- Comment on Burger King will use AI to check if employees say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ 1 week ago:
Burger King, you’re food ain’t good enough, that’s why you’re losing money. It’s not hte employees not being “friendly” enough cause, frankly, ain’t no one giving a shit at a fast food job ANYWHERE. Improve your quality, pay your people and MAYBE you’re employees and customers would be happy.
But no, I’m wrong and AI is the answer. AI will fix everything.
- Comment on MSI's $80 AMD motherboards with DDR4 support swoop in to rescue gamers amid the global RAM crisis 1 week ago:
I get where you’re coming from but
But if they’re worth enough due to price increases, it’ll increase the number of companies who are willing to recoup some of the value of the DIMMs.
meaning that prices of DDR4 HAVE TO GO UP in the first place for companies to even want to try to sell their old stock. So we’re still going to be suffering from increased prices as a result of AI.
So good that now there might be a market for people to NOT throw away their sticks, but it’s still going to get rough for people trying to make a new machine in 2026 and beyond.
- Comment on MSI's $80 AMD motherboards with DDR4 support swoop in to rescue gamers amid the global RAM crisis 1 week ago:
The problem with this is that companies were winding DOWN DDR4 production before AI bought all the DDR5 RAM. So if no one can get DDR5, attention will shift to the already dwindling supply of DDR4 aaaaand… well, prices are already up and it’s not going to get better.
- Comment on [PDF] Nicki Minaj’s social media propped up by thousands of bots— Analysis reveals the rap sensation’s advocacy for conservative causes has been amplified by an army of bots and coordinated activity 1 week ago:
Yeah… a lot of people with large follower counts and are a bit TOO “online” probably have bot farms crank up their numbers. And the platforms definitely know who is doing shit like this and basically gave up on trying to majorly resolve it since it also juiced their own metrics for investors. Still, nice to see conformation that, once again, Elon is full of shit.

It could be this too!

What about the device you’re connecting these two to? What are the interfaces on that device?

Not enough info here. Is it a SATA drive connected to your mobo? What type of USB are you using? Are you transferring files?
If you are transferring files from a SATA drive, you’re going to be limited by the sata interface. If you are using an older USB standard, you are going to be limited by the speeds of that USB interface. Also depends on what specs your system is using.
If everything is “fast enough” (using an m.2 ssd and fast enough USB connector), it could be that your USB cable isn’t able to do 3.0 type speeds and is only meant for power or older devices.
Basically, without more info, there could be a lot of things at play here that’s not going to be resolved with a software solution. ALSO, you can’t really solve hardware problems with software anyways.

Yeah, ain’t it great that judges can be easily swayed by some bullshit? Good country, ethics really well here.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
What? Come on! It made the judge “feel” something! Not like someone’s died or something! /s
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
This reminds me of that one judge that let prosecution use an AI approximation of a dead man against someone that killed the dead man to speak in the dead man’s voice and I just wanted to throw the justice system INTO THE OCEAN cause wtf.

- Comment on Ring cancels its partnership with Flock Safety after surveillance backlash 3 weeks ago:
The people in charge of these companies are absolutely at fault for being greedy and evil but these companies have ALWAYS been evil and greedy at their inception. Which is why I bring up Bezos. He was cut throat in the way he started and managed his company, same with Gates, same with xyz. You don’t amass the amount of influence that Amazon and Microsoft achieved without a lot of backdoor deals and cutthroat tactics. You cannot divorce what these companies are from where they started and HOW they got to this point. History is important to look back on.
I’m not absolving anyone of anything, they all fucking suck. AND ALSO if you think that Jeff Bezos doesn’t have a hand in his own company anymore, come on now! Once again, he’s a billionaire! We can’t keep being this naive about what these assholes are saying in private conversations outside of the eyes of the public. Bezos is in the Epstein files for crying out loud!
- Comment on Ring cancels its partnership with Flock Safety after surveillance backlash 3 weeks ago:
I’m well aware he’s not CEO but… come on. He set up the company, the dynamics, etc. Amazon is still all about doing everything they can to break up unions, he still gets most of his wealth from Amazon, Amazon will still give up Ring camera data to police departments, etc etc. COME ON.
- Comment on Ring cancels its partnership with Flock Safety after surveillance backlash 3 weeks ago:
A new company will pop up to replace Flock. Amazon will gladly work with them next, assuming Flock doesn’t go under. Do not be fooled, Jeff Bozo is an evil man
- Comment on Google might think your Website is down 3 weeks ago:
The problem here is that no one that makes these LLM/AI/whatever are doing ENOUGH DUE DILIGENCE to make sure the data that they’re scrapping is good and accurate to improve the AI’s output. This has been an issue since the beginning and with how much data they’re taking, there’s no good way to get it to 100% accurate. And there was a study put out last year that said it doesn’t take much bad info to poison the AI output. And this is the stuff that these big tech companies are trying to force us all to use in our day-to-day. ALSO YEAH it is Google’s fault because it’s their dog. Their dog is taking the data without understanding WHAT the data they’re taking is, they trained the dog, they have the responsibility for what the dog does out on the internet. It the dog is leading people off a cliff, that’s on Google.
- Comment on Google might think your Website is down 3 weeks ago:
This is problematic because anything on your web pages might now influence unrelated answers. You could have outdated information on some forgotten page, or contradictory details across different sections. Google’s AI might grab any of this and present it as the answer. If you allow user-generated content anywhere on your site (like forum posts or comments), someone could post fake support contact info, and Google might surface that to users searching for how to contact your company. Now scammers have a direct route to your customers.
OH FUUUUUUN

- Comment on Discord walks back age verification fears for most users 3 weeks ago:
So I kinda walked away from this to think about what’s being said a bit and I just kinda have to disagree? Like, being clear and concise and accurate in defining something is hella important… to the people that care about those things. The thing we see though isn’t lacking definitions, especially in a legal sense, but people not pushing back enough whenever bad actors start bringing up terrible arguments. There are people out there that you can bring up the best, most logical points in the world and they will still twist and twist and twist until your original point is lost. We can make the most robust, perfect definitions and some people will STILL either find ways around it or completely ignore what was rationally established. The definition doesn’t matter, the problem is fascists want to monitor the world and make whoever they want disappear and people kinda just let it happen.
And to be clear, I’m trying to say you’re completely wrong. Defining things is important to establish a shared common framework of understanding and policy making and regulations are SO SO SO IMPORTANT cause they save lives in more than just one way, but problem isn’t clear cut to be solved with “we need to define things better.” We have a culture issue. Culture issues need more than one approach to resolve.

People need to realize that this isn’t JUST a Discord issue. This is a policy issue AS WELL. Fucking pay attention to the politics around you. And this isn’t just a United States issue as well.
- Comment on Disney+ loses Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and 3D amid patent dispute 4 weeks ago:
HEY! What’s up with this website’s data collection/cookie prompt? Feels like they made it hella confusing on purpose. If I’m “opted out” does that mean out of wanting to not have my data collected or does that mean a reconfirmation that I don’t want my data collected?
- Comment on DuckDuckGo poll says 90% responders don't want AI 5 weeks ago:
NOW the question is, will they listen? Cause we’ve seen so many times where a company says they’re taking feedback and then do the thing that their audience didn’t want them to do in the first place anyways. Now, of course, they could have more data and metrics that says people don’t care or do want the BS, but I doubt all the companies that DID go hard into AI actually looked at legit numbers, since all the big heads are now saying “why aren’t you people using this stuff?”
