Making games available to people that cannot pay is still a win for Nintendo... Nintendo gets money from selling consoles, games (sold in the traditional market) and cultural influence. We just had the movie "Mario Brothers" and it was a hit. The movie sells toys thus bringing more revenue to the company.

In the end, the DMCA strikes cost Nintendo's money with little return.

To quote Zygmunt Bauman:

We are – most of us – free to enjoy our freedom, but unfree to avoid the consequences of that enjoyment. To tackle the consequences, we are bound to turn to the self-same market of commodified goods, services and ideas (thus also, presumably, of counsels and therapies), which is the major production plant of ambivalence and its zealous and resourceful supplier. The market keeps ambivalence alive, and ambivalence keeps the market alive. From this closed circle there is no obvious exit. But since the times of the Gordian knot every close circle breeds the temptation to cut and the demand for sharp knives...

AI can kill information (lemmy.eco.br)
 

Let's take an example.

We know that searching stuff on Google got worse, but imagine if AI replaced it completely. Searching the web would be something like making prompts to a chatbot, a complete black box of information. AI could make sure that you don't get conflicting views on state policies or acess to copyrighted materials...

Life's a piece of shit 
When you look at it 
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true 
You'll see it's all a show 
Keep 'em laughin' as you go 
Just remember that the last laugh is on you 
And

Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the right side of life
What Happens If an Asteroid Heads for Earth? in c/technology@lemmy.world

And in 2029, a 340-meter asteroid called Apophis—after the Egyptian god of chaos and darkness—will pass within 32,000 km of Earth, which is closer than some geosynchronous satellites. This will happen on 13 April 2029—Friday the 13th, that is.

We're cooked

Duolingo is not about learning a language. It's about giving you the illusion of learning a language.

WordReference on Kindle? (lemmy.eco.br)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.eco.br/post/12414290

Wordreference is the best online dictionary out there, it's free and works very well with multiple languages. Recently I saw this post on their forum dictionary for kindle devices , and its an old post (2011).

The idea was to "compile" wordreference - let's say english - dictionary into a .mobi file and put it in kindle so you could use it offline as your kindle dictionary.

Does anyone know how to do that? Or is there already a solution to this out there?

It would be amazing to use wordreference offline on kindle as a tool to learn other languages.
