AI. BOTS. MILLENIAL INFANTILE DESIGN. CORPORATE SPEAK.

Gee, I wonder why people aren't tripping over themselves to join this.

Instead, crony capitalism, abuse of power, or something else is more appropriate

So, standard capitalism stuff?

Wouldn't know. Left Windows behind and now it's someone else's problem.

What community? Getting whipped along with your work colleagues? I swear these studies are totally sponsored by some business interests.

Digimon World 4.

Granted, I was a child when I played it, but it was fun.

Years later I found a few YouTubers shitting on it due to bugs, recycled assets, lack of digivolutions, shitty camera angles, spammy gameplay, etc etc.

I agree with all of these criticisms and in hindsight yea that game was really lazy. However, I still had a good time.

The less I hear from out of touch Boomers complaining about their queer grandkids the better my life is.

The same people who claim to be the side of Christ.

I have a different theory. Google started scrapping Reddit since its gone public, so I think this is a strategy to get people to use [search query] + reddit in order to find answers, so that Google can scrape that data to train their AI

Reminds me of that "study" from HP where they hacked a third-party ink cartridge to justify not letting you use their printer, even to scan, without buying genuine HP cartridges and having them on at all times.

Ridiculous levels of gaslighting.

I love how on Lemmy Windows is not immediately assumed to be the default OS, lol.

Are we all Linux users?

No! Don't take the fall for what Windows forces you to do. Creating a billion GUI menus for users to get through before reaching what they really want to reach was Microsoft's choice, not yours.

That's the AI code at work there.

Mac is actually nice to use though... My wife has one and it was my first exposure to them.

As a lifelong Windows user, I recall vividly asking myself "why am I not being abused by random pop ups and an overly complicated process to achieve basic things right now?" over and over while working on her machine.

Plus their graphical interface is a pleasure to work with once you get past some of its quirks. If I wasn't already happily on Linux I would definitely move to Mac.
