Wonderful! Let’s go tell it lies.
Everyone should be lying to LLM’s, but the way. Do it often. Do it daily. Make them even more useless.
- Comment on Age checks creep into Linux as systemd gets a DOB field 2 weeks ago:
I wonder if it was put in for the same reason CA passed a self-reporting law recently. I wonder if it’s an attempt to repel through malicious compliance far worse age verification that’s forced at a federal (US) level.
- Comment on William Shatner And ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ Actors React To News Of Series Ending 2 weeks ago:
I actually really liked the first few episodes. Not amazing, but solid.
It’s the ones that come after that were a bit disappointing.
- Comment on William Shatner And ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ Actors React To News Of Series Ending 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been watching them, and most are pretty bad… I don’t hate them, but like, I get it. Great production value, but the stories are weak and rather trite.
- Comment on Why aren't we doing this 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, fuck busses. Bats are way more eco friendly.
- Comment on The difference is real 2 weeks ago:
Why the fuck is Obama on X? I fucking hate this timeline and the stupid fucking people living in it.
- Comment on The world if USA just stopped fucking with other countries for no reason at all 2 weeks ago:
Where on earth are you getting 40% from? That’s an insanely high statistic.
Only around 32% of elligable voters voted Trump in 2024.
His approval rating has dramatically nose-dived since then.
- Comment on YSK: Israel is ethnically cleansing Lebanon 2 weeks ago:
This is a gross generalization. It’s like aliens looking down on earth and saying “we really have to do something about these humans.”
Like, sure. We, as a species might have earned that… But, is it all humans?
The right shift in power across nations could solve this. It starts with people acknowledging that the real issue is rogue governments. Right now in the United States, our government is rogue.
Random people born in Russia don’t want to kill Ukrainians any more than every American wants to kill random people in the Middle East. Our humanity is important, and where you’re born and live doesn’t dictate your loyalty to empowered dictators.
The movement that needs to happen is one where the people rise up in all nations, and unite. It starts with language. America doesn’t need to be destroyed any more than Russia, but their governments require radical changes.

I don’t know what people are talking about here, but Trump is an evil asshole and this will never work.

When the great uprising comes, I’m going to enjoy destroying these.
- Comment on journalist? what is your purpose? 3 weeks ago:
Why find Banksy, a guy doing good? Why not do more admire Epstein?
- Comment on covid.gov redirects to lab leak conspiracy insanity 3 weeks ago:
Indeed. We’re all bad.
This worked great after world War 1. Certain German people used that shame for only good, right?
History repeats itself… Humans never learn. Idiots create idiots who empower hateful idiots. I really fucking hate this species sometimes.
- Comment on covid.gov redirects to lab leak conspiracy insanity 3 weeks ago:
It’s been a hard existence here, but it’s posts like this that make me realize nobody cares about any of the people fighting here.
Thank you for that. We’re all bad, right? Fuck us all. Burn our entire country down, with all of us in it. Because we don’t matter, I suppose.
The fascists in charge are cruel, sure… But it’s the fascists like you that aren’t in this country that really drive things home.

- Comment on Clankers 🔪🔪🔪 4 weeks ago:
This is the fucking dumbest thing I’ve read all year.
And I’ve read a lot of quotes from Trump.
You’re thing your said here… It’s worse than all the Trump quotes. I’ll leave that one to marinate.

Are you fucking for real? No… Really. Are you an LLM?

Working class people already know this. Who is this news for? Who is clutching their pearls right now?
- Comment on Datacenters are becoming a target in warfare for the first time 4 weeks ago:
Surprised? No. But that’s a lovely thought since most data centers have a net-negative value to people.
- Comment on Datacenters are becoming a target in warfare for the first time 4 weeks ago:
It’s wild. Most people don’t want these in their cities, which is why most people don’t even know they are being installed.
Like, fuck these goddamn corpos fucking up our bills so they can make even more money. Fuck data centers.
- Comment on Datacenters are becoming a target in warfare for the first time 4 weeks ago:
I can’t believe I had to scroll this far down for this…
Like, the data centers. The fucking reason my power bill doubled this year? The ones propping up LLM’s that are actively stealing jobs from humans?
They want to attack those?
Okay. Is there a downside to this?
- Comment on System76 tries to talk Colorado down over OS age checks 4 weeks ago:
It’s a gray area. If you have nothing to “protect the kids”, the feds might force it on a “non-compliant” state right now considering the fascism permeating our highest governments.
We’re starting to see desperate legislation more and more often. As a resident of CA, we had to vote FOR gerrymandering recently. It was disgusting, but it was direly needed to preserve democracy in the US.
- Comment on US state laws push age checks into the operating system 4 weeks ago:
You should really read up on the law. That’s just my opinion, though.
- Comment on US state laws push age checks into the operating system 4 weeks ago:
This specific article opens with the California bill being mentioned:
“The top line of California’s Assembly Bill No. 1043 says: “AB 1043, Wicks. Age verification signals: software applications and online services.” It was approved last October, but it’s hit the headlines this week. In brief:”
- Comment on US state laws push age checks into the operating system 4 weeks ago:
I’m so sick of hearing about this, and seeing people who don’t want to read get upset.
This is preemptively combating future federal crackdown by allowing Californians to TELL THE OS ANY BIRTH DATE THEY Want. No ID, no pictures of faces.

My power bill has literally doubled in one year. It’s largely this guy’s fault.
Fuck AI.
