- Comment on Palantir CEO Alex Karp praises Saudi engineers and takes a swipe at Europe, saying it has 'given up' on AI 10 hours ago:
No, I’d doubt it. Its quite a robust system that has been trialed extensively on a use case by case basis. Its also not directly customer facing.
- Comment on Netflix will show generative AI ads midway through streams in 2026 1 day ago:
High seas baby!
There is surely a recognisable pattern here in which people leave because of this shit and to keep the flow of money going up they then have to further reduce quality by increasing ads.
I deleted my facebook a few weeks ago and signing in for the first time in years gave a look at what it became and it was unrecognisable.
- Comment on Palantir CEO Alex Karp praises Saudi engineers and takes a swipe at Europe, saying it has 'given up' on AI 1 day ago:
It will hit the average person in ways they cant see, my firm isnt replacing retirements because they can be filled by AI. What was once a vital role has been downgraded to the point where it can be completed by an AI, their manager now handles the back office parts and AI escalationz which given their nature will reduce overtime. In a business unit of ~40 people 7 have retired without issue and there are no plans to replace the rest as they go.

- Comment on Apple Reportedly Weighs iPhone Price Increase 2 days ago:
Yeah but I can buy something that 95% of the same for half the price. The added features are novelty, by the time they get to mid range there is actually use cases for the common man.

Anytime I consider making the jump, I make my peace with everything and then the price hits…no way

- Comment on YSK: The Guardian is one of the only newspapers in Australia and Britain to refuse all gambling ads 1 week ago:
Agreed, its a shame because they have great material in the midst of that noise. Their Ukraine coverage is unparralleled.

BBC wont back Theroux doc, fuck them genocide enablers.
I have the Guardian and Telegraph, I am let down constantly by all the “benefit sponge” headlines and paragraphs. So much bigger fish to fry.

- Comment on The Fitbit Sense line is cooked because it was too good for Google 1 week ago:
Garmin is good, their pay system was handy and I liked it not being google.
That said smartwatches are boring. They went the wrong direction.

Except being the default is not the default anymore. New android phones have to allow you to select from a whole host of browsers and search engines.
- Comment on Facebook Allegedly Detected When Teen Girls Deleted Selfies So It Could Serve Them Beauty Ads 1 week ago:
This has been a huge public viewpoint for decades. I think it was Banksy who had the quote about if you force me to view your ad by putting it in a public space then it is mine to do with a I please.
Businesses have to survive, but advertising is insidious and invasive. Could it be regulated? Sure.

“While we should be seeing a lite version at 30% the price”…? What am I missing?

- Comment on Why hasn't congress passed a law saying that you can only deport people *back to their own country*? 3 weeks ago:
The point being that the US would see fit to refuse to return someone to a particular country all the while torturing them in the same black site.
- Comment on Why hasn't congress passed a law saying that you can only deport people *back to their own country*? 3 weeks ago:
The fucking thought that Americans feel superior enough to not allow another country to take them…in this case from their extra judicial torture black site.
- Comment on Discord co-founder and CEO Jason Citron is stepping down 3 weeks ago:
Like a phone call? Group voice chats? I would have thought tis was built into consoles and services, seems odd that Twitch doesnt have this feature.
I have only ever seen it used as a terrible forum clone where discussion sucks and security is poor.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I might have to drive a few hours for work and it is always on android auto for podcasts, music and youtube though audio only for all of them.
Probably a lot pictures and such, I have to wipe my downloads a lot for memes.
