related” content. And of you’re it’s YouTube-only, so there would be no way to l a playlist that contained other sources.

I’m only hearing upsides here.

Yes, I was thinking something YouTube (or long-form media) specific with the purpose of replacing the YouTube algorithm. So for example maybe someone who loves astronomy puts together a playlist about supernovas that include a video from pbs spacetime, Sabine Hossenfelder and kursgesagt. Then he puts together other playlists. Over time you’d recognize this curator’s name and trust them not to point you to garbage.

Maybe it’s time for the return of curated lists. Back in the day (even before the web) there used to be people who organized lists of videos to rent, books to read, etc. why not bring it back in a lemmy channel or some other trusted service. Just curated lists of specific videos.

To do “$500 billion in the US over the next couple of years” they would have to do a deal of this size nearly every day for the next 3 years.

Do it! Do it! Do it!

It looks like an iPhone. But thinner.

Ah the old “owe $100 and the bank owns you; owe $100,000,000 and you own the bank” defense.

He’s a modern day arms dealer.

On the one hand, I understand the inherent limitations of pseudonymous social media and why a corporation and even end users might benefit from authoritative user identification.

On the other hand, oh hell no.

I think that is literally how it’s done today.

Yes technically, but… I was gonna say “how would you even act on that?” but decided I’d prefer not to know.

The Meta AI app is a Privacy Disaster.

As stupid as this sounds I think we (and really the media, but we know which side they’re on) should be doing this in F for US audiences. Saying “hey, it’s now 5°F hotter than it was in the 1970s” is more immediately meaningful — and the bigger number looks scarier too.

Nah nothing fun, just tanks of propellant.

To save you a click:

• they make propulsion modules to move satellites around in LEO/GEO
• they raised $300M
• because we’re militarizing space
