  Why would she whisper

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Apple zealots trust apple. The rest of us don’t give a rat’s ass what Apple does.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WHAT IF WHAT IF⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Some people will refuse other treatments regardless, so you’re not changing the outcome.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bank Workers, Rejoice!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m European so I’m out of the loop. Do you actually have 17% interest rates? I’m getting 2% over here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve Announces New Steam Machine, Steam Controller & Steam Frame⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I want the Steam controller to succeed but why do they make it look like it’s from the 1980s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palantir CEO Says a Surveillance State Is Preferable to China Winning the AI Race⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Palantir CEO will be among the first to be lined up against the wall when the revolution comes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thank me later...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I made a mistake. The proper calculation for an increase by 80%, then 300%, then 1400% should be

  x*(1+0.80)(1+3.00)(1+14.00) =

  x1.84*15 = 108 = 10800%

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thank me later...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The trick is to time the cocaine and crystal meth ingestion so that they peak at the same time that you orgasm, leading to an 80% * 300% * 1400% = 7460% dopamine increase.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨*Jarvis, arm the valediction*⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s different; it implies one of:

  • The amount of respect that is due amounts to zero.
  • Some amount of respect/disrespect is due, but you are not offering that amount of respect.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨*Jarvis, arm the valediction*⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  “With all due respect” and “with all due disrespect” both contain the exact same amount of respect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Norway’s mega wealth fund to reject Elon Musk’s $1 trillion Tesla pay package⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  threats from Musk to step down if the deal is rejected

  A threat is a good start, but is it a promise?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Data stored in Canada can be subject to foreign courts, government paper warns⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This isn’t new. European companies and governments have been avoiding US cloud providers ever since the CLOUD Act was introduced seven years ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Typically the competitive multiplayer ones fail because of kernel-level anticheat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hmm breakfast⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They clearly have not been to a Swedish breakfast buffet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI says over a million people talk to ChatGPT about suicide weekly⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This cynicism towards LLMs here truly boggles my mind. So many people seem to build their entire identity around feeling superior about themselves due to all the products and services they don’t use.

  I think they’re just scared as hell of the possible negative effects and react instinctively. But the cat is out of the bag and downvoting / hating on every post on Lemmy that mention positive sides is not going to help them steer the world into whatever alternative destiny that they’re hoping for.

  The thing that puzzles me is that this is typically the hallmark of older more conservative generations, and I imagine that Lemmy has a relatively young demographic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI says over a million people talk to ChatGPT about suicide weekly⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The anti-AI hivemind here will hate me for saying it but I’m willing to bet $100 that this saves a significant number of lives. It’s also indicative of how insufficient traditional mental health institutions are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm doing it because it's the right thing to do! ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you autistic?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Manic Stew⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Manic Stew⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Spiraling Carbonara

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨do it cowards⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought I was in the target audience until I found it requires a paid subscription to tell my friends I just pooped.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I will be taking no followup questions. Thank you for your time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not that simple

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You might be proud but she is disgusted⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So basically the goal is to successfully convince people to “eat my dick”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You might be proud but she is disgusted⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So enlist a professional photographer before sending dick pics. Gotcha.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Portal and Portal 2 are 80% off⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Success!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No excuses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, it has been my experience that kindness is in the eye of the beholder.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No excuses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t know what someone is going through, and everybody is the way they are because of a background that they didn’t choose.

  That said, sometimes being unkind is the most effective way of pushing people toward a better path.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨they all start out the same but in a month they figure it out⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Indeed. This is their job and they’re using company resources to pay someone else to do it for them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Deep⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  PREGANTE

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Necessary post procedure care for vasectomy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  IIRC was prescribed like 30 ejaculations over the course of two months. I could be wrong about the exact number but I remember thinking I had to actually put an effort and some consistency in it if I was going to hit the target.
