People who have never been online before, people who don’t understand the meaning of the phrase (ESL etc), children
- Comment on Why don't compasses have just two Cardinal directions (North, East, -North, -East)? 3 days ago:
We do, they’re just combinations of the 90 degree ones.
Southwest. North-Northeast.
- Comment on Trump Family’s Crypto Empire Collapses: Nearly $1 Billion Wiped Out as World Liberty and Memecoins Crash 6 days ago:

Aren’t there already coffee beans that wild cats shit out whole and they sell for a premium and they’re like, incredible?
- Comment on Will LW *PLEASE* do something about that hit-and-run account? 1 week ago:
It does but apparently this user is going back (likely with a script) and scrambling all their activity.
- Comment on Valve dev counters calls to scrap Steam AI disclosures, says it's a "technology relying on cultural laundering, IP infringement, and slopification" 1 week ago:
Sci Fi keeps trying to teach us lessons, and instead we keep using it as an instruction manual.

“The people who advocate for AI” are literally running around claiming that AI is Jesus and it is sacrilege to stand against it.
And by literally, I mean Peter Thiel is giving talks actually claiming this. This is not an exaggeration, this is not hyperbole.
They are trying to recruit techno-cultists.
- Comment on Indie game developers have a new sales pitch: being ‘AI free’ 2 weeks ago:
Imagine thinking that disliking AI is racist, or a class war wedge issue.

Used to?
- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy 2 weeks ago:
There is a lot of specialized shit that Excel does that calc isn’t up to par on.
You also can’t easily cripple calc with group policy (no pesky macros or external connections, you little babies! Copy and paste or get dead)
- Comment on Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy 2 weeks ago:
To be fair, current laptops don’t handle Outlook and Word very well.
It’s probably not the hardware that is the issue.

Down with the hydriaechy!
- Comment on Is there a practical reason data centers have to sprawl outward instead of upward? 2 weeks ago:
Neither does the ground or the continents wouldn’t drift.
Subduction is just suboptimal duction. And what flows through ducts? Wind. Checkmate.
- Comment on Is there a practical reason data centers have to sprawl outward instead of upward? 2 weeks ago:
You are failing to account for the weight of the atmosphere on the foundation

- Comment on Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anyway 2 weeks ago:
So based and repelled bro. You’re for sure postmaxxing. Absolutely mewing on the haters. more dunks than a 90s kangaroo. You sure told those bitches.
Anyway to be serious for a moment: “the internet is full of wreckers so why even bother” is a fucking wrecker argument. You are the problem. Do you see?

It’s a haiku:
It’s not DNS There’s no WAY it’s DNS …it was DNS.

Quad9 for life
- Comment on "Does Hitler have a right to privacy?" and other big questions in research ethics. 3 weeks ago:
If he has any offspring or family, even those that disavowed what he was and did but couldn’t stop him, his DNA has privacy implications for them.
That’s why shit like 23andme is extra bad. All it takes is like one relative per couple branches and they could probably build a copy of anyone’s DNA.
Now there’s a database that psychos can use to “purification research”. But surely nothing will go wrong guys, that’s just science fiction.
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 3 weeks ago:
You didn’t present one piece of evidence that $600 is a losing price point for the base model (and you even stated that explicitly). All you’ve done is shown that Apple is known for their outrageous markups; something we all can see with our own eyes.
Given they’re greedy enough to markup storage and ram so much; I’m willing to bet they won’t bother with techniques like “loss leaders”. I bet the margins are just extremely tight but that profit is above zero.
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 3 weeks ago:
The cheapest mini ain’t a loss leader if no one buys it
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 3 weeks ago:
The US Air Force built the Condor Cluster out of 1,760 PS3s in 2010 which I believe saw some actual use. So more than just publicity stunting.
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 3 weeks ago:
Why would anyone who’s in the market for a by-itself motherboard ever want something you can get as a modular piece as a built-in to another expensive piece?
Besides, if you want everything soldered on you can just buy a laptop motherboard.
Or a Mac
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 3 weeks ago:
…and you got one.

What did Sony do to Palworld?
- Comment on Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos 3 weeks ago:
I don’t believe they need to erase it from history in order to do that
