They’re a public company, they’re required by law to share financial info.

Do you perhaps have better data though?

Farmers would disagree

So how is this related?

He might’ve borrowed them from a library.

OpenAI could’ve trained on borrowed ebooks as well

lmao you’re so wrong on ads being more profitable than premium, especially on a per-user basis

According to this you can expect to make around $18/1000 views. That’s with 55% going to the creator and 45% to Google. Which means that Google makes around $14.5 per 1000 views.

Coincidentally, that’s also rougly the price of YouTube Premium. Are you telling me that you watch a thousand videos per month?

They might be allowing them to run the boxes for free, but the ISPs are saving money on bandwidth, too.

Get enough users for the ISP to care and they’ll work with you. Otherwise, you probably don’t have all that many users to begin with, so the overhead that maintaining and distributing these boxes would create wouldn’t be worth it anyway.

Yes, pure html pages are so much better and nicer to use!

Won’t work, can’t work.

There are companies which have insane revenues but tiny profits - let’s say manufacturing, where you need to pay a shitton for materials and workers, just to get a bit in return.

There are also companies where the main source of income is selling people’s time, say a consulting firm like McKinsey. Their income/revenue ratio is gonna be totally different from the first example.

I’m sure there are good ways to do it but this ain’t one of them.

That’s literally it though

Wouldn’t fit very well into something like a smartphone though

I had three cards from Kingston and SanDisk fail on me quite regularly while using the Pi.

M.2 / external storage is definitely the way to go

The water does get back into the ocean sooner or later, at least most of the time, see - rivers

So much better

Consider the alternative

Source for the revenue? Was only able to find figures in the $50-70bil range.

Profit $20-30bil.

Do you understand the case enough to make a more accurate judgement based on the relevant laws? I don’t, but believe that the court does.

Hm, might make sense to make a suggestion to the Commission, think it’s a good idea.

What exactly happens with the car after the initial hit?

Economy collapse -> people have less money -> people spend less money -> the corporation has less revenue -> :)

Huh, first time I’ve heard of it

There’s a reason the absolutely majority of businesses isn’t run like that, and it’s not because all people suck.

Two reasons, actually.

1. These people (who do not suck) often don’t really have what it takes to run a successful business. It’s a hard endeavor, especially in the beginning, and often if you don’t do the bare minimum, you die.

2. As you grow, having 10 clashing opinions is a paralyzing disaster for a company. Solution is to have a CEO/owner whatever, one voice to rule, but at that point, is it really that co-op you dream about?
