  • Why couldn't they just stick with Office... It's 100% explanatory, short, and to the point.

    365 never made sense to me. Is it supposed to represent the year? Like available 24/7 but instead it's there for you 365 days of the year? And if that's the case why the fuck would I care? It's software, of course it's available to me whenever I want. It's not a 7/11 hotdog rotisserie.

  • Ugh I fucking hate Microsoft so much. Why does it exist.

    Hey, you. Yeah, you. The person who currently is reading this and works for Microsoft. Fuck you. Quit your job and find something else.

  • Well not as an individual but the owners/caretakers of the land are legally required to remove it and remediate the area.

  • Depends on the rules. Some places it would be illegal to disturb anything in conservation areas like parks but other areas it would be illegal to ignore invasive plants and not remove them.

  • These ChatGPT articles are ruining the internet, it's almost all I can find now when searching for information.

    I ask a question in google and then get sent to a website which has a novel about why my question is a good question and then gives the simplest 5 outcomes/solutions (i.e. did you turn it off and on again?) with zero photos or diagrams or anything and it's just a giant waste of my time.

    I only need to open a webpage for like 5 seconds before I know it is going to be worthless.

    Is there a way to blacklist a web domain from ever popping up in your Google search results again?

  • I think it's a terrible idea to run a sitting vice president as the candidate for the next election.

    Since people often want change, they will ask "what will you do different?" And the VP will have to respond "Nothing" otherwise people will ask "Well, why aren't you doing that now?"

    It will be interesting to see how Vance responds to these questions if they decide to run him to take over for Trump.

  • Sums up AI problems

    Jump

  • Is the reason for AI always patting your back and reiterating what you want simply to buy time for the background processes to calculate what it needs to respond by giving a quick and easy response?

    Is it is just to congratulate you for your inspiring wisdom?

  • English is silly

  • Why do you personally hate Christmas?

    Jump

  • If there was no religious connotations and the gift giving shit was done away with I wouldn't mind.

    I do like how entire communities get together and do the same things like light up the streets with Christmas lights and all follow a nice theme.

    But I prefer Halloween due to the lack of religion and the only expectations are to give out candy to children.

  • I feel like any paper that's published that cited a paper which got retracted, should automatically be reviewed and assessed to determine if they should also be retracted.

  • Meta tolerates rampant ad fraud from China to safeguard billions in revenue

    Jump

  • Amazon also endorses fraud. Found a product which had a blatant lie in the description and specification pages but do you think I can find the report product button? Absolutely no where to be found.

  • Data centers need electricity, utilities need years to build – who should pay?

  • Why raise residential tares and not commercial / industrial rates?

    Oh, because businesses are subsidizes through taxes. Of course.

  • Stack Overflow Rolls Out Native Ads in Q&A Feeds for Funding Boost

    Jump

  • I really hate the term native ad. It makes it sound like it isn't the worst thing ever invented.

    It should instead be called invasive ads or undercover ads.

  • Pebble maker announces Index 01, a smart-ish ring for under $100

    Jump

  • There's no guarantee they will even be around to recycle the rings in two years time. The way tech companies are going these days it's probably not very likely.

  • Imagine the chaos in Europe if the ocean currents fail to bring warm temps up from the tropics and the UK, Germany, etc all start to get weather similar to mid-northern Canada which even Canadians try their best to avoid.

  • How often are the terms of service evident at the time of purchase? It's unreasonable to assume at the checkout that the price is only for a limited time of use. I doubt the put it on the box or on the Amazon page when you purchased stuff like this. Are you supposed to buy it and then return it after reading the fine print in the instruction booklet after opening it up?

  • [Opinion] AI finds errors in 90% of Wikipedia's best articles

  • I mean, even if chat GPT uses the referenced maximum of 40 Wh and OP did one query per day for 31 days, that would be the equivalent energy usage of leaving a 40W light bulb on for a little over a day, 31 hours, no?

    I don't see how that's enough energy equivalent to burning down 4 trees as previous commenter stated.

    It's not good, but I don't see it as unfathomably wasteful.
