The dumbest thing about wikipedia exec pay is that there’s barely anything for them to do that would justify it. It’s not like they’re plotting the course of the company. It’s doing the same thing it did 10 years ago and if everything goes well it’ll still be doing the same thing 10 years from now.

Here, let me take care of the 2026 workload by writing the Email for them.

Dear staff,

please continue as before.

XOXO Your CEO

This is all a sick game

Could be the name of the website. Close your eyes. Walk away from the screen.

This generation of software companies really seem to have abandoned all previous goals for “Let’s see how shit we can make this!”

“Sir, if we can finish our robot it could help with any household chores and even take over most of the care work for the elderly. Then in future patches we could make it waterboard the user unless they get the waterboardless premium subscription. Then we’ll increase the cost and slowly reintroduce waterboarding even for subscribers.”

Guillotine baiters

His comparison to snake on his Nokia is actually good because in its current state AI is like a little gimmick for many users. Sure there are use cases but it can’t reliably perform any truly critical tasks because it makes terrible mistakes.

Imagine Nokia shoving snake in customers faces as it is being done with AI. Every phone marketed as OPTIMIZED FOR SNAKE. A big snake button on the phone as a shortcut to open it. Snake integrated everywhere. Trying to send a text? Would you like to play a round of snake first?

That’s what AI currently feels like.

I don’t see many users upgrading the memory on a laptop like this either but would criticize soldered RAM based on the aspect of repairability. T14s are often used in business which means hundreds of machines handled by IT departments. Boards will die and technicians will throw them out including the RAM. Now granted most companies don’t bother with hardware repairs anyway but somewhere down the chain someone will have these machines on their workbench and the easier it is to fix them up the better.

You got the perfect time. My rhythm is to get up, go to work, come home and nap for 20-45min so I can then tackle the rest of the day. It’s like a soft reset.

It’s a baby step thing. They want to develop for Linux but so far it’s about 3% of steam users that use it. So when a studio does its testing/optimizing they focus on the platform their player base is using most.

Obviously there’s a negative feedback loop here. Players avoid Linux because of issues which causes devs to neglect it because of player numbers which causes issues in the game…

Steam is pushing Linux currently but it’s hard to overcome the dominant position windows and consoles have. We’ll get there though.

Yeah they do though. His bet before the 2008 crash was similar. It’s where the market is pointing. Publicly available data suggests there’s a big ass bubble. The timing is essentially a bet. Last time it almost wiped him out because he was a bit early. We’ll see how it goes this time.

There’s many cities like this. I remember reading about Mexico City being on a similar path. Ground water keeps sinking rapidly so they keep digging until some day they won’t be able to and it’s all fucked.

Then apply thermal paste generously

Flooding the zone too stronk

All crappy IoT devices ever made. They aren’t used in bot nets all the time because hackers like the challenge of hacking them so much. Security simply isn’t a priority.

Always sounds like marketing to me since all we really have so far are shitty LLMs. If they actually were close to AGI there’s no way any single government would stop the armsrace to it anyway. We’re currently pumping all our eggs into the AI basket and headlines like these encourage it. They imply this breakthrough that is around the corner that will justify the current state of the market while the reality will most likely be a massive disappointment.

I feel like you got it backwards. Letting them run is doing more damage than turning them off would.

supporting himself part-time as a kitchenware courier

is that even a real thing?

It do be like that. Last time I was scrolling I’d see the most obvious LLM generated threads and wonder who’d respond to this trash. Well it’s other bots with your occasional oblivious human in-between.

Am I destroying my autism gains by having a foreskin? This explains why I don’t care much for trains. Someone hand me some scissors.

To be fair the PS store always was the IGN of store ratings. The game doesn’t start but instead a small plastic projectile gets shot out of the disc drive straight at your balls? 3/5 PS store rating.

Nobody in your party who can decurse?
