On Bandcamp Fridays, Bandcamp waives their revenue share and passes the complete funds directly to artists.

I was asking a question, so yes, I wanted to know how other people see this and how people use the music queue.

Of course I'm sure that there are many different ways to interact with Spotify and I don't think that any specific type of use is superior.

But since I don't let the algorithms influence my music selection very much, the problem described in the article doesn't have that big an impact on my everyday life.

I'm not saying that I think Spotify's approach is right. I would like a much more user-friendly music player anyway, unfortunately I find Spotify quite cumbersome and inflexible.

Apart from that, I think that artists should get a bigger share for the use of their works.

No, I don't think that and I did not write anything like that. I was just sharing my perspective. And was interested in learning how other people use the player.

I don't know, do you people let Spotify decide that much about what you hear? I normally never let the music run through so that automatic recommendations play, but I choose explicitly what's added next in the queue. So the problem mentioned in the article is not relevant to me at all.

DIE FETTEN JAHRE SIND VORBEI

We shouldn't even bother to compare, the loop thing in Las Vegas is not a transport system, it's an amusement ride.

Was du als "Holz-Klasse" beschreibst, ist doch bei innereuropäischen Flügen längst der Economy-Standard. Kostenfreie Getränke sind gestrichen, Displays gibt es keine, und Steckdosen sowieso nicht.

ah, Ars Technica noticed that OpenAI lifted the block on "David Mayer", but there still are other names:

        Brian Hood
    Johnathan Turley
    Johnathan Zittrain
    David Faber
    Guido Scorza

Idk, I can't reproduce this failure, I was able to tell ChatGPT that I am David Mayer and I got it to talk with me about my name and have it repeat the name several times.

He was initially invested in OpenAI, but then there was a dispute over the strategies and Musk left OpenAI. Musk now has the company xAI and is developing Grok.

The average American spent just over $60,000 a year in 2021, but spending habits vary significantly between age groups. Those born from 1965 to 1980 – spent the most money last year, with average expenditure of $83,357.

Erupt fast and swallow things.

Einfacher Plan: Immer am 1. eines Monats wechseln.

What is NSFW about that?

There's nothing like "Gen Z" or "Gen X". Stop this bullshit that's not more grounded than astrology. There's cultural development in society, but it's not restricted to an age cohort.

Die eigentliche Hintergrund für den Niedergang der Einkaufszentren ist das Überangebot, basierend auf der Gier der Konzerne. Ewiges Wachstum funktioniert nunmal nicht. Und in Kombination mit Preissteigerungs-Spiralen und sinkenden Reallöhnen muss die Konsum-Bubble irgendwann platzen.

Also das Fax?

Flat Saturn confirmed!

User numbers in Pokémon Go did increase during the COVID-19 pandemic. Niantic adapted the gameplay to accommodate pandemic restrictions. These changes made the game accessible even while staying at home. And then as players looked for safe, outdoor activities to break up indoor routines, user numbers went up.
