- Comment on Microsoft open-sources infamously weird, RAM-hungry MS-DOS 4.00 release 2 weeks ago:
Even if they were, it would be easy to just decompile and figure it out. Even DOS 5.0 would make more sense to open-source.
This is just another argument to revert copyright laws back to 25 years, and give this tech back to the rightful owners: public domain.

Ahhh, yes, this damned 404 Media article again. I’m not going to re-hash my arguments here.

LLMs are still good for the kind of flowery language you need in HR, but not for any sort of fact-based generation.
Think of it as being creative, not logical.

I know they aren’t from the US, because an American wouldn’t ask such nationally-ignorant questions.

What is even the purpose of this post? If you’re going to be so ignorant of US history, at least don’t act so high and mighty about your implications.
How do Americans still allow guns to be so easily available?
The 2nd Amendment, for one. It’s a constitutional amendment that hasn’t changed since the Constitution was written. It’s also the 2nd, and not say, the 20th. It requires a 2/3rds majority in Congress to change a constitutional amendment, and that sure as fuck ain’t happening with today’s batshit crazy GOP. They can’t even keep their own party together with the right-wing crazies having fights with the extremely-right wing House majority leaders because they have the gall to “compromise”, which is the whole fucking point of Congress.
Besides, all of this talk of “banning guns” is unproductive. If you want to make change, start with regulations. Canada’s got a shit ton of guns, and nobody’s bitching about them, because they are properly regulated.
Isn’t it well past the point where incidents involving guns should almost never happen?
What the fuck does this question even mean? Is what “well past the point”? Why would “incidents involving guns” should almost never happen? Brits have gun bans, and they still have gun incidents.
Banning a thing doesn’t make it go away. I thought we learned this shit with the War on (some) Drugs.

Let’s be real here: Even without AI, 99% of human-generated content is still shit.

Claude writing self-promoting articles about Claude? I’d believe it!

How big of a paycheck did the “journalist” get paid on this one?

- Comment on Mr Robot: Full Series Retrospective 2 months ago:
Yea, it makes me miss /r/itsaunixsystem a bit. We would make fun of bad TV computer hacks, but Mr. Robot was the one show that stayed true to actual hacking and social engineering. Every time somebody tried to post a screenshot from the series and say that it was Hollywood fakery, it would get a bunch of responses back sourcing the real thing.

This is good ammo for the fight for Net Neutrality, honestly.
