- Comment on CEO of Palantir Says AI Means You’ll Have to Work With Your Hands Like a Peasant 1 day ago:
Those peasant surgeons.
- Comment on The world is trying to log off U.S. tech 2 days ago:
Imagine that. Being indifferent to your customer base and forcing them into areas they don’t want to travel are two main behaviours that will destroy a business and bring it to ruin. Monopolies will always eventually have alternatives when their customers find out that the rain is just piss from above.

Yes. They are very unique. In exactly the same way everyone else is.
- Comment on Some people think because human history exists on a macro level they play some part in shaping it because they made a meme once. 4 days ago:
Some humans are right about thinking that, if you believe in the butterfly effect.
- Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions. 4 days ago:
In a capitalist world unions will always exist because there will never be any laws to protect the producer of capital (the worker). Imagine how much union dues could go back into the worker’s pocket if they were protected by their government?
- Comment on Believing you will retire before you die now requires the same faith as believing in heaven 6 days ago:
I thought it was just faith. So, is the question “What are the odds that you’ll retire, and what other ratio does it compare to?”. /s
- Comment on Believing you will retire before you die now requires the same faith as believing in heaven 6 days ago:
Same faith required as to whether the sun will come up tomorrow or not. You can’t depend on anything. You need a busload of faith to get by. RIP Lou Reed.
- Comment on Trump will decertify Canadian planes 1 week ago:
Let him. If a lot of businesses fail due to this then that is the cost of freedom. Brother, can you spare an honourable potus?
- Comment on The danger of not thinking it out before you act 1 week ago:
Nowadays everyone has a phone to kill time with while the paint dries. Pre-tech this used to be a very bad thing to do. No-one should be left alone with their thoughts for too long. /s
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Looking back, these will be the times that trump destroyed america and microsoft destroyed itself. Maybe america destroyed itself and trump was nothing more than the guy who squeezed the pimple.

- Comment on Tesla profit tanked 46% in 2025 | TechCrunch 1 week ago:
As well it should have. You can’t sell many vehicles to people who still remember what nazi’s were. Yet who really cares. In the aftermath of the nazi shit and dropped sales his board cronies paid him a trillion dollar bonus! CEO bonuses work both ways I guess, in this corrupt, fuck you, world.
- Comment on Facial recognition to be rolled out nationwide in major police reforms 1 week ago:
So you disagree that surveillance can be a two-way street? Seems extreme. If we only had some sort of trustworthy group, who we elect, managing affairs on our behalf. /s
- Comment on Buttcoin 1 week ago:
Does anyone still invest anymore? I thought the stock market was a mere shadow of it’s former self, what with all the manipulation and insider knowledge diddling going on (for far too long). With cost-accounting being ignored all value is applied by using “gut feeling” or 'whatever the rube will pay" gambits.

2,000 pounds of new figs…something something joke setup…Fig New Ton!
- Comment on Facial recognition to be rolled out nationwide in major police reforms 1 week ago:
We need a string of national web cams covering all areas of the country where each citizen has access to at anytime of the day or night. Wouldn’t be hard. Now the authorities and the citizenry can both keep their eye on each other.

Someone read “Wind Through the Keyhole” and thinks a Starkblast is real.
- Comment on Google won’t stop replacing our news headlines with terrible AI | It now says AI headlines are a ‘feature,’ not an experiment. 1 week ago:
Google has been proven to be information manipulators. Who would go there for the truth? Websites with independent journalists and citations will shut all of this down (but please, not another podcast).
- Comment on A Guide to the Circular Deals Underpinning the AI Boom | A web of interlinked investments raises the risk of cascading losses if AI falls short of its potential. 2 weeks ago:
What potential? I’ve never once read a good explanation for it even though I see “AI” all over the place all of the time.
- Comment on Considering their move away from VR and to AI, Meta should rename to Slop 2 weeks ago:
The best they can do is “No Legs Book”.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Everything is about surveillance nowadays. Doesn’t anyone worry about being vexed anymore? Are there nanobots in my Snickers bar checking out my duodenum?
