I think best changes per person. For many tech savvy folks I feel Linux by sheer way of the others shooting themsleves in the foot has become quite attractive, especially if you have to use it during the day anyways. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
There's quite a few posts about this on reddit now.
And people keep saying: "Nobody wants this. Who asked for this?"
And..I have not seen ONE post in any of these where someone says they want it.
it really does look like no end user wants this. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
I remember the first or second Azure products were being released in 2006 or 7 and Microsoft said their customers didn't really want a full database, but rather a schema. RDS listened to that call and had a solid laugh. Once a book seller thought microshaft what cloud is, they just followed and collected the crumbs. You'll just make fun of yourself telling me how technically innovative Microsoft is. But try harder. I will give you more examples. Hopefully you'll reach your embarrassment point sooner than later... | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |

I agree. Actually, I think it should be an add-on for 365 licenses. But really it should just be abandoned if the security problems are this bad. It sounds like a disaster. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |

I doubt that will happen, this isn't the late 90s. Besides, Torvalds has already said he's getting into arm systems. What will not happen is privacy invasion like Recall. Think of it in terms of rootkits (Anti-Cheat) ... we can still play 99% of the games on Steam. The Linux world will be more cautiious. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Um. The Internet? I am old enough to remember folks fighting the need to get online. Or maybe smartphones ... a lot of folks fought those tooth and nail.
I'm not oppose to LLMs but I'm cautious because Governments and the courts haven't weighed in yet. It will change the landscape. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
You'd think so but you might be surprised that megacorp Infosec teams will not want this. The code leaks that could occur from a dev or finanials leaking from a non-technical finance person losing their laptop or clicking on something. There are a LOT of big brother tools out there that are more thought out than Recall is. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
The official meal of Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
>But let's put it this way: Microsoft is building a feature into Windows that is monitoring and logging a ton of data about you and the way you use your PC. Traditionally, we’d call this “spyware.”
No, we call this "logs". I am getting tired of this narrative like Microsoft is pointing you to a gun while they open your socks' drawer.
I mean, I don't find the feature appealing and I will disable it, but it's clear that Microsoft has been doing a good job in following international privacy laws and following their own privacy policy. Windows 11 is pretty much the most secure Windows we have right now, and the whole feature is running locally.
Can this feature backfire you if your system is compromised? Of course, but that happens with any existing feature of your PC that stores personal information, like a Password Manager browser extension, and people aren't fuzzing about that. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Lmao what? The Internet and smartphones (at least the first couple of iPhones and rivals) were genuine innovations that made people excited.

It’s almost certainly not true, but I also got some amusement from imagining the absurd situation where companies are forced to recall laptops *because of* a feature named “recall.”
Man. Microsoft can’t seem to get out of their own damn way, can they? If they didn’t try to force specific products or features on users and instead let people experience things and try things out on their own terms, decent ones like the Edge browser would be much more popular.
It’s the same principle with things like that one “free” U2 album that got auto-downloaded on everyone’s iTunes account. This was a failed experiment for a simple reason: even if they had ambivalent or positive feelings about the band U2, a lot of people took one look and said, “What the fuck is this? I didn’t ASK for this. Take it off!”
And now Microsoft is doing a similar thing with an app that would be considered invasive malware in most other circumstances. “Shocked Pikachu” when everyone hates it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |

They don't have to pay someone. Again, watch a demo of Teramind. Recall doesn't do everything Teramind does, but it obviously \*could\*. I can't imagine that isn't MS's goal. It's a huge market.
I'm not endorsing any of this. I think that this kind of monitoring should be illegal for all but the MOST sensitive stuff, and that it should NEVER be used as a "performance monitoring" tool by employers. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |

First of all, if you’re on a work computer, the machine and data on it belong to the company and not you so they can look at anything they want.
Second of all they can already watch your screen, monitor your network traffic and watch their users all they want. You they going to pay extra for computers with AI chips, extra ram and extra storage to do something they can already do without recall? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Yeah because me and hundreds of thousands of people are just hallucinating the fact that recall OCRs passwords etc and stores them as plaintext, and the tiny bits that ARE encrypted use a type of encryption that windows itself has deprecated, that was broken years ago ("for reasons") | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |

