• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox Co-founder Says Microsoft is Quietly Sunsetting the Platform⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I once got a 2k camera + gear + extra (Sigma!) lenses for three fiddy. No Loch Ness monsters involved tho.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bacteria Frozen in Ancient Underground Ice Cave Found to be Resistant Against 10 Modern Antibiotics⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well fuck. Add another contender to the apocalypse bingo, why not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bill Gates Pulls Out of India AI Summit Amid Epstein Criticism⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing a quick pill won’t fix.

  Now, convincing your wife to take pills for YOUR illness, that’s another thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft's Notepad Got Pwned (They Added AI To It, So...)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nopepad now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft's Notepad Got Pwned (They Added AI To It, So...)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually think the young crowd at MS would resist this. This looks much more like a top-down decision from marketing overruling engineering.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Last month? Takes years in my case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unexpected dedication (and yes, it is filled with boobs)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “To Pa, who taught me to appreciate a good titty”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it theoretically possible Trump and ICE are killing a very large number of immigrants (like 25% of those detained) and no one knows?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not yet.

  Historically though extermination comes a while after mass incarceration. Much harder to do the latter when the public is aware of the former. It’s unfortunately inevitable at this rate though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DuckDuckGo poll says 90% responders don't want AI⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  First, its results are often simply wrong, so that’s no good. Second, the more people use the AI summaries, the easier it’ll be for the AI companies to subtly influence the results in their advantage. Think of advertising or propaganda.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DuckDuckGo poll says 90% responders don't want AI⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can set up any AI assistant that way with custom instructions. I always do, and I require it to clearly separate facts with sources from hearsay or opinion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Huang declares Israel Nvidia’s “second home” with record-breaking campus investment⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So now we have to assume that everyone using Nvidia hardware has an open backdoor for the Mossad. Very nice. Fucking lovely timeline.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MK Ultra 2: Electric Boogaloo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Might actually improve things somewhat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know why⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  +1 for Obsidian. Copy-paste to other pc = immediate access without setup. Plug & play. Also free.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There are only like 3,000 billionaires and they're not physically imposing people.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s only one in my country AFAIK and he’s not even from here, just registered here for tax purposes.

  Regardless, i would recognize him in the street. And I wouldn’t be the only one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ICE Wants to Go After Dissenters as well as Immigrants⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s going swimmingly I see

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China’s ‘artificial sun’ breaks nuclear fusion limit thought to be impossible⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It already has. The West doesn’t like to advertise that though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The cycle we are all living in⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  … fuck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3.5" floppy disks were peak tactile feedback in storage: easy to stick in, drives had a button to immediately eject them, big enough to get labels, thin enough that stacks didn't take too much space⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Haha holy shit it evolved!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3.5" floppy disks were peak tactile feedback in storage: easy to stick in, drives had a button to immediately eject them, big enough to get labels, thin enough that stacks didn't take too much space⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I liked the sound they made. People have been using them to make music for ages. Best is still imperial march played on 48 floppy drives (or thereabouts).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[REDACTED]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Cliff racers! Fetch st. Jiub!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11’s 2025 problems are getting impossible to ignore⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Consumers are what, less than 10% of MS’s revenue? Most of their income is from cloud (Azure, O365) so they can afford to treat their consumer customers like trash. They don’t give a shit about your 50-150 bucks for a win license because it’s peanuts to them.

  The only viable option for consumers is to massively ditch MS products altogether and migrate to alternatives, which used to be in short supply but luckily aren’t anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about Israel’s “Samson Option”: The Nuclear Target List that includes American and European cities…⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is (one of) the real reason the West always acquisces to Israel, although Israel will call it a fairy tale.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Now do Berserk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, 79, Rants Incoherently About Robots and AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s less that he personally learned anything and more that the Heritage Foundation did, he’s only following their playbook.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, 79, Rants Incoherently About Robots and AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The rhetoric that politicians are idiots and they don’t know what they’re doing is also damaging, because it makes people assume stupidity rather than malice.

  But it is malice. The incompetence is real, make no mistake, but malice is in fact the end goal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Explained: Why you can't move Windows 11 taskbar like Windows 10, according to Microsoft⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  People are fleeing into Linux & MacOS in droves. If this trend holds, Ms will lose majority in ~8 years.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything is awful because the people who went to business school figured out how to fuck us over as hard as possible.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  With private equity taking over every aspect of daily lives, this is only going to get much worse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Developer Accidentally Found CSAM in AI Data. Google Banned Him For It⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This was about sending a message: “stfu or suffer the consequences”. Hence, subsequent people who encounter similar will think twice about reporting anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. Pedestrian Deaths Up 77% Since 2009 & The Auto Industry Knew It Would Happen⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d love to see EU numbers side by side for a fair comparison.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Logically, this would mean the dildo makers are also invited.
