Wasn’t the ATV invented because it covered most off-road situations to get around quicker?

Dex was kind of nifty if you had a monitor laying around. I’m guessing this is the non-Samsung version feature.

Wow. Did not know this existed. Thanks!
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 1 day ago:
Atari’s ET. Game was bugged. Every 80’s kid that bought this was disappointed. It is the worst video game in history and all unsold copies were buried in a landfill only to be rediscovered decades later.

The High Score is a great documentary that actually has the guy that developed it. I think he was high when he did which explains a lot.
- Comment on What is this for? (Wrong answers only) 4 days ago:
It’s a place to sit backwards and read your comic books using the little table on the back.
- Comment on Researchers secretly experimented on Reddit users with AI-generated comments 4 days ago:
This is the final straw. I deleted my Reddit account.
From the article: Chief Legal Officer Ben Lee responded to the controversy on Monday, writing that the researchers’ actions were “deeply wrong on both a moral and legal level” and a violation of Reddit’s site-wide rules.
I don’t believe for one moment Reddit admins didn’t know this was going on especially since it involved mining user data to feed AI. Since when does Reddit have a moral compass? Their compass always points north to maximum shareholder value which right now is looking like anything to do with AI.

It gets 13 gallons per mile.
- Comment on People in the office who don't take used K-Cups out of the machine are the new equivalent "you kill it, you fill it" 1 week ago:
Because depending the culture of your employees, the pot never gets emptied, grows mold, and filters get reused for that unique taste. No matter how many beatings are given to employees, they will continue these bad habits even when you terminate half your staff for this. In fact, some pride themselves of drinking out of a pot that has a disgusting mountain of old grinds at the bottom of it.
Instead of spending the time to constantly deal with this, the incontinence is now they didn’t throw the cup away or it’s empty. Production is up again and moral is improved by 2%.
- Comment on Republican space officials criticize “mindless” NASA science cuts 1 week ago:
“Oh noooo we cut NASA in half. Who will fill that void?? SpaceX will save us”. That’s every republican and several democrats in congress counting their sweet DOGE money “SuperPAC” kickbacks paid for by you.
- Comment on Elon Musk: your new Tesla will drive from the factory floor, to your house 'this year' 1 week ago:
… from the Tesla factory floor, through the ditches, crash through several loony tunes landscapes, over your neighbors’ dogs, cats, pet turtles, children, and finally park inside of your house after crashing through your living room wall to add an additional car port you didn’t know you needed! Here at Tesla, we insist cameras are superior in every way possible to LIDAR. Quality is significantly improved on object detection when paired with 3M MAXIMUM EXTREME Quality Blue Tape+ for a premium cost. Every new purchase comes with a free, permanently center dash mounted Hitl -I mean- Elon bobble head performing the awkward “throwing much love” gesture. 3M Blue tape non transferable upon sale of the vehicle. Tesla retains the rights to not be held responsible for any damages resulting in your choice of using personalized automated delivery. Void where prohibited, which is nowhere. CALL NOW!

Why not get rid of the patent trolls, the monopolies shelving useful technologies through patent loopholes, the … Oh I see the tech billionaires again wanting to uproot a system because loopholes are just too much effort now.

Also Apple tried this in the past. Who knew making special little screws was way more expensive to make in the US. Kind of sucks when you outsource all of your manufacturing …

IT’S A MINERAL!
- Comment on DOGE Plans to Rebuild SSA Codebase in Months, Risking Benefits and System Collapse 5 weeks ago:
They’re not rebuilding anything. They’re just adding back doors everywhere. If anyone hasn’t learned yet, these are crackpot script kiddies at best. Even If somehow control is take away from them, they are now going to definitely have to redo the entire thing to make sure none of their shit code survives.
- Comment on NVIDIA rushes human-like robots to homes near you. 1 month ago:
Do we really want something that is completely incapable of making proper, sound decisions running around in your house? “Hello human, I see rocks are good for you. Eat this rock! Why are you resisting sustenance? Let me call an ambulance you seem to be ill and your teeth are falling out” That’s just an example of Gemini powered robot.

A broken clock is right two times a day I suppose.
- Comment on Digg is about to be rebooted. Thoughts? 1 month ago:
Digg lost its popularity for the same reason Reddit is. It started taking investment money and began to please only the share holders. Yeah it’s private owned again, but they will just repeat the cycle because the temptation is there.
I’ve only been using Lemmy for a few months, but it seems to me that taking any instance public will not be a feasible business model. i don’t recommend anyone go back to digg unless you just like watching enshitification happen. Should they reboot Ebaulmsworld while they’re at it? I know that last statement struck a nerve!
- Comment on FCC chair says we’re too dependent on GPS and wants to explore ‘alternatives’. 1 month ago:
You know what’s a great backup? The ability to read a map or use a compass. This is set up to get Starlink or another billionaire to own GPS.
- Comment on Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court Cases 1 month ago:
From the linked court document in the article: …courtlistener.com/…/gov.uscourts.insd.215482.99.…
“For the reasons set forth above, the Undersigned, in his discretion, hereby RECOMMENDS that Mr. Ramirez be personally SANCTIONED in the amount of $15,000 pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 for submitting to the Court and opposing counsel, on three separate occasions, briefs that contained citations to non-existent cases. In addition, the Undersigned REFERS the matter of Mr. Ramirez’s misconduct in this case to the Chief Judge pursuant to Local Rule of Disciplinary Enforcement 2(a) for consideration of any further discipline that may be appropriate”
Mr. Ramirez is the dumbass lawyer that didn’t check his dumbass AI. If you read above the paragraph I copied from, he gets laid into by the judge in writing to justify recommendation for sanctions and discipline. Good catch by the judge and the processes they have for this kind of thing.

- Comment on Looks legit, but can it actually be a real thing? 2 months ago:
"Hotdog … no hotdog … " That’s the first thing I thought when it said AI. I know it’s not real, but that just makes it funny.
- Comment on I would let a chip be installed in my brain if it would allow me to erase memories of the games I have played to play them again as the first time. 2 months ago:
I can see this going absolutely side ways when your mind tries to cope with where 1000+ hours of your life went. Also you’d probably get 1000+ hours of ads beamed into your brain to make up for that gap of time, unless you pay for the “Memory+” or “Memory Max” tier, with just slightly less ads. Would be cool to experience a game for the first time again, but I would just read a book or share gaming “war stories” with my imaginary buddies.
