I just use regular glasses to tell me what’s going on in the world. Works great.

Poop knife?

They count on you recognising the brand name and eventually forgetting why.

I’ve used it for a year now on Linux, Android and Windows with no problems at all. Maybe something else is causing your issues.

They’re pedophile hunters in the same way Saul Goodman is a criminal lawyer.

Whether it’s a thing will depend on whether you pay your bribes and flatter the right people.

“We’re not discussing specific roadmaps at this time, but the collaboration is complementary to Intel’s roadmap and Intel will continue to have GPU product offerings,” Intel told PCWorld, reiterating the commitment that Intel’s Michelle Johnston Holthaus made before she abruptly left the company.

I don’t see any commitment in that statement. Indeed it seems carefully worded to avoid making any particular commitment.

These people suffer from a severe lack of imagination. Raised to pursue success along a solitary economic metric, they ignore all arts and sciences extraneous to that pursuit. They treat the world outside their interests like a children’s game they’re not really into. Their wealth insulates them from friction so effectively there’s no incentive or pressure for them to develop an imagination, or diversify their knowledge to the point where an imagination might emerge on its own.

That’s the startling thing about these tech guys: they are utterly oblivious to life outside of their extremely narrow little domain, and they occupy that domain largely because they never had the imagination or curiosity to look past it. The Silicon Valley milieu they grew up in told them that success consisted in this one thing, and they just swallowed the story and dedicated their lives to it without ever pausing to question, investigate or think for themselves. They buy into ideologies without ever exploring alternatives. They condemn the humanities with no understanding of them, and no interest in learning. They constantly attempt to solve philosophical, existential or cultural problems with technology, because they don’t even notice that they’re not engineering problems. These are dull people, the sort who’d stockpile art as an investment and status symbol without ever looking at it for more than a few seconds. They’re rich financially but in other ways everyone can see how impoverished they are except them.

All the tech CEOs are playing this game, even in the established companies. When was the last time Satya Nadella or Sundar Pichai spoke non-bullshit?

US culture conflates money with all kinds of things: intelligence, importance, respectability, work ethic, maturity, creativity, “good genes”, even godliness. Many people just can’t see the very clear truth that to be super-rich you usually just need to be a lucky asshole.

I like the bit where they wheel in the equivalent amount of data in stacks of punch cards, and the hard drive takes up more space.

(Not fair I know because they didn’t show the punch card reader, but the bits on these platters must be ridiculously large.)

RAID0 doesn’t give you any protection or redundancy, just speed.

Went there to update my password but got reminded what a horrible experience Plex is these days, so deleted my account instead.

Side loading will still be possible but the apps themselves will need to be signed by the developer through Google, so Google ultimately still controls what can be installed. Maybe someone will crack it.

Then you will still find MAS useful.

Never heard of them. Is this a generic beige box PC-compatible desktop? There were thousands of those brands in the 1990s, just small shops building PCs from standard parts and sticking their badge on the box.

If artists get a break from competing against plagiarized AI slop, that’s not petty vengeance.

If artists see generative AI companies going bust, that will be something.
