I mean. Elon Musk is exerting control of the platform too. Do you really want THAT shit in your cereal?

‘Pressured’? I hate these types of ‘highlighting’ in titles.

Uhm excuse me. If you can walk and carry groceries, clearly you are well 👏 enough 👏 to work 👏. I’m waiting on those TPP reports tetris11!
Them probably.
- Comment on Europe is looking for alternatives to US cloud providers 1 week ago:
You make fair points. I shouldn’t jest so carelessly. I don’t think it’s just Obama either though. Past administrations have all had hands toward what we have today.
That said; I do think you’re right really. Which also kinda makes me sad. I wish we had some real leadership, and actually hope 😅
We end up with a remixed reality of ‘King Ralph’ instead. Every day with Trump is eating away at whatever hope for some kind of check and balance to occur. It’s disheartening to feel so powerless in the face of such a FUBAR-POTUS clown show in the chainsaw wielding circus.
Anyway! Back to masking it 🎭

Wow. This guy just hates Obama lol.
- Comment on Attorney General Bonta Urgently Issues Consumer Alert for 23andMe Customers 1 week ago:
I also don’t trust these. There is very little regulation and protection. Case in point.
- Comment on Microsoft Tests 9 Ads & Only One Free Search Results On Same Page. 2 weeks ago:
I started using and paying for Kagi. Fuck Google and Microsoft.
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been using Plex many years. I abandoned it about 1-2 years ago when they began their enshittification journey. Now I see they are continuing to double down on being assholes.
They do not need any more resources to allow people to use what already exists. Most people run their own servers, and, they track all that by the way. Hence why people moved away from it.
Don’t give them your money. Let them rot. They fucked their user base who built them.
- Comment on Microsoft has pulled back on over a gigawatt of planned data center capacity, suggesting that they do not think there is a growth future in generative AI 4 weeks ago:
Yeah you echo my thoughts actually. That efficiency could be found in multiple areas, including deepseek. That perhaps too that some other political things may be a bit more uncertain.
- Comment on Meta claims torrenting pirated books isn’t illegal without proof of seeding 5 weeks ago:
Rules for thee and not for me, plus we PROFIT off of it to boot. But none of you guys can do that. Only for Richys.
- Comment on Are "Lifetime" Cloud Storage Plans scams? 1 month ago:
I just dumped pcloud. Also a surprising increase in fake pcloud emails trying desperately for me to click them. My email provider flags them over real pcloud ones. Still. Someone is spamming the shit out of me for that. I’d say pcloud isn’t worth sticking with.
- Comment on Tumblr to join fediverse 1 month ago:
Wow, way to try staying relevant I guess? They had a huge following and the porn was flowing during the good times. They blew their chance and now it’s a shell of itself. Fuck Tumblr.
- Comment on DeepSeek Proves It: Open Source is the Secret to Dominating Tech Markets (and Wall Street has it wrong). 1 month ago:
Yeah. Steam and I are getting older. Would be nice to adjust simple things like text size in the tool.

- Comment on Intel CEO Lost A 40% Discount For TSMC's Latest Chip Tech After Taiwan Remarks - Report 5 months ago:
Ever since Gelsinger took over the helm at Intel, the firm has focused on reestablishing its manufacturing technology leadership in the global chip manufacturing industry and setting up a contract manufacturing division to compete with TSMC. At the same time, Intel is also working with TSMC to outsource some of its production needs to the Taiwanese firm.
For fucks sake, he’s just into BDSM apparently. Wants to take it in the A while sucking the D. While of course pissing away billions the rest of the world could use for so many other things. Sigh.

- Comment on Radio station uses AI to interview the ghost of a dead Nobel-winner with 3 quirky zoomers who don't exist, seems baffled people don't like it 5 months ago:
Right?? What struggle did they face to come to terms with their sexuality or gender identity? It’s completely hollow.

These would be 20-year-old Emilia Nowa, “a journalism student [and] pop culture expert,” who is “passionately following the latest trends in the world of cinema, music and fashion”; 22-year-old Jakub Zieliński, who’s studying Acoustic Engineering at AGH (a Kraków university); and rounding out the three was 23-year-old Alex, a former psychology student who is “socially engaged, passionately discussing topics related to identity [and] queer culture.”
Do people even ‘bond’ with characters who are totally fake? How can you be into their life and story and everything, when none of it is real? It’s different when you’re watching a cartoon or something. It’s objectively not trying to pretend to be human. This above feels gross.

At first I thought that was part of the transcription too and my brain was trying to make some sense of it. And for some reason threw at me:
