This gives me such a raw feeling of terror for what is otherwise an avoidable future.
- Comment on I finally decided to go full piracy against big companies 1 week ago:
I truly hate to even consider this, but indie games have already started to turn, and will start to go more towards the same issues. What valve did for gaming and capitalism in 2004, they need to undo or come up with a new solution or something, or maybe somebody else. I’m not sure if communism or anarchy or a new capitalism or a creative solution that fixes everything and makes everybody happy and is ethically sound and sustainable. But the amount of AI slop and desperation that current capitalism is fucking everybody with is only going to get worse. The “indie games are our salvation, our guiding light” was ten years ago, and AI is here to stay, for whatever effects and changes it brings, because it’s affecting literally all aspects of our lives because we live in a capitalistic society where tech and information is utilized by and affects the entire planet and every single human being, plant, and animal.

Yup, that’s what I’m doing… an rme fireface. Incredible device, but uses fw. And since Microsoft is a bunch of aholes, I have to figure out how best to go forwards post windows 10. Except since I’m poor it’s my main interface that I’ve upgraded to.

That’s fair. Thanks for being honest, at least.

- Comment on Notepad gets AI features like Summarize, Write, and Rewrite, using local and cloud models. 3 weeks ago:
Microsoft HAS to know that people who use notepad want lightweight, not bloat… Right? This HAS to be a joke or malice… And not THAT level of incompetence… Right? Right?

We need technology connections to make this experiment a reality
- Comment on Samsung brings ads to US fridges 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, but we do wildly inefficient stuff all the time
- Comment on Samsung brings ads to US fridges 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know why, but I remember seeing that somewhere, too. Fantastic idea. Ergonomic AND energy efficient. Though, I feel like adding in a mini door somewhat lowers the insulative abilities of the main door, so I’m not sure of the trade-off.
- Comment on Samsung brings ads to US fridges 3 weeks ago:
I’m a big fan of “make it actually better or leave it the fuck alone”

Best I can offer in the US is a spiraling rapid descent into fascism.

Yeah but imagine how cool stuff could be if companies didn’t 100% of the time ruin their inventions
- Comment on 'Borderlands 4 is a premium game made for premium gamers' is Randy Pitchford's tone deaf retort to the performance backlash: 'If you're trying to drive a monster truck with a leaf blower's motor, you're going to be disappointed' 4 weeks ago:
Yeah so, either the prices need to come down, or devs optimize for those price points. Or both. Because two thousand dollars for a gpu is ridiculous.

Can we please standardize a pc parts price point?
Like, “it doesn’t matter where technology is, $600 gets you ‘low’, &1000 gets you ‘high’, and $2000 gets you ‘ultra’.”

Worse drivers, more boat, more “telemetry” (spyware and adware), and it breaks everything.
Why the FUCK would I do that? Just to give microsoft more money? Go and FUCK yourself.
