Ok Thanks for the info. I might check it out 👍

It’s an interesting article and I’m also starting to think more and more about game preservation.
I don’t understand why a company like Sony wouldn’t provide you a way to play ps1-3 games on your ps5. I would even be ready to pay for it.
There might be some technical problems I’m not seeing, but people can do it on older pc’s…
I guess the whole video game industry has to think about preserving its own history.
I don’t know if open sourcing games would help, but something needs to be done.
I understand why it’s a loss for some developers, but I don’t think we should prevent Apple from integrating something in iOS just because of it.
You could also say these developers just benefited from the fact that Apple omitted to integrate some obvious features.
I don’t like Apple but I’m forced to admit that the iPhone my employer is forcing me to use and my wife’s 2012 MacBook Pro are good machines.
The MacBook runs Linux like a charm and is making me consider old MacBooks for my next Linux laptop.
I’m also looking forward to testing iOS 18.
A while ago there was an article about how Apple is destroying a lot of its phones (old generation) instead of selling them at a low price.
It was also explained that in the facility where it was done a lot of phones were disappearing because employees were stealing them to use them.
So I don’t know if they’re so good about recycling ♻️.
I can’t find the article but it seemed legit.
I’m looking forward to iOS 18 as I have to run an iPhone for work.
From what I understand, this update is gonna bring a lot of things iOS was lacking in terms of personalization.
Now I would really want them to improve on how things are handled outside of their walled garden as I’ll never buy a new mac (maybe an old one to run Linux) and they’re never gonna convince me with their old tricks of keeping special features between Apple devices.
We need a Linux version or equivalent to iTunes to backup your phone, better interoperability with Windows/Linux…
The iPhone is a great product but I feel like the walled garden is preventing me from fully enjoying it.
Please don’t give them the idea to give up on blurays or physical media.
Full HD is already perfectly fine for most people, so I can’t even imagine how great a bluray in 4k is.
I’m still watching DVD’s and, as long as the movie is great, it’s perfectly enjoyable.
Most people are watching Netflix which is apparently not giving you real full HD or 4k and people are not bothered.
Innovation is great, but having a new format would create the need to have new equipment and create even more e-waste when we can’t manage it already.
Okay thanks for the explanation. Although I wouldn’t want to download without supporting artists.
It looks like a great service, but since I’m already paying for cloud storage (kDrive from Infomaniak) I wouldn’t want to have another subscription.
Although I wouldn’t mind paying once for an equivalent to Google photos which would be storing and going through my pictures on my cloud storage.
Does anyone knows if such a program exists?
What is Usenet?
I hate the fact that Netflix is getting more and more expensive, but I still think it’s a really good deal.
There are a lot of shows and interesting movies and I hope it stays that way.
If I had to buy everything I watch on netflix, it would end up being more expensive (4-5 movies a month, 2 tv shows simultaneously).
I still buy blu-rays for my favorite movies even if I only watch them every 4-5 years.
Maybe one day Netflix is gonna end up being more expensive than just buying, but it ain’t the case for now.
And about the redesign, it’s difficult to judge without trying it first, but I ain’t a fan of the bigger thumbnails.
That game was really a masterpiece! I enjoyed every part of it!
I’m really looking forward to the next Quantic Dream game, as they never disappoint even if Beyond Two Souls was inferior to their other games.
When I read this, I’m glad I ain’t using windows anymore.
If it was turned off by default, it would be different as people would be consciously choosing. But turned on by default should be illegal.
As some people are saying, a lot of this isn’t gonna be legal in some countries.
The article is really interesting and all your comments too.
For now I have a negative bias towards AI as I only see its downsides, but I can see that not everyone thinks like me and it’s great to share knowledge and understanding.
Yeah Lemmy is really a perfect replacement without any big downside. I really enjoy the community and the help you can get from it.
I’m only using Siri to set a timer for cooking or laundry.
I don’t feel like it’s reliable enough to use it for anything else.
If some people are using it a lot, could you tell me what for?
I’d want it to assist me in a calendar and the organization of my kids custody, but it’s really not ready for important things with particularities…
I can clearly see this around me.
Not only women, but also elder men, who are really educated but lose their lucidity in front of fake news on the web. I guess it’s also because they come from a time where you were not swimming in fake news.
And sometimes, even if they think it might be fake news, they just send it to you to get your opinion on it.
Sounds like Lemmy to me😇
I don’t what more I could want from such a platform but maybe there is an advantage I’m not seeing.
I’d be really happy about anything bringing more people on Lemmy and the Fediverse, so I wouldn’t complain about it.
Maybe I’m not seeing the big picture as some people seem to be scared of such a move.
It’s a really interesting article about something we might not think about.
It’d be interesting also to try to see how much money they can save by using a lower bitrate or saving energy by using less servers.
It’s a lot of things we take for granted when we’re just watching a show and you don’t think about all the work behind it.
