Thanks, I had deleted the app from all my devices but not deleted the account. I have deleted my account now too.

I really like this setup:

iPad + Korg microKEY-37 + KORG Gadget 3 + all a bunch of KORG apps

No subscriptions. Keyboard is wireless but no noticeable latency. In my workflow I pretty much never need more keys but if I do I just use a MIDI adapter and plug a larger keyboard.

KORG apps go on 50% sale several times every year.

iPad Pro (4th generation) 2020 here. Life was good then updated OS with liquid glass. Big mistake.

I still remember using Palm OS for the first time and having my little mind blown away because there was no save buttons (at least in the version and apps I was using). You edited a document and that's it, it was saved. Like writing on paper.

Nowadays a lot of applications behave like this but back then it was a very different from everything I had ever used.

PalmOS designers & engs (along with MS WebTV / Danger Sidekick folks) ended up working on early Android (Astro Boy / Bender / Petit Four etc), and there's a lot of parallels between the two.

I have been playing 0ad, single player, medium/hard difficulty, round-robing all maps, for years now. Great game. I have to try mods one of these days.

I'm deep in the Gridfinity rabbit hole but this seems a good compromise since my 3d printer broke.

This made me think about another contrast, Hayao Miyazaki. His characters ("heroes" or "villains"), usually are more morally complex and nuanced than the ones you would find in the works I typically see depicted in Hollywood. They are not just good or evil. You may not agree with their actions, but you understand the logic of it.

Ironically, Ghibli's adaptation of A Wizard of Earthsea (written by Le Guin, an American author) flopped in part because Miyazaki made it much more about heroes versus villains than the original story.

That’s because the adaptation is by Gorō Miyazaki and not Hayao Miyazaki.

Let the enshittification begin.

Then you move to the paid plan, then they move ads to the paid plan, then you move to the premium-extra plan, etc.

Not "ads" in the traditional sense but no one can tell me they won't use it to steer people toward whoever is paying their bills.

What would be the metric by which they bill for it?

Interesting, looking at it from that side. How does it work with traditional real world ads, billboards for example. I'd expect them to have a similar challenge. Not whether the ad was put in front of people, but the high level impact of the whole campaign.

How would advertisers know whether OpenAI even applied the ad to the paid for number of people's conversations, I don't know.

This was posted in Show HN today [0]. Looks like queries just query ChatGPT themselves for whatever terms they want to track and then correlate revenue with that. But ChatGPT will probably do it like affiliate links, where there is a tracking parameter or cookie that identifies that it came from ChatGPT.
