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 3 weeks 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 4 weeks 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 1 month 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? 1 month 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 2 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.

I don’t think the waitress likes that I’m alone
- Comment on Deserved? Poll inside 2 months ago:
I simply unhinge my jaw and let it slide down my throats.

We are the ferengi
- Comment on Senators Introduce Bipartisan Bill to Guarantee Military Right to Repair Its Equipment 2 months ago:
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.

Oh I’ll edit your latex
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 2 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 2 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 2 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 Student visa applicants will now be forced to make their social media accounts public 2 months ago:
Well it’s been like 5 months and we’re already here, so maybe another 6 months to a year?
- Comment on Ask the crickets 2 months ago:
That’s but how math works, doesn’t matter if you use the American or metric formula
- Comment on Ask the crickets 2 months ago:
How did you hear negative chirps?
Can I learn this power?
- Comment on Your TV Is Spying On You 2 months ago:
Nothing a jumper wire can’t fix
- Comment on The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible 2 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 3 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 3 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 3 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 3 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 3 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.
- Comment on Forced E-Waste PCs And The Case Of Windows 11’s Trusted Platform 3 months ago:
Proton has come a long way.
The only game I can’t play is fortnight, and that’s because Epic won’t enable the anti cheat to run on Linux, not because the game doesn’t work.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 3 months ago:
By the time Cyberpunk 2 comes out, I’ll have my own Keanu installed in my brain.

Ah, the Harry Dresden Assassination technique
- Comment on Stack overflow is almost dead 3 months ago:
My experience has been more like this:
OP: I’m trying to make lasagna from scratch but my noodles aren’t turning out right. Here’s my noodle recipe and settings for my pasta machine.
Mod: duplicate post of “How to make canned spaghetti bolognese” thread locked.
- Comment on The U.S. Just Ran a Solar Storm Emergency Drill. The Real Deal Would Be a Catastrophe 3 months ago:
If it wasn’t for the stupid Darrel Dixon show, my head canon of the walking dead only affecting America would still stand.
They literally just walk, and it would be pretty obvious that everyone is infected after the first year or so of people dying from the flu and shit. Any country with competent leadership could have squashed the zombies in a couple months.
