  The picture of the still half-destroyed white house will do wonders in the upcoming partial election.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This long-term data storage will last 14 billion years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Best prank idea: Put someone’s browsing history on one of those.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨War Thunder is getting infantry combat⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know. I have a love-hate relationship with that game. I can’t stand playing online PvP anymore so I play their PvE mode and it is obvious that this mode doesn’t get any attention by the developers.

  On one hand it does fantastic land-air battles when the game doesn’t screw you over. On the other they can’t be bothered to follow one of the most basic rules of game design that is to make sure the players don’t get spawned into an unfair, instant-death situation, let alone trapping them in a spawn-death loop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft bows to user demand and makes Windows 11's AI Actions optional⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They’ll start forcing it again once they realize that only a minority of people are actually using it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m off to buy stock in bananas.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google's Agentic AI wipes user's entire HDD without permission in catastrophic failure⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Shit like that is why AI is completely unusable for any application where it cannot be allowed to fuck up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨After Windows Update, Password icon invisible, click where it used to be⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a multi billion dollar company. Fucking up worldwide updates like they’re running a high school project.

  And they want you to pay for that shit. And then pay again through bullshit subscriptions ads and harvesting your data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve dev counters calls to scrap Steam AI disclosures, says it's a "technology relying on cultural laundering, IP infringement, and slopification"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Gaben wins the internet once again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI says dead teen violated TOS when he used ChatGPT to plan suicide - Ars Technica⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Look up the phenomenon called “Chatbot Psychosis”. The chatbot can absolutely mess up someone’s head enough to push them to the act far beyond just answering the question of how to do it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI says dead teen violated TOS when he used ChatGPT to plan suicide - Ars Technica⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d say it’s more akin to a bread company saying that dying of food poisoning after eating their bread is a violation of terms of service.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨HP plans to save millions by laying off thousands, ramping up AI use⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We already knew that HP was a shit company. No change there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google’s Sundar Pichai says the job of CEO is one of the ‘easier things’ AI could soon replace⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What do you mean? That would be horrible!

  AI is great at pursuing the ideal you give it, in that case “make money”, and finding all sorts of counterintuitive ways to pursue that ideal the best it can with complete disregard to anything else that could distract from it including humanity’s interests and morality. It would destroy the planet just to make more money… oh wait no nevermind now I see CEOs do that already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me"⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The harder they’ll try to force feed it down their customer’s throats by making it increasingly prominent and obnoxiously insisting in the interface, the more people will hate it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3167: Car Size⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What I want to feel safe on the roads is the Ramp Buggy from GTA Online.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11 Finally Fixes "Update and Shut Down" Functionality After a Decade⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Great. Now bring back Windows 7

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Breakthrough gel can regenerate tooth enamel within weeks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re telling me I’ve been brushing twice a day all my life for nothing?

  Man, what a bummer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft's role in world’s first AI-driven genocide, in Gaza, exposed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This image makes the Windows logo look like a political alignment chart and now I can’t unsee it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Please drink the verification can

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  People in the 80’s: “In the year 2025 we’re going to have hoverboards and flying cars!”

  2025: “I can’t use my bed because the servers are down”

  Never buy anything that needs to be connected to a server to work for no good reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bitey mcbitebite⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Tastes like cat pictures with overwhelming overtones of porn

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨excuse me????⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to be confused with the horniest dinosaur

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Battlefield 6 releases today and it will not be playable on any Linux / SteamOS system⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh no.

  Anyway,

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I suppose it's better to find this out 35 years later than never at all.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Does it work with more than two?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When a person gains weight and keeps the weight on for a long time, is that old fat in your body, or does the fat get replaced over time?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That opens the door to new insults such as “You so fat your fat cells are the size of grapes”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's official: EA is going private.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No idea, I refused to even entertain the idea to purchase it after they pressured everyone to buy it by putting them at a disadvantage against those who bought it and even kicking them out of a server if it changed maps to an SF map.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's official: EA is going private.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  EA has been dead to me since the mid 2000’s when they turned Battlefield 2, which I had purchased at full price, into a severely unbalanced Pay-To-Win game.

  It only went downhill since then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft blocks Israel’s use of its technology in mass surveillance of Palestinians⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hypocritical at best

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get ready to see ads on your… Samsung refrigerator⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Samsung make shit appliances that are particularly non-repairable anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨KDE Frameworks 6.18 Lets You Use Your Laptop's Copilot Key for Launching Apps⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Microsoft: “We’ll pay manufacturers to add a new key specifically for our latest unwanted feature that we’re trying to shove down people’s throats.”

  Linux users: “Cool, a new key that we can use for actually useful things”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11 may nag you now when your Microsoft 365 subscription expires⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  "But I don’t like how the icons in Libre Office look different to what I’m used to"

  • Some people who still stick to MS Office.
