- Comment on After viral interview, Palantir launches neurodivergent fellowship 1 week ago:
The way I read this is that they’re trying to weaponize autism. They see people who are neurodivergent as a resource they can tap into.
- Comment on An Apple fan says they lost '20 years of digital life' after using an Apple gift card 1 week ago:
Indeed. No one ever thinks that something like this would happen to them, until it does.
This article needs to be shared and reshared as much as possible so people understand the dangers of putting your faith in a large corporation like that.
- Comment on An Apple fan says they lost '20 years of digital life' after using an Apple gift card 1 week ago:
You try reading articles before commenting on them. Because as the person you’re commenting too stated they purchased the gift card themselves.
- Comment on LG Update Installs Unremovable Microsoft Copilot on Smart TVs, Ignites Backlash 1 week ago:
This right here is the answer. There are so many devices you can plug into those things that you don’t really need the crap that they installed natively.

I’m sorry but what was wrong with Zootopia? I thought that movie was quite excellent.
- Comment on Disney Invests $1 Billion in the AI Slopification of Its Brand 1 week ago:
I will bet you a million bucks that Disney put a clause in there that Sora would not be able to generate Disney porn.

They are clearly in the pockets of Microsoft.
- Comment on Evidence That Humans Now Speak in a Chatbot-Influenced Dialect Is Getting Stronger 2 weeks ago:
If you read the actual article there’s barely any evidence that any of what they are claiming is even remotely true. They talk about vague connections through certain words being used on YouTube that are, in their own words, inconclusive. And a bunch of anecdotal instances on reddit in which mods use “vibes” to detect AI slop comments and posts. And then finish with more anecdotes about some real world encounters that they think are written by AI.
I mean, no doubt that AI garbage is filtering into online discourse because let’s face it, people are lazy assholes who want easy karma and updoots. But this is hardly evidence that actual conversational language is being altered by AI.

I have no sympathy for a company that makes their employees work on Christmas Eve.

- Comment on Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead 3 weeks ago:
Dude I have DIMMS that I bought in fucking 1999. Who the fuck throws away RAM???
- Comment on Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead 3 weeks ago:
I am really beginning to fucking hate AI. Like, before I just didn’t care for it, it just wasn’t really my interest. But now I’m really beginning to fucking despise that shit and I really can’t wait to see the “AI economy” completely fucking destroyed.

Parentheses first then Division or Multiplication then add or subtract. PEDMAS
8-5= 3 3*5=15 15+2=17
- Comment on Insulin 4 weeks ago:
They also don’t make insulin the way that he did back then. Not justifying the price hike cause the way its made now is way cheaper that it was with the old method (which was basically grinding up animal parts to extract insulin). These fucks are just profiting off of the suffering of Americans who have literally no choice but to use their drug.
- Comment on RAM is so expensive that stores are selling it at market prices 4 weeks ago:
LoL, LLM’s aren’t capable of being “competent” at anything. Not law, not teaching, not even coding. They are pure garbage at nearly everything they are applied to. Yes, some of these things have had some limited success are finding patterns in the noise. But those successes are grossly outweighed by the absolute failure of them to do anything else.

- Comment on Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out 4 weeks ago:
I think it’s cute how everyone thinks that just by clicking the little opt-out button they’re actually going to magically not have already fed your entire email backlog into their massive AI database. 😂
But hey, scouts honor, if you click that opt-out button they promise never to use any of your new emails in their constant information scape of your life.

- Comment on Google CEO: If an AI bubble pops, no one is getting out clean 5 weeks ago:
Actually it’s more about the how. The people betting against the housing market put their chips down as early as 2005. They just had to find a way to profit from it.
- Comment on Google CEO: If an AI bubble pops, no one is getting out clean 5 weeks ago:
Make no mistake. Just like the housing bubble of 2007 and 2008 there are people poised and ready to make tons of money off of the deflation of the AI bubble.

I think it’s cute you believe that we live in a world where financial crimes are actually prosecuted.
- Comment on iRobot’s revenue has tanked and it’s almost out of cash | "Roomba customers are understandably concerned about the impact these current financial troubles might have on their home cleaning robots." 5 weeks ago:
This potential dilemma just further highlights that cloud-connected devices should be enhanced by connectivity, not reliant on it.
This should be everyone’s takeaway.
The problem isn’t the company possibly going out of business, its the loss of online service nerfing the device that is the real issue.
- Comment on Peter Thiel dumps entire Nvidia stake, slashes Tesla holdings amid bubble fears 5 weeks ago:
My bet is that he’s trying to start a panic in the markets. That way he can clean up on a short.

- Comment on Subnautica 2 and InZoi publishers announce voluntary layoff program "amid the era of AI transformation" 5 weeks ago:
That’s true as this is it doesn’t alleviate the fact that the company is a rotten mess. They are rushing to embrace generative AI and firing any and all employees who aren’t on board with that. I think it’s safe to say that this company going forward is going to be putting out absolute garbage. This likely includes Subnautica 2, not because the developers are skimping or using generative AI but because the publishing company is attempting to put the cart before the horse. And in doing so they are setting things up for a tremendous failure.
