- Comment on Totally normal book on audible 1 week ago:
Its not one audiobook but ive been listening to james aclers deathlands for a couple years now. Theres around 130 audiobooks, each one is about 8-12 hours. I use audacity to combine 5 audio books at a time and it certainly feels like one long audiobook. I might be around 400 hours now and thats still only half way

I recently started my own AI factory , the passive income is great. All you need is a grease and soldering gun. Thanks Nvidia , I never have to work again.
- Comment on The Fediverse and Content Creation: Monetization 1 month ago:
Where do you think would be an affordable place to advertise the fediverse?
I think the fediverse should advertise it’s self in a simple slogan that can lead the normal user into a more in depth explanation of what, why and how. When I first discovered Lemmy, I didn’t know what the fediverse was, it felt really strange

- Comment on Lawmakers Want to Ban VPNs—And They Have No Idea What They're Doing 1 month ago:
Good luck with enforcing that, websites are likely to block access from Wisconsin. Isp’s in Wisconsin will just block vpns or not do anything at all. If the whole world banned vpns then we’d just all use the next work around.

- Comment on Google CEO: If an AI bubble pops, no one is getting out clean 2 months ago:
Quiet quitting is our best bet. If they don’t give you decent health care and a retirement plan then we’re just doing the minimum. Why would we work harder for less in return? Maybe we can just all start our own AI business. Every American can have their very own AI automated business with passive income.
- Comment on Unremovable Spyware on Samsung Devices Comes Pre-installed on Galaxy Series Devices 2 months ago:
I hate galaxy phones, they’re build quality is so shitty and the prices are higher than a google pixel. Now they come with Israeli spyware? What other phones have spyware that I should know about?
- Comment on Peter Thiel dumps entire Nvidia stake, slashes Tesla holdings amid bubble fears 2 months ago:
AI is causing water shortages, rising electric costs and chip shortages. AI is just a fancy search engine, that can be a useful tool. It was awesome for ai to read my blood test results but I don’t need it for most things, a waste of energy. Search engines should have an off button for ai, turn the lights off when we’re not using it.
- Comment on Elon Musk says Optimus will 'eliminate poverty' in speech after his $1 trillion pay package was approved 2 months ago:
Isn’t this the same guy who performed two sieg heils in front of a live audience on live TV. Then he was to much of a sissy to admit it.
- Comment on Windows 11 Finally Fixes "Update and Shut Down" Functionality After a Decade 2 months ago:
A couple years ago I had a windows update lead to an error message that says no device drivers found. Tried installing windows again, still says that shit. I downloaded all the available drivers. Strange how I had drivers and then suddenly not. Linux working good though.

To be fair calling that work is stretching it
- Comment on Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors 2 months ago:
Do be fair I didn’t read the article
- Comment on Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors 2 months ago:
AI just cuts pastes from the websites like Wikipedia. The problem is when it gets information that’s old or from a sketchy source. Hopefully people will still know how to check sources, should probably be taught in schools. Who’s the author, how olds the article, is it a reputable website, is there a bias. I know I’m missing some pieces