A few hundred thousand subs?
Netflix has been reported to have 6 million Canadian subscribers.
Yes, they'll still have to give 5% to the government. So they'll raise subscription costs 5.25% and break even for themselves, sending the extra to the government. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
No, but the amount does.
They just increase the subscription price 5.25% and then they can remit 5% and still receive the same amount of post-tax revenue from Canada. And it's hard to imagine that isn't what they would do.
The extra 0.25% (actually 0.26%) makes up for the 5% they have to pay on the 5% increase in revenue. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
So you’re saying 1 in 7 Canadians pays for a Netflix account yet Netflix should be exempt from CRTC regulations? Radio stations have to play Canadian content but streamers can do whatever they want?
Higher numbers of subs means a company that sells cultural content should be even more accountable to our laws regarding cultural content. If 15-20% of Canadians are involved in something it matters _even more_. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
And you could pay your plumber a 20% tip on top of his invoice the next time he unclogs your toilet.

I couldn't care less. I'll only pay the cost I'm willing to bear, regardless of whether they pass these costs on or not (they certainly will.)
Suckers can keep enduring their price increases and excuses forever, but I won't. Netflix already will never get my business again. That list can only stay the same or grow. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

It comes down to how you calculate Canadian revenue. Even though it seems obvious it's wildly unreasonable to assume that every dollar originating from a Canadian customer constitutes revenue in that country due to the way licensing distribution works. Some companies play games like the double Dutch to intentionally mess with this. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
It’s a great day for Canada and therefore the world. 🇨🇦 | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
What I’m trying to say is if 30 million people are gonna cost you X amount of dollars, you may not think it’s worth it. I am in no way bashing the nation of Canada or the Canadian people. I am simply saying when you are a country with 30 million people, I’m not sure how much sway you’re gonna have certain companies especially with China and India rising like they have over the last decade. But I guess like another commentor said, they’ll just pass the cost onto the Canadian people. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

Hoping for more Trailer Park Boys and Letterkenny instead | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |
Idk, I'm torn. On one hand, I think it's important to support the arts by giving folks a chance to make it, especially that which doesn't necessarily have wide appeal but is still and important story to tell or voice to be heard. On the other hand, specifically making media companies fund it in a way that the cost will obviously be pushed off directly onto canadian consumers seems flawed. Art and shared culture/experience benefits everyone. If the Canadian govt feels it's so important, the burden should be shared by all Canadian taxpayers and businesses, not just one sector and their customer base.
And then the patriot in me says fuck anyone who dares to threaten our media juggernauts. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-04-06 |

