I don't know how zuckerberg could have hosed up his "metaverse" push and harder unless the company was actually self sabotaging. Literally no legs to stand on as a product.

Zuck was ditching meetings to go hang out at Reality Labs, I believe he's willing to tank Facebook just to get more cutting edge VR demos out of it

Apparently Zuck got new handlers and they advised him to grow a beard. He looks "normal" now. I'd post a picture but it's very nsfw to look at his face and I don't want to get banned.

He didn't make it mandatory to use Facebook, so he merely set a lot of money on fire, but didn't hurt the core products (modulo opportunity costs).

His obsession with Caesar leading to that loving haircut kills me every time. I wonder if he tells his stylist "please make me look like a school shooter"

I feel like the coaching or whatever has been paying off and zuck is coming across better in interviews these days. The marketing blitz with him doing regular/fun stuff like bbqing has been well done too.

Cybertruck has been recalled because the big geniuses there used lube to attach the accelerator pedal cover to the pedal and it was prone to slipping off and getting stuck. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9ezp0lv039o quote:The company says an "unapproved change" in the production of the pedal meant "lubricant" was used in its assembly, which means the pad did not stick properly to the pedal.

Just for the record soap is a perfectly fine lubricant for things that don't need to stay lubricated forever or shouldn't be full of grease. The real wtf is that there was no proper fastener and/or whatever glue they used was soluble in soap.

The problem as I understand it is that it's a push-fit gripping the pedal, but that makes it hard to put on so they use a lubricant to make it slide on easier, but that also makes it slide off easier.

Wouldn't surprise me the whole issue is around them trying to make it hold on through the properties of the shape (because they need to lubricate to assemble) rather than just gluing a strip of rubber onto metal (which is how we attached linatex and other rubber wearing products to metal robustly).

And then we find out it's because Elon insisted they be able to sell an aftermarket replacement pedal cover shaped like a dick or something.

So...how does YouTube's ad algorithm work exactly? I have my watch history turned off and pretty much just watch bad movie reviews, a little true crime, some sports and stand up comedy. Documentaries here and there. For some reason, 80% of my ads are weird games where people stand in a line to get eaten by a monster. Usually, it's a lady monster who likes to laugh at the lemming soldiers and also there's a pit or a cave between her and the dudes lining up to die. WTF are those games even?

It's basically click bait for anyone who thinks "pretty lady booba" and gets tempted to click on it, because they'll possibly actually install and try it Even when it's very clearly not the same thing. The game is usually some rip off of existing popular f2p games.

I've sat through a few of these ads and...there's not even really a game there that I can see.

You have watch history turned off, they're not targeting YOU, they're targeting an amalgam of regular YouTube users.

Yeah it's part that it's far cheaper to make a clickbait ad than to make an actual game that isn't a clone, part targeting the average youtuber/social media user, and part

BiggerBoat posted:Now I just have even more questions You're currently being served ads from the "don't bother with targeting or segmentation, just show whoever" cheap ads bucket. It's unlikely that you'll care, but because it's so cheap the buyer probably doesn't care either; they just want whales, they don't care where they come from, and if the untargeted ads can still get enough results they'll keep buying them. It's not that they know your deepest, creepiest secrets and desires (and they do...), it's that this is what everyone gets. You're getting the 2024 version of "punch the monkey to win an iPod"

The situation is a lot more obvious if you look at an actual picture:  They made the stupid metal cover slide on from the top. Because it's a flat trapezoid. There are so many other ways they could have designed it to just not have this problem. This is the fix Tesla has opted for:

BiggerBoat posted:So...how does YouTube's ad algorithm work exactly? Everyone gets Hero Wars ads, now that Mafia City, Evony and Raid: Shadow legends seem to have found the whale-to-ad-dollar ratio drop too low. Advertising exists on a spectrum from highly targeted, well crafted and expensive to low quality spam carpet-bombed indiscriminately across the internet. The latter is almost always about games, gambling and girls, because they're the cheapest, quickest most addictive dopamine hits you can get. They make up the majority of ads on the internet, because there's only so much stuff of genuine substance people need or can afford.
