  Nothing, and it’s already run by web3 folk

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft builds first datacenters with wood to slash carbon emissions⁩ ⁨⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Like making a datacenter so hungry it needs an obsolete nuclear plant, yeah.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft builds first datacenters with wood to slash carbon emissions⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you propose some alchemy that transforms carbon to another element? Remove carbon from the atmosphere and stop putting more up in there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft builds first datacenters with wood to slash carbon emissions⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Too bad all that cool stuff is negligible compared to what actually makes a difference

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI tool that sounds like elderly grandmother created to waste scammers' time⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s amazing how simple something like this can be and still be effective.

  Machine learning is not that necessary for this use case 😉

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And 299999999 is divisible by 13⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Phew, for a moment I worried that 2.9999… was divisible by 7 and I woke up in some kind of alternate universe

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How long do you think we'll keep seeing "formerly Twitter"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I see what you did there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feedback about our name: someone's concerns on sharing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  On my client I can either share the canonical URL or “share as image” and I choose which one based on context

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feedback about our name: someone's concerns on sharing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You got it lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I benchmarked 6 different metal USB sticks⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t see anyone else say this so I’ll chime in: when I’ve had to keep bulky things on a keyring (a CPR pocket mask comes to mind) I’ll put it on its own small keyring and then hang that on the main keyring with the keys. It isn’t a perfect solution, but it helps a lot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon's Death Machine (aka Tesla) Mows Down Deer at Full Speed , Keeps Going on "Autopilot"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why does this read like an ad for cybertrucks for people who would want to run over deer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit is profitable for the first time ever, with nearly 100 million daily users⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My sister and her friends use Reddit now for things that they never did before.

  I hate feeling like the things I called about (3rd party apps, my comments not being used in AI, etc) just don’t matter for the majority of people, and Reddit is being rewarded monetarily for getting rid of people like me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Matrix 2.0 Is Here!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved the one with downloading martial arts directly into your brain

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Matrix 2.0 Is Here!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Too much in the open source community is people saying this is great! Always has been. You shouldn’t crap on people being honest about the problems that have existed, because track record is important

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Matrix 2.0 Is Here!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t telegram a for-profit company?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Matrix 2.0 Is Here!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Great because I hated matrix 1, hopefully two will be better

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Colours of Blood⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Red, the blood of angry men

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple’s first Mac mini redesign in 14 years looks like a big aluminum Apple TV⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to buy Macs when I was a teenager and young adult, but finally grew tired of the “my way or the highway” approach to design.

  Windows is guilty of this too, but it’s more subtle, but getting worse all the time with w11.

  Linux has more of a “you break it, you buy it” approach to design lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted alternative to google keep/onenote/evernote/goodnotes?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is what I use

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted alternative to google keep/onenote/evernote/goodnotes?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I use nextcloud notes because I already have nextcloud and my needs are not that sophisticated

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help Mozilla Test the Thunderbird for Android Beta | Mozilla Thunderbird is an open-source, privacy-focused email app⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Perhaps less AI in Mozilla?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Secret calculator hack brings ChatGPT to the TI-84, enabling easy cheating⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My memory is pretty hazy but the cheat application emulated the process that teachers used to do a system reset.

  Iirc, it let you press menu, select reset, confirm, and showed the (fake) confirmation screen.

  Also IIRC, you had to install it from Mirage OS, which I don’t think was an OS (?) but rather an app that everyone had to play games from.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Secret calculator hack brings ChatGPT to the TI-84, enabling easy cheating⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They did that here too, but students would use a cheat program that made it look like teachers were resetting it, but really the memory was safe

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can it get any more obvious⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What more can I say

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So professional looking it must be true⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I try to buy it a day old and then freeze it. It kind of sucks
