Did we learn nothing from Snowden? I promise you the government has had a dossier on every American for decades.

I don’t know if you saw the news last month but Discord just replaced a founder with a former Activision-Blizzard exec as CEO.

I swear they are soulless NPCs put on this earth by demons to torture us.

It feels like literally the entire open source and games communities are on discord. Will they move too? I care about that even more than my DMs.

Well the nerve damage was unrelated if it helps lol.

I watched a few levels of it. This game has already been made. It’s called Painkiller and I beat it 20 years ago.

5, 6, 9. Come on now.

Used to love stomach-sleeping. Then got severe nerve damage in my shoulder and neck. Now H all day every day
- Comment on Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this year 5 days ago:
It’s been known for quite a while now. Even reddit gets annoyed with the guy.

I see this misconception all over the place and I can only assume it stems from not understanding the electoral college.
You underestimate how many people live in swing states.
Every non-voter who lives in California voted for Kamala. All of the states EC votes went to her.
- Comment on The USA spends $15k/student annually which is 30% higher than the global median. Why do U.S. schools have "fundraisers" where kids are incentivized to sell stuff to people? 1 week ago:
I guess slavery is more profitable than teaching kids.

- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
No but there are two things we should be doing; even non-teachers. Be a role model for even a single kid. Gain their respect so they want to learn your wisdom. An afternoon of doing anything with a kid who respects you can do more than months of school. Teach them how to be upstanding and how to think.
The other part is teachers need to organize a new system in which teachers are in charge of teaching. It’ll never happen unless you start. Sitting around and bitching about the education system for going on decades now is just pathetic.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
This is my point exactly. They don’t desire that. Nor should they. And so they shouldn’t do that.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
We cannot keep with this horrible system that does nothing but torture kids and teachers alike. It’s not working. It’s clear it’s not working. Change will never come from the top, because like you said, they will never voluntarily change it. So it must come from the bottom.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
Yes, they might have been good teachers if they hadn’t decided to support a mediocre institution that prevents teaching.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
The article is specifically about the USA. That’s what I’m talking about too.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
My point exactly. You won’t find good teachers in public education.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
Oh no, maybe teachers will have to put effort into their students beyond assigning homework that an AI can do.
- Comment on Microsoft is putting AI actions into the Windows File Explorer 1 week ago:
Thanks to that stupid AI (or more pathetically, something more basic?) notepad takes forever to load now. One of the main advantages it used to have: gone.
- Comment on YSK that in 16 States in the USA has banned Ranked-Choice voting, including 5 that has just banned it in 2025, and 6 of those bans happened in 2024. 1 week ago:
RCV isn’t monotonic, meaning that in the right circumstances you can harm your candidate by voting for him. Doesn’t matter how rare it is; what a ridiculous quality for a voting system to have.
- Comment on YSK that in 16 States in the USA has banned Ranked-Choice voting, including 5 that has just banned it in 2025, and 6 of those bans happened in 2024. 1 week ago:
Meh. There are better voting systems such as range voting and STAR.
- Comment on The Windows Subsystem for Linux is now open source. 1 week ago:
Normally I would say yes, but WSL is so incredibly necessary for a developer that it might be legit.
- Comment on Who needs it? 1 week ago:
Got you beat. I’ve never used any social media except for reddit (if that counts). I also have never used a smart phone.
- Comment on Industrial Light & Magic's Chief Creative Promotes AI Slop During His TED Talk 1 week ago:
Completely agreed. AI haters pride themselves on being creative, but they can’t form an original thought on the topic.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Nope. It’s just that would be the first thing I changed if I were making a reddit clone.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Also because it allows anyone to easily stalk all your comments for some reason. Creepy.
- Comment on AI Could Be the Most Effective Tool for Dismantling Democracy Ever Invented 2 weeks ago:
God I miss when em dashes were a sign of literacy. Now I despise them.
- Comment on Avoiding AI is hard – but our freedom to opt out must be protected 2 weeks ago:
Agreed. The only thing that has really changed is how much hardware we can throw at it. ML has existed more or less since the 60s.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
It’s embarrassing how often the first paragraph of the article contradicts the title of the post. Then you look at the comments and 99% of them are blathering as if the title is true.
