Social media posts mean absolutely nothing.

They probably have the servers ready to ingest, but no actual footage. Tesla owners aren’t having sex.

Alkaline water plus citric acid does not make a buffer solution. And even if it did, it has absolutely no impact on your body when drinking it regardless.

If I wanted an AI answer I could’ve used the shitty website myself, why do you think anybody would be interested in your poorly formatted AI output?

I don’t follow the AI bubble trend at all. But I have been seeing alot of videos all of a sudden, popping up in my recommended talking about it. Who knows.

A few banks started issuing warnings, and some of the “biggest upcoming launches” were extremely underwhelming, like Sora 2 and GPT 5. Not only that, but the companies going all in on replacing workers with AI are still not showing a clear return on investment, so this combination is making people more aware about the bubble.

So you can’t provide any examples? Got it.

Oh sure! People don’t crave the system, Mastodon is just bad!

Hey, what’s the non-corporate alternative to a service that took over the world with consumers then? I mean, if the system is not the problem and people just hate Mastodon in particular, I’m sure you’ll have plenty of examples to share.

Firefox lost me after they snuck ai bullshit into the browser

I hate AI and refuse to interact with it. Your statement is false. They didn’t sneak anything in - they openly added a feature that lets you connect an AI assistant of choice, or with a single click, disable it entirely.

Unless they start embedding the ads directly into the video stream, they’ll never be able to block adblocks - updating your extensions will work.

maybe it will prop up PeerTube for once…

It won’t. Look at Mastodon vs Bluesky and Threads. Mastodon already existed, already worked well, had more features and was federated. People still chose Bluesky, which is just Twitter 2.0 owned by the same corporate douchebags.

People CRAVE the system.

“1000x faster?” Learn to lie better

Analogue computers are indeed capable of doing a task 1000x faster than a regular computer. The difference is they do only that task, in a very specific way, and with one specific type of output. You can 3D print at home an “analogue computer” that can solve calculus equations, it can technically be faster than a CPU, but that’s the only thing it can do, it’s complex, and the output is a drawing on paper.

If you come up with a repeatable and precise set of mechanical movements that are analogous to the problem you want to solve, you can indeed come up with headlines like that.

They already are. So many user complaints on popular packages have nothing to do with a bug on the package, but are caused by the moronic permissions systems used by Flatpaks and similar.

It causes a bunch of frequent issues though. I strongly encourage users to select exFAT rather than NTFS for sharing a drive between Windows and Linux.

LLMs have amazing potential.

That’s not what studies from most universities, Anthropic, OpenAI, Apple and Samsung show.

Even if we didn’t have this data - and we do have it - are you truly impressed by a machine that can simulate what a Reddit user said 6 months ago? Really? Either you’re massively underselling the actual industrial revolution, or you’d be easily impressed by a child’s magic trick.

The only thing that feels like missing now is afterburner-like overlay in games.

There are a thousand applications that provide such an overlay, one is already built into Windows, do you really need yet another?

At this point it’s not in his best interest to finish it. It’s analogous to the situation Valve carved for themselves with Half Life 3.

Create enough build up, and then have to delay it for one reason or another and… you’re now trapped in a loop of more expectation, meaning the product must be better, meaning you’re not confident to release it as is, so now more expectation builds up, and the loop repeats until you know that no matter what you release the public won’t be satisfied enough, because reality can’t possibly match their expectations, and you’re no longer free to be creative because of the lingering expectations.

When that happens it’s literally your best move to not release the thing.

Whereas the United States with all its freedom

The United States is the country that leans on their supposed freedom the most in the world, but they are not the country with the actual highest freedom. And that’s even entertaining the rhetoric that absolute freedom is indeed desirable, which it most certainly is not.

Everyone manages something.

Most workers manage something and create value. Managers are only managing, remove them and nothing changes - usually things get more optimized, actually.

But plenty of people find it useful

Plenty of people don’t properly wash their anuses too. Plenty of people think our planet is flat.

Sure, but the scientists doing those kinds of workflows don’t have anywhere near the money to burn on GPUs

I’m working in a lab that is purchasing a cluster with a price tag you wouldn’t believe even if I could share it, which I can’t. We are publicly funded. Scientists are buying this hardware, for this price, because the speed up we get is tremendous.
