- Comment on Discussion: Do you think the next steamdeck will be x86 or ARM? 6 days ago:
Sounds unlikely to me.
Valve would be taking on a huge compatibility problem in exchange for maybe better battery life in scenarios that already have good battery life.
- Comment on Nvidia ain't done with x86 as it taps Intel Xeons to babysit GPUs 3 weeks ago:
You need x86 (or arm) to run the general purpose OS and systems management tasks that feed the GPUs.
- Comment on Lawsuit claims discrimination by Workday’s hiring tech prevented people over 40 from getting hired 3 weeks ago:
Of course it does. Automated decision systems simply automate discrimination. Nobody does the hard work of sanitizing biased data from the inputs. They just feed biased data to “neutral” algorithms and act shocked when the computer decides men who like baseball are “better” candidates than women who like softball.
In this case I’m sure it picked up that the plaintiff was from a historically black college, and based on discrimination baked into its inputs, decided to reject him.
- Comment on SoundCloud changes policies to allow AI training on user content 5 weeks ago:
Sounds like this is for AI powered music recommendations.
- Comment on Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI 1 month ago:
Furries are a sexual kink.
- Comment on Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI 1 month ago:
So only people sharing a sexual fetish are allowed to complain about non consensual exposure to it?
- Comment on Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI 1 month ago:
Using an analogy to show why shoving your sexual fetishes everywhere is gross.
- Comment on Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI 1 month ago:
LOL furries want project their gross kink on everyone.
- Comment on Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI 1 month ago:
It’s like telling a woman she must be a closet lesbian because she doesn’t want to see boobs everywhere.
- Comment on Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI 1 month ago:
It’s gross, like when someone puts big titty anime girls on a tech blog, it’s off putting to anyone who doesn’t share the fetish.
- Comment on Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI 1 month ago:
Furries apparently do not understand why we dislike fursonas.
- Comment on Mr. Deepfakes, Largest deepfake porn site shuts down forever due to critical service provider terminating their service permanently. 1 month ago:
So I guess their training set wasn’t backed up? Otherwise they still own the domain and just set up shop somewhere a little sketchier.
Storage is pretty cheap these days but I don’t know how big video generators can be.
- Comment on Indian court orders blocking of Proton Mail 1 month ago:
If you start blocking VPNs you are cutting off your country from most telework/outsourcing because corporations need VPNs to their branch offices.
- Comment on Indian court orders blocking of Proton Mail 1 month ago:
Can India even block ProtonMail if the users also have ProtonVPN?
- Comment on Mark Zuckerberg personally lost the Facebook antitrust case 1 month ago:
That’s plan B
- Comment on She was chatting with friends in a Lyft. Then someone texted her what they said: Ride-sharing company says incident was not part of audio recording pilot it’s testing in some U.S. cities. 2 months ago:
Lyft blames their driver but they’re the ones who gave their drivers audio recording software in the first place.
- Comment on YouTube considers a daily timer for users looking to cut back on Shorts 2 months ago:
Can we get a 0-minute timer?
Everytime I tell Shorts to go away, YouTube tells me it will bug me again next month.
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 2 months ago:
I’m not going to play chess with a pigeon.
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 2 months ago:
LOL I’m not your chemistry teacher, kid.
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 2 months ago:
That’s not how radioactive half lives work.
Learn about radioactive decay and what half life means.
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 2 months ago:
Which is why your suggestion of simply recycling copper won’t work. You don’t have copper, you have a radioactive alloy.
- Comment on Birth control: US scientists develop world’s 1st male contraceptive pill 2 months ago:
Easier to get guys to take a pill than agree to a needle to the ballsack.
- Comment on Birth control: US scientists develop world’s 1st male contraceptive pill 2 months ago:
I suppose the longer term human studies will show if it decreases white blood cell count.
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 2 months ago:
Casio F-91W☢️
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 2 months ago:
Yeah, but it’s radioactive nickel-63 for many decades until it all decays.
- Comment on Birth control: US scientists develop world’s 1st male contraceptive pill 2 months ago:
An exciting development, but the drug affects the body’s use of Vitamin A so I think they need more studies looking for non-reproductive side effects.
Night blindness and immune dysfunction are associated with vitamin A deficiency.
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 2 months ago:
If it’s a small battery intended to be used a long time, pretty much a guarantee these are going to end up in the general landfill waste stream.
I wonder how much contamination one of these will cause if it goes through a waste incinerator. If they have 50 Curies of activity, that’s more than a million times what’s in a smoke detector.
- Comment on YouTube cracks down (again) on ad blockers. 2 months ago:
I think someone’s quarterly goals include “reduce ad-free viewing hours” because every few months we get a half assed block that is countered hours later.
- Comment on Three years later, the Steam Deck has dominated handheld PC gaming 3 months ago:
There’s really nothing much better on the chip market if you’re concerned about power/battery life.
Valve has no reason to get into a hardware pissing contest. They just want to grow the Steam pie so don’t expect a SD2 until there’s a compelling difference.
