Cloudflare already ruined the web way before AI was even a thing.
- Comment on Cloudflare CEO warns AI and zero-click internet are killing the web's business model 22 hours ago:
You mean product that literally makes web unusable for many and tracks your every single step with extremely invasive fingerprinting techniques? That product?
- Comment on [Opinion] Unending ransomware attacks are a symptom, not the sickness 1 day ago:
Sometimes I wonder what’s true economic damage here from lack of proper security practices. This shit cascades to millions of other problems from financing terrorists to leaking private data. Don’t even know how this could ever be measured but my guess would be that it’s very substantial.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 3 days ago:
Without copyright there would be no need for copyleft. Its right there in the name.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 3 days ago:
You can already just pirate anything. In fact, downloading copyrighted content is not illegal in most countries just distributing is.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 3 days ago:
Exactly I’m a data engineer and people have no clue what they’re talking about in this thread.
If we require copyright for transformative work that would mean trillions lost in growth - its just something that cant even happen no matter how hard we’d want it. Most people are not even aware of the implications such copyright overreach would have.
So do you target AI training explicitly? How can that he even enforced? Is my review sentiment evaluation machine illegal now? What if I RAG copyrighted content in am I in jail now? How could this possible be ever enforced? It’s so stupid.
This issue is dominated by tech illiterate who jusy want to be angry at corporations but instead of doing something about it they fall for copyright propaganda.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 3 days ago:
Yes.
- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 3 days ago:
Good, fuck copyright these counts have enough money already.
- Comment on Nintendo reserves the right to brick your console following "unauthorised use", in bid to prevent piracy 3 days ago:
Apparently Torzo exists already!
- Comment on Palworld confirms ‘disappointing’ game changes forced by Pokémon lawsuit 5 days ago:
Sure but I don’t see any evidence of Nintendo’s decline. The truth is that gamers are incredibly spineless and will continue to bootlick corporate boot unless they put “something woke in the game” at which point they’ll leave a review somewhere and still clock in 300 hours if entertained enough.
- Comment on Palworld confirms ‘disappointing’ game changes forced by Pokémon lawsuit 5 days ago:
Where is that? Cause Switch 2 pre orders are sold out.
- Comment on Palworld confirms ‘disappointing’ game changes forced by Pokémon lawsuit 5 days ago:
This is why I’ll never feel sorry for Nintendo - karma is long overdue for this company. In fact, I’ll download a switch emualtor right now just to spite this.
- Comment on On the prospect of an $80-$90 GTA 6, former PlayStation boss says 'it's an impossible equation' for big-budget studios to keep their prices down 5 days ago:
Lmao who would believe that gta 6 is not going to make absolute bank? They could give it away for free and still make more money that they could ever spend.
- Comment on Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised range 5 days ago:
It definitely seems an equivalent of putting fingers into your ears and ignoring the issue.
Vaporware and Tesla - name a more iconic duo.
It’s kinda troubling that we’re returning to reality where vaporware is such a legitimate strategy with no down sides.
- Comment on Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style? 5 days ago:
Old graphics sure but mechanically Pokémon games kinda suck, especially the older ones. I’ll be honest I love the collection and monster part of the game but everything else is simply bad and I usually give up after 10 hours. It’s such a pointless slog.
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 1 week ago:
The existence of religion in our society basically means that we can’t go anywhere but up with AI.
Just the fact that we still have outfits forced on people or putting hands on religious texts as some sort of indicator of truthfulness is so ridiculous that any alternative sounds less silly.
- Comment on Why I don't use AI in 2025 1 week ago:
I never thought I’d see the web fight for copyright.
For me it seems like all AI issues boil down to “I don’t like stions” which is fine but its kinda delusional to pretend it’s something else be it silly energy use complaints or hypocritical copyright nonsense.
- Comment on The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN Business 1 week ago:
There’s definitely direct economic damage here too beyond just repairs. It’s sniffles business growth because the infrastructure is unreliable.
- Comment on Kawasaki is developing a robot to be ridden like a horse - Asia Times 1 week ago:
If airplane wings could flap they absolutely would. Our biological equivalent is objectively better than any mechanical tech we have right now. It’s really hard to beat millions of years of evolution.
You can very easily smooth out passenger’s position same way a horse’s head feels comfortable on top of a horse.
- Comment on Kawasaki is developing a robot to be ridden like a horse - Asia Times 1 week ago:
Why not? Our legs are already better than any wheel could ever get. Why not apply this to robots given they can be good enough
- Comment on The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN Business 1 week ago:
Nah no one’s going to bother with new tech for 1% - that’s crazy.
- Comment on The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN Business 1 week ago:
No one’s claiming that. Trucks can still handle the last mile just like they do it with container ships.
Im no logistics expert byt ship -> train -> semi sounds like a great infrastructure design especially now as the container is interchangeable between all of these mediums.
- Comment on The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN Business 1 week ago:
Bet that semi trucks are more expensive due to road damage and congestion alone.
- Comment on The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN Business 1 week ago:
But american freight trains are laughably bad too
- Comment on Tesla Board Opened Search for a CEO to Succeed Elon Musk 1 week ago:
It really shows how good traditional vehicle manufacturers actually are and the whole worth of Tesla is basically a meme stock. Toyota, Mazda etc are still making cars that run almost new 10 years later.
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 1 week ago:
Its much more approachable and not nearly as frustrating or difficult as those. We finished the game while being stoned if that tells you anything lol
- Comment on V Rising Update 1.1 - Invaders of Oakveil is Out Now! 1 week ago:
I feel weirdly releived tbh. My server is pretty old and I was dreading of trying to get back and remember everything or feeling bad for restarting but now the choice has been made for me lol
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 1 week ago:
Ship of Fools is -60% on steam right now and I can’t recommend this game enough. It’s a rogue lite where you both need to protect a ship from monsters maning the cannons and it’s an absolute blast! It has good progression and it’s intense but not in annoying sort of way.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO says up to 30% of the company's code was written by AI | TechCrunch 1 week ago:
They include tab complete of github copilot which is often as much as a single dot. Same thing they’ve done with all github copilot stats.
- Comment on Report: Apple CEO “cares about nothing else” Than Building Breakout AR Glasses Before Meta 2 weeks ago:
There’s a big piracy scene on Quest so if you really put in the effort you’re not giving these evil assholes much but generally I agree. There’s so much entertainment and things to do that I can really wait a bit longer as VR is not going away.
