You’re thinking of the highest integer number, not the “number of numbers” - which is 256, from 0 to 255, and thus 256 possible users in a group chat.

Actually, it’s even.
41·5 days agoThis seems to work as a model for YouTubers and podcasters
No, it doesn’t. They’re still being paid by YouTube/Spotify a flat amount based on the number of views - which are being paid for by ads and premium subscriptions.
Which means: people pay (one way or another) first, consume the content later.
You people behave like you believe that artists got gathered up under threat of violence, put into these companies and are being forced to work there against their will…
Nobody is forcing you to consume any of the media you feel you need to pirate.
Just live beyond consumption. You can do that, you know?

If we start calling what’s currently there “ICE death camps” because 10 old people died across the whole country, people will get jaded, will start ignoring the cries for help as alarmist. And THEN the actual death camps will show up, but by that time nobody will be paying attention.
Exactly as it happened with Gaza.
Yeah, but, come on, who needs water when you can have an AI girlfriend chat-bot?
