- Comment on Donald Duck: Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely 1 day ago:The only ethical thing you can do with $1 billion. 
- Comment on Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: “Working from home makes us thrive” 1 day ago:This has been correct for all of human history. I’m not sure why anyone would have assumed the invention of the cubicle would have changed this. 
- Comment on You're so predictable 2 days ago:Because million would be incorrect. 
- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 2 days ago:You mean having an AI watch everything you do isn’t a good selling point? 
- Comment on You're so predictable 2 days ago:I did a cursory glance at the groups to see that it was 428 rnillion, so I think that’s enough. 
- Comment on You fool 2 days ago:And when you’re incorrect. 
- Comment on If it happened, would anybody even question it? 3 days ago:Fuck man, I’ve been looking for a place to get a good opstume. 
- Comment on Everything has a bit of overlap 3 days ago:To a physicist, sure. To the lay public, observe means you’re watching it. If you’re looking away, you’re not observing. When in reality, it doesn’t matter who’s looking, if the particle is interacting with other particles, it’s being “observed”. 
- Comment on plump pumkins 3 days ago:Mass. Whatever. :P 
- Comment on Everything has a bit of overlap 4 days ago:I’d like to nominate Observer Effect for the Worst and Most Confusingly Named Thing Ever award. Funny meme though. 
- Comment on plump pumkins 4 days ago:Well, I doubt they can get larger than earth, so I’d say it’s somewhere between 3,000 lbs and earth’s weight. 
- Comment on Researchers show that training on “junk data” can lead to LLM “brain rot” 5 days ago:Just like humans. 
- Comment on Is compressed air the best way to clean my pc that I consider dusting once every 2 years? 5 days ago:Yeah. It won’t damage it with static electricity or physical contact. Unless you’re using some really powerful air pressure. 
- Comment on Donors for Trump’s $300m White House ballroom include Google, Apple and Palantir 6 days ago:The Epstein Ballroom? 
- Comment on Blood Moon Bones 6 days ago:Ridiculous unachievable AI generated beauty standards. 
- Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright 1 week ago:Not that it isn’t wildly ridiculous and stupid to have an internet connected bed, but couldn’t you just unplug it if it’s overheating? 
- Comment on it's that time 1 week ago:Omg. xD Octopus, an animal famous for having no bones. 
- Comment on it's that time 1 week ago:With ribs all the way down. xD Even if it were accurate, it still wouldn’t be accurate. 
- Comment on it's that time 1 week ago:Is that a fucking SCORPION SKELETON???
- Comment on Protect yourselves! 1 week ago:hurts so good 
- Comment on You mean there's a better way‽ 1 week ago:But then how would you store it in the fridge without the cardboard shards to wrap it in? 
- Comment on Then and Now 2 weeks ago:It took him thirty years to eat the back part of the TV? 
- Comment on it's true! 3 weeks ago:The shape of the roots of the shrubs is somewhat exaggerated. Many do go that deep, but they’re not that wide all the way down. There are only a few types that grow roots that look like that. There are also deep root grasses if you want a lawn, but don’t want to ruin your soil. 
- Comment on Can someone fact check this 3 weeks ago:But you don’t know if the equation they used was for if the owl is swimming through the deep ocean. That would take a lot of calories. 
- Comment on Can someone fact check this 3 weeks ago:You can’t fact check something that doesn’t provide any of its work. Where did they get those numbers from? What equations did they use, and do they actually apply to this situation? Since it’s non-falsifiable, you can just disregard it. Claims require evidence, not assertions. 
- Comment on Why do companies always need to grow? 3 weeks ago:This mostly only happens to companies with outside investors, and it’s in order to make the investors happy. Companies owned privately by one or a handful of people who all just want the company to keep going, make a decent profit, and be sustainable, don’t always exhibit the “need for growth” behavior. It’s usually because the investors don’t really give a shit about the company or its mission, they just want money. 
- Comment on beans 🫘 3 weeks ago:Whats wrong, sweetie. You’ve barely touched your refried fetuses. 
- Comment on If A.I. is so fast and efficient, and CEOs are paid so much, why not replace CEOs with A.I.? 3 weeks ago:Real answer: because the CEO is the figurehead of the company. An AI can do exactly what a CEO can do except actually interacting with people. So the only necessary and “irreplaceable” job of the CEO is to meet with people and get them to make a deal or invest or whatever. That being said, I don’t think there’s any job an LLM can replace a human for. Human’s aren’t hired as next word predictors. 
- Comment on We Need To Rewild The Internet 3 weeks ago:Hmm. That’s a good idea. 
- Comment on We Need To Rewild The Internet 3 weeks ago:Ok, let’s start by getting rid of Gmail and Outlook (Live, Exchange, whatever they’re calling it now).
