- Comment on AI Energy Demand Can Keep Fossil Fuels Alive, Tech Backers Promise World’s Two Biggest Oil Producers 1 day 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 day 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 day 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 2 days 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.
- Comment on Advanced OpenAI models hallucinate more than older versions, internal report finds 2 days ago:
Oh we know the edit part, the problem is all the people in power trying to use it to replace jobs wholesale with no oversight or understanding that need a human to curate the output.
- Comment on Chinese robots ran against humans in the world’s first humanoid half-marathon. They lost by a mile 5 days ago:
Robots kind of suck compared to humans in terms of energy efficiency, sure a factory robot arm can crush you but if it had to run on the electricity equivelent of a bowl of bran flakes you could overpower it with one hand and not much effort. (barring an insane gear ratio which would make the thing incredibly slow)
- Comment on Toblerone dark chocolate bar discontinued in the UK - BBC News 5 days ago:
Last time I had a toblerone it tasted like hersheys, no idea what they did to them.
- Comment on British soldiers tune radio waves to fry drone swarms for pennies 5 days ago:
Nah, interesting point from Issac Arthur that the dumbest AI always wins assuming both are complex enough to do the job, the dumb one will have less processing delay to make each decision.
- Comment on This is real 5 days ago:
Nah in Dystopias the megacorps and evil governments tend to be intelligent and refined with armored limousines and some sense of style, even the glutenous autocrat steriotype tends to have a kind of weird refinement or at least be intelligent enough to not be ridiulous in public, or at least in the presence of a large number of guys with guns who can look meaningfully at anyone who might laugh.
What this is, is some weird idiocracy shit only without any of the redeeming characteristics of the people in that film.
- Comment on British soldiers tune radio waves to fry drone swarms for pennies 6 days ago:
So when can we start shipping them to Ukraine? Even from a selfish perspective its a perfect environment to field test this.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch 1 week ago:
Honestly at this point, poor people have no form of IP protection whatsoever, even before chat GPT it was commonplace for megacorps to just take other peoples work and profit from and now that LLMs are here its outright routine. So why keep that shit when it only benefits the rich.
- Comment on Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides” 1 week ago:
Those do however tend to be left wing which was the original meme before liberal became synonymous with the left in the US for some reason.
- Comment on Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides” 1 week ago:
BRB gotta buy another 64gig RAM kit.
- Comment on Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides” 1 week ago:
The phrase ‘reality has a left/liberal bias’ is just a meme stemming from how left leaning people usually at least attempt to base their world view on observable reality, and from various occurances over the years of far right figures complaining when reality (usually in the form of scientific research) doesn’t conform to their views or desires.
- Comment on Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how? 2 weeks ago:
People talk about getting filtered by fromsoft bosses but the goddamn driver tutorial was the hardest shit ever; especially since it used a lot of movie terms so if you weren’t really into american movies about cars half the stuff on the list was kind of gibberish.
- Comment on I was a British tourist trying to leave America. Then I was detained, shackled and sent to an immigration detention centre 2 weeks ago:
That’s not work? That’s common courtesy! You stay at someones house so you help out.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 2 weeks ago:
Jumped to linux for a test on an old laptop, currently on windows on my main PC but got parts on the way for a new build that’s going to be Linux.
- Comment on Reddit’s 50% Plunge Fails to Entice Dip Buyers as Growth Slows. 3 weeks ago:
Except AI companies are already using data from Internet Archive wholesale with paying them a cent.
- Comment on Chinese SSD Manufacturer UNIS Flash Memory Unveils World’s Fastest PCIe Gen5 SSDs, Featuring Speeds of Up To 14,900 MB/s 3 weeks ago:
Which is the ultimate goal I think, if your main storage is already as fast as RAM then you just don’t need RAM anymore and also can’t run out of memory in most cases since the whole program is functionally already loaded.
- Comment on Cloudflare turns AI against itself with endless maze of irrelevant facts 4 weeks ago:
The scary part is even humans don’t really have a proper escape mechanism for this kind of misinformation. Sure we can spot AI a lot of the time but there are also situations where we can’t and it kind of leaves us only trusting people we already knew before AI, and being more and more distrustful of information in general.
- Comment on The specter of a GTA 6 delay haunts the games industry: 'Some companies are going to tank' if they guess wrong, says analyst 4 weeks ago:
I feel like that one was also due to awful development practices, they had the whole scrapping the entire first 2 years of work thing due to a control freak lead dev who was ultimately releaved of his position (though not until after release iirc)
- Comment on Microsoft tells Windows 10 users to just trade in their PC for a newer one, because how hard can it be? 4 weeks ago:
Minus all the caveats like not being reliable on anything with an NVidia GPU or just hating your specific setup for no reason (I am salty, I’m going to keep trying anyway)
- Comment on Amazon customer receives fake Ryzen 7 9800X3D, turns out to be decade-old AMD CPU 1 month ago:
Its 100% a huge issue with Amazon, at this point pretty sure everyone knows how all the different sellers get lumped in together so you order from seller A and recieve a product from seller B because Amazon considers them the same thing. Means you can’t even be sure wether the seller you thought you purchased from is the one that scammed you; and means even buying from a companies official amazon listing isn’t protection.
- Comment on DOGE Plan to Push AI Across the US Federal Government is Wildly Dangerous 1 month ago:
Saw a picture of him without sunglasses recently and man has bloodshot ketamine addict eyes, the sunglasses are to hide that.
- Comment on Tesla sales crash continues in Europe, with Germany down 70% 1 month ago:
Does that still apply when the CEO is also Emperor of the United States?
- Comment on Why aren't all rooms holodecks? 1 month ago:
Hey now if we’re using the practical applications of the tech then the warp field emitters could be used to simply tear ships in half with as much or less energy than it takes to move the ship in the first place, or cause planetary cores to collapse into micro black holes, or create an inverted artifical event horizon around the ship making it physically impossible for weapons fire to pass through it because the direction of ‘through’ simply no longer exists.
- Comment on Meta claims torrenting pirated books isn’t illegal without proof of seeding 1 month ago:
Hey now some of us just have wildly shit upload speeds and couldn’t hope to reach 1:1 without spending an entire year seeding a single movie.
- Comment on Business school professors trained an AI to judge workers' personalities based on their faces. 2 months ago:
Its also affected by which direction the sun hits your house from, your commute to work (if applicable) and what kind of diet you had when growing up.
- Comment on OpenAI whistleblower’s deemed suicide 2 months ago:
Didn’t the boeing guy pretty explicitly state that he was not suicidal to family and friends right before he died?
- Comment on OpenAI whistleblower’s deemed suicide 2 months ago:
We got some of it, its just that killer drones and SI aren’t as cool on this side of the screen, and the cyberware is only for rich people (though there is a growing 3D printed movement for amputees) That said with some craft skills we can at least make the cool punk armor and kneepads and have it be reasonably functional, even deploy a blade if you’re ambitious, though more predator than mantis in that regard.
Be the change you want to see.
