Sometimes we have to laugh at ourselves
  • The Left

    Oh, sweetheart...

  • 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.

  • 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.
  • 4chan is a perpetual blight on memetic culture

  • Incel Study
  • See it's 4chan's interpretation of the daily mail's interpretation of some study. Definitely the best way to find rock solid info, especially when it confirms my bias!

  • Opinions on immutable distros
  • I have corrected the one thing I know about immutable distros and am now furious with all others.

  • Opinions on immutable distros
  • I was mostly joking and I might have been mis-attributing the delay. From the time's I've had Fedora, including with KDE, if I update I have a pause during the next boot where I have to let the install finish before getting back to functional. My belief was that this was because the immutable system could not be running while updating, compared to non-immutable where a standard reboot works with a new kernel et al.

  • Opinions on immutable distros
  • This is why fedora had a little bar after rebooting when I updated right? What am I a Windows user?!? This is the extent of my understanding of immutable distros and I am furious with them.

  • AMD Wants To Know If You'd Like Ryzen AI Support On Linux
  • Do you know the person they were posting? I just assume anyone that does 5hr YouTube videos is unhinged, and having it linked from someone randomly on GitHub didn't help my view of their followers. Finding the Unabomber confirmed it enough for me lol.

  • Mastodon Rules: Characterizing Formal Rules on Popular Mastodon Instances (academic paper on moderation)
  • Interesting work, and an absolute fediverse way to look at a problem lol.

    Also love the rule they pointed out that instance had of, don't do things that would make us write new rules.

    I do wonder what insights can be drawn, from a skim it seems more about understanding how rules connect to each other, rather than build a broad rule base.

  • AMD Wants To Know If You'd Like Ryzen AI Support On Linux
  • Love the comment that is like second down with a link to some 5 hour live stream. I skipped to a random spot in it and the guy had the unabomber manifesto up, and said it "detailed the greatest problem in society today". What a fucking drop for a github comment, 10/10 no notes.

  • Minimalists
  • Fake. Sheets are too clean

  • I need help on EndevourOS, it's not recognizing the Windows boot and I don't understand how to solve it.
  • I might be wrong about this, but I believe if you installed it on two different drives you can't use GRUB to pick an OS. Instead you use your bios boot menu, and windows should be none the wiser.

  • Anon experiences VRChat
  • Facebook would get more attention for the metaverse if they were honest about what VR is really like.
