- Comment on The ‘doorman fallacy’: why careless adoption of AI backfires so easily 13 minutes ago:
I go to plenty of places don’t have doormen and prefer the experience. Did you read the description of the fallacy? The doorman fallacy is based on c suite execs making a decision that they don’t have personal experience with.

Nope. But that’s another person I can happily do without
- Comment on We own the hardware, but not the experience anymore — Big Tech keeps building smarter, more connected devices, but the user experience feels more intrusive, more confusing, and less human 11 hours ago:
Exactly. I almost feel like many are hungry for something new and different. So much so, that you give them something completely useless like an Ai widget, and they are willing to accept it to scratch an innovation itch.

They’ve been really holding back until now.

Instead of 3d printing something? What are you the 3d printing antichrist?!

I agree with the message here, but man does this anology fail with me. Hotel door men are just another pressure point for tipping for service I really don’t want / need 99% of the time. An automatic door and a smart luggage cart that follows me to my room would be much preferred.
- Comment on China Is Banning Tesla-Style Retractable Door Handles Over Safety Concerns 12 hours ago:
There is a large demand for Teslas in China believe it or not. Very possible this is just motivated by trying to favor Chinese automakers more so than out of genuine safety concerns.

Is this the history behind the glutton free diet?
- Comment on Survey reveals most people are holding onto their phones for a long time, and it makes sense 5 days ago:
Phone manufactures - noted: Not enough to just lose battery life and performance. In new economy it really needs to be built to fail hard.
- Comment on Survey reveals most people are holding onto their phones for a long time, and it makes sense 5 days ago:
Didn’t read article, but is every other year what we are considering a ‘long time?’ That’s what I consider a long time for some hard cheeses, but certainly not a phone.

Does that even use a GPU?

Your best sarcastic self is prime Microsoft material.

Wouldn’t it be cool if you could have AI on the desktop clock so you could ask it what time it was in different places in the world?

All the merh boards are just too political now.
- Comment on It just keeps getting worse - Firefox to "evolve into a modern AI browser" 1 week ago:
In a way, don’t you think it’s weird that Google is funding Mozilla (and by your logic basically endorsing it) and yet you’re not using it?
In what way? I don’t understand this. I want to be as far away from Google as I reasonably can without cutting my nose off to spite their face.
This reflexive chromium bad mentality really blinds people to what Vivaldi is doing. You don’t seem to understand for example the manifest 2 changes have not affected Vivaldi and that they have pledged to prevent that for as long as they can. My u block works just as well as yours but my websites load faster and I have a development team that is anti AI not trying to shove slop at every upgrade.
- Comment on Counterintuitively, I did this to eliminate the need for supports 1 week ago:
There any good software that helps automatically select the best edge to use a print base that looks at minimizing supports as a key variable?
- Comment on ICE Contracts Company Making Bounty Hunter AI Agents 1 week ago:
Yeah history most certainly going to look favorably back upon the time when the USA spent tens of millions to terrorize its own citizens and working class in the name of hostile ethnic cleansing. Sure it might sound harsh when we are doing it, but give it a few years and when everyone is rich and safe and happy here because of this, it will all make perfect sense retrospectively. If you don’t get it, you’re just not a 3D chess player I guess, amiright?
- Comment on It just keeps getting worse - Firefox to "evolve into a modern AI browser" 1 week ago:
My 1st goal is to have a good browser experience without Ai crap and have my privacy reasonably respected. Read up on Vivaldi if you question whether their goals align with these.
My second goal is to save the world, but I’m not going to use a crud AI browser like Firefox (which btw is funded by Google anyway) so I can feel superior.
- Comment on It just keeps getting worse - Firefox to "evolve into a modern AI browser" 1 week ago:
Super pleased with Vivaldi

- Comment on HDD prices spike as AI infrastructure and China's PC push collide — hard drives record biggest price increase in eight quarters, suppliers warn pressure will continue 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, my trick is to save up and try to buy the 2nd best components as much as possible. The very best will always have a shiny new thing tax attached to them, but 2nd best is where the real value comes in. Granted I’m not building gaming pcs, so this isn’t too unreasonable. The current market won’t let me get close to what I’d actually like though.

Other is really taking off in 2025. Should we invest in other?

I’ve been putting off building a new pc. More and more it looks like my 10 year old machine has got a few more years left in it.

Great post. Looking forward to a more secure fediverse. This more important now than ever.
- Comment on Africa’s New Data Dependency – Technology Colonialism 2 weeks ago:
Wow, reading the blurb underneath the photo was just a string of buzzwords with no clear meaning. The real motives here are almost certainly sinister. Nigeria is no stranger to foreign tax abuse and this sounds like just a more creative strategy to achieve age old goals of control and profit
- Comment on A new ‘solution’ to student homelessness: a parking lot where students can sleep safely in their cars 2 weeks ago:
You sound so incredibly ungrateful. You are probably the same kind of person that goes around saying that children in public schools should just be given meals to eat while at school even if they can’t afford to pay for them.
- Comment on Marco Rubio bans Calibri font at State Department for being too DEI 2 weeks ago:
Can’t they ever accidentally even make a good change? I’m a big fan of Calibri. It was maybe the only good thing to come out of Vista. It’s very comfortable to read and works as both a professional and casual look. I guess if anything hopefully this will empower it as the font of the resistance. When I get around to it, I’m going g to see if I can force my WordPress site to web font Calibri.
