Who asked for this? Did y’all ask for this? I don’t remember asking for this.

Looks around room in confusion

The people with most of the guns are the ones who want this shit. The left in this country disarmed itself and shot itself in the foot, pardon the pun.

It’s full of “communists” that blindly excuse every damn thing that states like China and Russia do just because they dress themselves in red, or used to, and oppose everything western in an attempt to be “anti-imperialist”, ignoring what Russia is doing to Ukraine at this very moment. Hypocrites and dogmatic ideologues who can’t see nuance in anything.

Actually, my distaste for Big Tech is nothing new. It’s been building for decades.

First, little stuff like the inkjet printer that you invited into your house that claims to need, “Just a little more cyan, bro. I’ll print your black and white page after I get my cyan. Come on, bro.”

That’s because it needs to print the tracking dots on every page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_tracking_dots

Humans: “Hehehehe critical mass go boom!”

Another big part is learning how to set it up in a way that it’s functional and productive the first time and then STOP FUCKING WITH IT.

It’s because you didn’t spend a significant portion of your life learning how to create things from, for lack of a better term, your soul, and then had a machine suddenly rip it all away from you. There are good things and bad things about gen-AI.

Who has time these days to read stuff and research it before spamming that “buy” button? 😉

How do you keep birds from landing on it and shitting up the lens and blocking the laser?

It’s the law of outdoor infrastructure. If it’s outside, and it’s high up, it will get shat upon.

But video is so damn annoying. If you wanna copy-paste something from the video, you’re fucked unless you pause and type each character by hand. I don’t get it.

But then again I’m not a zoomer.

Cursor AI’s abrupt refusal represents an ironic twist in the rise of “vibe coding”—a term coined by Andrej Karpathy that describes when developers use AI tools to generate code based on natural language descriptions without fully understanding how it works.

Yeah, I’m gonna have to agree with the AI here. Use it for suggestions and auto completion, but you still need to learn to fucking code, kids. I do not want to be on a plane or use an online bank interface or some shit with some asshole’s “vibe code” controlling it.

have lost GPUs before, but not yet to mining.

I have. Power rails on GPU shorted due to failed MOSFET, blew the PSU as well as the card. The mini-explosion woke the whole family at 2am. I was also running it just under what was considered the high end of tolerable for the card, with a huge box fan attached to the side of the open case.

And if it survives until then will have a couple months of gaming out of it before a dried out capacitor or overstressed MOSFET blows. Ask me how I know.

Maybe there is a way for the human body to practice on an inert version? That would be cool.
