  • What are some signs that you need new friends?

    Jump

  • Been there. When you don't feel a connection. When you don't want to respond to their comms. When you feel dread about speaking with them.

    Fwiw, I have the most wonderful friends. Some people just move apart.

  • The AI Slop Backlash Is Actually Having an Impact. Platforms are finally recognizing that people don’t want to consume AI slop.

    Jump

  • They will shove it down our throats, regardless.

    I was conversing with a coworker, the other day. He told me that his wife used to work in SEO. She now focuses on AI marketing. I brought up companies that try to manipulate reddit to get mentions and he affirmed that's what she does. What an evil cunt.

    I played it like I'm joking that she's evil. Fuck her.

  • TIL that one company owns Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, Match.com and at least 40 more dating sites/apps

    Jump

  • Twenty years ago, dating apps would introduce you to people you wanted to be with. In fact, there were no apps. They were websites.

    That I actually had success meeting someone that I love and care about shows a flaw in their business model rather than a successful match. They accidentally lost two customers after extrapolating a lot of money from me without being helpful for more than a decade.

  • I'm so sorry that my gun robbed a bank. I'm not responsible for the cash it stole.

  • What is the worst subtle insult you've ever heard?

    Jump

  • David Cross, of Mr Show (and a lot of other stuff), talked about how the frontman of Creed was gonna play celebrity poker with him. He'd trashed that guy a lot. Dude shows up: "Thanks for the words."

    Cross: "Yeah, well."

    He said he was particularly glad about that. It rocks.

  • TIL that the term "Jaywalking" was invented in the 1920s by the auto industry to shift the blame for accidents from drivers to pedestrians

    Jump

  • Not surprised at all. I don't even need to check it out because I know they deliberately inhibited public transportation to increase profits.

  • US Cities Cancel 50+ Flock Surveillance Contracts Amid Public Backlash

    Jump

  • Doge overstated claims to have saved Americans $110bn, watchdog finds

    Jump

  • Wow, what an awesome achievement by the man who has been lying about self-driving cars for years, plus Mars, plus whatever the hell else. It's pretty cool. Oh, he was working for another very open liar? That's like scoring a double on a bet or something. I'm sure we didn't just save money, we probably made money.

  • Scientist says RAM pricing has risen to normalized 2007 levels, AI shortage undid 20 years of progress in a matter of months — memory prices had been falling exponentially for decades

    Jump

  • For all the reasons I despise Sam Altman, this is the primary reason. It was shrewd of him to lock up the entire market, but that doesn't make it any less sociopathic. The entire world is negatively affected by this. What an asshole.

    Jump

  • What happens to all those Stargate RAM wafers, and excess datacenters?

    The bigger question is what happens to the world-economy when the largest players bottom out and the companies betting on them are massively downgraded because of their huge investments in a fantasy about eternal growth. Hope everyone is setting aside extra cash; it's gonna make 2008 look like a walk in the park.

  • Schumer backs El-Sayed, vows Democratic ‘big tent’ will win Senate

    Jump

  • Good job. You're keeping Dems in power, ensuring they never have to change. I hate the current admin being in power and making people I care about at risk. It's the fault of Dems, not Leftists who want actual change.

  • Schumer backs El-Sayed, vows Democratic ‘big tent’ will win Senate

    Jump

  • Oh, you mean the guy who has been lying about a fictional couple that he thinks about when he casts his votes? Yeah, I trust him 100%.

    I don't know anything about this other than Schumer being a fraudulent asshole. Vote Socialist / Leftist. Fuck Dems. And if Schumer is right about this person / anything, it's by accident or a lie.

    “What people don’t understand is that a big tent is a strength, not a weakness,” Schumer said.

    Wow, Charlie. Nobody understood that until you explained it to us. What a fucking political thinker.

  • DOGE overstated savings on federal 'receipts' website, auditors find

    Jump

  • You mean the richest piece of shit on the planet is a corrupt liar? It can't be so!

    What a fucking asshat.

  • Senators demand crackdown on wildfire “prediction market” bets | Fire experts warn such markets could incentivize arson.

    Jump

  • I didn't expect to open the comments and laugh. Well done.

  • Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

    Jump

  • It's changed the price of RAM, that much is assured.

  • Bernie Sanders urges progressives to vote Democratic in November

    Jump

  • No. I won't. I'm paying attention to the people left of center. Fuck dems.

  • Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

    Jump

  • Well, he hasn't been describing our future for at least two decades. /sarcasm

  • finally something worse then curl | sh

  • This needs to be killed with fire.
