• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sam Altman admits OpenAI ‘totally screwed up’ its GPT-5 launch and says the company will spend trillions of dollars on data centers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, they deserve a free therapist or at least access to affordable mental health programs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This CEO laid off nearly 80% of his staff because they refused to adopt AI fast enough. 2 years later, he says he’d do it again⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No, I disagree. The CEO is by far the most replaceable person when it comes to AI if the directive is to simply make more money for shareholders based on market research. I would argue that the CEO is being a parasite here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Schools are using AI to spy on students and some are getting arrested for misinterpreted jokes and private conversations⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  WTF America?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"ok, imagine a gun."⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This phrase has confused me so much even I heard it in one of Taylor Swift’s songs.

  Then my Texan cousins explained it to me on a visit one day. I was still confused. Now I’ve found out it’s a stage coach thing. Interesting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meet the AI vegans: They are choosing to abstain from using artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons. Maybe they have a point⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  AI vegan is not a thing and shall never be.

  The correct term is Technophile. Anyone obsessed with tech would never hand it off to a third party to do when they can go through the joy of learning themselves.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI chatbots are becoming popular alternatives to therapy. But they may worsen mental health crises, experts warn⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is what happens when mental healthcare is not accessible to people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Collective Shout Purge Sees Horror Games In Crosshairs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like even those games will be banned if we don’t stop them now. My thoughts are that games like ‘I am Jesus’ is the end goal here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"We approached payment processors because Steam did not respond" - Australian pressure group Collective Shout claims responsibility for Steam and Itch.io NSFW game removal⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you gone to their website to check out their successful campaigns? They’ve taken down a manufacturer on Temu who makes silicon heads used for piercing. Apparently the heads looked too much like children.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too bad we can't have good public transportation⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Pretty much part of the plot from Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian anti-porn group claims responsibility for Steam's new censorship rules in victory against 'porn sick brain rotted pedo gamer fetishists', and things only get weirder from there⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Which ones? Spill the beans.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian anti-porn group claims responsibility for Steam's new censorship rules in victory against 'porn sick brain rotted pedo gamer fetishists', and things only get weirder from there⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe they’re a religious group under the guise of feminism and child protection. If you look at their affiliate page, they list quite a few religious groups.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rule34 blocked the UK entirely rather than comply due to the new law.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not the government per se, but the powerful lobby groups that want a new world order. Usually linked to religion. Looking at you, Collective Shout.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Local slang word that derives from “their brains are fried/not working” which also implies stupidity and fanatical adherence to things like religion, anti abortion, anti vax, and the like.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Goddamn cookers the lot of them. Perhaps I’ll make an abortion game on Itch in protest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Surprising no one, new research says AI Overviews cause massive drop in search clicks⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Will ‘AI’ give rise to Internet 2.0?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can thank Advance Australia for that. Huge think tank that likely bank rolls all this nonsense and more.

  Also, down with Collective Shout! As someone who suffered child abuse, I condemn these cookers crusading under the guise of child protection. FFS, they were patting themselves on the back for stopping sales of plastic heads on Temu.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They even got their own island⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  FYI - real vaginas don’t stretch like flesh lights.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delta moves toward eliminating set prices in favor of AI that determines how much you personally will pay for a ticket⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t quite understand if your statement is for or against consumer protections because I can’t fathom being against consumer protections. Could you please clarify?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delta moves toward eliminating set prices in favor of AI that determines how much you personally will pay for a ticket⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Consumer protections when?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linux Reaches 5% Desktop Market Share In USA⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m just waiting for double digits so that the FiveM devs can’t ignore Linux gamers anymore and actually allow for GTAV online playability. I mean, you can run a server on Linux but can’t play? Dumb.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wonder if the spice girls still get along or if that "friendship never ends" thing was just a lie.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I always interpreted that lyric as ‘get along with my friends’ but they dropped a word to make it sound better lyrically.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian doctors call for clampdown on social media influencers allegedly glamorising poker machines⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I vote that all this screen time instead be filled with Life Be In It ads.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Summer Sale 2025 has begun!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fear & Hunger 1 & 2 for me among others. Stellar Blade not on sale though… I get it but… It’s so expensive…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes, this is what people did back then⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Go to all the live gigs, then invest. Probably steal PayPal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oh to go back...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  HACK THE PLANET!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nier creator Yoko Taro reveals the sad reality of modern AAA game development, “there’s less weird people making games”⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s why you need public funding to support and nourish the industry. We’ve got that in our state where we can get grants to start up studios. This allowed for studios such as Massive Monster to be created.

  VC funding isn’t great because they can pull out if the project or investment doesn’t suit them. See League of Geeks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The end of Windows 10 is approaching, so it's time to consider Linux and LibreOffice⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but my W10 shoved a giant full screen ad telling me to get rid of my PC and get a new one with W11 twice. Support might be ending but if it constantly nags you to upgrade, that’s just BS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How often do you take him for a walk?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My guess is that the American working system has drained so much from their working population that leashes are required because they have no energy left to pay full attention to their children.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨VPN Registrations Increase by 1,000%, less than Hour After PornHub Blocked France From Accessing its Website.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Australia banned hentai

  Did we? My scientific search the other night proves that false, and I’m not on VPN.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Los Angeles Police Department shot an Australian reporter with a rubber bullet while she was live on TV. Zero provocation.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think that’s what they meant. Ok -> acknowledgement that it’s shit that the journalist also got shot.
