The guy depends on Trumps goodwill, and Trump would punish him if he ditched the tax.

on Trump says the US is officially renaming AI to ‘super intelligence’ in c/technology@lemmy.world · 1d ago
Getting rid of the word Artificial huh. May make it easier to make people accept what’s coming I guess.
Super intelligence sounds positive doesnt it. Dystopia rebranded for the schmucks.
Hey, you don’t want Super Intelligence? Of course you do!

on Meta Now Banning Ads That Promote Feminism: "We have given social media unlimited power and every day we can see how dangerous this is." in c/technology@lemmy.world · 1d ago
I think its different in different countries too, so this topic will definently divide people. Depending on where your country is on the feminism scale, it may just have started fighting for equal rights, or it may have gone way too far in the female direction, and started attacking masculinity and pushing down men for doing ordinary masculine things like watching a woman or talking to a woman.
Women don’t stop wanting more control over men’s behavior once they have equal rights. It becomes about controlling men’s behavior so it suits the woman. Things like thinking guys are creeps for watching a woman (unless he is attractive, then its fine). The woman decides if he is attractive and therefore if he is a creep or not.

Nah. It’s more that feminism started as equal rights, which everyone agrees with. But now it’s a hostile movement that doesn’t respect men and masculinity at all. Anyone can see that but they think it’s OK. Who needs masculinity anymore right? :)

Well they do have the plan to make some AI that knows everything and makes decisions for humanity and builds new inventions at record pace.
They love their transhumanism. I’m so happy I’m 51 and I expect to be very old when shit really hits the fan. Still think the 1990s was peak humanity.

This is not nearly as important as you think it is. If you ask 300 million Americans who this guy is, you would have some random kids knowing about him from YouTube. And that’s it.
It just seems important because it’s in your fringe interest.

on The insane amount of requests my LG tv has sent since last Friday in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 12 Sep 2026
Yes but books require some energy remaining in the body after work and family. A tv is great for exhausted people after their daily slave job.
I read books on vacations simply because I have the energy and focus for it then. Rarely do it at home.

I agree and it was the same comments on the hacker news article about the release too. Most people dont like a sandbox with no progression system, and specially when you can feel that the world is just different colors and different animal skins but otherwise the same.
Beautiful game but feels boring, and I guess it’s the lack of progression system and that everything feels like the same.
I definently need some constant goals set by the game to feel happy.

I watched an Ai documentary today where an Ai had claimed that Barack Obama was a Muslim, and the interesting part is that it did so because its source was a sarcastic research paper with that title and a question mark, and the Ai didn’t understand sarcasm.
So you never know…

Yeah I understand. It really is Nvidia holding Linux back and still the usage is growing every year, so not bad. It would be nice if the most popular graphics card maker could make drivers that work well with Linux but even people who worked on the drivers are admitting they are hell to work with.

This feels like a 10 year old comment almost. Hardware issues with Linux must be super rare now except for Nvidia, which is because Nvidia has closed drivers and doesn’t care about Linux.

Its better to not have the threats. Specially since these kind of threats are for profit and it’s their business model.

I wait for two years. As long as the existing memory modules doesn’t break, Linux will continue to be happy with existing amount.

It’s a good post, I agree with it. And I guess The Pale is a good description of what we are noticing.
I got to experience the internet before it became like this, so at least I have memories of greatness. But the desire for great profits ruins everything. Not only the internet but the world.
Greed for excessive amounts of money is the root of evil, the bible got that right. But humans are not aware enough to see a future where greed is not the driving force of society.

on Never seen it this bad in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev · 18 Aug 2026
Well, i checked. From the top 1000 websites in the world, cloudflare is fronting 55% of them.
Same with top 10000 websites, 55%.
Top 100000 websites, 52%.
All measured websites, 29%.
I think this is telling a different story than small sites using free cloudflare services. The 20% that cloudflare says is most similar to “all measured websites” where tons of small ones are included.
-

What matters is really how many of the most popular web sites are behind it. The large massive ones with lots of traffic are likely to use it.

A great idea for the entire world to use github for all their code and cloudflare for all their web sites. Some great thinking right there.

Yeah good points. I dont know where it gets its raw data but it’s capable of modifying and thinking about ingredients, so I think its behavior is superior to just recepie sites.

It’s generating recepies. So you can say you want certain ingredients and you don’t like others, ask it to make a list of stuff you could try, and you will get that. Also, you can ask it during cooking exactly how to cut the pieces for best result, or if you want something more spicy and so on. It’s much better than a static recepie. This is more like being able to talk about a dish and adjust it according to your taste, replace certain ingredients if you like, and so on.
Im using it daily and prefer it very much to browsing recepie sites.

It’s not mixing spam. It comes up with great recepies that are perfectly seasoned and taste great. Sounds like you never tried it and you are projecting your dislike for AI on something you don’t know.
I get that a lot of people on Lemmy don’t like Ai but come on, we shouldn’t lie about stuff it actually does well. I think it has a few very good usecases and this is one. Free recepies that work well.

I think all Ai content on the web or on YouTube is trash and has no value. But I use chat gpt daily to ask questions and get answers quickly. That part is good. The rest is awful.
I started asking it for recepies in the last month or so, and it’s been very useful for giving new recepies and making it easier to try new dishes. Before this I used to rotate the same 20 recepies all the time. Got very boring.
