The fact that corporations sees the fediverse as inconsequential. The minute people flood it in larger numbers as they are fleeing the corporate entshittified internet, that is exactly what they are going to do though.

They got more than their moneys worth in the form of the US crashing and burning like it is now.

Go stick your tongue back into Putin.

I see you are not familiar with anything, considering your complete non sequitur nonsense spouting.

Again you are just oarroting right wing religious nonsense

Well then I guess I need a new vehicle because I’m a handyman and I use a truck.

Yes, yes you do.

And astroturfing AI-bots. So many bots.

Except for the thousands of cryptobros who will flock to these kinds of threads defending their scam, as this very thread is an example of.

Not really though.

Vinyl records sounds great despite their technical inferiority to CDs and streaming (with the right equipment of course, but that applies to all formats). They do not necessarily sound better, but there is an element of customisation with them which you can’t get with CDs or streaming. Most importantly the cartridge on your turntable. Different cartridges have different soundscapes. There is of course an element of quality connected to price of cartridge, but over a certain price you are not necessarily buying a better sound but a different sound. Many vinyl record listeners, especially audiophiles, have different cartridges which they can switch out on their turntable, based on which kind of sound you want coming out of your system.

I know it may be difficult to comprehend for people who haven’t personally listened to such differences themselves, but I assure you it is not audiophile snake oil, it is a very noticeable phenomenon. That is a pretty unique capability of vinyl which I can’t really compare to anything with other formats.

The easy and speed with which AI created photos, of a quality most photoshoppers could only dream, can be created of does very much change everything.

The new thing is the scope in which fake content is being created. In a very near future most internet content will be fake, including history. That is not something that has happened before in history.

The current AI situation is completely unprecedented in history.
