- Comment on New EA Owners Hoping AI Will Cut Costs And Boost Profits, It's Claimed 5 days ago:
I’m imagining that picture with ea as death visiting Westwood and bioware etc.
But to the left you see ea death is in its own room and opening the door is the figure of private equity. A bloodstained tzeentchian nightmare screeching from the void.
- Comment on Regulating AI hastens the Antichrist, says Palantir’s Peter Thiel 6 days ago:
Yeah idgi. He’s trying to convince the Christian right to regulate ai or something right?
- Comment on Starmer used land tax dodge to avoid inheritance tax 6 days ago:
So he gave them something and the…canary… is sad he didn’t then have to pay inheritance tax on something he gifted when it came back to him?
Shit stirring tbh. He could’ve just kept it the whole time but wanted his parents to feel ownership and independence. This isn’t a tax dodge it’s just how tax rules work.
- Comment on Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics' 1 week ago:
I didn’t ask for this.
What a shame.
- Comment on Google says adblockers caused YouTube views count to drop - this is what adblockers told us really happened 1 week ago:
If the Google war on ad blocking meant the ad blockers accidently blocked something everyone wants its still Google fault.
Everything was fine until Google decided to change how everything works over and over again to get people to watch the awful ads they let on their platform.
- Comment on The Secret Service traced swatting threats against officials. They found 300 servers capable of crippling New York’s cell system 1 week ago:
The majority of finance institutions will have multiple live servers in two places. Eg. new Jersey and as far away as Virginia. Some have three.
The data itself will be in even more locations as backups, but might take a while to recover if multiple sites were attacked at once.
- Comment on All Amazon Fresh stores in UK to close 1 week ago:
AI = Actually Indians
- Comment on Starmer's new director of comms is swimming balls deep in controversy 4 weeks ago:
No its a far left agit prop site. As worthless as sqwarkbox to me.
- Comment on State pension age could rise again after cost of triple lock soars 2 months ago:
Just promise this time you really will increase petrol duty and suddenly everything is affordable. Until you bottle it again
- Comment on Waypoint Writers Quit Over Removal Of Articles Related To New Steam Policy 2 months ago:
I had to do a double take at the idea waypoint exists after they fired the entire team (by accident) a few years ago
- Comment on HS2 was doomed to be a mess, say insiders - because of a 'problem in this country' 2 months ago:
It’s a good article but can someone please tell the bbcthey don’t need to do click bait headlines
- Comment on Opinion: Keir Starmer’s “Island of strangers” speech was right 2 months ago:
An article about how starmer was right to blame immigration for real problems like house building, employment apprenticeships etc by showing those real problems are real.
No shit.
Crazy idea but maybe he should’ve done a speech about building house? Even mcsweeny knows you get one point from a speech into the news, they choose immigration and lost the opportunity to get press on the others.
- Comment on Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic as Steam’s top-rated game 2 months ago:
No the game has a much, much worse anexoty time crunch in trying to 100% it before the end of year… 2 ( I think) when grandpa shrine first measures progress.
- Comment on Employees at Amazon headquarters were asked on Monday to volunteer their time to the company’s warehouses to assist with grocery delivery 2 months ago:
Multiple deliveries a day ?! Why would anyone use that?
It’s bad enough not knowing when they’ll arrive and having to be ready, but at least after they’ve been you can get something done. Wow, Amazon are really bad at this.
- Comment on Deadly heatwaves are the new reality – we need to transform the UK’s cities and towns to survive them 2 months ago:
Getting rid of the car fumes and tarmac wouldn’t hurt either
- Comment on Microsoft pushes staff to use internal AI tools more, and may consider this in reviews. 'Using AI is no longer optional.' 2 months ago:
As if people coding things make ms any money, it’s pure extraction through windows and office and they need ai to be next.
- Comment on UK must 'actively prepare' for potential of war in the 'homeland', review warns 3 months ago:
I find it very difficult to believe Russia could resupply an invasion force, even if it could technically manage the initial push. I’ll have to read the article properly but the sea and air logistics involved, without invading every cou try between the UK and Russia, seem insurmountable.
- Comment on The UK failed grooming gang victims by not seeing ‘children as children’ 3 months ago:
They were specifically worried about race riots.
Look at the London riots years ago, that was caused by going after a gang member and escalates by gangs.
The police forces in these areas were absolutely right to worry, it wasn’t just about causing offence but the real threat of organised criminal members of a community mobilising that community against the police.
- Comment on The UK failed grooming gang victims by not seeing ‘children as children’ 3 months ago:
Some of it still looks a little like corruption to me.
There’s a huge report on this with more detail than anyone could reasonably read, somewhere way back in my comment history on Reddit. The way the problem was moved off to cross force specialised teams and then sat on is very odd, but could just be disorganisaton
- Comment on Meta shareholders overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to explore adding Bitcoin to the company's treasury, with less than 1% voting in favor of the measure 3 months ago:
Big incentive to keep trump in power if your bribery of him is public record. Someone else might do something about it
- Comment on dual immunity (see body) 4 months ago:
Maybe you shouldnt have eaten their porridge and slept in their bed.
- Comment on Why Japan's animation industry has embraced AI 4 months ago:
It does recreate the training material. There’s literally loads of examples of it spitting out a degraded copy of an original pi CE of art with specific enough terms.

- Comment on Steam Deck / Gaming News #16 4 months ago:
Yeah, the section headlines are huge and that’s exactly right to make this readable while skipping past stuff that means nothing to me

It provides fertilizer but needs “some food”.
How much food and what is it?
- Comment on ‘The Worst Internet-Research Ethics Violation I Have Ever Seen’ | The most persuasive “people” on a popular subreddit turned out to be a front for a secret AI experiment. 4 months ago:
The headline is that they advertised beauty products to girls after they detected them deleting a selfie. No ethics or morals at all
