- Comment on Microsoft has a big Windows 10 problem, and only one year to solve it 3 weeks ago:
Probably a lower adoption rate than Vista
- Comment on Concerns Raised Over Bitwarden Moving Further Away From Open-Source 3 weeks ago:
Are you sure?
Because last time I tried that it was THE worst password manager that i ever tried in my life. I’d feel safer with the ie6 password manager
- Comment on Former Intel CPU engineer details how internal x86-64 efforts were suppressed prior to AMD64's success 3 weeks ago:
Sometimes for some reason, there’s no limit. Like the cheap i3-8100 can use ECC memory
- Comment on In rare move from printing industry, HP actually has a decent idea 1 month ago:
Or… just copy the text that you want to print in libreoffice and print from there
Moreover, I don’t understand why HP is wasting lots of server processing power for this. If someone prints one page instead of 47, then they can downgrade from the highest plan of their ink subscription with 100 monthly pages to the lowest cheapest plan with only 15 pages. Maybe they plan to include a page with sponsored coupons in the printout?
- Comment on 3D printed 'suicide pod' used by a human for the first time 1 month ago:
Deal breaker, it should be one time fee
- Comment on should i do a raid configuration or is it risky 1 month ago:
Remember that raid isn’t a backup but just a way to minimize downtime if one of the disks breaks (except raid 0)
- Comment on Musk’s plan to axe X's block button is a real win for stalkers and abusers. 1 month ago:
Otherwise how the bullies can continue to belittle the victim behind their backs?
- Comment on Google TV Streamer goes on sale today with home panel, sports page and more 1 month ago:
It’s designed to bombard the user with targeted ads, so it will have a long life
- Comment on The Extreme Cost of Training AI Models. 1 month ago:
It’s obvious that Google didn’t pay the crazy AWS prices to train Gemini, seeing how many servers they have in gcp.
They mean that they used creative accounting to pay themselves crazy gcp usage bills to deduct from taxes?
- Comment on Glass Antenna Turns Windows Into 5G Base Stations - IEEE Spectrum 1 month ago:
Useless, we all got the embedded 5g base station with the vaccine
Works great, i always have 5 bars
- Comment on OceanGate’s ill-fated Titan sub relied on a hand-typed Excel spreadsheet 1 month ago:
The sub was totaled. Like you need to change a helmet after a crash even it it looks fine
- Comment on Why is Facebook filled with so much random junk now? 2 months ago:
Shareholders are demanding more time spent in app in average and this is what they pushed: if there’s not enough content, dilute it with some shit
- Comment on Active SIM card led Indonesians to Alice Guo's door | GMA News Online 2 months ago:
Who’s her and how it’s related to technology?
- Comment on The Guy Who Designed the iPhone Made a New Button 2 months ago:
No AI??? And it’s considered a new invention? Meh!
- Comment on Startup Says It'll Use Huge Space Mirror to Sell Sunlight During Nighttime 2 months ago:
Luckily it’s just an attempt to scam some dumb VCs
- Comment on Why my apps will soon be gone from the Google Play Store 2 months ago:
Login from an old phone, then once it’s installed on the old phone with the same Google account, it will appear on the newer phone. Yes, it’s stupid
- Comment on After seeing Wi-Fi network named “STINKY,” Navy found hidden Starlink dish on US warship 2 months ago:
i was wondering why would you choose such a stupid WiFi access point name, then I read that it was Elon musk that decided that the default starlink AP name has to be that stupid so people would change it
- Comment on Linus Tech Tips uploaded a video showing how to block ads on Youtube. Which was removed by Youtube for community guidelines violations. 2 months ago:
i don’t know if this is serious or a joke
- Comment on Wells Fargo employee found dead in cubicle 4 days after she clocked in: ‘She was just lying on her desk’ 2 months ago:
I instead imagine someone from HR pissed storming in her cubicle wanting to shout “hey you need to clock in and clock out every day, ok???”
- Comment on San Francisco says ‘good riddance’ as X prepares to leave 2 months ago:
Top shareholders of Twitter include:
- Elon Musk (owns 78.7% of the company)
- Saudi prince Alwaleed bin Talal (5.7%)
- Oracle’s founder Larry Ellison (3.0%)
WTF they really need to relocate the evil lair in a volcano
- Comment on San Francisco says ‘good riddance’ as X prepares to leave 2 months ago:
All of their staff that was here are going to stay here - they’re not going to follow fucking Xitter
At this point, for how he treated his employees, we can assume that most of the ones left are visa hostages that would be deported the day after being fired or incompetent people that faked their way to the spot and can’t find another job that pays the same. Or musk stans, but he fired even that simp that slept in the office floor in order to be more “productive”.
They are trapped and follow him everywhere
- Comment on Telegram has become a key tool for the Russian military. Why does Moscow continue to rely on a Dubai-based civilian messaging app? 2 months ago:
Users of Anom can learn if they’re under investigation by typing in their username and smartphone details into a form on the site.
😂 Nice try
- Comment on Telegram has become a key tool for the Russian military. Why does Moscow continue to rely on a Dubai-based civilian messaging app? 2 months ago:
Yes, it was marketed in the dark web marketplaces as “the phone for criminals”
That app could run only on a special custom ROM. It was a dedicated phone, a Google pixel 4a with locked bootloader and a custom ROM that exclusively allowed to communicate with other anom users. You don’t buy a $2000 phone that could only communicate with other $2000 phones if you don’t have something to hide.
It might have happened that maybe a millionaire with disposable income bought a set to talk with his secret girl affair but those were definitely the minority
- Comment on Does your Duolingo app icon look sick? You're not alone 2 months ago:
That’s a genius idea. A disgusting app icon that can be reverted to normal only when you pay a subscription
Reddit also tried that shit
Unless users uninstall the app
- Comment on Does your Duolingo app icon look sick? You're not alone 2 months ago:
The ads respawn faster than you can dismiss them
- Comment on Does your Duolingo app icon look sick? You're not alone 2 months ago:
I can’t read a single line Image
- Comment on Does your Duolingo app icon look sick? You're not alone 2 months ago:
I’m generally ok to have ads around the article, something has to pay the bills, but here the ads don’t let you read a single line
- Comment on Dutch government to ban ASML from servicing installed wafer tools in China 2 months ago:
Clearly behind them there’s the USA pushing for that.
Isn’t this dangerous, like playing with fire? I don’t think that China is going to be “oh no the software license is expire, we give up and close all the factories”, rather going to invest billions to find an alternative and make ASML irrelevant in the country. It won’t be fast to see cloned machines but isn’t it better to keep them tied to licenses and expensive periodic maintenance instead of pushing a temporary roadblock that will lead to the development of workarounds, unofficial cheap maintenance routines and cloned machines?
- Comment on Getting Your iPhone Repaired Could Ban You From Snapchat 2 months ago:
The equivalent API on Android gets a new id when the phone is resetted.
Weird that Apple doesn’t do that on refurbished phones
- Comment on Worst PC hardware trends that disappeared 2 months ago:
Unfortunately those cards come and went so fast that the LLM that wrote this “article” didn’t have enough data on this
