More than likely none of these AI companies will exist 12 months from now. Their carcasses will be devoured by entities with enough money to buy up the scraps after the bubble pops and the market implodes. Neither SpaceX, OpenAI or Anthrop

Yep. But in truth the alternative cannaboids are interesting on their own. That having been said I don’t live in a legal state but… it really doesn’t much matter anymore.

Couldn't agree more. Thankfully I believe this is largely just overblown hype. Silicon Valley has gotten way too high on it's own supply of bullshit and the AI craze is that being taken to the next level of insanity. Regardless,

LOL You speak as if my internet shit talking will make an iota of difference. Regardless of what I want, the future is what it is. Deal with it.

It's really depressing to see that big tech is essentially universally pushing Snake Oil. AI is a lie. LLMs are a legit tech that have some purpose, but LLMs will never evolve into anything remotely resembling the actual definition o

This bill does nothing to address the problem of nation state propaganda spreading via social media. It just allows American politicians to claim a fake national security victory over a Chinese owned company while ignoring the fact that Am

Just when I think I have a handle on how stupid our politicians are... they find some way to make me realize they are even dumber than I previously thought. According to HuffPost it was a 352-65 vote, so this stupidity was bipartisan. So m

Computer Fun was the first progamming book I ever got. It made me into a coder. I got it when I was six at the same time my father and uncle gave me and my siblings my Uncle's old Apple II for Christmas. I still got a physical copy o

I guess this is a thing on Windows now. However at the moment, it seems to be a very insecure thing. But hey it's early days... I predict they'll eventually get it right 125 patch Tuesdays from now. https://fosstodon.

Isn't running commands as admin, in the same terminal window, already possible via the use of runas.exe? Granted I haven't daily driven Windows in years but IIRC that does the job albeit with clunkier syntax.

I mean that's great... but I've been using Brave sync across a wide variety of devices (Linux, iOS, Windows and MacOS) and it has worked without a hitch for quite awhile.

This is one reason I'm over and done with proprietary consoles. So tired of shitty company's like Nintendo being able to call any kind of shot. They may still know how to make fun games and do that on accessible and reasonably p

If by "not allowed" you actually mean, "implements safety protocols so easy to circumvent that they may as well not exist", then I agree. Otherwise... not so much.

LOL I'll stick with my throwback to what websites used to be like when they were simple, quick to load and asked visitors only for their attention and not much else ;)

Glad to know that I'm not the only one feeling out of place in tech as of late. Thanks for sharing!

I blog just for the hell of it. No client side trackers, no ads, just the spew of thoughts I need to get out of my head by vocalizing them. It costs me money every month and brings in no revenue and I fucking love it. https://j

One day the pendulum will swing back in the other direction. Until then, those of us who disagree with putting absolutely everything into the cloud will just have to sit back and bide our time.

Love it. This is exactly what somebody should do. Somebody needs to seriously fork Blink the same way that Google forked Webkit / KHTML way back when.

"ChatGPT is actually notoriously good for coding. I don’t even use it for anything else at this point." I can't take a coder who says this seriously. Come on. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to expose the fact that

I stopped running a Tor non-exit node from home a few years back, because a lot of websites and platforms blacklist any IP associated with Tor. I couldn't actually watch anything on Hulu for years (though they were still happy to tak

Yeah this is definitely part of it. At my current job, my manager has basically made it the problem of his manager. Everybody wants to cover their own ass and in doing so, no progress is made. Downright depressing, lemme tell ya

If you've worked in tech and have any degree of actual talent, you have run into the following scenario: You are on a team and that team has at least one member that isn't pulling their weight. The reasons why generally range from
