- Comment on how to watch less youtube on my tv? 5 days ago:
Read up on “executive dysfunction”, I’ve got this too and many evenings end up watching youtube even when I wanted to play a game.
One thing helps with this with 100% success: multiplayer. When my buddies are online and ask to play something, I’ll immediately close youtube every time without issues, no matter how interesting the video is. Sometimes we don’t even play anything and just chat, but even that seems healthier than watching youtube alone.
I know it’s easier said than done (getting gaming buddies), and doesn’t usually cover breakfast time, but it might help if you tried that.

Yeah, they are basically doing the job as a hobby already.

It’d be really odd if there was no ‘d’ and ‘b’, too.

It’s AI slop. I tried to find it and only references to images like this are from Facebook, Instagram and Threads. No hits in any of the NASA or Juno archives. The real photos of Jupiter are amazing, but don’t look anything like this.

- Comment on Assume You Will Be Hacked: AI is enabling a deluge of cyberattacks the likes of which we’ve never seen before. 2 months ago:
Vibecoding in production is definitely introducing vulnerabilities, but this is more about etablished systems. Current AI allows for cheap, fast and relatively easy exploration of vulnerabilities which in turn allows attackers to target systems that were previously not worth the effort.
There are a lot of bespoke systems, usually legacy code running on outdated OSes on obsolete hardware. This includes hospitals, banks, infrastructure, and many businesses. All viable targets now.
“Security by obscurity” doesn’t work anymore (if it ever did).
- Comment on I still can't get over Skyrim. Are there any games that can replace it? 2 months ago:
I’d throw Kingdom Come in there, too
- Comment on However you say it, youre wrong. 2 months ago:
In some languages the word “data” is always plural. It feels natural to say it like that in english, too.

Off topic, but “legitimate interest” has a really foul taste after years of seeing noncompliant cookie banners. (I mostly got rid of them with browser addons now)

Better yet, JPEG and MP3 are basically the same compression algoritm.

Wow, no AI. I would be a pleasure to have such stupid device.
- Comment on Dumbledore and Prisoner's Barbecue 4 months ago:
The first part is the best - a beat-for-beat parallel of the first book. Then it starts to deviate and gets kind of self-absorbed.
The author, Eliezer Yudkowsky is a famous AI researcher with somewhat controversial opinions. You may have heard of his piece “If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies”.
He’s also witten “Rationality: From AI to Zombies” which might be interesting if you like the “rationality” aspect of the fanfic. It’s really dense, though - I’d very much recommend anyone to start with HPMoR.

- Comment on Windows 11 is finally getting a movable taskbar 4 months ago:
You mean the thing that should’ve been there from the start? The thing that was possible since launch using Explorer Patcher or Windhawk?
Yeah, I’m still on Windows due to specific issues I could never solve with Linux (although I’m itching to try again). If I was not able to have top-side taskbar with small icons, never collapsing and left aligned (as it should be), I would rather put up with any issues Linux gave me than use Windows 11 with its defaults.

- Comment on Why are we not getting stress relief games where we take our stresses out on normal people? 5 months ago:
Ha ha, it’s funny reading this immediately after a 4 hour long session of Supermarket Together. Chatting with friends, slacking off, causing mischief (like renaming the store, moving shelves), and being a menace in general - to robbers, innocent customers, employees, or other players.
There’s a whole genre of games you’re describing. Single and coop. Many are free to play.
- Comment on How many active robots do you think exist today on this planeeet by your best estimate ? 6 months ago:
The definition I go by:
A robot is any machine that can manipulate or interact with the physical world.
A stricter definition could include “senses” and “decisions”, but it doesn’t need to be AI. It doesn’t even need to be electronic at all.
There are definitely more robots than humans.
