Fuck the economist

Wealth caps, now! Nobody should be worth over 1 million

Not just taxes, I want wealth caps

Nobody should have a networth over 1 million

Fuck off with your fake gifts you orange clown

Sad as this is, how is this news worthy, though?

So if I understand correctly; Guy murders a child, but he’s rich, so he’s out on bail?

Only in the USA

Members of the Georgia State Elections Board voted Wednesday to issue a formal letter of reprimand to Musk’s America PAC over the billionaire technocrat’s illegal scheme to get Trump elected.

Are you fucking kidding me? A letter of reprimand? Don’t forget to wave your finger disapprovingly!

These glasses cams are small enough to no longer be visible as a camera.

I’m all for freedom to record outside but this is a step too far as this is not me making a video for me, this is Facebook using idiots to record the world 24/7 for them.

I’m fine with humans recording humans, immnot fine with companies recording me

I sometimes use ait, but specifically for subjects that I don’t know about and don’t want to know about.

I’m a developer, I’m all open source and Linux etc. right now I need to build a fairly straightforward rsync solution so that I can regularly update. A directory from a windows server and fuck me is it a shit show. On Linux it’d be a 5 minute task, here I’ve spent hours trying to first get it to run with cygwin which let me down a rabbit hole through the planet hell and back.

I fairly quickly pulled in Claude to give suggestions on how to get rsync with windows to work because I don’t want to know anything about windows. I want to actively keep that info out of my brain lest I get infected by it somehow, so I just spent an hour copy/pasting solutions and results to and from Claude

About half it’s solutions were wrong and dumb, but it "knew"certain things like certain versions of rsync in cygwin having a specific bug that affected me that would have me spend hours digging through gulp windows documentation

I got to the point where I dumped cygwin and I’m going to try wsl instead (should have done that from the first moment, probably, but Claude did not tell me THAT)

Point is: AI, so far, is pretty useless and generates little to no usable specificoutput, but it’s fairly good at getting you I right directions. For subjects you really do not want to get involved in, it’s a nice way to just move forward without a lot of headaches

That is, of course, if you’re okay with being recorded, studied, proddded, probed, have your asshole size measured because these fuckers want EVERYTHING from you in return for giving you almost nothing

you will be meat for the coltan mines.

Is that a reference to Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles?

Did somebody let Lennart out again? You know he shouldn’t be walking around alone outside, he’s just going to get himself into trouble.

On a slightly more serious note: systemd does some things nice, a lot of things it does very badly, and it really seriously needs to stop trying to push it’s grubby little fingers into every sub system out there.

All that is one thing, but the main issue with systems always seemed it’s main developer, Lennart Poetteting who was never one to shy away from drama and controversy, and not in a good way.

Sooooo you want to stop gun violence in the US so your first instinct is to fuck over 3D printers because gun violence is okay as long as the guns are bought from the normal vendors?

This paw isn’t about lowering gun violence, this is something pushed to protect the gun manufacturers

Or else Microsoft will fold?

That’d be nice

Very nice

Also very scary as this is just the next step after what Boston dynamics has already shown. You can bet your ass that military leaders are jerking off over these things

Granted, their battery life will still be Abysmal but that too is being resolved over time.

I’m not afraid of self aware terminators. I’m afraid of sad dictators with tiny penis syndrome getting access to shit like this in, say, a decade from now.

Is it?

Most people won’t care and continue using it anyways.

I won’t, for sure, but most people are fucking idiots when it comes to this stuff

Mmmm, looks like I’ll have to get my porn elsewhere from now on

That’s not a new thing, doctors had this for at least a decade with WebMD.

No, you don’t have cancer

Ding ding ding

It’s also the worst of the absolute worst and I will never understand why anyone would WANT to use it

I use it because I don’t have a choice. Want to work with government? Government uses teams, so fuxk your choices…

But given the choice? I’d rather roll around in olive oil to then jump into a lion’s den than use teams

Honestly there wasn’t that much anyway. Most good stuff is still on Reddit anyways

It’s like watching 15 year olds having a conversation while burying to appear intelligent
