    Oh, sweetheart...

  • "In the end communism will triumph. I want to help bring that day." - W.E.B. DuBois
  • Yeah that is generally the conclusion folks come to when they see the flaws of the system they live in, while also knowing very little of communism.

  • Valve bans keyboard automation in Counter-Strike 2 update
  • Are there a lot of false positives, or was he trying to get banned to prove a point? Still false positives are definitely the worry. Maybe it watches for a set number of perfectly timed inputs that otherwise humans wouldn't do.

  • 'It is time for this war to end,' Harris tells Netanyahu; 'I will not be silent' on Palestinian suffering
  • Certainly seems like change in the attitude and maybe a change in actions, but listening to more of the speech it doesn't sound quite as radical as these two little snippets might suggest.

    Still, it's hard to be worse than Biden on Palestine, and this signals maybe her administration will give a least slightly less than full impunity to Netanyahu.

  • What popular product do you think is modern day snakeoil?
  • Seems like you just have an axe to grind about fat people. Protein is not the deciding factor in weight gain, calories are, so I don't know why you think a link to the wiki page about obesity would be convincing that protein powder is snake oil.

    Even when you coincide that it is relevant you dismiss with little justification. Also BMI is not a great metric for individuals, many that have a lot of muscle are measured as overweight because there is a lot more to bodies that height and mass.

    Can you justify why protein powder is snake oil in line with the other things in the thread? I will grant that most people have more than enough protein in a regular diet, but stats about obesity says literally nothing about if powder can help your workouts give the results you're hoping for.

  • The United States be like, "Who are you voting for?"
  • Listen Jack, the schools need riot police to ensure the safety of their lawns.

  • Anon becomes a case study
  • No because every gay person I've met is infinitely cooler than any 4channer.

  • Anon becomes a case study
  • It is interesting how the fakest of things can offer such insight into their creator. This nothing of a human is so desperate for validation about the wasted hours they have spent editing a poorly drawn frog for the uncaring half laugh of strangers, that they invented a scenario where someone could show any interest. So detached from the world they can't imagine anyone that would care enough to talk to them, so they project interest onto the therapist they pay to speak with.

  • Linus Torvalds Injects Tabs To Thwart Kconfig Parsers Not Correctly Handling Them
  • "newsworthy"??

    Who said news? The mailing list is my k-drama

  • YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps
  • Yeah FreeTube and NewPipe both work for me still. Might be a problem in the future, but I'm hoping I dodge by being in the weird nerd slice that isn't worth trying to force ads to.

  • AI Breakthrough Predicts and Prevents Plasma Disruptions in Fusion Reactors, Scientists Claims
  • It seems like you are building on criticisms of LLMs and applying them to something that very different. What poisoned data do you imagine this model having in the future?

    That is a criticism of LLMs because new generations are being trained on writing that could be the output of LLMs, which can degrade the model. What suggests to you that this fusion reactor will be using synthetic fusion reactor data to learn when to stop itself?

  • despite all my rage IT keeps me trapped like a rat in a cage.
  • I've found the selling point in not needing to open excel and click around to run the script. So often people need to do like the same three things and don't even know how to write Python, so giving them a script to drag your file onto is a step up from excel

  • despite all my rage IT keeps me trapped like a rat in a cage.
  • 4chan is a perpetual blight on memetic culture

  • CaPiTaLisM Is WoRKiNg
  • I'm destroyed. I cut and pasted funko-pops to google it and check spelling, now I am a fool on the internet 😔

  • CaPiTaLisM Is WoRKiNg
  • Yeah but how many different types of would I have if we didn't have capitalism??

  • Tor isn't as decentralised as we thought?
  • Very interesting, and thank you for the write up! Might be worth looking and preconfigured reseeds if I was to dabble in it, but generally I just don't have use for powerful anonymity tools currently. Always rad to hear about the tech though!

  • Tor isn't as decentralised as we thought?
  • So how does I2P work, I vaguely remember something about it like slowly building a network as you keep your own connection on, and that the architecture makes it much better for torrenting. Is it worth looking into and learning about or is it just slow bad internet?

  • Millennials hold 4.4% of all wealth, and Zuckerberg single-handedly has 2% of that wealth. There are now millennials in their 40s!
  • Completely agree, and it's obscene that this weird creep that made a stalking app for this college can now push industries with how much money he has in this amorphous value. But I just hope that people can be angry at these facts without being lost in a misunderstanding and think that half of all millennial wealth is one guy.

  • Millennials hold 4.4% of all wealth, and Zuckerberg single-handedly has 2% of that wealth. There are now millennials in their 40s!
  • This is also true, just makes folks look silly when they think that half of all millennial wealth is one guy.
