- Comment on The past 18 months have seen the most rapid change in human written communication ever 3 weeks ago:
This reminds me of some stuff in Charles Stross’ Accelerando. The book mentions how AI was rapidly filing patents and lawsuits and all this stuff by itself constantly. It was terrifying as a fictional idea, but here we are, it’s real.

“…illegal protest…”?
Oh right, the US Constitution doesn’t exist any more.
- Comment on How can A person find out if they were hired as a DEI or fired because of it? 4 weeks ago:
The point of DEI is to overcome bias. If you are hiring, and you have a white guy and a woman of color, and the woman is a better choice, are you actually able to recognize that fact or will you be biased in favor of the white guy without even realizing it? And yes, the “without even realizing it” is literally the most important part, and the reason DEI programs/training are necessary.
So being “hired as a DEI” means you were hired for your qualifications despite being at a disadvantage due to social biases, and being “fired as a DEI” means you were likely the victim of overt discrimination.
- Comment on Don't forget where we came from and what shaped us as a species. The Jungle. 1 month ago:
Our ancestors have been using sharp sticks, heavy sticks, and sharp rocks since they could walk upright, so I’d support that, too.

Together? Because I’ve never been able to play any of their games without major desync problems. The same desync bug has been in every one of their games since the beginning.
- Comment on [Discussion] Should Twitter links be banned from lemmy.world? 2 months ago:
That is an excellent point.
- Comment on [Discussion] Should Twitter links be banned from lemmy.world? 2 months ago:
Twitter no longer exists.
But X links should, indeed, be banned.
- Comment on Yep, you did. 2 months ago:
It seems to me that they were both right. If I didn’t know better, I’d be inclined to think that the wealthy and powerful used their works as a roadmap instead of a warning.
- Comment on It shows you love them 2 months ago:
The CCP is right wing, so they’re getting a double-scoop of red-hued authoritarian desert. Nothing contradictory there.
- Comment on David Fincher used AI for the 4K restoration of Seven 2 months ago:
Are the existing home releases different? It sounds like Finchers problems are mostly image quality issues, not changing the actual content of the film like Lucas did.
- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 3 months ago:
Jury nullification is a Constitutional Right.
Not that the US Constitution is worth a damn in 2024.
- Comment on What your coffee preparation method says about you 4 months ago:
?
Downvoted for lumping tea in with coffee. How dare you.
- Comment on What your coffee preparation method says about you 4 months ago:
You know what, this is really accurate. I won’t touch Ubuntu or a pod machine. I will use an old percolator, if necessary, but it’s not something I would ever pick over other options. I also bounce between other distros just as often as I bounce between coffee brewing methods!
I wonder where openSUSE falls on this paradigm? Moka pot, maybe?
- Comment on 7 days to die is no longer Early Access, but still looks like this 4 months ago:
It’s always been a very ugly game. I never expected that to change… but games are a lot more than graphics. Minecraft still looks like Minecraft, after all.
- Comment on M*crosoft's search engine is borderline unusable 6 months ago:
Borderline?
There’s still DuckDuckGo, or Kagi if you are rich.
- Comment on Gen Z job seekers should be willing to work for free, long hours, ‘willing to do anything,’ says Squarespace CMO 8 months ago:
Experience is priceless, but this is just justifying exploitation.
