  • This crowdstrike stuff seems an expensive subscription

    I saw a lot of photos of crashed ad screens.

    Why the hell are corps paying this much money for windows+cloudstrike for a glorified digital picture frame?? Wouldn't be 100x cheaper to do it with some embedded stuff instead of having a full desktop computer running a full desktop os????

  • The computer response should be treated as just an indication and in all cases a human needs to decide to override that

    Otherwise we’ll all become useless pieces of a simulation

    I went to the bank to ask a loan and then it got rejected because the computer said I didn’t met the parameters by just 40 euro. Ah ok, I told the clerk, just lower the amount that I’m asking or spread it over a longer period. No, because after the quote is done and I signed the authorization for the algorithm to perform credit score, it can’t do it again in 3 months. What?? Call a supervisor and let them override it, 40 euro is so minimal that it’s not that big issue. No, impossible. So that means each single employee in the bank is just an interface to the computer and can be fired at will?

  • I had a Nokia touchscreen smartphone (Nokia 5800) and it was awful

    The iPhone was launched 2 years before that, but I couldn’t afford it, assumed that Nokia did a comparable job. Boy how I was wrong!

  • They had a line of mobile arm based processors that were powering windows mobile devices but they sold that division to Marvell 6 months before the launch of the iPhone, in order to focus on x86

  • No, in this capitalist world what will happen is that your account number becomes an asset during bankruptcy and they would sell that to some credit recovery agent who would sue you for some bullshit amount of money
