  • "Why won't our human assets appreciate being exploited? Creating a worldwide, distributed surveillance network is hard work!"

  • Copilot is going to want 50 gigs on YOUR computer's hard drive to store snapshots. MS also wants you to buy dedicated AI hardware to run a few of their apps. They're going to steal your computer's storage and processing resources to create a worldwide AI and surveillance network.

    No thanks. I finally switched to Linux. Microsoft can become Skynet without my help.

  • The Russian enterprise should not seek customer support from the manufacturer directly: “You will simply compromise the legitimacy of our legal entity, which presents itself as an organization not connected to the Russian Federation in any way.”

    Lol. The "legal entity" is literally telling you, "don't compromise our 'legitimacy' in this illegal as f*ck transaction."

  • There are a lot of books that are out of print, especially reference books. And if you look for them on Amazon or eBay, they've been snapped up by scalpers who are reselling them for obscene profit.

    Either make the books available for sale or quit complaining about "copyright infringement." But whatever you do, quit hoarding knowledge like a dragon sitting on a pile of gold.

  • Musk is an apartheid-loving fascist. Him saying mean things is the least of his problems.

  • Or . . . you load that old save game and think, "oh yeah. NOW I remember why I stopped playing this."

  • The only good news is that if they try to storm the Capitol again, they're not going to have Trump and his "acting" Secretary of Defense giving them cover this time.

    Those troops are going to be loaded for bear.

  • I'm not interested in anything that's "Co-Pilot enabled."

  • And you could afford a rack of ribs big enough to tip over your car.

  • Isn't it amazing how often the Miracle Whip people end up in the hospital emergency room whenever they have a serious medical problem.

    Not being able to breath has a way of reorganizing your beliefs in a big damn hurry.

  • Someone will find a way to take a looped video of them watching their computer intently and feed it through their webcam. The ad battle will never end.

  • 5.1 Toggle the customer's opt-out setting back to opt-in every time there's a Windows update.

    5.2 Remove the opt-out setting completely.

  • If "your call is important to them" they would hire enough people to answer the phone.

  • The whole point of the Turing test, is that you should be unable to tell if you're interacting with a human or a machine. Not 54% of the time. Not 60% of the time. 100% of the time. Consistently.

    They're changing the conditions of the Turing test to promote an AI model that would get an "F" on any school test.

  • Each conversation lasted a total of five minutes. According to the paper, which was published in May, the participants judged GPT-4 to be human a shocking 54 percent of the time. Because of this, the researchers claim that the large language model has indeed passed the Turing test.

    That's no better than flipping a coin and we have no idea what the questions were. This is clickbait.

  • Deus Ex Duke Nukem 3d Quake

    I would also recommend Windows 98se, since it was the last (popular) operating system that directly supports DOS.

  • Yup. What YouTube doesn't understand is that we've got ** other stuff to do.** I've got books to read, games to play, music to listen to. None of which requires YouTube.

  • Tesla "shareholders" clearly don't have the interests of their company in mind if they're approving a 56 billion dollar compensation package for their "CEO."
