  I miss hover

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tough, Tiny, and Totally Repairable: Inside the Framework 12⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks like fw12 is Intel and fw16 is AMD.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honda successfully launched and landed its own reusable rocket⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a feature, not a bug.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m actually looking to start a YouTube channel, but I don’t know if I should even bother since YouTube seems to be going out of its way to try to kill itself

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

  That’s not the sole purpose of it. The way it does it was what was important. And that method is flawed.

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

  An example: youtu.be/XDsLDhKG8Cs

  It doesn’t do the one thing it’s meant to do.

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

  Why use Tor? It’s been compromised for years now. Just use I2P. You can torrent with that too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palantir Is Going on Defense⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just convince Elon they are his competition and watch this work itself out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Massaging the neck and face may help flush waste out of the brain⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So my brain is full of shit?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Arc Browser Is Dead⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I hated arc but I really really wanted to like it. It was just too awkward to use

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's going on with Borderlands 2? Steam is giving it for free, but the game has 23% positive recent reviews.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is true. Even projects with good reputations get caught up in shit like the XZ back door in Linux.

  If you haven’t read up on that fiasco, you really should look into it. It got way too far before being caught all because people suck and ruin things for others.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's going on with Borderlands 2? Steam is giving it for free, but the game has 23% positive recent reviews.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There is nuance here. Not every crack is malicious but you have to assume they all are because some of them are. Trusting a source is irrelevant. Many security products will falsely tag cracked software as dangerous just because it’s cracked, not because it found a specific bit of nasty code, and this feeds the idea that you can’t believe when people tell you cracked software is unsafe. But there are many truly bad cracks out there. When in doubt, don’t trust it.

  And you should always doubt free shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Most American headline⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not wanting to feed children doesn’t seem very pro-life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft announces new Windows changes in response to the EU's (DMA) Digital Markets Act for EEA users, including Edge not prompting users to set it as the default unless opened⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Companies absolutely HATE copilot. I remember they didn’t even like Siri enabled on the Mac’s where I used to work. No way in hell copilot is getting a pass.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The IRS Tax Filing Software TurboTax Is Trying to Kill Just Got Open Sourced⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you comparing online game servers to the American tax system? Because I really want a ban.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would just look for an instance that doesn’t prioritize propaganda buzzwords like “freedom”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Germany's Federal Cartel Office warns Amazon that its marketplace retailer price controls likely violate national and EU laws, in its preliminary assessment⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Amazon doesn’t care.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X launches E2E encrypted Chat⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  See the “lol” everyone? It means he’s trying make my assertion sound ridiculous because he didn’t have a way to counter it and doesn’t want believe it. People do this on the internet so they can pretend they are winning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X launches E2E encrypted Chat⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not. They have been caught steering traffic over and over again. If you say anything Elon dislikes and it starts getting attention, their algorithm will hide your posts once Elon tells it to. Elon LOVES censorship so long as he’s in control of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X launches E2E encrypted Chat⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dude, even X’s AI, Grok, distrusts the CEO.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X launches E2E encrypted Chat⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Were you being serious with that or sarcastic?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta plans to use AI to automate up to 90% of its privacy and integrity risk assessments, including in sensitive areas like violent content⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t even take responsibility for things now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Companies are using Ribbon AI, an AI interviewer to screen candidates.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Companies need a way to pick any hire out of a large set of applicants. They don’t care if it’s a good hire. They don’t even care if the hire will burn down the building. This same thing could be accomplished with a small script that points to a random applicant and evaluates if that one lied on their resume. That’s it.

  But if you call it “AI”, dumbfuck business majors will buy your magic beans.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New fuel cell could enable electric aviation⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So that might not be a big deal. Most of the energy in gasoline is released as heat and not useable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NYPD robocops: Hulking, 400-lb robots will start patrolling New York City⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Michael Reeves had the right idea turning these into beer pissbots.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NYPD robocops: Hulking, 400-lb robots will start patrolling New York City⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I foresee a new market popping up of parts stolen off of kidnapped and parted out robots form the NYPD.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump Taps Palantir to Compile Data on Americans⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. Some of my friends are already planning to die, buying guns and hoping to take down an agent with them. I won’t buy a gun because I’m afraid I’ll actually use it, possibly on myself.

  These are incredibly dark times.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gemini will now automatically summarize your long emails unless you opt out⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would you admit that where others can potentially use that information to attack your device? Some cards you have to play close to the chest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gemini will now automatically summarize your long emails unless you opt out⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Canada isn’t going to be a safe bet in the long run. They have a reprieve for now but they always end up doing whatever America does just a few years later.
