- Comment on How to gain outside information / communicate safely if your government becomes oppressive and shuts down the internet? 1 week ago:
To communicate inside city without 3rd party knowing you can put ethernet cables along power lines or across laundry lines. Cable between router and switch can be 100 meters long. For long distance you need to use radio frequencies and radio can be triangulated.
Best way to avoid triangulation is figure out cars plates that do it, the hardware for triangulation is big - especially the antena so they will most likely keep it in same car(s). Once you have plates you can just watch car working hours and keep emitting signals after those hours but of course if you’re targeted they might change hours.

- Comment on The college-to-office path is dead: CEO of the world’s biggest recruiter says Gen Z grads need to consider trade and hospitality jobs that don’t even require degrees 1 week ago:
I’m not going to write that big corporations went into hiring freeze for office jobs in developed countries and made a list of countries they are allowed to hire for office jobs. Your country is not on the list, you won’t be hired. They’re spending their money for robots, computers and AI. That’s what you get from monopolies.

- Comment on If God (or any creator of the universe) exists would he be made out of atoms? 2 weeks ago:
The probability that God exists is roughly the same as probability that you can find electron in the certain time and place. Is God made from atoms ? It’s hard to tell because first we need to answer question, if humans are made from atoms or from empty space ?

$70 million on gpu cluster + $21 million yearly on employee AI tools and training. That’s like 21 $1 million indie games they could found blindly per year with zero expectations, but no push the money to the slop and get nothing in return. Fuck them.

they’re not killing them, they’re monopolizing what they have by adding mandatory cloud like apple and google so you have no way to switch, sure they will lose customers but those who will stay won’t leave anymore because there won’t be way back

In 2015, for example, he took home about $18 million, a small sum compared to 2025’s $96.5 million.
the company pushed its overall 2025 revenue to $281.7 billion
Microsoft has around 230 000 employees.
That means that 1 Microsoft employee in 2025 earned for company roughly $1 280 454
That how monopoly looks like.

For those who don’t know you can see the games people are playing during that event in steamdb
I played so far.
Heroes of Might and Magic Olden Era - nice demo but the graphics map interest points blends with background and it looks like it’s unbalanced.
Alchemy Factory - automation game / shop simulator - also nice demo but the controls are a little clunky and hard to get used to. - Comment on ‘I realised I’d been ChatGPT-ed into bed’: how ‘Chatfishing’ made finding love on dating apps even weirder 3 months ago:
