- Comment on Bug turns one of the biggest fears about Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses into reality 3 weeks ago:
We’re supposed to believe this was a ”bug”? 😂
Maybe in the eavesdropping definition of that word.
- Comment on PC shipments fall 20.1 percent in “sharpest decline” since Q1 2023 4 weeks ago:
Windows 11 certainly can’t be helping.
- Comment on Internal revolt as 'nuts' Apple execs appease Trump: 'There is not a soul who is for it' 2 months ago:
A protest vote is never meaningless. Sure, they probably don’t own enough stock to kick these people out — but that rising number on the vote tally sends an interesting message.
There was a time when smart people at Apple went off to form new ventures and bring talent with them — companies like Nest and General Magic for example. You don’t see much of that anymore. I do wonder if missteps like this will inspire employees to do this sort of thing again.
- Comment on Internal revolt as 'nuts' Apple execs appease Trump: 'There is not a soul who is for it' 2 months ago:
Pretty sure a lot of of these Apple employees own stock in the company. Perhaps they should remember to cast their vote when it comes time for board elections.
- Comment on Apple One and Apple TV subscription prices increase by up to 20 percent 2 months ago:
Will they make more money? Or just lose 20 percent of their subscribers and be lucky to break even?
- Comment on Windows has taken a significant drop over the years, going from being used by over 90% of people to being dropped down to under 60% 2 months ago:
At this rate, it will. Windows 11 is a turd, and i don’t expect it to get any better unless shareholders get rid of the current CEO.
Foreign governments are trying to wean themselves from US tech. That’ll be a big chunk soon. I expect they will roll their own unix/linux distros.

Microsoft customers beg Microsoft to get a better CEO.
- Comment on Logitech breaks your mouse with a software update 9 months ago:
On the Mac, an expired cert should prevent new installations by default, but for existing installs it shouldn’t have had any effect. Logitech did something wonky here that prevented existing driver installs from working at all.
- Comment on AI data centers may soon be powered by retired US Navy nuclear reactors from aircraft carriers and submarines 10 months ago:
And who will pay for the disposal and storage of the waste produced?
- Comment on New reactor produces clean energy and carbon nanotubes from natural gas 10 months ago:
- Comment on New reactor produces clean energy and carbon nanotubes from natural gas 10 months ago:
There’s nothing clean about natural gas. You have to remember how it destroys our environment as it’s pulled out of the earth.

lol. No.
- Comment on First highway segment in U.S. wirelessly charges electric heavy-duty truck while driving 10 months ago:
I’m convinced semi truck hauling is a government jobs program at this point.
- Comment on First highway segment in U.S. wirelessly charges electric heavy-duty truck while driving 10 months ago:
They don’t always. I’ve seen plenty of semi trucks hailing these horizontally on the highway similar to how concrete beams are hauled.
- Comment on First highway segment in U.S. wirelessly charges electric heavy-duty truck while driving 10 months ago:
If you could somehow safely combine induction charging with electrical transmission lines, it would be worth it. No more lines on poles.
- Comment on TikTok signs deal for sale of U.S. unit after years-long saga 10 months ago:
Another media outlet to be part-owned by Oracle/Ellison.

You’re gonna want that higher pay when you’re spending your days unraveling spaghetti code written by AI.

- Comment on Microsoft CEO says the company doesn't have enough electricity to install all the AI GPUs in its inventory - 'you may actually have a bunch of chips sitting in inventory that I can’t plug in' 1 year ago:
To make more electricity, they should try burning some of the hot air that comes out of Nadella’s mouth.
- Comment on Microsoft pushing for profits "well above the industry average" is reportedly behind Xbox's layoff and cancellation misery 1 year ago:
Really? I thought it was just poor leadership from the top.
- Comment on $96.5 million for Nadella | Microsoft's CEO receives record pay in a year that saw 15,000+ layoffs 1 year ago:
Android and iOS have made companies fortunes. But keep telling yourself Windows Phone needed to die.
Same with game consoles. Switch I & II have made Nintendo a ton of money.
These Microsoft products would have been profitable in the hands of a company that actually cared about them.
- Comment on $96.5 million for Nadella | Microsoft's CEO receives record pay in a year that saw 15,000+ layoffs 1 year ago:
All the more reason to spin off their consumer products divisions rather than killing them.
- Comment on $96.5 million for Nadella | Microsoft's CEO receives record pay in a year that saw 15,000+ layoffs 1 year ago:
Microsoft would be better up split into multiple companies. They’re killing windows with lack of innovation. They’re also putting Xbox slowly out of business. They have no phone on the market and they barely have a tablet with the surface line. They also stopped making peripherals.
I think the current CEO is just trying to make Microsoft into the next lumbering IBM.
