I don't pay subs for things like photoshop. It doesn't matter if I can "afford" it. It could be one cent per year and still I just don't want stuff that's set up that way.

What am I even supposed to think "gallons of slop" means? Funny that this is both fake and meaningless. OP if you're reading this, this garbage was the worst possible way you could…

Samsung phones are the most bloated pieces of shit I have ever seen. Mine came with an app just to view the msn.com web site and it couldn't be uninstalled. You have google and sam…

Unless you live in a place where your phone needs to be a regional variant and there are no custom roms that support it.

Yes registering fake views is fraud against ad networks. Ad networks love it though because they need those fake clicks to defraud advertisers in turn. Paying to have ads viewed by…

It's been really sad to see reddit go like this because it was pretty much the last bastion of the human internet. I hated reddit back in the day but later got into it for that rea…

This is such an indictment of modern technology. No offense is meant to you for doing what works for you, but it is buck wild that this is the "fix" they've come up with. As somebo…

I don't see the point of publishing any AI generated content. If I want AIs opinion on something I can ask it. If I want an AI image I can generate it. I've never found it helpful …

My brain first started doing this with online ads as well. The habit has adapted and evolved very strongly with the amount of exercise it gets from UIs, textbooks, signage, and bas…

For me it just doesn't work at all. I don't know why but every windows instance I've used since Win7 has not been able to find files even with the exact filename supplied. I don't …

I think that due to how sophisticated anti-bot measures have gotten, bots now go through a "life cycle." An engagement bot spends the first phase of it's life building up an innoce…

I stopped using apps like this because they were always getting broken by youtube. Obviously it's intentional sabotage but still. It felt like I had to update those apps every time…

Maybe we should learn to pass reverse-turing tests and pretend to be LLMs so we can use this stuff lol.

Maybe if Google hears this they will finally lift a finger towards removing garbage from search results. Hey Google, Pinterest results are probably messing with AI crawlers pretty …

A lot of these HR departments are in serious need of an investigation. If they've really determined for themselves that nobody is good enough for this job I guarantee there is some…

Where I come from this was a widely held belief by the end of the 2000's: If you raise a child in an overly sterile environment and/or feed them a very limited diet, they are much …

If we had a grid of cells where each cell was a number from 0-8, representing the number of neighbours, would that be equivalent to what these "links" are? I'm still finding it har…

Nobody on earth has ever taken this idea too far? Even if I hadn't seen it myself this would be hard to believe. I've seen people go for the throat just because of opinions on Sail…

There's a phenomenon of fraudulent "security researchers" which has sprung out of the AI world. I became aware of it when someone on discord posted a video covering an "ACE exploit…

I discovered Gemini years ago and was completely enchanted by the whole concept. There are two main buzz kills though. 1. The TLS requirement really undercuts the idea of using Gem…

The incredible technology you're describing was possible on the Nintendo DS without wires and no need for a LAN either. It's a problem that's been solved in hundreds of different w…

I wonder what method they've employed to make SD cards even more useless this time around.

Recipe sites always have a print button which gives you just the recipe. If I end up on one of those sites I instantly hit Ctrl+F "print" to get it.
