With Louis Rossman, sometimes I dont find his videos very interesting. But every now and again he will drop a bombshell that sends waves throughout the industry, and for that, I respect him immensely.

Outside of his YouTube stuff, the way hes so vocal about Right to Repair too. I think its awesome. More power to him.

Won't somebody please think about the poor lowly fossil fuel company shareholders.

How will they ever achieve pertetual growth every quarter if this tech gains traction.

We should tax these new technologies so that fossil fuels can still compete

/s in case its not obvious lol

Went down a bit of a rabbit hole here. Very interesting. Would love to see a Vsauce style video going into various real life examples of this

Thanks for sharing.

Unfettered Capitalism breeds emshitification.

Why build and keep a great product when shareholders will always push for more growth and higher revenue. Even if that means laying off your best devs and pissing off users.

Not through the API call, but elsewhere like when you make an account on their website etc

As far as I know, companies like Gfycat make money by selling API access to different apps. Like say in a messaging app likeTelegram or Signal. The easiest way for them to integrate a gif search and send function inside of messages is through API access to Gfycat's servers. Gfycat then charges them for this streamlined integration and access.

That plus selling user data or ads on their website means they will have some revenue. I dont know if its enough to keep them afloat. Since they are shutting down, I'm guessing it didnt pan out so well.

I think its probably the server being weird. Hopefully it gets resolved soon

Yes they do

Oh for fuck sake.

Fuck Google. I used Waze since it didnt need a Google account and was still reasonably popular in my area.

If I have to use a Google account for this shit, I dont know what I'd do.

Cuphead, Control, Persona 5

Might have to see though, dont have much cash rn

This gave me a good chuckle. Thanks OP

'No I dont think I will'

Use Firefox btw

Fuck that. Nothing short of Reddit getting rid of its CEO, Open Sourcing their app and canceling their IPO plans would even make me consider using it again. I see a much better future on the Fediverse.

Charge they phone

Not just a girls best friend.

I'm a guy and I'd kill for a functional housing market lol

I thought this was some kind of joke because John Goodenough doesnt sound real

But it is! Thank you for your service sir. RIP
