Main argument nung sa writer's strike is that writers are not getting their rightful share of the profit. Moreso with the widespread plan to adopt AI to further reduce the perceived costs on hiring actual writers. Writers want AI out of the production. It's affecting you now, but it's going to make everything shitty in the next coming years if it's not opposed. That includes the need to hire ghost writers.

My Globe@Home router is just a generic 4G CPE they labelled as Streamwatch. But the 5G router/model I tested is called China Unicom 5G CPE VN007 which costs around 9K on almost every Shopee/Lazada store. I was also recommended a HUAWEI 5G CPE Pro 2 - Router it seems to be pricier and it's harder to discern if the seller is legit. But yeah, most of them tend to be really expensive.
And for the right reasons. The only ones that could be negatively affected are the other support jobs related to Hollywood productions.
Yund DITO SIM na pinahiram sakin prepaid. Pero yung sa site nila meron 990PHP/200GB data cap, and 1490PHP/Unli data. Yung router na nasa DITO site same dun sa pinahiram sakin pero open-line.
As for my Globe@Home plan, it's just a 999PHP/120GB data cap that's no longer being offered by Globe. Generally hindi ko naman nauubos yung 120GB so I have no real incentive to get a better plan at a higher price. Medyo wary din ako sa DITO kasi yung nagpahiram hindi rin sure sa coverage and hindi kami pareho ng experience sa bandwidth performance. It may have to do with saturation sa area and range limits ng 5G.
I've been using Globe@Home fixed wireless for my home internet since the height of the pandemic. It was serviceable, with bandwidth ranging from 5Mbps to 10Mbps. Enough for browsing, Youtube/Netflix, remote work, and the occasional large downloads.
But last night I got to test a 5G router with a DITO SIM and I was getting up to 600Mbps download in my area. I also tried my own Globe@Home SIM with the 5G router and surprisingly got a 5G signal as well, albeit at 40Mbps download.
Now I'm mulling if I should ditch the Globe account over a DITO account (with a plan that offers the same 5G router I tested) or if I should just go with my original plan to buy an open-line 5G router. I'm still leaning towards the latter, but there's not a lot of choices for a good 5G router and they're hella expensive.
Enjoying video calls? A Filipino made it possible
Medyo overblown yung title. The patent is basically utilizing two existing technologies (TV and telephone). The novel part may be the method to combine the TV and telephone signals, transmit the combined signals to a data line, and separate the signals to feed them to the other party's TV/telephone. It's also misleading how the article implied that AT&T followed suit after Zara made the patent; as if AT&T didn't have their own development team.
Lastly, a quick look at Wikipedia gave me a lead on how the 1930's Germany post office had a working video-telephone system. But it's basically a CCTV and a telephone placed on the same room. If I'm understanding it right, the former uses a dedicated coax cable that can only be run between the two remote locations, while the telephone system is basically what's available at the time.
You're going to need to sign up to another instance that's still federated with my instance.
It's unfortunate that lemmy.world continues to experience various issues in the past week. But the up side of it is that all the other instances could benefit from the fixes.
On a related note, I've been using Sync and old.reddit for so long now that I didn't realize how different new.reddit is from before they started implementing the new UI. It's using the same topics paradigm (ala hashtags) that makes the official app a mess to use. I've only used it for some mod actions that were not available at old.reddit.
On the other hand, below grade construction doesn't have the same issues as at grade/above grade construction. Securing land is mostly just an issue with station locations.
I have it enabled here in lemmy.world. It doesn't work the same way as most sites where you're provided a QR code or a setup key. It's just a link which needs to be opened directly with a 2fa app. I tried setting it up on my phone and it automatically added the site to my 2fa app.
Afaik, Pia did an AMA years back.
They seem to really want to double down on AI. They apparently even thought that they should be allowed to scan filming extras and use their likeness for current and future projects, all for one day's pay.
