Because it’s standard practice in China to just close a company and restart it under a new name. The government can decide to shut down everything overnight.
Look at parts availability for stuff sold by Chinese brands.
American manufacturers need to provide parts for 10 years after the last of the same model car rolled off the assembly line. Good luck forcing Chinese brands to respect that.
They still build the only real EV truck though
It reminds me of that Black Mirror episode where people have memory chips to allow them to relive everything they’ve ever lived.
That preservation comes at a cost though, both monetary and environmental, and the amount of data to preserve increases exponentially.
Why should we care? Never in our history have we chronicled all the mundane things like we find on the internet. It’s like saying we need to archive all the kids drawings or all the personal journals or record all in person conversations and archive them… Just because it’s digital data that can be archived if we feel like it doesn’t mean it’s important.
Aaaand… Again…
But nice story though…
Again, not the same thing.
But you’re not preventing them from showing the ad if your TV is open while it’s running, so no it’s not the same, what you’re talking about would be you doing the same for ads on YouTube (going to pee while they’re playing) instead of stopping them from playing altogether.
That’s what I was going to ask, should people start patenting things in order to prevent companies from using them?
Their third most active market that they just lost
“people keep claiming this but it’s not true!”
Fucking hell buddy, I’m running Mint 22, that was released in late July, that means I’m talking about my own experience from less than a month ago. Bazzite was shitting the bed for my GPU with no one having experienced the same thing (display signal cutting off whenever there was a load on the GPU) and on Mint my wifi usb adapter that is supposed to work out of the box as of kernel 6.2 (from February… Last year!) would drop connection after 5 minutes if it worked at all after waking from suspend.
In the end I had to install a homebrewed driver and block the one used by default. You know when I don’t have to do any of that? When I install Windows. You know how you create safety issues? By getting people used to installing random stuff from the internet to get their computer working.
If it took you 7h to install Windows then honestly you were doing something wrong.
Heavy rain or snow all that matters is if the lights work!

Thicker paint so more chipping resistance? Where do I sign up? 😮
“not properly picking my hardware”
So… Perfectly average AMD hardware (5600x, 6650xt) that works correctly with Mint but not with Bazzite is a me not choosing the right hardware problem?
My wifi usb adapter supposedly being supported but not working for some reason is a me not choosing the right hardware problem?
I also run Linux and let me tell you, you’re still dealing with a ton of bullshit. I never had to spend tens of hours to try and find the version of Windows on which I am able to get my hardware running properly only to have to trust some stranger telling me to install some home made driver to finally find the last piece of my puzzle.
That’s established and stable brands that manufacture things in China which is completely different from Chinese brands building things in China and that can just close their doors tomorrow morning and leave the owners without any source for parts.
If an established manufacturer closes their doors tomorrow morning the same issue arises, the difference is that Chinese companies are known to do that and the Chinese government sometimes is responsible for closing them or simply doesn’t care about the effect on customers. They can reopen the following day and produce the same items as before but they won’t send you parts for the thing they were producing the day prior because it’s not the same company anymore.
