Work hard, learn to code, master the fundamentals, excel beyond your peers and you might have a real chance at… being laid off by embracer, microsoft or ubisoft. Sigh.
- Comment on so... dubvee and dubvee tesseract shut down. 1 week ago:
Tesseract is open source so perhaps not all is entirely lost, but yes situation is quite unfortunate. I’m not sure I can even say surprising though, considering ptz was raising flags nearly a year ago regarding admin tooling and general community behavior.

Maybe it’s a choose your own adventure situation. Tesla is whatever company you want it to be!
- Comment on Elon Musk Floats a New Source of Funding for xAI: Tesla 1 week ago:
I thought Tesla was an AI company first, why would they invest in a competitor? Or are they not, and they need to get their AI from xAI in which case what’s the point of Tesla, again?

Idk anything about stars or solar systems, but when my house gets too hot I just close the curtains and it helps everything cool down. Maybe we can close earth’s curtains and will fix it?
- Comment on YSK about StopICE.net to send and receive alerts about ICE raids in your area 1 week ago:
Not really, at least as long as the constitution is worth the paper it’s written on. But uh considering recent rulings, need to evaluate your own risk tolerance because who knows in future.

Steve Jobs would wear the exact same outfit, Every. Single. Day. That’s the kind of dedication needed, most people aren’t cut out for it.

- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 5 weeks ago:
Trump team is already walking it back after they started taking preorders and a journalist found the model. They’re now claiming they meant to say it could eventually be made in America. It’s a $170 Chinese phone they’re marking up to $500
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 5 weeks ago:
I believe the Made in USA Labeling Act passed 2021 would prevent following the Moto X approach of just final assembly, but I suppose it’s up to trump’s FTC to make the final call regardless, easy enough for them to issue an exception.
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 5 weeks ago:
“a sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States.”
Alright, so clearly this is a bald-face lie? How the hell can they claim this? What kind of made in america SOC are they using?

- Comment on The Daily Wire is now trying to pass off AI slop as actual footage from Palestine. 1 month ago:
I zoomed in on one frame - it’s a kind mess of abstract lines and smears, but it also could be AI enhancement with a modern phone, imo. I’d like additional supporting evidence as well.

What can we do, society is beyond cooked. Your friends, neighbors, colleagues, teachers, lawyers, many many people cannot identify a random still AI image right now, nevermind a fictional cohesive motion picture. They are unaware how far the tech has progressed and extent it’s become weaponized. What actually can be done?

This song was my first real exposure to “radio censorship”, was eye opening for me. The song is a metaphor for generational child abuse and a cry for help, fighting against the urge to descend into the same pattern themselves and breaking. and then the radio cut turned it into a damned anthem of violence removing the context.

- Comment on Android updates: thanks I hate it. 2 months ago:
OneUI 7 is visually a steaming pile of shit. Real “we have iPhone at home” vibes throughout. Specifically for me what they’ve done with icons, why cant i have white icons with dark mode?
Beta testers complained so much up to release how uncohesive everything is and Samsung constantly shut down feedback with “this doesn’t meet our design goals”. Surprise, now it hits general public and everyone still hates their goals. This won’t ruin them, but it defintely makes me reconsider Samsung going forward.
