  False positives implies the people will be real.

  It’ll probably just invent people to hunt down and waste a bunch of tax dollars.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fml lmao⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Investing is only a risk if you’re poor.

  That little disclaimer your financial institution gives you that investing is risky and you may lose all your money? That only applies to the poors. When the rich and banks invest in bad businesses or loans, they can cry to the government that they’re about to lose everything and won’t Uncle Sam pretty please open up his wallet and give us a small loan of a few billion dollars.

  I say let em go broke. We should have broken up the banks in 2008, fired the whole C suite of chase and all the other banks, and set up smaller banks that now know if they fuck up they’ll get dissolved. Instead we gave them a slap on the wrist and trillions of dollars to fix their own fuckup. This only taught them that they can continue to make massively risky investments with no downsides.

  Now trump is black bagging US citizens in broad daylight, and Musk is an immigrant who fully admitted that he originally entered the country illegally. The danger must have creeped its way through his ketamine addled brain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking idiots⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Just because you’re too stupid to understand how something works doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

  Doubt you know how a car engine works either, yet there are a whole lot of cars out there.

  Modern weapons notoriously good at killing.

  You telling me those things could take out predator drones too?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨makes more sense than this shit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In that universe, humans also have FTL travel and colonies on hundreds of planets, yet have mysteriously lost the arcane technology known as “email” and require everything to be done in person.

  Also most of the colonies are either one family living alone on a distant space rock, or abandoned military outposts full of an inexplicable amount of space pirates, and somehow the two rarely interact.

  And humans didn’t destroy earth with climate change, instead the FTL drives they invented blew away the atmosphere… somehow. Yet this is a secret protected by big engine or some shit, because every other habitable planet still lets everyone use their FTL drives near the planet anyway.

  God that game sucks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MIT report: 95% of generative AI pilots at companies are failing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  All MBAs and CEOs are like puppies chasing their own tails.

  They want the growth because number go up good. They’ll do anything for number go up. And when number go up, they get the good and then they need to focus on next number go up.

  They have no long term plan other than number go up. For the next few quarters, they can slap AI on anything and number go up. What happens if AI takes all the non manual labor jobs? Or if it turns out AI is useless and they wasted billions on snake oil? They don’t know, cause they were thinking about number go up right now, not number go up later.

  Our economy is a farce.

  Accessibility to a service is just as important as continuity of service.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3D Printing Patterns Might Make Ghost Guns More Traceable Than We Thought⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Show me 20 people with 3d printers and I’ll show you 20 other people with 3d printers that match the fingerprints of the first 20.

  This isn’t like paper printers where companies were forced by the government to encode the serial numbers of the printer into every piece of paper that comes out. There’s no way you could hide identifying information in molten plastic like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨well?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s entirely possible that there are no aliens in the “New York City” part of the universe.

  Dense regions of space will have much more interactions between stellar systems and may not be stable enough for life to evolve. It could be why we haven’t seen anyone else, they’re all in their own little pockets of peace.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Trump fires the Fed’s Powell ‘both the currency and the bond market can collapse,’ according to Deutsche Bank⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate that we evaluate the health of the economy by the growth in the stock market.

  The stock market would continue growing until the power grid failed if every human on earth just evaporated into mist.

  Actually it would probably break before that when one of 6 people’s two factor authentication timed out and the computer no longer had access to their accounts.

  What about the civilian right to repair.

  Why can’t we all just be allowed to fix all of our shit. Sell me parts, let me open up things and poke around without illegals saying I violated the warranty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Tech journalists don’t know a damn thing. They’re people that liked computers and could also bullshit an essay in college. That doesn’t make them an expert on anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ICEBlock climbs to the top of the App Store charts after officials slam it⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  international VPNs are not immune from US subpoena

  And condoms are only 98% effective.

  A condom and VPN work on the same principle: a layer of protection. No protection is ever 100% effective, but you can at least try.

  Remember, they’re already building the camps. It’s only a matter of time before “helping illegals” is a crime that gets you sent to the camps. I’d rather make the fascists work for it at least.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ICEBlock climbs to the top of the App Store charts after officials slam it⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ve still got to connect to their servers and they can monitor who connects to what.

  I wouldn’t trust it without a non-US based VPN. We should assume anything in the US is compromised by the fed, and that they are watching.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The awful Trump branding might be laser engraved in America.

  Everything else is guaranteed made in Taiwan or china. The US was just barely getting its semiconductor industry back under Biden.

  If these things ever ship, I can’t wait for someone to crack one open just to find a bunch of Chinese parts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's a good question⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can only assume you’re human, so that still counts as a man made religion.

  Sounds relaxing though, I’d pray to that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's a good question⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Are their non man made religions I should no about?

  I feel like dogs would have a good religion. I wanna subscribe to that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If your want proof that the wealthy live by a different set of laws, look no further than the time Elon Musk, ceo of SpaceX, went on a podcast and smoked weed.

  SpaceX has DOD contracts for launches, and somehow him blatantly violating federal law had no impact on the contracts his company fulfilled for the government.

  Do I think weed should be classified like it is? No.

  Do I think that everyone should be held to the same standard? Yes. And if anyone else had been involved in government projects while going on podcasts and smoking weed, they’d at the very least be fired.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New fuel cell could enable electric aviation⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Where exactly are they storing these fuel cells? Most commercial planes store fuel in the wings, unless I’m mistaken. Imagine a bird strike that exposes pure sodium metal to a cloud or something. Now you have a metal fire on the wing of your aircraft while it’s in flight.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Forced E-Waste PCs And The Case Of Windows 11’s Trusted Platform⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Linux Mint is very user friendly. It’s basically the windows UI, including all the familiar keyboard shortcuts, and the software store is very robust. 99.9% of things are just point and click. Using Steam and a browser is the exact same experience as on windows, only a bit snappier.