Yes and if big tech is smart they'll embrace the changes and will price fix the services so they're all the same price anyways. This is a sneaky ploy to stop innovation in the guise of creating new jobs? Or funnelling money to the govt without direct taxation? Not sure the end game, but if an independent service wanted to enter the Canadian online streaming market, and they are bound by the same laws, it creates a barrier to entry. It ensures the big players get eyes, while new players must secure capital before releasing content to market.
Maybe I've missed something, but it's just monopolization we see in many industries in Canada coming to an internet near you. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
>which what even qualifies these days? Do they have to be born in Canada? Can it just be filmed or recorded in Canada? What about non-native minorities?
Why do people pretend that this is some unknown thing? The CRTC maintains a [website](https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/cancon.htm) that specifies exact what the requirements to qualify as CanCon are. It's not a mystery.
>There gonna be some govt funded Bollywood style movies coming out soon?
I imagine there already are some. I'm not Indian and I don't watch Bollywood style movies myself, so I have no idea, but they do make up a sizeable community within Canada so I would have to imagine some of them have taken advantage of government grants and financing.
>Then the free market takes over.
That's the problem though. The world's largest English-language media producing country is our neighbour. If we just let the free market take over, the only media that would exist in Canada would be American. That's not a hypothetical either, before CanCon legislation, Canadian music was almost never played on Canadian radio stations, and aside from the CBC, Canadian television programs pretty much didn't even exist. After all, why go through the hassle of producing your own shows when you can just buy them for 1/10th the price from the USA?
Of course, to an American, this all seems silly, since your culture is already the most dominant one for the English language. Maybe try watching the BBC for a month straight, and then tell me if you'd be okay if that was the only thing you could ever watch again in your life. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Spotify is a Swedish company, not an American one. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
I personally think, if Canada wants good media and content they need to make Canadians WANT to create it not TELL them to.
I always felt this was the biggest issue watching Canadian programming, half the time it's just phoned in and we're just making this as filler for all the other good stuff on the radio/television
It's a waste of fucking money for the most part. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Canadian politicians need to stop doing this. The companies don't care because the Canadian market is small. The corporations will simply limit Canadian content and not comply. Lose lose. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
>Sounds like an absolute win for Canadians in that case. Maybe not for Meta who'd prefer to harvest all that user data, though.
OK, now imagine Reddit were targeted instead of Meta and Facebook.
Would you still support *your* government forcing changes to *your* platform of choice in order to reduce *your* usage of it?
I am no fan of Facebook or Meta, for the record. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Did you read the article? Are you Canadian? I am. I haven't been knocked off social media or blocked from Facebook. All that's changed is Meta was unwilling to play ball with the governments rules surrounding news on the platform, and so now there's no longer news.
Perhaps you think Facebook news has done a lot of good stateside. I don't know. To me it seems like the US has never been closer to a civil war thanks to social media disinformation primarily distributed through poorly sourced 'news' articles that people take as fact.
If Canadians are avoiding this level of poorly sourced propaganda thanks to initiatives like this, then yes, I'm thankful for it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
I wholeheartedly agree with everything you said, but, I got a chuckle reading this because the US was famously closer to a civil war on at least one occasion: the American Civil War | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Lol. Fair point. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Great post about spectrum but you missed the underlying issue.
Larger countries that have strong media export like the US dominate other smaller countries if there is no Federal level intervention.
Canada has less population that most US states. We would not have media if it wasn’t protected. By protecting Cancon we have ended up punching above our weight in the media we produce.
This 5% isn’t for American consumers - it is entirely based on Canadian revenue streams. It’s a company operating on Canadian ‘soil’ for Canadian consumers and now they have to compete with existing Canadian broadcasters. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-06-06 |

I was helping him figure out self driving, but I stopped because that's what I realized. The future is us living in the matrix. Instead of a car, people's most significant purchase will be a headset. Or however we achieve such a goal.
I'm still working out how we transition to a matrix/metaverse society. I'm thinking of starting a company that allows you to leave your real body behind. It will be permanent you won't be able to go back to the physical world. If you unplug from the machine you die, but your body is taken care of.

Where would you place Elon on a scale of below average to extraordinary? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
The purchase would legally need to be fulfilled according to the purchase order, unless both parties agree to break the contract.
A lot of this depends on what the agreement between Nvidia, Tesla and xAI was. Since Elon represents both Tesla and xAI, he can negotiate on behalf of both.
He likely did one of the following:
1) Tesla purchased the GPUs, then resold it to xAI
2) Tesla purchased the GPUs, cancelled the order. Nvidia agreed to fulfill the same order for xAI instead (under the same conditions)
3) Tesla purchased the GPUs, then loaned the GPUs to xAI.
The question here is what did Elon do? And more importantly, what were the terms of the transaction?
I **hope** that Elon transferred the assets to xAI for a FAIR price. If he didn't, he is effectively defrauding the company/shareholders. This would open him up for a lawsuit (executives have a fiduciary responsibility to shareholders). | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
Or Tesla approved the purchase order, had it delivered, paid, and then resold it to xAI.
Or Tesla approved the purchase order, had it delivered, paid, and the loaned it to xAI.
Or Tesla cancelled the order with the stipulation that xAI would purchase the same order (with the same conditions/order amounts)

You're wasting you're time trying to reason with people who simply hate Elon (eLoN bAd), no matter the context. Yes, you are correct.

Because the earlier shipping date is far more valuable. Tesla gave twitter a preferable shipping date and didn't charge them for the upgrade. Any other business is paying for the privilege of getting valuable assets sooner. Just consider if Facebook, Google, or OpenAI wanted the chips sooner. Tesla would be charging a premium for the trade-swap. Essentially Elon gave favor to his personal company against the best interest of Tesla. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-05-06 |
