Optical drives next I guess lol

What’s even going on anymore

That’s a bit sad

They were kinda little time capsules of various corners of YouTube adjacent internet culture over time

The chances of a true philanthropist beating out the psychopaths currently at the top of the chain, is basically nil. They will always fight dirtier.

You need to ensure a government can exert power over the largest organisations in its country. If that ever becomes an issue, the organisation might start behaving as a de facto government of its own and start treating the actual government as a vassal.

Basically we need to kick corporatist politicians out of our governments before they finish rolling out the red carpet for the end of democracy, and start chopping up and/or nationalising these proto-megacorps. If only a few control the tools that put us all out of work, we’re not getting anything close to utopia.

And I suppose I’ll continue my plan of staying the hell away until this administration is long gone

This feels pretty hard to enforce, are they gonna let people self select what they provide or are they perhaps going to give a list of services to give accounts for? The latter would have me looking either like a ghost that disappeared about 7 years ago (for most public social media) or one that disappeared about 3 years ago (if Reddit is included)

What happens to people who don’t use social media at all? Are they going to be treated with suspicion?

The point of life is to enjoy it

You seemingly made the choice to make your life less stressful for about the same compensation as you got before for a stressful job.

I don’t think you need to be particularly smart to understand that’s a pretty great trade off. Just from what you’ve written here, I completely understand your reasoning and it makes complete sense to me.

Your colleagues are giving crabs in a bucket energy. You never agreed to work harder than you need to, you don’t owe it to anyone.

Especially back before online shopping existed

Damn I’ve bought a lot of crucial stuff over the years

I assume they’re my current memory kit too since I pretty much always go with them

Well that was a fun journey

Lol why?

Genuinely seems pretty arbitrary given you need to use their app to start the cast anyway

It’s a passive cosmetic effect once you get to that level

If they’re gonna buy a nas anyway, how many years to break even?

A brain that needs to be tricked into falling asleep half the time

Usually it’s not even negative thoughts or anything like that, it’s just busy problem solving

Like if they’ve even got a single braincell, why would someone so obviously tell on themselves like this

Truly baffling

I was a student during the 360s life

So much split screen Halo with my house mates

This article is kinda flawed as it runs with the assumption trump has a well thought out and concrete political ideology he follows.

Trump is a narcissist who literally just cares about his own power, his own wealth and ensuring he stays out of prison.

In a 1 on 1 meeting, he never stands any chance against a charismatic politician. We see it over and over again.

Given that, 75% of this article seems to be the author upset Mamdani is using the same trick to help get trump off his back.

Holocaust education was “confusing” young people into sympathizing with [the people being decimated in a genocide] instead of [the overpowered genocidal aggressor]

Wow what a ghoul

They’re not confused, they just have a modicum of empathy

Yeah it’s not a particularly obscure character in some languages, so it’s not really going to affect an LLM at all, it’ll already know what to do with them. Hell you could write in MSN era fancy text using characters incorrectly and I’d not be surprised if an LLM had no issue decoding it.

Heart’s kinda in the right place, but the only outcome is going to be confusion and frustration from humans.

Edit: was curious about the assertion I made about MSN text

Seemingly no trouble

If you can get an old final-intel-gen MBP in decent nick, they can make pretty decent Linux machines if you’re okay with not being able to do any internal hardware upgrades.

tiny-dfr is your friend if you happen to get one with that touchbar F-row, which is probably the only big downside compared to a conventional laptop.

Unfortunately there’s a criminal in charge of the US

Cloudflare is increasingly a SPOF for the web

It’s hilariously probably at the point where it’s beneficial for them from a PR perspective to recommend alternatives to new customers now
