Wtf would I or anyone need a credit card on file with FaceBook??

The only users I could see that being a thing is business accounts for advertising.

Artificially inflate what market, exactly? I doubt there's a huge pile of sealed, mint, original iPhones anywhere. This is the first time in fifteen years I've heard of one being sold.

AI is good at getting the back-of-the-textbook answers, but like in most any other industry, the real world of tech doesn't give you textbook problems.

Any specific videos you recommend?

I'm sorry but I call bullshit. No sealed iPhone is worth close to that much.

"LCG Auctions is the nation’s premier auction house specializing in professionally graded toys and collectibles. "

Graded collectibles are a bubble at best and a fraud at worst. It's very lucrative for auction houses and grading companies to artifically inflate the market so they can take a cut of listings and gradings. Just like with graded retro games and coins before that. I wouldn't be surprised if the buyer was in bed with the auction house, the grading company, or both.

Karl Jobst explains it better.

It’s literally holding us back as a species. The ruling class of humanity doesn’t do any ruling or decision making anymore. They sit on their mountains of money and demand exponential growth and profits relentlessly and the world bends backwards to make them perceive they are effective slave drivers.

Shit, I'm barely in anyway. I haven't been on board with this shit since the days when myspace was the thing.

You realize Reddit is social media..right?

A user subscription to prevent them from allowing someone to impersonate the user.

Almost all humans can pass the mirror test.

I would bet my life savings that "most" people have never provided Facebook with a credit card number.

This is part of the inherent problem of running a business to make shareholders happy.

I put off learning how to do this until just last month because I thought it would be hard but it was actually really quick to learn. I followed this tutorial and it only took a few days to design my board having never done it before.

> the most important technological development of our time

It’s an early 1900s theory with a 1940s application using a 2020 level of data. It’s not much of a technological development beyond how much we could feed it. AI researchers in my department are kind of pissed that LLMs are getting this much attention because an astonishing number of humans are so dumb they can’t pass the mirror test.

Neat-o burrito!

I actually did get it to generate a random YouTube link that wasn’t dead. It had 4 views and it was some families vacation video from 2015.

However I should stress, it was a random chance after several tries of me asking. Trying to pull factual or useful information from this is a dumb idea at best and a harmful idea at worst

Anyone who's short on cash makes them blue verification ticks LOL I gotta start charging people for this too :)

I agree. Now lets talk 80% lowers and such

Lol but they should. Lazy tech experts not making life easier for the rest of us

I wouldn't be so sure. Most people already have credit cards on file with Facebook or have a Facebook wallet (or equivalent). So long as Zuck only bills them under $1/mo, few will argue about a 79¢ charge on their monthly statement. This would closely mirror pre-internet newspaper subscriptions, which Facebook basically is for most of the population anyway.

Facebook and the like can attempt such things because they have an essential monopoly. They've fully wormed their way into everything so that many people feel like it's an essential service.

Most services have to offer far better to get payment. And if payment is the only way to access the service, it's gonna be niche.

Too much pushing of payment on services like Facebook will disrupt it and just make it easier for a competitor to step in and take over.
