Rivers don’t flow up the mountain, let’s not kid ourselves that there is “innocent” AI usage in this context.
- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 loses Game of the Year from the Indie Game Awards 6 days ago:
It’s a gray zone in my opinion.
The final art will still be based on the AI (read: stolen) art. Where do you draw the line between a unique piece of art and copying existing art?
- Comment on Judge hands Lambo.com to Lamborghini after ruling owner acted in bad faith 2 weeks ago:
He bought the domain for $10000. Not sure what your definition of poor is, but in my opinion someone poor isn’t “investing” in expensive domain names.

- Comment on Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading 1 month ago:
Yeah, it happens to prevent a mass sell-off because of speculation.
Even if the news is positive, postponing is enough to make people speculate, so it’s a valid reason to halt trading.
Although I doubt it’s gonna be positive news for shareholders.
- Comment on Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading 1 month ago:
They have so many great IPs that are just gathering dust or in development hell, yet they keep milking the same few games every year.
- Comment on Where do I even start? 1 month ago:
Judging from your comments, you seem to be lacking some basic knowledge and skills to get started.
None of the comments here are useful without getting those up to speed.
You definitely might want to start of looking into networking: how do computers connect to each other and the internet.
Since you’re using Linux Mint, I do assume you have some basic knowledge of using the terminal and basic commands.
Next you might want to learn Docker, which is useful when learning self-hosting, as most solutions will have an option to use that.
- Comment on Elon Musk says Optimus will 'eliminate poverty' in speech after his $1 trillion pay package was approved 1 month ago:
You just know already he’s gonna scam, grift and cheat to get that pay package, not do anything worthwhile.
And if he can’t get it, he’ll cry and sue to get it anyway.
- Comment on Red Dead Redemption 2 overtakes Mario Kart 8 as the 4th best-selling video game of all time, boasting 79 million sales 1 month ago:
This is my sentiment with all recent Rockstar games.
Fantastic settings, great stories, but so much bloat. It’s cool that there’s so much stuff to do, but all the interruptions from actually playing the game are so tiresome.

Agreed, the rules were pretty clear, why did he only contact the mods the second time?

Isn’t Deep Rock Galactic an extraction shooter?
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 1 month ago:
Dated, not outdated. Or do I totally have the meaning of the word wrong?
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 2 months ago:
Dated does not mean obsolete. But it’s hard to deny a digital clock is superior in almost every way.
Unlike the other examples you’re giving, I fail to see in what aspect an analog clock beats a digital one. Sure they have a certain charm, but functionally their just behind their digital counterpart.
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 2 months ago:
Analogue clocks are a great example of kids having to understand a concept and apply it. And it’s simple enough that anyone can learn it.
I often see examples where children are required to memorize a set solution, instead of showing understanding and reaching the solutions themselves.
These clocks are somewhat dated, but removing them just feels like another symptom of a failing educational system.
- Comment on Elon Musk says he needs $1 trillion to control Tesla's robot army. Yes, really. 2 months ago:
This guy is so desperate to be called the first trillionaire, it’s just really pathetic.

Seems you already lost some oxygen supply
- Comment on Are we living in a golden age of stupidity? 2 months ago:
you would cease to function if oxygen suddenly went away.

According to you logic, I shouldn’t even go to the store.
Why am I doing free labor when someone can pick it up and deliver it for me?

- Comment on 2 months ago:
Stuff would he cheaper if we get rid of cashiers. So I would actually be earning money.
Maybe stores should introduce a self scan discount.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Grab a scanner, scan while picking up items, pay and leave store.
It’s barely any extra “labor” and no need for useless jobs.
- Comment on How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves? 2 months ago:
Just put a big sticker on it signifying it has a tracker inside.
Even if they would want to steal it, it might just make them doubt enough to leave it be.
- Comment on 'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high winds 2 months ago:
I don’t consider that, indeed. Bonus points for reading comprehension.
USA is the only country where I hear the president say that green needs to go and fossil fuels are the way to go.
Showing a snapshot of coal usage also makes no sense in this context. A country cannot just drop fossil fuel from one day to the next. If you check relevant data, you’ll see that the share of green fuel is actually rising in China.
Sadly, the industry is still very corrupt, where USA is he prime example, with the president is pretty much admitting to it publicly.
- Comment on 'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high winds 2 months ago:
USA is pretty much the biggest country actively fighting against better methods in favor of fossil fuels, so I’d say it’s an accurate statement

Just like AI can write code, it can also design, architect, implement and test…badly
No manager cares about validation. Today’s mindset seems to be “ship now, fix later”
- Comment on "Dan Da Dan" Season 3 Announced 3 months ago:
Don’t think I’m really spoiling much by saying he’s pretty much present all the time in the manga.
Although I find he becomes a lot more tolerable than how he was initially represented.
- Comment on Campaigners urge EU to mandate 15 years of OS updates 3 months ago:
No, Windows 11 added extra, unneeded hardware requirements.
Obsolete in this case actually means obsolete. Windows 11 literally blocks the update because you do not meet requirements, such as not having a TPM.
Technically, there are ways to bypass this, but not for a casual user (and it probably breaks some ToS)
- Comment on Is there a self-hosted project that does base64 url decoding in a privacy respecting fashion? 3 months ago:
There is no such thing as a base64 encoded url. Part of an url might hold base64 encoded data, but never the url itself.
These online tools aren’t working because you’re using them wrong.

Very edgy
- Comment on Time to bash Americans again 3 months ago:
It’s a dumb comparison, as their reason for owning guns is entirely different and tied to national defense, not self-defense and “freedom”
