Now is a great time to lobby the companies you work for to get them to dump Windows and switch everything to Unix/FOSS/etc wherever possible.

Yay, a bunch of used gear. Hold me back.
- Comment on AI boom could falter without wider adoption, Microsoft chief Satya Nadella warns 2 weeks ago:
but what about FORCING everyone to use the product whether they want to use it or not? I heard that if you’re powerful enough there’s no need to ask permission, “they let you do it.”

then maybe we should focus on destroying the more difficult targets first, instead of the defenseless targets like children and homeless people.

if the tech company is lucky, they can sell whatever their product is to customers. Only issue is, there’s not enough customers eager enough to part with their money. A pyramid scheme fails if it can’t hang losses on consumers.

The music did get repetitive, but that went for any C64 games that had background music. All of the tunes from Ultima IV are still burned into my brain after MONTHS of playing that game.
- Comment on Can someone find a redeeming factor about this game? Like anything good about it. 4 months ago:
Seconded. I played this on the C64 for a month or so. The intro voice saying Ghostbusters and laughing was pretty surprising given the tech (Impossible Mission also had really good voice samples but you had to complete the whole game to hear the best ones). I also enjoyed watching the bouncing ball on the lyrics (and one of my parents told me about Mitch Miller doing the same kind of thing decades before that).

How was the 2600 version impressive? I can’t imagine a 2600 version of anything being impressive, so I have to ask.

T_mobile doesn’t force its users to get their credit card, or force them to use it, or force them to enlist their friends and family to get one.
If Big Tech has their way, all of these things and Andy Rooney will be yours in less than 60 minutes.

- Comment on Meta whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams says company targeted ads at teens based on their ‘emotional state’ 9 months ago:
a) yes
b) what I find really concerning is that they may have already figured out how to change people’s behaviour: what they think is funny, what they think is appropriate to say/do, where they want to travel to (if at all), how they feel about certain celebrities they like or dislike, what is believable or not believable, how they feel about certain politicians, who to vote for. Some people are probably more easy to sway on certain topics than others are. It’s not a stretch to guess that they probably already know various paths to make individuals into something they currently are not.
