  • Honestly agreed, I think it’s reasonable for a company as big as Delta to have a functioning continuity plan, the fact that it took them over 5 days to come back online is Unforgivable for a service that is detrimental to society like a transportation service.

    Personally speaking I think that the 500 million lawsuit should be thrown out exclusively on that. It is Delta’s inability to properly manage their company’s IT services that exclusively cause this.

    I’m not down playing crowdstrike here, what they did is unforgivable as well because how they manage their software completely bypassed all channels that are meant to prevent shit like this from happening, but every other system was online within two days if that, because they had proper failsafes in place to minimize damages and regain operational status.

    But ultimately, crowd strikes mess up was obviously an error on their end, where Delta not having a proper procedure in place is obviously intentional as having a Disaster Recovery where you lose most of your infrastructure has been IT management 101 for years now.

    Being said, I do not agree that crowdstrike should be allowed to operate in the level that it was allowed to in the first place, and I definitely Embrace Microsoft’s decision to start heading towards locking out access to ring 0 in favor of ring 1 and ring 2. With this decision I’m wondering if intel is going to revise their plans for the new x86S framework to not have ring 1 and 2 and only have 0 and 3





  • You joke but like, they are already pushing a twitch style sub model pretty hard already with the youtube “private sub” system that creators can do, it grants you access to videos that the creator marked as a subscription only, which is basically the same thing, as it shows you the video, and a tiny “sub only” label, and when you try to open it it brings you to the sub page.

    I forsee in the future youtube moving to a fully monetary model with only brand issued content being “free” and everything else requiring youtube premium


  • the content creator isn’t following the proper system then. You don’t need YouTube to do a copyright/IP violation claim. Google is actually opening themselves up to significantly hot water if they are indeed refusing to allow a process for DMCA on creators that are deleted off the platform, as there are severe penalties for not reacting to a DMCA claim when you are a content provider.

    If they actually owned the rights to the videos, that creators first step when learning that Youtube is not going to do anything about the violation, is to manually file it themselves, and honestly they should state that Youtube at that point is intentionally allowing it which would perhaps pull Youtube into it as well

    just because YouTube decides that they aren’t going to do anything, doesn’t invalidate your claim to copyright. I’m surprised that the channel hasn’t seeked legal action against anyone regarding it.

    My two cents on the matter is that it’s likely the channel is worried that their videos aren’t transformative enough fair use wise and that they themselves may get into legal troubles if they attempted to. A lot of commentary artists stay borderline on fair-use and not fair use, however if this was not the case, they have a pretty decent chance of winning that suit.

    The biggest reason of why I struggle to get into any of the subscription-based games, because none of them are only subscription based, they charge you both for the game and the subscription afterward so you have both the price of the game plus any type of expansion packs plus the subscription cost monthly afterward and that’s without including any of the microtransactions. I don’t know why anyone plays them









  • So far they haven’t shown any form above declined. In fact the actually just decided to separate from being an official Samsung repair partner, because Samsung was trying to dictate how much they were charging for the repair costs and were actively hinderings efforts regarding repairing Samsung products, so they decide that Samsung wasn’t aligned with their programs values and decided to drop the program. This doesn’t mean that they dropped how to repair Samsung devices, it just means that they no longer offer second party access to Parts it’s now third party and Samsung themselves aren’t providing the repair manuals anymore (not that they really did in the first place)

    While I find their tools pretty steep in pricing, there’s still nowhere near cost of doing it through Apple or Samsung
