- Comment on Anubis, The Opensource Defender Against AI Bots: I fight bots in my free time 2 days ago:
I use the lynx browser sometimes, for hacker news, some blogs that I follow, or just for a quick browse to find an answer.
The fact that more and more websites need to use this kind of protection is saddening me, since lynx doesn’t support JavaScript.
That’s just another reason why I fucking hate AI.
I don’t hate it, I /fucking/ hate AI.
- Comment on Get Your Filthy ChatGPT Away From My Liberal Arts 3 days ago:
Ironically, this text seems to be written by an A.I.
Check the quotes ’ vs the curved ’ the AI are using.
The multiple long dash… And the lack of substance of the whole text…

Apparently, throwing more data at it will not help much from now on… But anyway what they’re saying, I can’t trust the snake oil seller, he is suspicious…

Without this case, Apple could get away with behavior in the US that is already outlawed in the European Union.

Check the quotes too: ’ vs ʼ
AI will use the curved one, human type the straight one.
Also for the doubled one: " vs ”…

What does the article say more than the title?
Nothing, each paragraph is a remash of the previous saying nothing more than the title.
That’s AI filling up a white page with words.
- Comment on Are AI Bots Knocking Cultural Heritage Offline? 3 weeks ago:
Yes.
I can’t use lynx for most of the sites I am used to go with it. They are all protecting themselves with captcha and other form of javascript computation.
The net is dying.
Fucking thank you AI-bullshitery…

You might need a little bit of degoogleizer.
In a small dose, it eases the pain, but with the right treatment, your life will become yours again.
- Comment on ChatGPT 'got absolutely wrecked' by Atari 2600 in beginner's chess match — OpenAI's newest model bamboozled by 1970s logic 4 weeks ago:
Fair point.
I liked the “upgraded autocompletion”, you know, an completion based on the context, just before the time that they pushed it too much with 20 lines of non sense…
Now I am thinking of a way of doing the thing, then I receive a 20 lines suggestion.
So I am checking if that make sense, losing my momentum, only to realize the suggestion us calling shit that don’t exist…
Screw that.

- Comment on Scientists discover that feeding AI models 10% 4chan trash actually makes them better behaved 4 weeks ago:
it will have the advantage that academia is left leaning, meaning the model can cite widely recognized studies.
I was looking for the person saying a particular quote yesterday.
I asked 3 times the same question and I got 3 different people.
The funny part us I had the quote wrong.
Bullshit all the way down.

And yet everybody is selling to write code.
The last time I checked, coding was requiring logic.

- Comment on Java at 30: How a language designed for a failed gadget became a global powerhouse 5 weeks ago:
I am going to be decapitated for this, but you’re totally right.
You only have to look at Rust. An horrible language with a massive hype machine and an army of zealots pushing it everywhere.
I can’t understand how people are complaining about the java boiler plate and its verbosity, while promoting Rust every time they can.
- Comment on Java at 30: How a language designed for a failed gadget became a global powerhouse 5 weeks ago:
For your information, since java 10, 2018, 7 years ago, it’s
var thing = Thinglike most languages.You should update your java knowledge.
- Comment on Companies are using Ribbon AI, an AI interviewer to screen candidates. 5 weeks ago:
Add to this the cost fallacy, where they have put so much money to embrace the “AI” bullshit.
And on the top of that, did you ever see a CEO or someone in power admitting their fault and say: “yeah guys, I was wrong all along, let’s fix this, I am sorry.”
They will double down on that until bankruptcy and blame the incels, the gamers, the work force, the weather but not themselves.
- Comment on Google is going ‘all in’ on AI. It’s part of a troubling trend in big tech 5 weeks ago:
TPM is a secure part, a cryptoprocessor with some memory, isolated from everything else, very basically.
It stores keys and other sensitive data, like your “hello windows pin”… Or any other PIN if you want…
This secure “box” can also be used for DRM by using the secure nature of the TPM to store the keys, or to encrypt the harddisk of your work laptop. Multiple of uses really. It’s kind of like all piece of technology, it seems like.
At that point, it’s like you are saying that encryption is bad because it can be used for DRM or validate if a piece of software is valid or not.
The TPM by itself isn’t bad or related to privacy invasion. Nor the internet or a browser is only used to spy on you.
There is a limit to the conspiracy…
- Comment on Google is going ‘all in’ on AI. It’s part of a troubling trend in big tech 5 weeks ago:
You are arguing for the sake of arguing…
TPM has nothing to do with any privacy invasion, AI, or anything bad really. It was conceived by a computer industry consortium called Trusted Computing Group (TCG). It evolved into TPM Main Specification Version 1.2 which was standardized by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
Advancement in technology will always happen, and if your prose is to stop progress, you are up by your own by your own choice. Your argument about TPM is moot.
Quite a lot if banking apps are compatible. If your banking app doesn’t work, use the jail/sandbox compatible mode.
The fact that Linux has 2, 3, 4, 64467% has nothing to do with what is available at your disposal. Strawman fallacy here.
No one talked about hosting your own email server, there are alternative to the fucker-corps with privacy in mind.
You, my friend, are already defeated, but rest assured there are a ton of us still on our feet.

Nothing I can do to resist?
Microsoft is shoving this copilot in all its products? Alright, Linux and open source it is.
Google is bugging with its spyware? Well, I only use a Pixel phone, and ironically, its the best phone to put GrapheneOS on it.
Gmail? I don’t remember when I opened mine the last time…
All what’s really remaining right now is a good YouTube alternative.

- Comment on Developer Builds Tool That Scrapes YouTube Comments, Uses AI to Predict Where Users Live 1 month ago:
YouTube-Tools also appears to be a violation of YouTube’s privacy policies, and raises questions about what YouTube is doing to stop the scraping and repurposing of peoples’ data like this. “Public search engines may scrape data only in accordance with YouTube’s robots.txt file or with YouTube’s prior written permission,” it says.
Yeah right Google, scrape people at will, scrape artists copyrighted material without approbations or repercussions, and you dare to tell us to obey your little concerns…
Fuck off will ya
