Yet still 100% wouldn’t date a “short” guy.
- Comment on AI Elections 2 weeks ago:
Sadly, a lot of Americans couldn’t name the states correctly either.

General rule amongst those groups: “If you can’t be good, be loud.”
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 3 weeks ago:
My theory is free publicity. Just like the fashion industry comes up with ridiculous clothes that no one would ever wear, attention whores will constantly do outrageous things so that people will talk about them. The number of electrons spilled over this stupid mouse port placement over the years is uncountable. But it keeps Apple in the public consciousness as a fashionista.
- Comment on How do our brains process reality? I heard our eyes were just low-res cameras and our brains were doing all the heavy lifting in 'rendering' reality. 1 month ago:
My bowels have been questioning a lot lately, so it’s not entirely without precedent.
- Comment on OpenAI Execs Mass Quit as Company Removes Control From Non-Profit Board and Hands It to Sam Altman 1 month ago:
Sam Altman is demonstrating the power of AI. He’s showing how a single CEO can fire the entire company and continue to develop the product to be even better than when humans were involved.
“OpenAI. No real humans involved!” ™
- Comment on Since cats don't pant like dogs how do they release trapped heat? 1 month ago:
Easy.
The dog on the right is wearing pants. Two covered legs = Pa(ir) + nts = ‘Pants’.
The dog on the left is wearing quants. Four covered legs = Qua(d) + nts = ‘Quants”.
Two different clothing items.
- Comment on Infinity 1 month ago:
The Earth’s orbit is an ellipse, not a circle, and therefore the Earth speeds up or slows down depending on where on its orbit it is at the time
That’s it! Thank you.

So can someone who is more familiar with this subject answer, “Are these pictures taken at the same time of day with or without seasonal adjustments to time (Daylight Savings Time, etc.)?”
I understand why the sun would move vertically over the year due to the tilt of the Earth, but what causes the horizontal movement?
- Comment on Infinity 1 month ago:
Wait. Is that one turtle per dimension, one turtle per universe, or one turtle that lives inside each black hole that’s really just a wormhole to another dimension/universe?
- Comment on Amazon cloud boss echoes NVIDIA CEO on coding being dead in the water: "If you go forward 24 months from now, it's possible that most developers are not coding" 2 months ago:
Sure, Microsoft is happy to let their AIs scan everyone else’s code., but is anyone aware of any software houses letting AIs scan their in-house code?
Any lawyer worth their salt won’t let AIs anywhere near their company’s proprietary code intil they are positive that AI isn’t going to be blabbing the code out to every one of their competitors.
But of course, IANAL.
- Comment on YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers 2 months ago:
No, this can’t be. They took all of our personal information so they could use AI to tailor ads to exactly what we wanted at any given moment.

- Comment on Lemmy votes ARE public, should they be anonymous? 2 months ago:
1 I had assumed votes were private 2 If I don’t hear soon that votes are private, I’ll simply stop participating and return to lurking. I’ll eventually just wander off to the next thing that doesn’t expose my votes to potential bots and/or abusive actors.
- Comment on ‘Sinkclose’ Flaw in Hundreds of Millions of AMD Chips Allows Deep, Virtually Unfixable Infections 3 months ago:
Not too unusual. There have been a lot of new vulnerabilities announced lately. A few months ago they announced one that exposed all (?) mainstream CPUs, even Apple’s new chips.
Some of the vulns are serious, but many require very specific circumstances to actually work. - Comment on Samsung delivers 600-mile solid-state EV battery as it teases 9-minute charging and 20-year lifespan tech 3 months ago:
Yes, Teslas can charge at 250 kW, but they do not sustain that charging rate for long. As the battery charges, its charging rate drops. If newer battery technologies can sustain the higher charge rates longer, they could theoretically store more charge in less time.
- Comment on Remember guys: The frenulum is just for friends. 3 months ago:
Frens only.
- Comment on Why is Intel failing to Nvidia and AMD? 4 months ago:
You’re not wrong. I’d argue the iPhone was quite innovative. I laughed when I heard Apple was gonna take on Nokia. Nokia was a juggernaut at the time. Apple presented Nokia’s proverbial head two years later. Quite the turnover. Apple is still living off iPhone profits 15+ years later.
- Comment on Why is Intel failing to Nvidia and AMD? 4 months ago:
When one of your medium-sized customers felt the need to build their own processor design team, you’re in trouble. When their new design beats yours, you’re done.

The fastest way to save money is to stop spending money. Shut down the business and sell everything off brings in billions and costs nothing. Pure profit and I get huge bonuses! — Most financial/Wall St vultures
- Comment on Restaurant in NYC offshores cashier job to Philippines so they can pay below minimum wage ($3/hr in Philippines) 4 months ago:
I’m honestly surprised the corps haven’t done this to all of their drive-thrus.
- Comment on “Immensely disappointing”: Nike killing app for $350 self-tying sneakers 4 months ago:
“I’ve got to leave early.”
“Why? We’re having fun!”

Hope they like it unwashed. Ain’t gonna be no showers in WWIII.
- Comment on Netflix Starts Booting Subscribers Off Cheapest Basic Ads-Free Plan 4 months ago:
Yup. It was the same enshittification process. “Subscribe to cable. We don’t have commercials!” Then a few years later, “Guess what?!? You’re getting commercials!”
- Comment on Netflix Starts Booting Subscribers Off Cheapest Basic Ads-Free Plan 4 months ago:
Cable is dead! Long live Cable!

How does one set up such a filter?
- Comment on Top post in the conservative subreddit: Being unable to work at a "woke" company 4 months ago:
Agreed. Want to add that (in my opinion, at least) Lucas’s Episodes I, II & III didn’t do the series any favors either. :-(
- Comment on My mom's doctor be like 4 months ago:
AI has failed so many times it has joined the junkpile of online personalities that are so bad we can no longer tell the difference between their actual errors and those created as sarcasm.

- Comment on Dell said return to the office or else—nearly half of workers chose “or else” 4 months ago:
Yup. It’s the same fucked-up psychology corps use for their customers. Like running ads for super discounts for new customers. Existing customers that have never missed a payment? Fuck-em. Instead of giving 1% “thank you” for good customers, corps would rather lose the good customers and pay a premium to find new ones.
So it goes.
