  • That last sentence. I admit, I thought they were serious. Now imagine how many people thought it was also the truth.

    It's the bitcoin bubble all over again.

  • That’s on AMD hardware, mind.

    How is wayland on (older) intel CPUs/GPUs nowadays?

  • To be precise, that term means they are being exploited by another, wealthier country. The USA have become their own banana republic.

  • “They told me that people I testified against were being released from prison,” Gonell said. “And to be mindful.

  • Reality:

    • Basic $2000
    • Standard $2000
    • Premium $2000

    And if you're lucky to have a union, they fight for raising that by $10, with employers pushing back for every cent.

  • ...until the bitter end.

  • End-of-the-USSR-y

    Definitely not. That was relatively peaceful and harmless, even though it took barely a decade to get another dictator.

    Tienanmen-Square-y

    Much more likely. Aren't they already deploying the military against their own citizens?

  • FWIW Snopes shows perfectly here with uBlock Origin at full blast, no third party content coming through.

  • During the hireing process they talked about green transformation, democratization, automation, stuff like that. Turns out they use these tools to squeeze truck drivers into working for as little money as possible.

    I don't work in IT, but this is so familiar.

  • Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang:

    We’re basically holding the planet together

    Good ol' Muskrat:

    Optimus will ultimately be better than the best human surgeon with a level of precision that is impossible — that is beyond human… People always talked about eliminating poverty, but actually Optimus will actually eliminate poverty.

    Plus some "AI is perfect" bullshit from a few others who should know better. But they have to keep the bubble intact.

  • And they cite Vivaldi as their go-to browser. European, sure, but not open source and based on Chromium. I'm always skeptical of Vivaldi users; they seem to value nostalgia (remember Opera?) over facts.

  • You should know that pessimists hate it when they are proven right. Well, at least I do.

  • That's "I wrote my first shell script" type of bad. I remember Ubuntu+GNOME used to be full of such crap in their early days. There are still some helper scripts around from those days (the naughts), you can still catch a whiff of it.

  • If you have a suitable device, Sailfish OS is pretty much Okay, right out of the box. Well, you have to flash it first, but apart from that.

  • I still want to know what they library was doing.

    Haunting

  • Hallelujah!

  • "Unique" and "leading through instinct" are just words for "he has no idea what he's doing" or "uninhibited asshole".
