The last stu-3 stopped working in 2009.
I hate that i can no longer trust what comes out of my phone camera to be an accurate representation of reality. I turn off all the AI enhancement stuff but who knows what kind of fuckery is baked into the firmware.
NO, i dont want fake AI depth of field. NO, i do not want fake AI “makeup” fixing my ugly face. NO, i do not want AI deleting tourists in the background of my picture of the eiffel tower.
NO, i do not want AI curating my memories and reality. Sure, my vacation photos have shitty lighting and bad composition. But they are MY photos and MY memories of something i experienced personally. AI should not be “fixing” that for me
i bought a roomba 2 years ago. It wasnt the cheapest, but it was the only company that isnt some cheap, chinese knockoff brand. American designed and operated still had some advantages for me at the time.
This was before USA plunged into facism though. Now i’m not sure what i would buy.
Drag queen reading a story to kids: wont someone PLEASE think of the children!!!
Shutting down school lunches and food supports for children: this is fine…
Making people fill out TPS reports… Musk is worse than bill lumberg
Meanwhile, millionaire artists didnt dare say one word to speak out against a facist president in the audience, or against genocide.
Pure greed. TSMC built tons of capacity since the pandemic, RAM makers have cut back production because of low prices.
There is tons of capacity out there to make more graphics cards, even including all the big data centers using them for AI. but i guess its more profitable to only sell cards to rich gamers and AI companies at inflated prices
We should be using the german loanword “verboten”. It’s much more accurate in 2025
sure nvidia is being a shitty and greedy public corp capitalizing on a massive tech bubble… stock price has to go up forever. nothing surprising here…
but jensen huang has been at the helm of nvidia for a long time the entire existence of nvidia and is undeniably a smart MF’er… and i’m not even some kind of nvidia fanboy.
AMD for life… and dr. lisa su is even smarter than cousin jensen. i just hope she doesn’t come out as a trump bootlicker as well
imagine being as smart as jensen huang and having to talk to a big orange baby…
trump’s circle is generally sycophantic morons like musk and zuck. jensen might actually be the smartest person trump has ever talked to
Norway: don’t get high on your own supply…
please call it the “New California Republic”
Italians rule. First Luigi, now these guys
People share photos and videos all the time on mastodon. What is the difference with pixelfed?
i mean… trump sucks…
but if an entire industry relies on exploiting undocumented workers, then i’m not sure trump is the only bad guy here
lol… all our food is imported from the US and mexico (except a few seasonal fruits and potatoes in the summer)
I’m simply sharing my own experience. It’s not a “shot in the dark”
There would likely be fewer signal users because a lot of normies only installed signal because one or two of their friends convinced them to. Once they figure out that interOp exists, why would they keep using signal (where only 2 or 3 of their paranoid weirdo friends hang out) when they could just use whatsapp to talk with their signal friends?
Ive had multiple people tell me that they only keep signal around because of me… While i’m flattered, it doesnt bode well for signal.
People trying Signal because it’s compatible with WhatsApp that everybody uses would lead to more Signal-to-Signal chats, and that’s a good thing.
75% of my signal contacts would delete signal and just use whatsapp if interOp happened… I’ve already slowly lost 1 or 2 contacts a year because i’m the only one they know on signal and they either gave up or forgot to reinstall when they got a new phone
Whats to stop a terrorist from just flying drones into an airplane engine and killing everyone? Seems easier than hijacking or suicide bombing
