Hell, the words are a giveaway it's A.I. created and a creepy Dolly Parton??? imitation I'm guessing as well. That's the one thing that separates A.I. from humans. Emotions. The irrational logic set behind human emotions is so convoluted that an A.I. can never hope to copy it. At least I hope not, o...

I got mine in the early 20's as well, but since I'm a retired old lady, no job searching, fortunately. Say, you're talking about advertising, how about what's going on in gaming? I think the first iteration of implementing ads were within the game itself years ago. Something like billboards on stree...

The next time conservatives complain about Biden's brain, they'd better check out Trump's too. He seems to have a fixation on electric boats, electrocution and sharks whenever his teleprompter is not there or on the fritz.

Tunnelcat

Wow, thanks. I'll have to check those out.

:lol: I get very little spam. Most entities I do business with honor the unsubscribe request if they overdo emails. The only thing I get is a pesky car dealer's spam. I got sick of them sending me nags about buying one of their new cars, so I labeled them as spam out of frustration to shut them up. ...

Me as well. I play it when I want to go robot hunting through the mines. I still want to see what D2 and D2 look like raytraced, so I'll set both of those up and play. Those are my 2 favorite Descent games, even more than Overload.

What about free email hosting like Gmail? I don't see ads in their interface. How long before Google wants, or needs to, monetize that service? I'm sure I'll hit their storage limits and have to pay for more eventually.

Tunnelcat

Fascinating. I wonder how long it will take for A.I. to get around Glaze and Nightshade?

Tunnelcat

Thanks for the update. I want to download this one. I haven't played D1 or D2 for awhile and want to try it on my RTX 3080Ti.

The wild, west of the internet. The government hasn't caught up with making new rules and laws to regulate things and so much intellectual theft goes on that corporations and companies can't keep up with it. Of course, A.I. will make that problem nearly unsolvable. I'm sure most of them have full ti...

Just tell us what we have to do for you to stop posting here. I did my absolute best... But the Woodchip posts are still far more popular than any post I can come up with. I'm not sure him leaving would be healthy for this forum. With the state of our politics in this country and given how much eac...

Isaac, you don't need to worry; I'd leave you alone. Because you actually follow the rules.

I'm seriously thinking about it. I'll let Krom and Jeff250 mull it over for a bit.

When is too much monetization outright greed? How much of the ad revenue we sit through pays for the content we watch? YouTube has an ad free subscription for around $10 a month, or about $100 a year. They don't produce most the content, users typically do, and most are regular people just posting s...

I'd pay to watch.

You're welcome to it. I'm getting sick of MAGA and Christian Nationalists at this point.

Tunnelcat

The new great problem. How to monetize the internet that was formerly a freedom wild nerd ideal. They're still flailing at it. Looking at cable TV is a great example. We pay through the nose for cable, but still get hosed with advertising. I'm guessing out of an hour of any programing on any network...

Put it this way. Even many normal Republicans don't want a Trump second term. So they're either not voting, voting for a different conservative, or holding their nose and voting for Biden. Then you're forgetting that Independents and suburban women hate the bastard for both his crass behavior toward...

I like how we're two pages in on why the e&c is dead. He couldn't resist. It's a drug addiction to troll the libs for every MAGAite nutcase out there. We should've taken bets on how long it was going to take for woodchip to eventually come back and start in again. And when he did come back, it ...

Well, ain't that grand. Little Donnie Jr holding a custom Crusader AR with a Crusader helmet and a mag depicting Hillary in jail. Nice guy.

They'd have to make that page enticing enough to attract clicks. But unless it's targeted to your interests, I'll bet a lot of people bypass it or keep their ad blockers on. And the only way advertisers know your tastes is through tracking, and most knowledgeable net surfers know how to block tracke...

I can figure it out. It's just a question of how long before Microsoft blocks this most recent way to do it. It's become a game of just who owns your computer and for how long at this point.

There's a difference between choosing between rotten politicians and holding your nose to cast a vote because you think one is less evil than the other and being a member of a cult with unquestioned fealty to it's master and kissing the very ground he walks on delusional and absolute loyalty.

Right now, I'm assuming that HP preloaded the install for Windows 11Pro, so no USB stick or using Rufus. I'll have to see when I hook up the system. Will the above method work for my case? So don't connect to the internet (the motherboard doesn't have WiFi, Ethernet LAN only) and follow the instruct...

Isaac, it tells you volumes about someone when all they can come up to discuss is the hateful one-sided propaganda rhetoric they gleaned from their stovepipe of a news feed on their phones every day. I know this because my sister feeds off of it like it's the factual truth to never question, like th...

My town is very bike friendly. Lots of bike paths to use to go most places. However, I've noticed that one of our major grocery store parking lots doesn't have a simple sidewalk to enter the entire complex from the northern direction, which is were I come from when walking. Car only. One has to walk...

Wow, Microsoft has been hard at work blocking all the ways to bypass setting up a local account, even through the command prompt. So far, this guy's method is the most recent way to set up a local account in Win 11. I don't know if Win 11Pro is any different, but I'm guessing not. https://youtu.be/Q...

Do you understand the the wheels of our prosecutorial system are slow and sometimes it takes years to investigate someone before anyone is brought to trial?

Vander or CDN_Merlin. Can you tell me the exact steps you took to bypass the Microsoft account creation and the Hotmail part when setting up Windows 11?

CoPilot and Recall. It's almost like MS wants everyone to hate them and live with it. Screw the users, we own your computers now, bwuaaaahaaaahaaaahaaaa!

Trumps followers are just like him. They can't keep their mouths shut for very long.

State court. Boo hoo. My mistake and it's my fault, not the "liberal news". He still got charged with 34 felony counts under New York law. Under New York State law, falsification of business records is a crime when the records are altered with an intent to defraud. To be charged as a felon...

Look at it this way for felonies, Trump is now a convicted felon. He was found found guilty on 34 counts in a federal court of law by a jury that was selected by both the prosecution and the defense. That means Trump's defense lawyers found nothing untowards with any of the jury members they questio...
