- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 month ago:
Just like with everything else that people make into a lifestyle or part of their identity. Most are cool, but there’s always a vocal minority of dillweeds that take it way too seriously or use it to judge others that aren’t part of their pack.

The future is HERE. If it laughs when you take your cock out, then it’s a 1:1 simulation
- Comment on I like this text. In which Lemmy community can I best share it ? Thanks. 1 month ago:
Salinger is a classic example of this. One of the most celebrated authors of all time. He really only wrote one full novel and then essentially disappeared from public view. Despite this I don’t think anyone would consider him a failed writer by any definition
- Comment on Tech brands are forcing AI into your gadgets—whether you asked for it or not 2 months ago:
At the time the cloud stuff was first being talked about, I worked a a large tech company (one of the top 10 largest). I remember being told by managers and above how important it was and how we should start thinking about how to integrate it into every facet of our products and workplace. The CEO railed on this as well, tying KPIs to it at all levels of the business. This company makes all kinds products in the realm of hardware and software. Everyone went absolutely apeshit integrating everywhere, including A LOT of places it didn’t belong

Are you complaining because the video was posted here or because it was made in the first place? Maybe this community doesn’t need it, but there are a lot of people out there with not much awareness of what’s happening in this realm.

No. No it will not. In fact, it may make it worse

Yeah, in the US it was ‘Faces of Death’ as well. I remember the advertisements. Never saw it, but I saw plenty of horrific shit on rotten.com as a teen

I did say “please.” 😉

Please just stop posting. I have you tagged because I’ve noticed a consistent trend of bad/trolly takes from you. Just stop. If you’re expressing your genuine opinions, that’s incredibly sad. If you’re just being an asshole, then fuck off
- Comment on The Thaumaturge just launched, seems interesting! 3 months ago:
Honestly, it doesn’t look very good in my opinion. If you’re on the fence, just skip it until it goes on sale in the winter
- Comment on Just 137 crypto miners use 2.3% of total U.S. power — government now requiring commercial miners to report energy consumption 4 months ago:
Wow. No kidding. I lost a very close friend who got obsessed with the “get rich quick” aspect of crypto, and these losers sound just like he did. Granted, there were a multitude of other reasons I stopped talking to him, but holy fuck
- Comment on Gel and lithium-ion tech could enable 1000-mile EV range on one charge 4 months ago:
Well, there’s a lot the article doesn’t address. I can say this with complete confidence, even as someone who hasn’t read the article
- Comment on Report: Apple is testing foldable iPhones, having the same problems as everyone else 4 months ago:
Same reason you can’t buy a new small pickup truck. They don’t make them because the mass market isn’t there

It looks like the automotive design equivalent of downs syndrome
- Comment on Sony facing $7.9 bln mass lawsuit over PlayStation Store prices 7 months ago:
Printed media as a broad product has been gradually going the way of the horse and buggy for 30 years. Not surprised at all that this persists
- Comment on YSK about the different “ways of knowing” 7 months ago:
I think you may be confusing what this is getting at. Did you read the paper that was linked?
- Comment on X runs 'timeline takeover' ad promoting anti-trans film 7 months ago:
The problem is, it’ll take forever to die. Just like Facebook. Most of the people who are aware, or even care about these kinds of problems are a small slice of the user base. Most will never hear about it because they don’t give a shit

Let’s just call it CS:GO. The GO is for glitchy optimization

I think he 100% believes that he’s just a humble genius trying to change the world. As he receives more and more criticism though, he’s going to use his tremendous power and wealth to lash out because he’s a fragile child. It’s already begun. He will hurt the world with his billions.

- Comment on X revokes paid blue check from United Auto Workers after strike called 9 months ago:
He’s going to age like crap. He went bald 10 years ago, but can afford the best wizardry to reverse that take a look at old pictures of him). Chances are he’s doing other things to stave off the appearance of old age. That shit only works for so long and then it all comes crashing down
