Instead it is a message to tyrants: The US is for sale, you may loot and pillage as you desire. The law cannot and will not stop you.

They are for your instance admin but not the whole fediverse.

What I’m still not sure of is this… When these websites die will the LLMs stagnate with no new data to use for training or will they somehow keep up with new technology and eliminate the need for certain basic questions that would originally have required human input?

the FCC was looking for feedback on the hate of data caps

A Republican lead FCC (Ajit Pai or some other smug fuck) will never mobilize the FCC to curb unfair and unreasonable data caps.

I did computer work in an old hospital and there was a secret bathroom in the basement near the server room but it was terrifying because it was used to store CPR dummies so if you wanted to poop in there you’d have a dozen open mouthed elderly torsos staring at you.

I only go in the server room to t-pose in front of the giant air conditioner to cool off.

Facial recognition confirmed he was a criminal and the scanner confirmed he had a gun! Of course we opened fire instantly. How could we have known it was just some guy with a water bottle?

Yeah this is one of those things where accessibility settings can probably get you 90% there but screenshots and machine learning can probably close the gap somewhat reliably (even if it’s much less efficient).

Perfect beautiful lies folks. Everyone knows it.

I can’t believe that there are people are out there just raw dogging the Internet with no AdBlock. The advertising is so aggressive and intrusive. I legitimately cannot tolerate using the Internet when 80% of the page is filled with attention grabbing bullshit.

Where else am I going to share the fun stuff I find with StumbleUpon?

If it was free and I just had to pay the subscription I’d think “Can’t my phone already do all this?”

I asked my employer provided AI assistant if this is true and it assured me that natural snowfall was disinformation invented by leftists in order to destroy our capitalist utopia.

This message brought to you by Jill Stein who pops up every four years to grift money and accomplish nothing except cozying up to Putin. I guess there is still the brain worm dead animal guy?

Third parties in the US are unserious. I wish that weren’t the case but that’s the reality.

They’re not expecting any one person to implement the whole thing.

Hahaha, tell that to leadership! 😩

Back in the day people paid for ringtones, wallpapers, etc. Dumbest thing ever were ‘ringbacks’ where you paid to have a song or something play when people called you. So the people buying it didn’t even hear it, they just forced other people to listen to a shitty low fidelity garbled mess of a song they liked while you waited for them to pick up the phone.

It’s kind of a paradox when you think about it. Good reviewers are often just regular people with a passion for tech but as they become more popular and prolific they become part of the industry itself. Once that happens even if they try to stay objective and critical their perspective is so different from regular people that reviews are just part of the sales and marketing strategy rather than pro tips from an enthusiast.

My career as a sysadmin consistently has me veering toward security and compliance and my brain is absolutely fried on trying to figure out what these huge docs actually mean, how they apply to the things I’m responsible for and what we’re supposed to do about it.

Props to all the folks that can do it without losing their mind.

Their mom’s basement, most likely.

Right in the middle of Berlin.
