Agreed.

Good for this guy. Fuck AI and the companies responsible.

- Comment on Ron DeSantis signs bill scrubbing ‘climate change’ from Florida state laws 5 months ago:
I too feel bad for the few who see that this is a bad policy but what you’re suggesting is basically what they’re already doing and no matter what we call the fund it’s just going to be enabling poor policy makers to keep doing what they do.
- Comment on Ron DeSantis signs bill scrubbing ‘climate change’ from Florida state laws 5 months ago:
I’m actually for this. With their home insurance marked on the verge of collapse and thus their housing market, I kind of just want to watch it all burn at this point. I only ask that we withhold any federal aid and disaster relief when they get shit on by mother nature.

- Comment on 40-year-old delivers for DoorDash to help pay down her $100,000 student loan debt—on top of her full-time job 6 months ago:
You can’t do this with student loan debt which seems incredibly dumb. I also don’t understand borrowing 100k for school.

I don’t either. People love being shit on I guess. It’s what makes huge companies like Apple and Tesla so popular.

Good
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro Could Take Four Generations to Reach 'Ideal Form' 8 months ago:
I don’t think they had any other choice than to make the eye tracking great. They don’t make GPU hardware and the hardware they do make can’t possibly handle the processing power its resolution requires. Other headsets have understood this limitation and weren’t trying to design an OS. Again apple has no choice here. They don’t have desktop machines to provide input to the headset and they are way too far up their own ass to allow input from a PC.
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro Could Take Four Generations to Reach 'Ideal Form' 8 months ago:
I thought the same thing. Apple doesn’t make GPUs, VR gaming at the crazy resolution this headset uses is going to take a high end desktop GPU but Apple’s desktop line up also doesn’t have the GPU power it needs and also doesn’t support installing discrete GPUs. This headset has no possibility of being used on a PC so a lot of work went into finding ways to limit the GPU workload.
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro Could Take Four Generations to Reach 'Ideal Form' 8 months ago:
I think the marketing for this thing misleads people on the technical limitations.
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro Could Take Four Generations to Reach 'Ideal Form' 8 months ago:
I think if other companies threw price limitations out the window like apple did they could have easily made something similar. Also the fact that you still need another headset to play the best parts of what VR already has is ridiculous. It’s $3500 TV with no inputs.
- Comment on Riot Games Now Requires Kernel-Level Anti-Cheat Software for League of Legends, Following Valorant's Implementation 9 months ago:
This is dumb. Anyone installing this is giving absolute full control of their PC to riot and their Chinese owners. This level of control will do nothing to stop the most popular types of cheating from capture cards and AI. It’s a huge sacrifice with zero promise.
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro available in the U.S. on February 2 10 months ago:
The anti-consumer apple BS aside. The lack of PC support or support for any real GPU that has a chance at running Games in full resolution, makes this dean on arrival for most people using VR.

- Comment on The stainless steel body of Tesla's Cybertruck is reportedly leading to issues with gaps in between the panels 11 months ago:
I’ve worked with stainless steel (specifically 304, 430 and 401) for 15 years and the steel shouldn’t have a memory after being run through a de-coiling machine that is configured properly. Excessive heat in a focused area would definitely cause it to warp but this can usually be overcome by adding geometry to stiffen the parts.
- Comment on Car dealers say they can’t sell EVs, tell Biden to slow their rollout 11 months ago:
I agree that all of those things are improving but repairability or even the right to repair new electric vehicles is flaky at best and that’s my concern. I don’t want to own a vehicle that I’m unable to repair. Not to mention manufacturers locking features behind paywalls.
- Comment on Car dealers say they can’t sell EVs, tell Biden to slow their rollout 11 months ago:
I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect 10+ years or more out of a car without shelling out a large sum of money for a battery swap. This is probably my only concern. Repairability and the cost of those repairs.
- Comment on Car dealers say they can’t sell EVs, tell Biden to slow their rollout 11 months ago:
Also maybe don’t make me buy a car through a dealership. Why can’t I just order and car and it gets delivered to my house instead of making me pick it up from a dealer that gets to charge whatever they want for being a middle man on top of the cars already being too expensive.
- Comment on The stainless steel body of Tesla's Cybertruck is reportedly leading to issues with gaps in between the panels 11 months ago:
Depending on the grade, the weight difference between stainless steel and carbon steel of the same thickness is not much of any at all.

Not a Tesla fan but this article is garbage. Basically all sheet metal comes on coils “that resemble toilet paper” including the metal that other manufacturers use.

Right. I can’t wait for the thermal camera on my ridiculously expensive car to break so it can become a lawn ornament until I spend thousands on a new camera.

I can’t find this rating anywhere. It was proposed this year but that’s all I can find.
- Comment on Tesla will sue you for $50,000 if you try to resell your Cybertruck in the first year 11 months ago:
I don’t think anything about any car is designed to soften the blow for a pedestrian. They usually have a crumple zone to dissipate energy in a collision but that isn’t designed with pedestrians in mind. Also they would likely repair this like any other vehicle since the body is made up of several panels.
