- Comment on Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa among artists urging British Prime Minister Starmer to rethink his AI copyright plans 1 week ago:
That’s just not true, chatgpt & co are hugely popular, which is a big part of the issue.
- Comment on French culture 1 week ago:
Yeah, if you only do touristy stuff you’re gonna have a bad time. It’s like saying NYC sucks when you’ve only visited Time Square.
- Comment on Several phone brands rumored to be planning a major shift away from Android 2 weeks ago:
Why bother switching then?
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 2 weeks ago:
Plex sucks but jellyseer, the *arr stack and jellyfin are all open source and entirely free. Together they provide an experience almost as straightforward as any commercial streaming platform: find a media on jellyseerr and request it with a single click. A few minutes* later the media is available in Jellyfin, and you can watch it on your computer, smartphone, smart TV, …
*with Usenet and a good internet connection
- Comment on Report: Apple CEO “cares about nothing else” Than Building Breakout AR Glasses Before Meta 2 weeks ago:
I know, I meant that although I’m interested in the tech I’ve barely tried it.
- Comment on Report: Apple CEO “cares about nothing else” Than Building Breakout AR Glasses Before Meta 2 weeks ago:
Well I do want this, augmented/virtual reality is exactly the kind of shit I dreamt about as a kid during the 90’s, and having a huge screen available anywhere I go is pretty fucking cool.
But yeah, I used a VR headset exactly once for like 5 minutes, and there’s no way in hell I’d buy one from meta or apple. If Valve releases good XR/AR glasses I might consider it.
- Comment on I ditched my laptop for a pocketable mini PC and a pair of AR glasses — here’s what happened 5 weeks ago:
I can work at my desk using only my laptop. Do I want to, and is it my actual setup? No, and no. My laptop is plugged into my ultra wide screen, my mechanical keyboard and my mouse. That’s what he meant, and that’s what I found interesting.

Nah, you want bimbos.
- Comment on Crossbow killer Kyle Clifford was 'fuelled' by Andrew Tate videos before rape and murders, court told 2 months ago:
I was a teenager when he released the Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers LPs. It was pretty obvious to me that the more extreme takes were an act. Which is very different from Tate and the like, who claim society lies to men and they are revealing the truth.

On the steam deck 3rd party launchers are a major pain in the ass.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Hell, if I knew however much money I spent, someone would always foot the bill if I ran out, I too would spend like no tomorrow in order to get more money for free. It’s plain logic.

Why did $manager hire two more people? We don’t need them, half the team has no idea what they’re doing here and are just fucking around all day already.

Yeah but he still has some budget left, and if he doesn’t spend it all next year he’ll get less, and we can’t have that.
