- Comment on Klarna’s AI replaced 700 workers — Now the fintech CEO wants humans back after $40B fall 9 hours ago:
No need to bother, reddit is already full of entire threads of GPT posts, the megacorps are killing their own product for us.
- Comment on The first weekly What Are You Playing? thread! 10 hours ago:
Bit of warframe, a lot of deeprock and some stellaris when I have that much free time.
- Comment on Microsoft announces new Windows changes in response to the EU's (DMA) Digital Markets Act for EEA users, including Edge not prompting users to set it as the default unless opened 10 hours ago:
I love mint on my old laptop (which I’m using right now) I just wish it was more compatable with newer hardware as neither it nor ubuntu work properly on my new desktop build so I’m stuck on ghost spectre instead.
- Comment on public services of an entire german state switches from Microsoft to open source (Libreoffice, Linux, Nextcloud, Thunderbird) 1 day ago:
Plus government computers are always old as shit so Linux should install nice and easy, give em mint for that windows like UI.
- Comment on New fuel cell could enable electric aviation 2 days ago:
iirc the issue with Hydrogen is that it has very high energy/mass but incredibly low density to the point that the fuel tank to contain a reasonable amount of hydrogen (say comparable to hydrocarbons) is even more prohibitive than battery weight.
- Comment on If AI was going to advance exponentially I'd of expected it to take off by now. 3 days ago:
Iirc there are mathematical reason why AI can’t actually become exponentially more intelligent? There are hard limits on how much work (in the sense of information processing) can be done by a given piece of hardware and we’re already pretty close to that theoretical limit. For an AI to go singulaity we would have to build it with enough initial intelligence that it could aquire both the resources and information with which to improve itself and start the exponential cycle.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 5 days ago:
TLDR: UE5 can be optimized but Unreal also turned it into a bit of a tech demo for their new tech some of which can be counter productive at times.
- Comment on Developer Builds Tool That Scrapes YouTube Comments, Uses AI to Predict Where Users Live 6 days ago:
Except you don’t need personal information, look at supermarket data, even when ‘anonymized’ it can predict pregnancy and even a rough geographic location based on what items are available at various locations/times as well as corelating your purchases with the weather.
- Comment on Some Reddit users just love to disagree, new AI-powered troll-spotting algorithm finds 2 weeks ago:
It doesn’t even sound like a reasonable study to undertake honestly, how many times do you comment on something just to say you agree? Mostly people just read it and move on, maybe upvote.
- Comment on Tesla Reportedly Has $800 Million Worth of Cybertrucks That Nobody Wants 3 weeks ago:
So your saying one will be able to avoid ICE by simply escaping on days when its raining?
- Comment on Are We All Becoming More Hostile Online? 3 weeks ago:
Agreed, the toxic assholes have been here since the beginning, everyone else is just finally pushing back.
- Comment on Palworld confirms ‘disappointing’ game changes forced by Pokémon lawsuit 3 weeks ago:
Any trademarks they need because Nintendo have allegedly been filing new patents mid-lawsuit in order to justify suing palworld.
- Comment on Tesla bait-and-switch: Cybertruck owners won't get Autosteer feature they paid for 3 weeks ago:
Cultural difference perhaps? I’ve always known it to be more specific, still roughly that but usually the replacement item is visually very similar and the victim accepts it after previously being shown a similar but non-shitty version. Like those black friday TVs you get in the US that look just like the brand name ones people expect them to be but are actually shittier electronics shoved into the same casings.
- Comment on Tesla bait-and-switch: Cybertruck owners won't get Autosteer feature they paid for 3 weeks ago:
Yes but bait and switch has less negative connotations and implies some cleverness on the part of the fraduster. Nothing even remotely clever was done here, Tesla made a deal and then flat out broke it Trump Style.
- Comment on Tesla bait-and-switch: Cybertruck owners won't get Autosteer feature they paid for 3 weeks ago:
‘bait-and-switch’ They’ll really call it anything but fraud huh.
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 4 weeks ago:
human-level? Have these people used chat GPT?
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 4 weeks ago:
Probably because stopping to self analyze your decisions is a lot less effective than just running away from that lion over there.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Aren’t like half of those bullet points positives? Also in addition to what you said once you got a tree you got a tree, those tanks need constant maintenence and cycling which I doubt anyone is going to bother with for more than a year after installing them.
- Comment on The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN Business 4 weeks ago:
I dunno I can see it being done, go in first with a drone and blind the cameras one by one (not hard to rig it up with spray paint) then go in and grab the goods, pick an isolated section of the route so you’re gone by the time anyone comes looking.
I for one predict a glorious era of road pirates.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 4 weeks ago:
Final Fantasy 7 has a lot of mini versions of this moment because the level art is rarely distinguished from the actual terrain you can interact with so sometimes you kinda get stuck until you realise that this time that little ramp is actually something your supposed to walk up rather than un-interactable scenery like all those previous times.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 - State of Play Deep Dive | PS5 Games 4 weeks ago:
There seems to be a lot more customization than in previous games so they’re probably going for a bit of a blank slate feel.
- Comment on The US is Collapsing Like the USSR – So What Comes Next 5 weeks ago:
iirc it was kinda hinted that maybe all the poor people got deported or something leaving the rich to die? I vaguely recall them mentioning something about ships in the last one where they found the rich people condos.
- Comment on Cities Skylines 2, Kerbal Space 2, Planet Coaster 2, Frostpunk 2... What Went Wrong? 5 weeks ago:
KSP1 also had 0 OG devs by the end so KSP2 was sort of doomed from the start.
- Comment on Duolingo will replace contract workers with AI | The Verge 5 weeks ago:
The gameification part was good, it made it easier to keep up the habbit, though I recently got locked out for no apparent reason so apparently they just outright want to fail? Any good free alternatives? (I wasn’t using the paid version)
- Comment on The FTC cracks down on an AI content detector that promised 98% accuracy but was only right 53% of the time. 5 weeks ago:
Exactly, AI by definition cannot detect AI generated content because if it knew where the mistakes were it wouldn’t make them.
- Comment on EU fines Apple $568m for deterring third-party payment methods on App Store 5 weeks ago:
It’s weird because steam isn’t even that amazing at what it does and even some of the features I like can be tempremental or downright buggy at times.
- Comment on AI Energy Demand Can Keep Fossil Fuels Alive, Tech Backers Promise World’s Two Biggest Oil Producers 1 month ago:
I hate how we let them re-name it distruption, we should go back calling it what it is. Using their vast wealth to comit blatant market manipulation using anti-competative practices.
- Comment on It’s game over for people if AI gains legal personhood 1 month ago:
Aaaand the winner of the election is the guy who was rich enough to afford the most AI to vote for him with 99.9999% of the 15 trillion votes cast.
- Comment on Heat pumps to be sold ‘smart-ready’ in plans to save households money 1 month ago:
We also have an issue that much of our housing stock is really old and actually relies on leaks for propper air circulation, properly insulating these houses leads to damp and mold problems as OP mentioned. Huge swaths of housing in the UK are just fundementally unfit for purpose.
- Comment on The Most Printable 3D Printer Yet 1 month ago:
I find the grey goo discussion in the comments funny, fortunately you can’t actually break molecular bonds that quickly without releasing an enormous quantity of heat.
