I guess there are some examples of that happening with places like patreon, floatplane, twitch, kick, etc. It’s hard to fathom anything coming along that can even approach the reach of youtube without backing from another big tech company and eventually following the same enshittification pattern.
That used to be a fair deal. We know better now and even have a word for what will happen to us once we’re locked into the system, enshittification. Just about every subscription model eventually leads to squeezing as much as they can out of us without a corresponding increase in value.

That’s the guide I followed on my desktop and laptop.
From the article: “people with bricked devices will need to contact the company’s customer support for recourse”
It’s still early but I’m going to keep on eye on how they treat the people that call them for support.
I haven’t read the entire XDA thread but there are a few posts saying it’s limited to ColorOS (Chinese version of android that everyone else gets as OxygenOS). Unable to verify.
If they don’t reverse course, I’m sure it’ll roll out globally eventually. This has to run afoul of EU’s strong warranty laws right?
I have no doubts about your experience. I can only rely on personal experience, which has been the exact opposite, and that of expert reviewers.
I own a sony TV. The hdtvtest guy is my goto for staying updated on TV tech and sony regularly comes out as his best of the year. Yes, they’re pricey but you’re getting something for that premium.
This is a sad day in my books now that TCL will be able to enshittify the Sony brand.
I hate everything Musk is associated with and I have never and will never spend a dime in the epic game store. That said, I’m willing to stretch pretty far to say this quote might be more about his favoured type of reprehensible speech than csam:
All major AIs have documented instances of going off the rails; all major AI companies make their best efforts to combat this; none are perfect. Politicians demanding gatekeepers selectively crush the one that’s their political opponent’s company is basic crony capitalism.
He wouldn’t have a leg to stand on if Musk ignored/laughed off the whole thing instead of stupidly threatening the users posting the images but I guess that’s the least we can expect these days instead of actual accountability.
I wouldn’t take it seriously. 1660 has 6gb while they list 8 as the min and the 3060ti has 8gb and they say recommended needs 12. Probably AI generated crap.
Also, if it’s going to be based on the hitman 3 engine, it’ll run really well on most hardware.
Hitman 3 Recommended Requirements
An upgraded engine with RT will probably mean at least 3600/3060 for 1080/60.
Link complains about adblock.
"Intel will continue to have GPU product offerings,”
The headline is misleading. GPU offering could refer to their integrated GPUs rather than discrete cards.
With the amount of ray-traced reflections in the game, I doubt the ps5 with the previous gen amd gpu can even hit 40fps with a 1440 render resolution. It would probably have to drop to 1080 or less. It’s definitely going to be game that will be best played on pc.
Isn’t GTA6 targeting 30fps for the base PS5?
They’re basically saying the AI companies are going to keep demand elevated to the point that supply will never catch up. It’s possible but with variables like public backlash, unrealistic power requirements, eventual financial and AI regulation, I would bet on a painful collapse.
