I wonder if Israel bombed their kids if they would say it raises questions about the rationale.
- Comment on Nvidia Sales Jump 56%, a Sign the A.I. Boom Isn’t Slowing Down 2 weeks ago:
The bubble won’t pop. AI has become a national defense initiative. The only thing that will pop NVIDIA’s bubble is another chip designer coming out with something better. Maybe someone will use AI that ran on NVIDIA to build something else, therefore using NVIDIA to kill NVIDIA.

If a partner demand they have it on to prove they’re not cheating, then they should be looking for a different partner.

Absolutely not the case… I sense a bad case of Stockholm syndrome.
- Comment on Unless users take action, Android will let Gemini access third-party apps 2 months ago:
Yes, for the amount of hate Google gets… Which I think it is fair to be critical of any product that compromises privacy… I recently tried helping my mom clean up her iPhone, and seriously like 100x worse. Almost everything you do on Apple demands you have another Apple device. One of the worst experiences I’ve ever dealt with.

This really is a big part of it. A lot of Democrats weren’t upset about authoritarianism & fascism, they were upset it wasn’t their version.

What Israel is doing is very much Nazi like. But saying such will get you banned on Mastodon.social, and probably prosecuted in places like Germany.

I wouldn’t trust them to not randomly enable WiFi, but you can also use their modem but disable any built in WiFi on it & still use your own router. ISPs continue to try to bundle their modem & router, which gives them complete access to your home network. Some lucky people have found fiber providers that let them use their own SFP.

They’re referring to all the subsidized bureaucratic closed-source monopoly-spyware that they force you to buy for the NSA.

The government also wants you to believe that Hamas is running AI bot farms with fiber ethernet under all that ruble. But what they don’t warn you about:

I think the appropriate headline should be:
“Reddit in talks to embrace iris-scanning Orb to verify users created by man alleged by his own sister to have molested her throughout her childhood beginning at age 3.”
- Comment on YouTube’s new anti-adblock measures 2 months ago:
I have a Premium subscription, but I can give you an even bigger reason to never use YouTube. They actively push brain rot in their search. No matter what words I use to search for something, it is almost always the same results. Looking for nostalgic videos from the 90s? YT: “Here is the most recent brain rot on the Internet.”

Doesn’t bother me either. I honestly didn’t know spicy food making people shit was a thing. I always thought it was shitty food that caused spicy diarrhea.

Well, they are just 49,960 casualties short & counting of Israel’s claim of what is proportional in self-defense.

Smart. I wouldn’t trust any statements made on behalf of a genocidal supporting country either.
- Comment on My mom tells me I should cut dad off for cheating on her, am I a bad person for not wanting to do so? 3 months ago:
No you’re not wrong for wanting to keep your dad in your life. Any reputable family counselor would say your mom shouldn’t be asking you to pick a side. Your mom does need support though, but it isn’t your job. What your dad did sounds really hurtful to her, as it would be for most people. Maybe he is your best friend, but being a parent is more than being a friend. It means being a role model & wanting to teach things like honesty & respect, especially for the people you’re supposed to love.
Has your dad offered to pay for counseling for you to process these things & talk to a professional about? It sounds like you could probably use it. I don’t know how old you are, but given that you’re asking the question here & the way you’re asking leads me to believe you’d be much better off talking to a professional about it.

- Comment on The New York Times Just Published Some Bizarre Race Science About Asian Women 3 months ago:
With all non-due respect, you’re being dishonest & disingenuous.
Your first link is from 2018 titled, “A Day, a Life: When a Medic Was Killed in Gaza, Was It an Accident?” I’ll quote from the article:
“An investigation by The New York Times found that Ms. Najjar, and what happened on the evening of June 1, were far more complicated than either narrative allowed… The Palestinians trying to tear down the fence are risking their lives to make a point, knowing that the protests amount to little more than a public relations stunt…”
Now let’s see if they question Israel’s narratives the same way?
nytimes.com/…/israel-hamas-information-war.html
Titled “In a Worldwide War of Words, Russia, China and Iran Back Hamas” and I quote:
“Iran, Russia and, to a lesser degree, China have used state media and the world’s major social networking platforms to support Hamas and undercut Israel, while denigrating Israel’s principal ally, the United States… Cyabra has documented at least 40,000 bots or inauthentic accounts online since Hamas attacked Israel from Gaza on Oct. 7. The content — visceral, emotionally charged, politically slanted and often false — has stoked anger and even violence far beyond Gaza, raising fears that it could inflame a wider conflict.”
This is an opinion piece, right up there alongside:
The Genocide Charge Against Israel Is a Moral Obscenity: www.nytimes.com/…/israel-hamas-war-genocide.html
The Reason for an Israeli Curfew: Palestinian Terrorism: www.nytimes.com/2020/…/israel-palestinians.html
Where is the investigation? This is a video that wasn’t even taken by NYT. Regardless, for every 10 Israeli propaganda article, maybe one or two being slightly critical doesn’t mean jack shit.

Trump’s threats mean nothing. Prices are going up & billionaires are making more than ever. Remember he gave the biggest wealth transfer to the rich during COVID. That is what you’re seeing happening.

- Comment on The Windows Subsystem for Linux is now open source. 3 months ago:
Maybe. But Microsoft owns the workplace, so when you get a job they’ll demand you can only use Windows, or if you’re lucky enough to be allowed to use Linux, the Microsoft management software will suck so much you’ll want to use Windows. Microsoft is silently implementing their EEE strategy, and this is only a small part of that. Before long they’ll release their AI-focused cloud-connected Linux distro with Windows Desktop compatibility.

Yes, but even before you get to that point. Like I said they’ll fight dirty at first, so having assistance to even be able to get to that point requires community efforts.
