Definitely considering looking into portable Faraday cages…
- Comment on AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds 1 week ago:
I think it’s useful for writing mundane snippets I’ve written a million times or helping me with languages I’m less familiar with, but anything more compex becomes pretty spaghetti pretty quick.
- Comment on It's official: EA is going private. 1 week ago:
If we’re lucky, they’ll do a Toys-R-Us and make EA fund it’s own buyout.
- Comment on whats your dumb purchases? 2 weeks ago:
I nice steal-able asset you flaunt on your wrist, to boot!

You mean I have to choose between Hokkaido or the rest of Japan? Rough :(
- Comment on Can't argue that. 2 weeks ago:
Im in my thirties and still average reflexes around 150-175ms ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- Comment on Exactly Six Months Ago, the CEO of Anthropic Said That in Six Months AI Would Be Writing 90 Percent of Code 3 weeks ago:
That’s insane. Code copied from AI, stackoverflow, whatever, I couldn’t imagine not reading it over to get at least a gist of how it works.
- Comment on 5 tomatoes 4 weeks ago:
Of course, i know this because I do 3d art in blender and refuse to set it to metric.
You monster.

good ol virus.txt
- Comment on It's a whole genre! 4 weeks ago:
I just watched it the other day and I still love it. Probably the nostalgia speaking, more than it actually being good, though, haha
- Comment on Just a little bit more 5 weeks ago:
I meant more of a societal “our”, more-so than Lemmy users specifically. We’re certainly a bit ahead of the curve, but most of our content that lands here comes from other social media sites first.
- Comment on YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same household 5 weeks ago:
Gabe Newell is 62 years old. Gonna enjoy this gravy train while we can…
- Comment on Just a little bit more 5 weeks ago:
Unfortunately, if you want censoring to stop, we have to stop letting our lives be ruled by algorithms.
- Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 5 weeks ago:
Not to mention there will always be methods and hackers jailbreaking devices. Even Windows 11’s TPM requirements have been defeated, anything else will be too.
- Comment on Breaking The Creepy AI in Police Cameras 5 weeks ago:
too many fucking bootlickers
I think there are also just a lot of exhausted people that just don’t have the time, energy, or direction to know what to do about it.
- Comment on Make it make sense 5 weeks ago:
Hey, if you have some physical limitation or just aren’t comfortable going faster, that’s 100% fine. Stay the hell in the right lane and never leave it, thanks lol
- Comment on Make it make sense 5 weeks ago:
You don’t like driving 55 in the passing lane? You get such a great view of everyone flipping you off!
- Comment on Make it make sense 5 weeks ago:
You’re totally right. It’s a social/culture issue. You doing this isn’t going to do shit. Everyone has to miraculously decide to come together to solve the problem with no one taking advantage. It’s the same reason we can’t do anything about climate change.
- Comment on Make it make sense 5 weeks ago:
Or when people drive too aggressively and cut someone off, causing them to slam on their brake.
- Comment on Intelligent Design 5 weeks ago:
This is why it’s so jarring when what happens in real life doesn’t line up with the predicted reality your brain expects! I hate that feeling :D
- Comment on Intelligent Design 5 weeks ago:
Your “instrument,” eh? 😏
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
When I was a kid, I started developing breathing issues. My dad immediately stopped smoking in the house and around me in general. I wish he’d stop smoking entirely, but I do love him for recognizing the harm he was doing to me and making changes to be a better father.
- Comment on Trump is building ‘one interface to rule them all.’ It’s terrifying. 1 month ago:
Under this admin, you just already know the thing is going to be a horrible hodgepodge mess of code generated by Grok or ChatGPT and put together as cheaply and quickly as possible.
- Comment on Bank forced to rehire workers after lying about chatbot productivity: Australia’s biggest bank regrets messy rush to replace staff with chatbots. 1 month ago:
The only way most companies should really be utilizing AI, if at all, should be automating repetitive, well-defined, internal processes so Bob from accounting can go do something actually productive. Attempting to automate the customer interacting side of things with a cold, unthinking, and easily manuplated machine is so insane.

No fucking way this dude’s name is actually Vought…
- Comment on I made a Firefox fork with Fediverse integration 1 month ago:
What would sending the domain name only achieve?
I’m guessing the idea could be to fetch a batch of recent discussions based on pages within a domain, then filter the results locally. This could even work very well with local caching.
- Comment on Anyone else guilty of this? 1 month ago:
Your dad is Nick Swardson? That’s cool
- Comment on ChatGPT 5 power consumption could be as much as eight times higher than GPT 4 — research institute estimates medium-sized GPT-5 response can consume up to 40 watt-hours of electricity 1 month ago:
Aw, that’s unfortunate for the big mega tech corps. Anyway.

Right there with ya. Knees are still good. Back is a fucking mess 😂
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
“Isn’t this cringy AF?!”
I’d be careful with that one, we don’t know the context in which this arranged date was set up. Was it between each of their parents, or was it with the 27 year old and OP’s dad? It could be potentially taken as an insult depending on what we don’t know.
