In a world where actually owning a console is going to be increasingly more unaffordable, and they're now setting higher prices for per-hour streaming of games? Looks like the meme of the dude slipping a bar in his bike's wheel and blaming the libs for the inevitable fall
@csolisr I really do think that when this bubble bursts (the AI and general enshittification bubble) a lot of companies we thought were too big too fail, will fail. I do not think that we should bail out single one of them.
At the very least I want to see how much of social media inevitably becomes lost media. Imagine losing Reddit or YouTube for example - as much as they're full of junk, there is plenty of culturally relevant content that is sadly hosted nowhere else, and archiving it elsewhere at short notice is not viable, especially with YT.
That’s per month! 😂
