Oh sorry, no thank you, I’ve been shaking too many hands lately, you know how it is fellow world leader

Is it even doxxing to call out a username? It’s his @, we can all see it

I feel sorry that it didn’t happen weeks before the holidays like what he did to his own employees. Let him sit with failure through Christmas dinner.

AI isn’t evil. Generative AI isn’t evil. AI has existed for 20+ years now, I studied it back in my uni days.

Corporations, how they trained it, how they use it now, how they are willing to pave the planet to force it down our throats is evil.

This is one of those things as tech people we have to come to terms with and understand. No technology is inherently good or evil, it’s what people do with it.

Didn’t read the article did you.

Hey same, except my mom’s mom went through the depression here in the states and it rubbed off on her.

She loves to call out how particular I am about food, when actually I love trying new foods! I simply don’t like getting food poisoning from whatever hot dish/casserole she made 4 months ago that has been sitting in the fridge. At Christmas one year she brought out canned whipped cream, rediwhip, and it was 3 years expired! I didn’t notice and was sick for a week!

Nothing made me care so little about buying things than the corporations desperate want for me to buy them.

New games? Eh I’ll replay mass effect or skyrim. New hardware (before the crisis), looks real nice, don’t think I need it. The more they pushed me to buy the less I cared. If they all started chilling out maybe I’d get back into it, but doesn’t look like it.

Nope sounds right, sounds like she had heart failure already and this kicked it off. She wanted to go out the way she lived, as a Karen.

To all of us who have worked a drive thru before, utterly unsurprised. Of course she was willing to give her life up over a sandwich.

Karening to the max

What they aren’t going to try it the day they receive them? Do any of us not play with new toys the same conditions we get them?

Yeah thinking the same. 10 series is new enough where 24 pin mobos were a thing, and so if it doesn’t have its own power connector then it’ll need quite a bit from the mobo.

Fair, I do the same

That’s very good wording from them. I was worried they were going to try and throw ublock under the bus, when really ublock has had a boot on it’s neck from these big tech giants.

I’m very mixed. It’s a small team, they do great work and keep the internet functional for a huge chunk of us, and they’re burned out. It’s a defeat. However no one who uses adblock should be using Facebook either, it’s a garbage platform that is literally 97% ads. (I think I saw someone flipping through posts and only got to a “friend” post after going through like 30+ other garbage)

Sad and frustrating news.

I can honestly put up with a lot, especially in a doctor’s office. Hell it’s the only place I’m okay with something up my ass. I would walk out if my doctor came in with those glasses. I will go and find a new doctor. There is no way I am okay with a personal camera in that exam room.

Our parents. My mom is addicted, spends every spare moment endlessly scrolling. I tried for a while to get her off but you can’t help someone who doesn’t want to be helped. No shit she spent 10 straight hours on it once. Didn’t move at all, she is their ideal consumer.

Didn’t they just force it today or something? Not sure if I’d call that a huge commercial success if they’re forcing all of their users to use it

That LLM response from the search bar when you were just searching for a file? That’s not free, we have to pay for that! If you didn’t want it you shouldn’t have accidentally triggered it by needing to search for a file. That’s on you.

Did you watch the video?

Well you seem fun to talk to. I like how you assumed a lot about me from one comment.
