- Comment on brick layer printing strength analysis by my tech fun 1 day ago:
They troll patented it. It was already patented, the patent expired, then these dildos patented it again as an “improved technique” and in their application they pointed to a bunch of patents that have nothing to do with the brick layer method.

Sure, that’s what drugs are for. Why stop existing forever when you can stop existing for short periods of time from the comfort of your couch?

Is there an eject button on this hell ride?
Yep. Don’t do it though. No way to make things better if you check out early.

Drumpf
Fair enough, I’m not changing it though.
I think Google may still get split
Maybe, or maybe they’ll slip a bulging manilla envelope across the desk in the Oval Throne Room and an E.O will make everything go away. They might be forced in other countries to spin off regional business into separate corps, but with how international banking goes the money would certainly still hit the same accounts they always did, and marching orders will still be stamped by the same hands.

Look, we can go back and forth on this until the heat death of the universe. End of the day, we’re just two meat sack LLMs practicing a bit of conjecture and hypothesis. For all we know Google might accidentally create a minor black hole at HQ tomorrow and no longer be in anyone’s hair by lunchtime. I’ll agree to stop spitballing, I hope what you hope will happen happens, but from where I’m sitting we’re clearly in the Biff-Timeline, and I wouldn’t expect things to go well for anyone but the shareholders for the near future.

Agreed, just saying that they’re likely to avoid the FO stage of FAFO for a little while. And yeah, they could easily piss off the consumer enough to lose all their business, but to John T. Public, they’re still the GoTo for search, ad serve, email, navigation, in certain areas cell service/ISP. Without a strong governmental/judicial boot on their neck and gun to their head they’ll continue to monopolise a load of sectors, and will continue to pull money hand over fist for the foreseeable.

Give it a little while, all that’ll be left is LLM “AI agents” manipulating stock markets and DMing eachother “Line go UP! BRRRRRRRRRRRRR!”

something a little more adjusted to their near future
Sorry bud, with Herr Trumpf and Von Musk at the helm of the States, they’re in absolutely no danger of being slapped down a few pegs…let alone broken up and made humble. Need a functional government based on the adherence to the rule of law for that. And unfortunately what they have is D.O.G.E. “streamlining” the removal of “woke” at maximum “efficiency.”

I use voyager, so it’s more fun to tag em and watch their antics. Always a good laugh when there’s multiple Red tags frothing at eachother.

Since Herr Trumpf got elected for his second term, the line between MAGA and Tankie has been getting preeeeeetty thin. Seen a lot of “masks off” comments from the folk at .ml…

Well, bought and paid for, may as well use em! Just because the .ml and hexbear folk are near clownish in their frothing evangelism, doesn’t mean they’re wrong about everything…

This is the kid of discourse that should be coming from .ml folk more often. More minds changed by proper discussion than soapbox evangelism.
Well thought out, not intentionally antagonistic, no holier than thou finger wagging. Just facts laid out.
I applaud you.
