- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 47 minutes ago:
I said I am torn here. Basically both sides are shit. I know this does not help.
- Comment on Do you read analog clocks to the exact minute? How do you do this quickly? 10 hours ago:
Years and years of use of analog clocks helps.
- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 10 hours ago:
Properly dealing with hate crimes is different from controlling the internet more or less in general.
Let the internet be free, but also keep it free from hate.
- Comment on Cornell's world-first 'microwave brain' computes differently 15 hours ago:
Reading the article, I learned that the author does not really have a clue what he is talking about.
A mechanical clock is anything but analog. Look up what an escape wheel is for if you doubt it.
For “analog is easier” keep in mind that it is very hard to get chip based circuits do precisely reproducable analog behavior. Indeed, this is one of the main reasons why we have digital computer chips: the output of the circuit is sufficiently unambiguous.
And “can run things in parallel” - That’s what e.g. FPGAs are for. One if my designs runs audio compression on 32 channels with a meagre 12MHz clock, among many, many other tasks. All at the same time.
- Comment on If copyright on a work expired immediately after death, would be that a bad or good idea? 15 hours ago:
It should return to the original design: 14 years from creation, and then 14 more years if requested and paid for.
- Comment on 4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene 16 hours ago:
I’m pulled back and forth with this one. On the one hand, 4chan is a shithole that should be taken care of. On the other side, UK laws that try to govern the internet are so overly deranged shit.
- Comment on Macaroni and cheese 16 hours ago:
Mac is just a synonym for “good European food Amerikanized into cheap junk with chemicals.”
Imagine! Why would one eat “Mac” when you can have pasta with sauce Mornay?
- Comment on Got a six-pack for me and the boys 1 day ago:
Let me guess, American Baked Beans contain a minimum 20% HFCS?

Nearly everything that edits text. Maybe with the lone exception of edlin or sed.

Linux does not care if the user is still in the vim age or has already progressed to good editors.
- Comment on Laura Loomer wants ICE to livestream arrests for entertainment: "Make it exciting an show ICE agents tackling Juan and Jesus" 1 day ago:
When the Trump area is over and law and order has returned to the US, maybe they should broadcast apprehension and trials of the Trump-Junta…

Well, Jeep is not really a name for good innovation. They are stuck with a management that still thinks “mechanics” and sees electronics as a pure profit center, not as a gear in the system that has to be as reliable as the rest of it.
- Comment on Inside the Underground Trade of ‘Flipper Zero’ Tech to Break into Cars 2 days ago:
The lack of security awareness is due to them to scrooge to hire the right professionals for the job. It is 100% the result of cutting corners.
- Comment on It Took Many Years And Billions Of Dollars, But Microsoft Finally Invented A Calculator That Is Wrong Sometimes 2 days ago:
Wrong, they already had that with Excel. There were a bunch of functions that delivered wrong returns for years, and none of the users (mostly economists) had noticed.

It’s a “You won’t believe it’s not beef”
- Comment on Inside the Underground Trade of ‘Flipper Zero’ Tech to Break into Cars 3 days ago:
If you can hack a car with a flipper zero, then the car manufacturers failed to implement the most basic security protocols. Complain to them, and demand a fix.
- Comment on The AI Report That's Spooking Wall Street | The majority of companies are failing to see any returns on their AI investments, a report finds 3 days ago:
Oh how surprising! Except for anybody with a technical background. There are too many Steve Jobs around who can sell technology to the unweary, and not enough Steven Wozniaks who can make technology actually doing something.
- Comment on American Truck Simulator/ Euro Truck Sim coming to consoles 3 days ago:
American Truck Simulator? Why? Desert Bus already exists.
- Comment on White House launches official TikTok account with Trump saying 'I am your voice' 3 days ago:

How about your responsibility for the damaging and lethal product of yours, OpenAI?
- Comment on This CEO laid off nearly 80% of his staff because they refused to adopt AI fast enough. 2 years later, he says he’d do it again 6 days ago:
Just like an AI. Instead of learning from mistakes, he repeates them, and denies any wrongdoing.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
And the Americans are pissing their pants because of Chinese students…

If Pinocchio kills you this way through a TV channel, it is not a News Channel.

Fermented cabbage, AKA Sauerkraut.
