Picking up a few pages out of Elmo’s book I see. He forgot the part where he distracts from the blatant underdelivery with more empty exaggerated promises!
- Comment on Tesla offers pay package to CEO Elon Musk that could be worth up to $1 trillion 1 week ago:
There used to be a time when paying your CEO too much was considered uncouth.
He’s essentially pocketing all that government subvention money Tesla has been receiving.

They announced that they were working on a new system that would depart from the MMU3 for the core one.
- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 2 weeks ago:
I’m personally keeping an eye on Prusa. They’re working on a new multi-filament system for their new Core One printer and it might be worth the wait.
It is pricier because it is made in Europe but at least the company has a solid reputation for more ethical business practices than whatever enshitification hell Bambu is heading down the road towards.
- Comment on Bambu Lab announces the Vortek H2C, an automatic nozzle-changing version of the H2D 2 weeks ago:
Snapmaker beat them to it with a much simpler design and it does not have the mechanical connector issue they’re trying to insinuate they have simply because the toolheads are always connected.
Also Bambu has completely lost all trust from everyone by taking obvious steps towards anti-consumer features.

The online services tax
- Comment on Trump threatens tariffs on countries that ‘discriminate’ against US tech 2 weeks ago:
I’m still pissed that Canada dropped theirs. It’s not discriminatory, it’s for all online services. Trump just wants to make his tech billionaire friends happy.

- Comment on Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery 5 weeks ago:
When I’m browsing around with multiple tabs open, the last thing I want is something to start moving them around and messing my flow up. This is a solution looking for a problem.
- Comment on ChatGPT Is Still a Bullshit Machine 5 weeks ago:
The whole technology is based on a flawed simulation of intelligence. It has no understanding of the meaning of what it is saying. It will always be bullshitting.

Imagine being run over by a truck because the driver was trying to skip an ad
- Comment on Google search boss says AI isn’t killing search clicks 5 weeks ago:
Search clicks were dead already from 9 out of the top 10 results being AI generated SEO garbage that contains information that is blatantly false. AI just gives you that garbage erroneous info right there without having to click anything.
- Comment on ‘Not what our roads are built for’: Trump’s hope to see more US cars in Tokyo, London is a hard sell 5 weeks ago:
You can’t spend 30 seconds in Tokyo and not realize that large North American-style vehicles will not work there. There is no space. The very few Tokyoites who are fortunate enough to be able afford a house with a parking spot will still have just enough space to park a Kei car in it with only a few centimetres to spare.
They will not buy US cars because unless you are extremely rich you can’t afford to live with one there.

The best part is that for the article Valve supplied a picture of Blue Scout standing speechless in front of pornographic pictures of his mom, as the punch line of the best “your mom” joke to ever exist.
- Comment on 'Clanker' is social media's new slur for our robot future 1 month ago:
Elon Musk’s Optimus robot has been coming to work in factories “by the end of the year” for over five years now.
It’s just another unsubstantiated promise he reuses every year just like the long promised full autonomy of his self-driving cars.
- Comment on Tesla Robotaxi Stops Mid-Intersection After Running a Red Light… The Influencer Onboard Calls It “Impressive” 1 month ago:
It didn’t just “Run a red light”, it downright attempted a left turn in a lane meant to drive through. They’re just lucky that the incoming traffic was stopped when it happened or they might have been t-boned.

If a death threat doesn’t leave an impression, what will?
- Comment on AI video is invading YouTube Shorts and Google Photos starting today 1 month ago:
They’re designed to keep people with poor impulse control caught in a constant loop of short garbage clips. A bigger screen is not going to change that.
Also I don’t normally watch YouTube on my phone unless I’m travelling and when I do I use NewPipe.
