- Comment on Is OpenAI dead yet? 22 hours ago:
Their presentation at CES was as focused on enterprise AI as Nvidias was.
- Comment on 23 hours ago:
I know Americans are born with a fear of decimals. But that is not a phobia the rest of the world partakes in. With decimals there is an infinite amount of unit of measurement between freezing and boiling point of water, which according to your system makes celsius infinitely better than fahrenheit.
- Comment on 23 hours ago:
They are indeed very wrong. Their percentage is gauged for a very specific climate, and is entirely subjective. You may personally and subjectively think it suits you, but it is not objectively a better unit to use for weather in the slightest. It would make no sense where I live for example.
- Comment on 23 hours ago:
Spoken like somebody who doesn’t experience freezing degrees very often.
- Comment on 23 hours ago:
It is not average Earth temperature though.
- Comment on Microsoft Windows 365 goes down the day after Microsoft celebrates 'reimagining the PC as a cloud service that streams a Cloud PC' 3 days ago:
Shareholders are asking for it, noone else. Consumers are irrelevant serfs who doesn’t provide the majority of profits anyway, so it is inconsequential what they think.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Not the same at all though.
- Comment on Whoever invented the 12-hour clock never doubted that people will always know if it's day or night 1 week ago:
24 hour format when written
24 hour format when spoken
- Comment on Whoever invented the 12-hour clock never doubted that people will always know if it's day or night 1 week ago:
I don’t think it is clumsy at all, and use it all the time when speaking.
- Comment on Windows 11’s 2025 problems are getting impossible to ignore 3 weeks ago:
The update and driver problem is just one side of the multifacetted windows 11 problems though. The ads, spyware and AI (which is definitely going to get more invasive when they stop supporting windows 10 and they know they have a captive audience) is another great reason to abandon that OS.
- Comment on Check mate, atheists. 3 weeks ago:
Those “social benefits” are band-aids needed because of a non-functioning government solution like a non-fath based welfare state. The reason you don’t see them as much in functioning countries, is because they are needed much less.
- Comment on There's now more people that complain about AI then there is AI content on Lemmy 5 months ago:
AI seems to have dissolved your brain. You are not making any sense, even though you seem to think you are.
- Comment on Trump wanted a US-made iPhone. Apple gave him a gold statue. 5 months ago:
Because they know that that is really what he is. Everyone has him figured out now. That is why NATO and EU brownnoses him in front of journalists, or why Qatar “gifts” him an airplane.
- Comment on "ok, imagine a gun." 5 months ago:
There was once a theory that the reason for the difference in which side a vehicle is driving on the road today, stems from whether a country had many stretches of untamed wilderness with lots of bandits. So if there was a high likelihood that whoever you met on the road was a danger, the horsecart driver preferred passing them on the side of their sword arm (right hand as default), while if you did not have to take that into account, you would pass them on the left hand side.
The theory has now largely been abandonded as spurious, but it does remain a fact that there were dangerous stretches of roads in older times in Europe as well.
- Comment on Florida ounces 5 months ago:
No, none of that is true. You think it is easier to work with because it is what you are most used to. People who are only familiar with metric have absolutely no problem working with metric, and your “A foot is 12 inches, which has whole number factors of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. A yard is three feet” is basically goobledigook in that context.

It isn’t AI, it is just one of those facebook ragebait spam pictures which has flourished on the internet for decade now.

Sandwiches predates him as well.
- Comment on Why is coal and fossil fuels still used? 8 months ago:
Correction, because a group of rich and powerful vested interests exploit that ignorance for shortsighted profit.
- Comment on Must secure the castle 8 months ago:
Definitely
- Comment on So true 8 months ago:
Is there a specific reason that type of food is only available after swimming?
- Comment on Trump tells Canadians to Elect the guy who'll make them the 51st State of US [Canadian elections today] 8 months ago:

- Comment on Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads 8 months ago:
The message is aimed at his customers (ie. his advertisers), not for the potential users of the browser.
- Comment on China invites European countries to form united front against Trump tariffs 8 months ago:
Neuromancer as well (the book that is).
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
Kind of. The traditional estates didn’t provide an even remotely fair representation to the third estate, so the talking broke down before it even started, since the third estate just said “screw this, we are making our own convention” before the estates had actually convened.
- Comment on In heat 9 months ago:
As per form for these “AIs”.

Truth doesn’t matter to them, only power.

One can hope, but most US veterans would gladly volunteer to be members of his death squads as soon as they get that far in their takeover.
- Comment on Trump administration orders halt to in-progress wind farm construction 9 months ago:
Noone is a foreigner on the world wide web. It is mainly Americans who expect everyone else on the internet to be Americans.
