- Comment on Microsoft Confirms Windows 11 January 2026 Update Issues, Releases Fixes 1 day ago:
To be fair. Lts being more stable is kinda the point, thats why important infrastructure like hospital equipment will always run older lts release versions with as little additional updates possible.
This does not excuse the sheer lack of competence Microsoft has been displaying.
- Comment on I am a modest person. But I have to agree with her 3 days ago:
In this work the artist portrays the feeling of disillusionment of modern life.
The subject is in a fastfood restaurant, presumably eating out by choice, they are clearly no longer waiting in line as demonstrated by the already obtained drink, but yet they do not look happy.
The style of intens lines put emphasis on this surreal feeling. Are they really hungry, do they want to be here? Or are they just going trough the motions of their life.
But thats not all because the once the art observer realizes this depth they may even understand beyond it and in effect watch themselves in the mirror. Looking at this art, seemingly by choice. But do they want or need art or are they also just going trough the motions.
Finally hitting the true intention of this art, reflection on the ego that so perversely sees art and then makes it about themselves. Illustrates by the sexual desire clearly expressed by this sad entity.
Truly a masterpiece of its kind. Bidding will start at 4 whole hands of seashells.

- Comment on Scientists reveal what drives homosexual behavior in primates 5 days ago:
I get what you’re saying, i had not considered it could be interpreted like this.
For the record i do think you exist and are valid.
Just because our brains are flexible enough to adjust for otherwise unmet needs does not mean thats it’s a satisfying happy life, que the history of desperate repressed hetero men sharing a room. But any emotional closeness even to a human is better than depressed isolation.
I also consider non sexual relationships like “bromance” to be part of this trend. Showing emotional affection between non lover friends, especially those not in a relationship should be more normalised.
- Comment on Scientists reveal what drives homosexual behavior in primates 5 days ago:
Technically its human and sheep.
But the reason is that for all cases of homosexuality in animals they are always actually bisexual.
With the exception of homosexuals sheep who will refuse to mate with the other gender. They are homo exclusive for life and you cannot find an exception (as far as i know)
For humans this can be anecdotally the same but because bisexuality does exist in humans and even supposedly homoexclusive people can have heterosexual experience from before they come out the closest that i think there not comparable.
Just like hetero army guys who may pretend one of them is a women for a night, gay people can exist in loving functional hetero relationships. So even for homosexual people i would say its their main preference on top of bisexual baseline.
- Comment on Scientists reveal what drives homosexual behavior in primates 5 days ago:
My theory for a while now that all mammals (except sheep) have a bisexual baseline with a common neurotypical heterosexual bias.
The heterosexual bias makes evolutionary sense because offspring.
The bisexual base line makes evolutionary sense because some gay people taking care of eachothers emotional-social needs is more sustainable then having sexually frustrated subgroup members.
- Comment on If you record yourself talking to someone and then watch the video... it feels very weird... like a bizzare out-of-body experience... 6 days ago:
Its uncanny for most people to look at themselves in photos or video because we are so used to seeing our mirror reflections instead.
Same can be reasoned with acoustics. The sounds we speak are made inside your throat and mouth, practically already resonating within the skull. It’s bound to sound different than what a microphone some feet away will pick up.
- Comment on I felt so betrayed when I found out Germany isn't called Germany in Germany 1 week ago:
You have it backwards.
German in German is “Deutsch” or “Duits” in Dutch.
Dutch in Dutch is “Nederlands” or “Niederländisch” in German.
“Deutch” comes from an old high german word “diutisc” which meant “of the people”
“Dutch” comes from “Diest” meaning “people’s language”
When the Romans invaded England, they important the Latin “Germania” to refer to Germany and gradually started to use “Dutch” for the common people of the “lower countries” (Belgium and Netherlands)

I have tried snac before as a minimalist fediverse server but the blog style layout isn’t really for me.
I have also considered wether a personal Lemmy is a good idea or not.

- Comment on Are we truely prisoners of our upbringing? 3 weeks ago:
Our upbringing leaves huge impressions on us that help us shape who we become, but a prison implies a freedom you are kept away from.
If we had no upbringing whatsoever (how we get that would look like) would we have more potential?
Even if we could engineer the perfect adult body to be born as, would we retain our reality of unique individual lives or would we all become the same flavour of person?, limiting the range of what humans combined can experience (highs and lows).
I’d argue the restrictive prison is individual life itself, you can never become someone else that exists or experience things as different species. You can only really experience your own perspective of lived experiences.
The people around you are modifiers they may enable you, hinder you but others are never and never have been in charge of your person, regardless of how much they/parents may pretend to be.
- Comment on What social class would that be 3 weeks ago:
Wrong community but i want to give this a fair assessment because of how many don’t want to unity against the rich thinking they are it and would have to live with less.
This scenario is not ruling class.
Summarised its wealthy business owner that owns plural properties.
This can be considered upper middle class, or low upper class. And is a good example of how little most people really have. The Middle class that most people believe they belong to is basically just business owners nowadays, almost everyone who is “employee” and not owner is lower class.
The actual rich, 1% upper class which will look at this family and person as dirt.
The 1% upper class does not just stay in a 5 star hotel as if it was note worthy expense. Their accommodations are simply arranged and provided.
They’d laugh at “owns a resort” because thats just a single asset to put on their portfolio of ownerships.
They don’t consider whether or not something is egypt because they are free to fly wherever they want.
The rich will swallow this wealthy person and family whole if their greed finds them.

- Comment on Apple announces more ads are coming to App Store search results 4 weeks ago:
To be more technical correct, all ideals go out of the window the moment a shareholders frowns.
Apple has been one of the wealthiest countries for years, they don’t need money, they can’t be doing this just for money.
They are doing it, to get more money yes, but only in order to make the angle of a line go up so they can sell a comfortable illusion to the people keeping them in charge of the available unimaginable mass of wealth.

- Comment on Asking the right questions... 5 weeks ago:
I like to use dashes myself but the combination of overuse with other tells does make me suspicious.
Which isn’t bad, even an intellectual can write things wrong.
I didn’t think dashes where out of place here, but i did get a real ai vibe of the last paragraph. Is this something Bernie is really considering or is something to round up a generated list of scary scenarios. (Which are all existing valid concerns still)

There are custom themes out there that change the interface.
Right click -> identify-> Title name, has yet to fail me.
Its been a long time since i used plex so I can’t say how much “easier” its over there but compared to the days before streaming this little upfront work takes less time then going to a physical store to rent.

It’s not a complaint, just being honest.
- Comment on Racism is for poor people. Rich folks have classism. 2 months ago:
Too long; only read half.
They’re not mutually exclusive.
Rich people can still be very racist, they just don’t need to express it directly because they can hide it behind classism most of the time.
In a way classism is a way of thinking extrapolated from racism similarly to the aristocracy. By pretending they are a completely different superior race within their ethnic group who stands above all other ethnic groups.

I am well aware, the first sentence of the person you replied to is a direct responds to the article, the context was not far off.
But sorry if my reply bothered you, my reply was just as much intended for the random scroller/reader and nothing personal.

Um… You are aware you made your comment about ai being much more then just llm within context of a discussion on wether the ai bubble will burst or not?
Cause that’s what this post/thread is about.
The ai bubble will burst nonetheless. I was also playing on the “sir, this is a Wendy’s” meme. In a way joking that your comment is actually not relevant to the discussion.
