- Comment on Advanced OpenAI models hallucinate more than older versions, internal report finds 15 hours ago:
My point is that the rate of improvement is slowing down. Also, its capabilities are often overblown. Often the surface it does something amazing, but then flaws are pointed out by those who have a better understanding of the subject matter, then those flaws are excused with fluff words like “hallucinations”.
- Comment on Advanced OpenAI models hallucinate more than older versions, internal report finds 15 hours ago:
The assumption here is that the AI will improve. Under the current approach to AI, that might not be the case, since it could be hitting its limitations and this article may be pointing out a symptom of those limitations.
- Comment on 'Oh god': There's a buried Steam help page that shows how much money you've ever spent on the platform, and you may not want to know 1 week ago:
Seems some are confusing the third party estimator with the official page. This is the official page: help.steampowered.com/en/…/AccountSpend
- Comment on Crypto is now as stable as the US economy! 1 week ago:
It’s even moving along with the ups and downs of the stock market lately. It’s almost as if the same rat bastards got control of both.

It’s still important to point out and put on the public record.

Grains work well for me, but yeah, fats, as long as it’s not too much, generally work out better for me than raw fruits and veggies on an empty stomach.
- Comment on Nice try 2 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t want to rely on antacids since taking those regularly can cause problems. I generally eat something like bread or nuts and then I’m all set to take on fruits. Some fruits are better than others, since I can eat bananas on an empty stomach just fine. Either way it’s nothing major, usually mild discomfort if I eat apples on an empty stomach but maybe I’m eating too many or they’re too sour or something.
- Comment on Microsoft has created an AI-generated version of Quake 2 weeks ago:
I tried playing it but it’s so incoherent (walls becoming paths, dead enemies randomly coming back to life, health pickups that do nothing, etc) that I’m not even sure this counts as a game. Typically a game has rules so that you can set how you play according to those rules. This is just poorly-generated trash, which I guess fits in with the rest of the hot garbage AI we’ve currently got.
- Comment on Nice try 2 weeks ago:
That looks good, but fruit on an empty stomach doesn’t generally work well with me.
- Comment on Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential) 3 weeks ago:
I was surprised to see that both left and right joycons have the mouse functionality. Was cool to see it in action with the wheelchair basketball game.

What about a flying machine?
- Comment on Horses ARE Forever 3 weeks ago:
It doesn’t make sense to use automobiles. Imagine having to build out paved roads everywhere and also set up stations along these roads to refuel. Just completely impractical.
- Comment on In the latest Windows 11 preview build, Microsoft removed the “bypassnro” command, which let users skip signing into a Microsoft Account when installing Windows. 3 weeks ago:
Noooooo!!! You can’t just force us to use a Microsoft account!!! You have to allow us to use the bypasserino!!! Noooooooo!!!

They’re totally pissing.
- Comment on Israel publicly announces genocidal intent 4 weeks ago:
“return the hostages and kick out Hamas, and new options will open for you–including relocation to other parts of the world for those who choose. The alternative is destruction and total devastation.”
So the choice is either ethnic cleansing with some genocide or ethnic cleansing with total genocide. This is completely unacceptable, yet there are those who argue that we must accept it and merely choose “the lesser of two evils” with the reason being that it could be worse. However, this only emboldens the evil and they will continue driving to make things worse and worse anyway.

- Comment on Alibaba doubles down on RISC-V architecture with a new secretive 'server-grade' chip that will put AMD and Intel on alert 1 month ago:
I’m excited to see more competition! I also like how RISC-V is based on open source work which reduces startup costs and opens up greater collaboration. We’ve all benefited greatly from open source software, so it would be nice to see more of that on the hardware side as well. I’ll be shocked if the chip actually competes on performance, though it may be more of a cost-for-performance deal like ARM. Speaking of which, I wonder how it’ll compare with ARM server processors as well.

This isn’t extensive, but when looking up products on amazon through camelcamelcamel that existed in 2023 and now, the trend matches up:

SSDs were even cheaper until memory manufacturers decided it was getting too cheap: tomshardware.com/…/ssd-prices-predicted-to-skyroc…
They predicted prices would go higher and, through the magic of intentionally constricting supply, it happened. Prices still have not dropped back down to where they were in 2023.

It’d be a decent deal now, but this launches in 2027, by which point this would be underwhelming.

- Comment on Norway more than doubles Ukraine aid to $7.8 billion in 2025 1 month ago:
What makes the comment weak and trumpish? They bring up a good point in that Europe has delayed this level of support until now. Why did they wait so long on something so important when that level of support earlier on could’ve prevented Russia from daring to push further? Is that not the purpose of having Ukraine join NATO, to give a security guarantee that would stop Russia from even thinking of invading in the future? Yes, the support now is good, but we have to look at the situation critically to understand how we can do better in the future.
