- Comment on Wikipedia has banned AI-generated text, with two exceptions 19 hours ago:
Sounds like they emphasize that contributors are still responsible for the changes. Some people are way too trusting in the robots’ abilities.
- Comment on [deleted] 20 hours ago:
If you just want to compare different types, then sure, any harm caused is bad all the same. This one just doesn’t seem like a very widespread problem to me and I doubt most people complaining are that oppressed.
- Comment on How do wealthy people know if the people they meet are wealthy or not? 1 day ago:
Finland, and same. Skiing during winter is about as normal as hiking during summer.

- Comment on What does DLSS do, and what's up with DLSS 5? 2 days ago:
Don’t know much about that, but it doesn’t sound like it makes screeching in the comments any more helpful.
- Comment on What does DLSS do, and what's up with DLSS 5? 2 days ago:
It generally doesn’t help the case if the one comment making it is the screechiest in the thread.
- Comment on This is Android's new 'advanced flow' for sideloading apps without verification, includes one-day waiting period 3 days ago:
I don’t believe that this is for the better, nor that this is done in good faith to protect users. They already tried to make it mandatory to go through Google, which is a pretty clear hint of their actual goal.
Google pushes the safety narrative, but this also conveniently entrenches Google as the authority over alternatives and hurts not only FOSS, but also competing app stores from other companies like Amazon, Samsung, or whatever Chinese manufacturers.

It sure is a completely unnecessary burden designed as a deterrant.
- Comment on This is Android's new 'advanced flow' for sideloading apps without verification, includes one-day waiting period 4 days ago:
Because everything must get worse.

Obviously we need to find a middle ground between owning the things we purchase, and not owning them. Having access, but making it annoying is a very reasonable option.
- Comment on This is Android's new 'advanced flow' for sideloading apps without verification, includes one-day waiting period 4 days ago:
So, the idea is to make the process as annoying as possible.

- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
“Ancestry tests” are notoriously inaccurate. But doed it even matter? You don’t have to base your identity on what some data harvesting company tells you, even if the results were correct.

Solution to what? Electronics hobby?
- Comment on This Espressif ESP32-Powered 4G "Smartphone," Programmed in the Arduino IDE, Packs The Essentials 2 weeks ago:
Kind of, it’s a pretty shit phone, and the creator is not pretending otherwise. Why are you so offended and why should they do whatever you want them to do instead?
- Comment on This Espressif ESP32-Powered 4G "Smartphone," Programmed in the Arduino IDE, Packs The Essentials 2 weeks ago:
Why does the end product of an electronics learning project need to be useful? Or any hobby project? Your criticism was that their hobbies should yield something useful, but where’s the “justification” for that? What’s wrong with just having fun?
Quarter wits: “How dare you have fun”
