If ranting about cultural associations of animals makes me autistic, I don't want to be autistic!

My neighbors have a Maine Coon, that dude is already pretty big. And I think cheetahs are almost the same size. So I'll go ahead and assume you're a giant.

No no. "Ph.D." stands for "Phillip Dick", an old drinking pal of Sam Altman. According to some interviews, you can ask him pretty much anything and get a response.

Sure, that's fair, but 1) you're just one user out of many thousands, and 2) stuff like "multiple 4 minute ads in a video" is usually rolled out through A/B testing, so many users probably never saw it.

Apps and video games have been thoroughly enshittified, at least on mobile, but also partially on desktop. Amazon Prime is also still very successful and people have not stopped watching Amazon shows entirely.

Do you see the major difference? In audio streaming, most providers have most content. In video streaming, single providers have most content. That means video streaming will get enshittified much more quickly.

You have to be a bit careful, because some people deliberately talk in wrong German ("Zangendeutsch", where words are translated from English by "force").
