Excellent update video on YouTube revenue in the tech creator space: youtube.com/watch?v=GeCP-0nuzi…

Glad they are transparent about numbers. And provides some context, especially comparing the tech space to others around 7:30

in reply to Jeff Geerling

Ludwig the streamer has spoken quite a bit about revenue and such over the years. If anyone is curious about what a true top streamer makes.

@aethrvmn They make more than half their revenue from their merch/products, the other half is an interesting mix of sponsorships (25%ish total) and 'everything else'.

A lot of interesting details given, though only a few concrete numbers. Surprisingly, my channel seems to have a little higher RPM than theirs.

"generated by an LLM" would be a really useful bit of info for every link

#ScribesAndMakers If you've sold your work, have you made a net profit?

Apple barred from Google antitrust trial, putting $20 billion search deal on the line
Google's sizeable payments for Safari defaults could be ending.

in reply to Ars Technica

Given Apple's often day late and a dollar short to market style, should we expect a new default iAI search engine that's baked into Safari that all other search engines have to use as a backend now with a 30% cut on all purchases resulting from clicks?

I'm still trying to set mine up. I connected it to my wifi but now my watch keeps getting notifications from someone named Pete saying that we will strike the rebels at dawn?

At dawn? Why am I always the last to hear. Really guys. I made you a potato salad without raisins. And this is how you help????

I effing hate potato salad but I guessed you would include me in your plans. And I’m done ironing you cape. And Darth. You have a very small dick. Tiny. Tiktac size. I would say fuck you, but it’s hard with such a small dick.

in reply to Low Quality Facts

That reminds me. They still have yet to make a professional looking ladies (not girl's or women's sports-related) digital watch with multiple alarms, a character based digital read out, and a watch face that's not more than 3/8" inch thick and has a nicely styled, professional looking watch band made of high quality materials.

Thankfully, I'll probably never go on a job interview again anyway, but I did need a watch like that a few years back.

WIRED: Gut uploading

Your gut has a complex nervous system of its own—the enteric nervous system—that has huge and subtle effects on mood and cognition! Just digitizing your brain is inadequate, UPLOAD THE GUT FIRST! (The brain can come later.)

Liven up the group chats you're in by posting any or all of these images along with some bullshit bombastic emojis like 🇺🇸🤜🤛🇷🇺🧙‍♂️🥵🍆💦 then abruptly delete it all about 15 minutes later, saying something like "Wait, shit, is this the chat WITH reporters or WITHOUT reporters??"
