If they offered refunds this would still be terrible. They don't even offer refunds.

Bryan Johnson is hardly someone you should aspire to follow or listen. His entire adult life has been focused on the "live forever, stay young" culture, where he takes dozens if no…

Even if that is true, it doesn't change the reality that they can compete. Also, if we start going that route, American models wouldn't have any quality data to train on if they re…

This makes no sense when you zoom-out. None of these companies, be it Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI, Google, Meta, Microsoft, are profitable in the AI department, they're all bleeding mon…

You know, if Politicians, Law Enforcement and Military Personnel are included and affected by all these anti-privacy laws, I'm all for it (not really). Let their daily corruption c…

Support GOG, support no DRM.

And they're still pushing through with the idea of centralized IDs for the internet creating massive honeypots for hacker groups and AI companies all over the world. Meanwhile it's…

That's a deeply cynical way of seeing things. Grabbing a book to search for an answer is no different than being told the answer is on page 153 line 6 by someone else. It's about w…

If you want to see the end state of lack of oil, look no further than Cuba's current state of affairs. It's dire. Also for the naive people in the comments who say "invest in renew…

Totally agree, although an issue that's not talked about enough is that this isn't simply an energy crisis, but a logistics crisis for other products from the region (helium, ferti…

I'd much rather a third party ID that I can easily bypass because they're lazy and cost saving every step of the way, than a governmental ID which will be x100 harder to bypass and…

It's not, but more people know what a Nintendo is by name recognition.

I don't care if it's a human, a chatbot, or a dog if they fix my problem. I don't want to contact customer support in the first place, if I'm forced to, it's because something is v…

This comes from the same EU that's wholeheartedly embracing gambling across their member states, gambling mind you that children can just as easily jump into with their phones and …

Any chance this can be used to token-log people's accounts?

It also doesn't matter. It doesn't feel like it, but Win11 released almost 5 years ago (October 5, 2021) and there's already rumors of a Win12 in the near future. We're way past th…

You can block the entire internet and whitelist specific domains. There's multiple ways of doing this, from router parental controls, specific OS tools in iOS/Android, Windows, as …
