  • What have you looked up on Wikipedia recently?

  • Mark Zuckerberg Had Illegal School at His Palo Alto Compound. Neighbors Revolted

    Jump

  • Well, to the surprise of practically no one, he clearly doesn't.

  • OpenAI probably can't make ends meet. That's where you come in

    Jump

  • Yes, I suppose claiming the AI service providers are 'too big to fail', despite having virtually no real customers, no significant revenue and them solving no real problems (but certainly creating plenty) would be just about the only way this whole debacle could possibly get any more idiotic. And it's naturally a superb way to introduce a third step of making the US taxpayers hold the bag.

    So... Given how the 21st century has gone so far, that regrettably does seem rather plausible.

  • Uh, that's great but no thanks. If you'll excuse me, I have to go ensure the Faraday liner of my phone pocket and wallet are both in good working order.

  • Controversial startup's plan to 'sell sunlight' using giant mirrors in space would be 'catastrophic' and 'horrifying,' astronomers warn

  • "We also plan on patenting atmospheric air and granting reasonably priced usage licenses for limited daily volumes to every man, woman and child on the planet. It'll be great!"

  • Mark Zuckerberg Had Illegal School at His Palo Alto Compound. Neighbors Revolted

    Jump

  • Well, that raises a number of uncomfortable questions. Who were all these kids and who were their guardians? What was so special about the curriculum of this private 'school' (if that's what it truly was / is) and why did it need to be situated in Zuckerberg's private compound? If he wanted to run a school, it's not like he couldn't afford to just build or rent property for one somewhere else.

    Fuck, this has all sorts of bad vibes.

  • Fortunately not, as I enjoy the benefit of not being a US taxpayer. Well, it's a great plan: First US citizens will pay for propping up the stock value of his company so the fun can continue a little longer, and then they pay again - at least trice over - when the AI bubble inevitably busts, and drags the entire US economy down with it.

    He's about to be a really popular guy.

  • Cool! Thanks for the explanation. I thought maybe each player got a certain set linear distance per move and the objective was to intercept or evade to engage.

  • Okay. What is this game and how is it played? I need to know.

  • Oh look: Another complete nutcase in a position of terrifying power.

  • Nah. They'll all be needed to clean up the inevitable mess.

  • What kind of situation would you have to be in to think, "I really wish there was an American here right now."

    Jump

  • Nice try buddy, but if I'm paying for brisket, you better believe I'm going to be the one eating it. On the other hand... I'm Danish and the Tex-Mex around these parts is - well - I would pay you for that. Acting as a food taster deserves fair remuneration. And hazard pay.

  • Aliasing

    Jump

  • I can see that. Speaking as someone who used to do the majority of my graphics programming in good old mode 0x13 (320x200x8bpp, indexed) I know the appeal well enough. Mayhaps it's just my inner Signal Engineer always hankering for proper band limiting.

  • Your interpretation seems entirely reasonable to me. For a given value of reasonable.

  • What does Oracle actually do? Take other businesses' data hostage for profit | Good Work [11:47]

  • Much like Vampires, no sane person should ever invite Oracle into their home: Both are bloodsucking parasitical leeches, and you'll never be rid of the affliction.

  • Trying to figure out if the mesquite smoked brisket served anywhere that isn't Texas is worth it?

    Urgently needing to get rid of a purloined crate of Ozempic while the po-po is beating down the door and some dickhead clogged up the toilet?

    Dunno really.

  • Yeah, but "Wonka Goths Orange Punch" sounds like an unfortunate Jpop band name.
