Hey, this is the tech industry. That’s all we do!

All platforms must be decentralized and interoperable and fuck the algorithms.

Lightly customized KDE plasma, it truly is just the best de out there. However when I’m feeling a bit playful and not looking to do actual work or using my laptop without a mouse I do switch over to hyprland sometimes.

You dont understand, I simply have GOT to buy and play the new FIFA/FC/Madden/NBA2K its simply so much better than last year’s! No, thats not all I play, of course not. I also play, like… Uh… GTA 5… Yeah, what a story, am I right? Especially when that guy goes “oh shit here we go again”? What a moment. Also that one PlayStation game, uhh, well I forgot its name. Anyway, what’s your Valorant rank?

It is actually unusable. Like seriously unusable. I’m not even exaggerating.

We will be 80 and still looking at the charts going “It is the year of the Linux desktop yet?”

forget about just being outright wrong all the fucking time, you can ask this piece of shit a very simple yes/no question and it will change its answer constantly when you do so much as refresh the page. its actually baffling to me. duckduckgo has search ai, and somehow theirs works fine enough %90 of the time and won’t change its answer with each page refresh. DDG is doing search ai better than Google, the third biggest company in the world who may as well own the internet, AND YOU CAN JUST TURN THE DDG AI OFF. Big tech are so embarrassingly incompetent.

Just switch your search engine already.

Well I find this one extremely disappointing and very insulting. I read the first 3 panels and was actually getting excited and happy that I was about to read something insightful and hopeful and positive 😩

MOGAI

It says on the article that 404 Media recreated similiar images to the memes they saw to protect their sources, so there is a chance that the originals were pure gold.

You can sift through the various sources to get the un-paywalled page from the correct archive.

It also has the added benefit of watching you all the time!

Other than that EVs are pretty dope.

As someone with very little programming knowledge, the existence of all the “Learn how to program in our easy to use course and AI Assistance for $800 a month!” sites baffles me when w3schools is just… there. It has helped me massively, without a dime.

I also just realised that the about page of w3s has a ChatGPT section of “This is how ChatGPT describes W3Schools”, why???

I in fact did not read the article.

we have added a new preprogrammed conversational help bot to the company website that doesnt have enough logic trees to actually help anything

Why aren’t they just… Removing them?

Oh. Its probably because removing them is unnecessarily complicated so they need the company to come do it for them.

yeah and I mean I’ve got ice cream RIGHT on the conveyor belt and she KNOWS it

I don’t know much about this new captcha system, but I feel like the challenge wouldn’t really be in the scanning of the qr code itself but more so on making the device you’re scanning with seem legitimate. They could check usage patterns, what apps are installed, how many accounts are added and are they actively used, location and sensor data, are the hardware specifications really unusual, are they constantly trying to complete random captchas… Stuff like that to tell apart a real user’s device from a bot or sandbox. The QR Code is probably just a random ID for which captcha instance the user is trying to pass.

Also I just realised this but this is probably inconvenient as hell. Like I do NOT want to constantly be picking up my phone to scan QR codes when I’m trying to go around the Internet. What if my phone is on the other side of the house? I don’t want to get up and walk all the way over there! If this gets fully rolled out there may actually be a small dip on the amount of desktop users of websites because they just leave when they are hit wth this captcha instead of bothering to scan a code.

What the fuck? On so many levels.

No such thing.
