  • Honestly, the only shocking part is that people are shocked. It's not like Elon wasn't quite open about the piece of shit he is. I'll never understand why people choose to cherry pick the good stuff people in power say. I mean you don't even have to catch him at a bad time, the guy is a walking wreck, the only success he has is when he hops on a successful ship before he fucking sinks it. So in a way I'm glad he joined Trump, hopefully he can work his magic and bring his shit down too.

  • Lol, such weak minded pussies, let me explain. For reference, that number is very roughly half of all atoms on earth. If you had that kind of money in cash, it would be larger than earth, it would be heavier than the sun and fucking obliterate our solar system. It's absolute lunacy, so they could have gone further and got more out of it. Like asking for a googol dollars (a 1 with a hundred zeros), not only is it actually funny (a play on Google's name), but that would finally be enough to nuke the entire observable universe. But no, turns out fascists aren't creative and their statements are just the result of rabies.

  • Omfg I get it now... "All life is sacred" as in all life must feel the fearful embrace of God.

    I was gonna put a "/s" at the end, but I'm honestly not too sure anymore... Seems like that's exactly what they want. Like what's the point if not the cruelty?

  • Honestly don't feel like a slight reduction on a month long battery life is of much concern. As for waste, I'd say being able to replace a dead battery should reduce waste if anything, also nobody said it must be a AA (on a side note, you seem to imply the use of non-rechargeable AA, which holy shit, if they're still a thing, must be purged, sweet jesus...who's dumb enough to waste money on em???). Personally, I'd much prefer having a second battery charging separately somewhere, ready to swap, as opposed to being forced to stop using my computer. Or like the Nintendo Switch I mentioned before, have some spot I can put it away for charing, that way the mouse is also cleaned up and not fucking dangling and wobbling around freely on the table.

  • I don't understand what was wrong with the original version that just took 2 AA batteries. Reaching for the AA charger and swapping cells not awkward enough or something?

    Smart and elegant design would be hiding a battery charger in the iMac it self (maybe even use something smaller than AA), not expect you to flip and plug in your mouse every time ya leave it. The Nintendo Switch, while a completely different form factor, is a great example of an elegant (you could even say "wireless") charging solution.

    I'm getting really sick of the Apple esthetic of sticking out wires, be it the mouse or the dozen dongles for every portable device they now make. Uh! Can't forget the world's only pen that needs charging, for seemingly no reason.

  • "Debatable" is a heavy stretch for someone with a 0% track record when it comes to promised tech while repeating "we can do it NOW and it will be available NEXT YEAR!" for a literal decade. Robo taxies were supposed to be EVERYWHERE 4 years ago. Same with SpaceX, we were supposed to be sending the first people to mars this year, yet all Elon has managed was burn 3 bilion tax payer dollars for literal fireworks, as not a single "starship" managed to reach high orbit. Even the cybertruck is a cheap knockoff of what was promised. Not to mention the countless people that have died because he's allowed to beta test his death machines in public. Can't forget his starlink shenanigans in Ukraine, fucking warlord wannabe... Elon is the greatest scam artist in modern history, and it's absolutely disgraceful that he isn't behind bars, let alone valued at all.

  • Right, my daily reminder that the US doesn't belive in human rights. Article 23 of the UN human rights declaration for anyone curious. This is also a fun, yet basic resource: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/countries-with-independent-national-human-rights-institution?time=latest

    It's sad that the west still glorifies this fucking homunculus that not only doesn't try to adhere to any agreed principals and values, but actively goes against them. The republicans are against half the things written in there, while the dems "compromise" so hard that "barely making it" is the ultimate unachievable goal in the distance to aim towards. Fucking pathetic.

  • I knew and even tried it before, but I completely forgot it existed because it sucked so much. Nobody can see you moving your hands and tilting your head, which kills all the fun of a VR multi-player game IMO. It's just a glorified controller binding for VR headsets. Considering all the other wacky things they added, I don't see why they didn't add actual VR support.

  • Everyone shits on Star Fox: Assault for shit controls. Which is half true at best, as in it makes you chose between 3 options (option C being the correct modern one) and the one the cursor starts on (A) is indeed shit. I mean it's remotely annoying once, but like come on, it's not even a hidden setting, it MAKES YOU CHOOSE!

  • I gave C++ and D as an example. A language that for all intents and purposes is irrelevant despite being exactly what everyone wanted, something like Java/C#, but with no compromise and direct bindings to C/C++. And why I'm more apologetic to the idea of something more drastically different like Rust as opposed to another touched up clone of C.

  • French is even more special.

    Tho like I said before, it's not perfectly accurate. In Czech 90 + 2 is the official way, but many people around Prague and closer to Germany do in fact occasionally say 2 + 90.

  • There's been plenty of interop options between C++ and just about anything for decades. If languages like D, that made it piss easy, weren't gonna change people's minds, nothing can. Ditching C++ is the only way forward.

  • I especially hate what we the Czechs do. We mostly read numbers the same (21 = twenty one), but then once every blue moon some dimwit says 21 like "one and twenty" like he's fucking German or something. German is bad enough, but why do we have to mix it???

  • Jesus christ, it's a second time in the past 5 minutes that I see another post about some "news" that's just "remember the bad guy? Yea, he's still at it, just did the same thing as last time again, mmhm, it's the news where new things happen.". Not saying it's bad to reported this, but I'm getting really fucking sick of shit not changing. We knew that Elon loved playing war games basically since the beginning, doing shit like disabling starlink in the middle of missions. There's no rule of law in the US, MAGA is proof of that.
