  We should shame him into fixing it.

  I bet Elon Musk couldn’t fix it! There’s no way he could figure out how to spend a billion dollars fixing it!

  This is a shit article, from what’s clear to be a shit author Kyle Orland, Ars’ Senior Gaming Editor.

  Yea agreed - though it does make an important point (in perhaps the opposite way it should have been made). Local water use is being impacted greatly - it may not lead to us having no water nationally, but its absolutely leading local communities to struggle to get people water.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When it comes to total water use, AI data centers are a drop in the bucket⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Water use is probably a drop in the bucket, but the electrical use sure as hell isn’t.

  We’re supposed to be curbing fossil fuel use, instead we’re burning our way to hell to mint trillionaires.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Electric cars are starting to take over the world⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Meanwhile legacy US automakers are busy trying to bury their heads in the sand again. I’m sure that will end well for the US economy and consumers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Aerosol⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  2018 to 2022 didnt see much change (and given how far until its fully returned to normal, I think you can see qhy - it takes a long time to fully heal), but we’re certainly pretty far into success compared to where we were.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Aerosol⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Tbf, its not even yet a win technically.

  TCO is expected to return to 1980 values around 2066 in the Antarctic, around 2045 in the Arctic, and around 2040 for the near-global average (60°N-60°S). - Source

  Well, unless you’re Mercury.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Witcher Expansion? In 2026?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Same for No Man’s Sky and Risk of Rain 2. Kinda nuts, what’s next a new HL1 spin off from Gearbox?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what’s your best “nitric acid acts upon trousers” moment?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably use dawn soup first, then wash with very cold water to prevent your pores from opening further?

  Usually they’re still used to label images for training AI

  Man, I cant believe someone left the Antarctic freezer on for 500 years.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Hades hard to beat?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn’t say its hard to beat, but it is hard to 100%.

  Eventually you’ll get past Hades - just gotta keep at it and get upgrades/luck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft has a new idea on how to deter students from MacBook Neo - 9to5Mac⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But you also own the device, can upgrade and repair it, and you arent the product.

  Totally worth that up front cost imo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft has a new idea on how to deter students from MacBook Neo - 9to5Mac⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Or just a Framework and install Linux, skip Microslop

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft has a new idea on how to deter students from MacBook Neo - 9to5Mac⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Which is really funny because most (all?) students get 365 free from their school already

  Indeed, despite losing a case that says they need to allow third party apps - they’ve found a way to still eat their cake.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google removes Doki Doki Literature Club! from the Play Store⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Would be rather funny if they added it to EGS

  We need to fight harder against this sanitization of media and the internet…

  Fuck fascists like ICE and Trump.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fake News⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Right, we still regularly have cases.

  Just completely ignores history, changes in human hygiene, and developments in medicine that weren’t vaccines (“let’s just ignore antiserums, sulphonamides, and streptomycin!”).

  Microsoft uses Oracle, to give you a sense of scale.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oracle fired up to 30,000 workers via email after a 95% profit surge. Tech companies are cutting almost 1,000 jobs/day⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Literally just siphoning wealth from society.
