Sometimes I like to find top headlines from other countries.
Like damn, your country’s biggest news today is that you’re replacing outdated lights with eco-friendly alternatives?
Must be nice.

I used to think this way until all this AI garbage happened. My tiny tech blog suddenly got 100x the traffic after the AI boom, all from bots and scrapers. I started with basic solutions but after a few weeks, gave up and used cloudflare because it’s free and I’m sick of playing wackamole.
It’s a mess out there.

Applebee’s at 2AM which leaves a physical trail? Noob. I strap meshtastic nodes on wild dogs, using them as a Internet relay at 1-2kb a second, to look at manga leaks.

- Comment on They Wylin' 1 week ago:
Donny boy has GI issues, the diaper wear. GI issues can come from a lot of things, one major thing being stimulant abuse, like cocaine and meth. The 80s-90s was well known for their cocaine abuse, especially in the business setting.
So I guess what I’m saying is… Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

- Comment on Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin 1 week ago:
As long as windows is installed by default on hardware, it’s hard to move the needle. A huge majority don’t want the headache of switching.
But, that pie is slowly being chipped away as options are available.

- Comment on Where do I even start? 1 week ago:
Ooof, yeah reading their comments, I agree.
OP, if you’re reading this, start even smaller. Not everything has to be right in your house.
I been deploying web apps since 2010, and I jumped right into self hosting during the pandemic and it was a massive headache or challenges I wasn’t prepared to face or maintain.
I gave up (for now) and just used open-source apps and AWS, because I needed availability. And every few months, I do a bit more to one day move everything to pure self hosting.
- Comment on Game marketing company takes down blog post bragging about how good it is at astroturfing Reddit after Reddit finds the post 1 week ago:
You aren’t kidding. I played Kingdom Come Deliverance last year, when I learned about the second one. Was like wow.
Then read how they originally were courting the anti-woke crowd. Who later turned on them because the sequel has “woke” material.
Its great to not be a part of those GAMERS.

Assume all of the big ones.
Theres been a lot of positive GTA6 posts across a bunch of the internet, like how they’re “releasing it when theyre ready”.
Which is funny because a few days ago, they fired 30+ people who tried to unionize.
- Comment on For those of you who enjoy open-world games, how big of a world is too big? 2 weeks ago:
Elden Ring DLC for me.
At least the main game, the world was kind of flat.
The land of Shadow’s map was kind of difficult to read. There was too many layers. Some things were underground. Some were above ground.
If the world wasn’t connected but broken by portals or something, it would have been fine. But condensed like that made it feel too big and I overwhelming.

This is it.
GTA 5 was boring when it came to exploring, much of it was pretty empty unless there was a mission. Elder Scrolls Arena was just random generated repeated stuff - miles of it. Assassin’s Creed Odyssey was a lot of copy and paste.

All the fun of a extraction shooter, only single player.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Yep. Every company I’ve worked at had a marketing team with a social media team.
And social media isn’t just fucking around on Twitter posting food pics. It also making a dozen fake accounts to share how your company is way better than this other company. Or write bad reviews about your competitors. Or shit on people who like a particular product while boosting yours.
Oh is that against the law? Only if it’s enforced. Which impossible.
- Comment on Man Alarmed to Discover His Smart Vacuum Was Broadcasting a Secret Map of His House 3 weeks ago:
I bought a $300 fake Roomba thing. It was on clearance.
And i fought against it for years. But ended it up coming in clutch for a lot of reasons.
It did not have an app, just a IR controller. Its pretty dumb. It bumps into everything. It gets stuck under things. I sometimes have to create a maze so it cleans a specific spot.
Its been a habit of mines to avoid anything with an app that requires internet access. But the product lines are shrinking, and I know at some point, if I want a Roomba, I’ll need to invite always-on AI or whatever.
