- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 3 days ago:
Did it last month. Just open your mind like a flower in the morning, and it will only hurt a little.
- Comment on How, and why, are there so many AI-generated videos of incredibly obscure/niche topics? 5 days ago:
Everyone who wants to make money from YouTube ads. I don’t think there is a big conspiracy to discover here.
- Comment on Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber wants an AI agent in every board meeting 1 week ago:
Read her bio page at Logitech. Looks like she got into a leader role because she previously had a leader role. She is in the best case some CEO who brings “value” to a company, but she has zero background relevant to computers, software, hardware or peripheral.
I don’t see how she would have first hand experience with her product line.

Remember when Elon said how self driving would make roads safer?
- Comment on Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber wants an AI agent in every board meeting 1 week ago:
Why pay a big salary to the CEO when you can have chatgpt as your CEO for only $20 a month?

Yeah, every time I use my mouse I think “man I really wish this was an subscription service!”
- Comment on Any advice for me a guy turning 18 yo old?? 1 week ago:
Before you get a career, live and work in another country or travel on a budget for a year. See other places, meet new people, learn lots of new things and get out of your comfort zone. Some people just walk or bike across a continent with a tent.
You won’t be able to do it later in life when you have a job, family and commitments.
- Comment on Microsoft just changed where your Word documents live — here’s why it matters 2 weeks ago:
As a us organization you can choose between different MS cloud tiers. I know about 3, the basic tier for private customers, tier4 for large corporations and tier 5 for us gov and military organizations. My guess would be that it has something to do with which 3 letter agency can access your cloud data.

Also some shady company can get full access to my photos, contacts, call history, location data etc. when I use their app to remind me to buy tomatoes and eggs.its just how things are in 2025 🤷
- Comment on The Great Software Quality Collapse: How We Normalized Catastrophe 2 weeks ago:
You never worked onrold code. It’s never that simple in practice when you have to make changes to existing code without breaking or rewriting everything.
Sometimes the client wants a new feature that cannot easily implement and has to do a lot of different DB lookups that you can not do in a single query. Sometimes your controller loops over 10000 DB records, and you call a function 3 levels down that suddenly must spawn a new DB query each time it’s called, but you cannot change the parent DB query.

Why do you need an app for that that can be blocked from both app stores? Did people forget about self hosted websites?
- Comment on Ultra-rare unreleased Pentium 4 with 4.0 GHz clock speed discovered — CPU-Z confirms it is an Intel Pentium Extreme Edition 980 2 weeks ago:
Reminds me of school we got the new pentiums 2 with 300mhz back in the day, in an very compact case with very small fans, with our computer room under the roof, windows facing towards midday sun. In summer at around 2pm one after the other PC went into thermal shutdown, with maybe 5 of 20 PCs still running by rpm. Opening windows did not help.

Ok, but didn’t they buy Myspace when it was already getting less popular and a lot of people had switched to Facebook?
- Comment on GTA V was released on this day, 12 years ago 5 weeks ago:
Online ist dead. 5 mins in and I’m getting headshots from a guy across the map with a K:D of 3000:1. Everything online costs real money or endless grind. Waiting for 15 mins in a lobby, only that the host logs out 2 mins into the mission.
- Comment on Trump's video on the shooting of Kirk appears to be AI 1 month ago:
Bold to assume that governments are capable of long term plans.
- Comment on What would have to happen to make everybody realize we weren't exaggerating when we said Trump would be like Hitler? 1 month ago:
There would be tours through the facilities, merch shops and a guy in a costume entertaining the visitors.
- Comment on Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10 2 months ago:
Dude I just listed some of the reasons WHY people want to keep on win10, and try to avoid being forced onto 11 - hence the lawsuit.
- Comment on Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10 2 months ago:
Win 11 is a downgrade with forced ms accounts, more ads, more distractions (tabloid “news”, weather, more ads, Microsoft own product ads) added to task bar, edge and notifications. On an OS I already paid money for!
- Comment on Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery 2 months ago:
This is an UI issue. You could just show them a landing Page and ask them if they want this new feature, and then it installs the extension or not.
- Comment on AOL will end dial-up internet service in September, 34 years after it's debut — AOL Shield Browser and AOL Dialer software will be shuttered on the same day 2 months ago:
Even simple pages are now at least 1-2MB big. News pages without an ad blocker and Autoplay videos can easily try to download 10 or more MB per page load. On 56kbits dial up, 10MB will take about 25 mins in the best case.

- Comment on Ancient food are absurdly complicated. 3 months ago:
People needed beer because the water was not always safe to drink. The alcohol in beer kills parasites and bacteria that might make you sick. Even kids drank light beer in medieval times for this reason.
- Comment on ‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing 3 months ago:
If they would use lidar you would get speed and distance from surrounding objects, which seems like valuable data for a moving object. With cameras you get a 2d picture that can only guestimate distance with a multiple cameras and software.

- Comment on 'I've been turned into an AI train announcer - and no one told me' 3 months ago:
Bro, do you really want to ruin tech bros because they would suddenly have to PAY for the data they use? Mark and Jeff would have to sell some of their yachts and Private jets to afford paying fair prices for AI data!
