- Comment on Return of 4GB RAM in smartphones by 2026 amidst DRAM crisis, microSD slots make a comeback 1 month ago:
We need to make a distinction between real AI (GAI) and what is commonly termed “AI”, e.g. machine learning and LLMs. Obviously I’m talking to what we actually have, not making some sort of imaginary bioconservative bigoted statement against digital persons that don’t exist.

- Comment on Big Tech Dreams of Putting Data Centers in Space 4 months ago:
Which is unfortunately completely understandable. Sometimes I think Americans (and a few other notable polities) forget who owns their damn country. Despite what the bits stored on the SSD’s of their Swiss banks might otherwise indicate, it’s not the small handful of billionaires. It’s not the politicians either. It’s the people actually paying their taxes rather than dodging them.
I firmly believe that when a significant proportion of 340 million individuals collectively decide something has to be done, then that thing will get done, one way or the other. Regrettably, the members of the American Aristocracy are really good at dividing and contouring the hoi polloi.

How the fuck do these dim bulbs ever get this rich in the first place?
- Comment on Big Tech Dreams of Putting Data Centers in Space 4 months ago:
Look, I’m all for rich leeches having less money, but I’d prefer it if we didn’t let them piss precious resources away on stupid shit when there’s real problems to be solved. How about just seizing some of their obscene wealth and build some solar farms, fund fusion research or build cheap housing for the homeless or something?
- Comment on Big Tech Dreams of Putting Data Centers in Space 4 months ago:
Gods, why? Vacuum is the ultimate thermal insulator, so getting rid of waste heat is troublesome, launching large amounts of hardware into orbit isn’t exactly cheap, electronics will need additional EM / particle shielding and maintenance when something inevitable breaks or wears out might be a bit harder than usual.
