IIRC, someone was talking about their p2p text only 4chan clone recently. I forget what it was called though.
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 1 day ago:
The popo using cybertrucks would really be the cherry on the techno-feudalist hellscape pie.
- Comment on Anime Corner's Top 10 Anime Openings of 2024 5 days ago:
Orb deserves to be on this list. The opening is a banger, and the way it changes throughout the series is super well done.
It’s definitely the most underrated anime of the past 2 seasons, along with its OP.
- Comment on In January, billionaires amassed more wealth than the poorest third of humanity owns. 1 week ago:
The billionaires are already in the business of inventing new currencies as a method of wealth extraction. So unless the nee currency is billionaire scalps, it’s not going to do anything.
- Comment on NASA supercomputer reveals strange spiral structure at the edge of our solar system 1 week ago:
Probably not even strange to them, it’s just the nature of science journalism these days. If it’s not strange and new, it doesn’t turn eyes, and therefore there’s little incentive to write about it.
- Comment on Robot with 1,000 muscles twitches like human while dangling from ceiling 1 week ago:
They really did go for the “horror movie about to go very wrong” aesthetic when they made those videos, didn’t they.
- Comment on Google Chrome disables uBlock Origin for some in Manifest v3 rollout 1 week ago:
Also, keep in mind, google has been caught slowing Firefox down in YouTube before. So if you notice any slowness in their services, it’s fair to suspect it might not be Firefox’s fault.
- Comment on AI Atlantis revealed off the coast of China, reportedly boasting computational power equivalent to 30,000 high-end gaming PCs 1 week ago:
Ahh good, let’s put a bunch of electric heaters into the ocean. This sounds like it’ll help with the ongoing crisis in ocean temperature rise, and certainly won’t have any unforseen consequences.
- Comment on Rate my breakfast 1 week ago:
7/10. Sweet chilli heat doritos would bump it to 9/10.
- Comment on I put my heart and soul into this AI but nobody cares 1 week ago:
It seems not RTFA is a time honoured tradition we’ve carried with us from Slashdot, to reddit, and now to Lemmy.
- Comment on Small study suggests dark mode doesn’t save much power for very human reasons 1 week ago:
You made a categorical claim that is not substantiated. In fact, you’re even ignoring evidence to the contrary solely because it’s anecdotal.
As the idiom goes, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
- Comment on Small study suggests dark mode doesn’t save much power for very human reasons 1 week ago:
Your own source disagrees with you:
###Are there benefits to using dark mode?
The research into dark mode’s effects is far from conclusive. But anecdotally, some people claim that using dark mode does benefit them.
####Dark mode may reduce eye strain
Fans of dark mode claim that it can increase the amount of contrast between the text that you’re reading and the background.
This would, in theory, make it easier to read on your device. Since reading for long spans of time on a screen can lead to eye strain and dry eye, it seems like it might be worth giving it a try to give your eyes a break.
####Dark mode may cut down on blue light exposure
Blue light exposure does have demonstrated side effects, such as difficulty sleeping and eye strain.
Dark mode may cut down on your exposure to blue light, but you may also achieve these results by turning down the brightness of your screen after dark, especially when the space around you is dark.

Drrr drrr drrr
- Comment on place yer bets 1 week ago:
I recall hearing it was medium-ish nuclear weapon sized, but not wipe out civilisation size. Wherever it’s heading would need to be evacuated.
That was a week ago, though, and I’m sure the size projections will be updated as we get more data.
- Comment on BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired 2 weeks ago:
I like it if it’s really really subtle. Basically the minimum length vibration, which is 2ms on heliboard.
Anything longer, I find annoying.
- Comment on Huawei's tri-foldable phone hits global markets in a show of defiance amid US curbs 2 weeks ago:
The company says it’s the thinnest foldable phone at 3.6 millimeters (0.14 inches),
I mean, it better be, otherwise, if its 3x as thick in your pocket, that’s going to be one chonky phone.
3.6 × 3 = 10.8 mm folded. Definitely on the thicker side, but not outlandishly so.

I’m not sure what to do with this knowledge…
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I think maybe they were just trying to be funny, not disagree with your request per se.
- Comment on Not sure about Dagestan 2 weeks ago:
Just send him 2-3 years Dagestan. What didn’t you get? 🙄

It’s clearly short for Mangione. 😏

Doesn’t seem to work in Eternity. :(
- Comment on Revealed: Google facilitated Russia and China’s censorship requests 2 weeks ago:
That makes sense. They’re spineless. They’ll bend to whatever position is needed to operate in a given state, unless it directly affects their bottom line. See the quick adoption of “Gulf of America” for example.

What could be smaller than just 1 person?
- Comment on PassMark sees the first yearly drop in average CPU performance in its 20 years of benchmark results 3 weeks ago:
I wonder if this has anything to do with Intel’s big snafu with gen 13/14 processors. If the solution was to push a microcode update cuts the voltage to the CPUs, it’s basically a “stealth” nerf. Their spin doctors have been working overtime to frame this as erroneously high voltages that were being “fixed”.

So when does NetWatch start making the Blackwall?
- Comment on Mhhhm, tasty threadripper 3 weeks ago:
Coming across this post in eternity threw my brain for a loop. I clicked the comment link in the picture and couldn’t figure out why I was half in my feed, and half in this comment section for a hot second.
- Comment on Meet Eva, the AI chatbot based on a woman in prison 3 weeks ago:
I mean, couldn’t you just use any of a plethora of other uncensored chatbots from huggingface if you want those sorts of answers?
- Comment on How Trump Lost His Trade War - The Atlantic 3 weeks ago:
As a Canadian, while it was mildly insulting, I think ultimately it was FUDD. We’ll be ready if he tries anything abroad, but y’all be ready when he tries shit in your own backyard.

The monkey’s paw curls its finger. Alcohol has been criminalised, and is now equally easy to buy as cocaine.
