Just because this may NOT have been caused by AI doesn’t mean that AI in 99% of places isn’t absolute horse shit

As far as they can, that is

That rocket launch that obliterated a launchpad was Elmo’s meddling, for example

As long as it’s properly tagged so we can avoid the hell out of it

We value your privacy, that’s why we’ll sell your data to anyone that is willing to pay us money. We will sell it to literally a thousand different companies which will mix and match and resell you data to thousands more

It so so so so extremely angers me that companies ALWAYS FUCKING LIE.

We value your privacy

FUCK YOU YOU DO NOT

We’re pissing u on your back and we tell you that you’re getting a refreshing shower, please thank us for this insult!

Just be fucking honest that you don’t give a shit, money is your only bottom line, and you would rape and murder my mother if you even thought it would make you money. Fuck all of you

I want a law that says that companies cannot behave like this. You cannot say “your call is important to us” every 2 minutes while I’ve been waiting on the phone for three hours to be able to return your piece of shit product that arrived broken, but you were too cheap to invest in basic customer support.

I want marketing and advertising outlawed. Completely. It’s allowed for companies to lay out their products, but you’re not. allowed. to. lie. No “we’re the best!” Fuck you, you’re the absolute worst. A company like Comcast should be forbidden from claiming they’re good at anything as they suck at everything and only manage to continue to exist because of fucking lying through their teeth with their marketing.

these sort of shit popups is just the next logical step that starts literally with the first words being an absolute lie

Fuck this shit

I’m sure it’s all accidental and coincidental that open source project that rival Google just weirdly got flagged as being dangerous. Google also doesn’t know how this happened, it just did! Magic!

I worked at a datacenter that sold clients 99.99% uptime.

Fun times with a maximum of about one hour of downtime per year for hundreds of servers

Was it proven that AI wa the cause?

In not saying it wasn’t, just that if it really was, I’d like a source for that claim

LOL

Elmo Musk literally is not an engineer or even understands basic engineering. All the real world engineering done at his company is done by actual engineers

What is his part in all those processes at jos companies, you ask?

Lying.

Literally lying. Its the only talent that Mr. Elmo has. Its the one thing he constantly does, at levels comparable to Trump.

Most claims he makes about any of his companies products are just plain lies. Tesla full self driving? Not even close, and by now i wonder if they’re actually capable of getting a Tesla off a parking lot without crashing it, let alone do a full cross country.

Same for SpaceX, where we definitely will go to Mars!never mind that reaching low earth orbit is about 1% of that task and he still can’t do that without blowing up his starshits. Hey, at least they blew up a banana over the Indian ocean.

Wanna know what Elmo’s contributions are?

Cyber truck.

Launching the car that was supposed to be for the founder of Tesla into low earth orbit just to he an asshole

The “idea” to use intercontinental ballistic rockets to transport people to the other side of the world “in 30 minutes”. This one I really really really do want him to try because tickets are CEO only expensive and nothing would make me laugh more than a bunch of stealing assholes all paying a million or so to just blow up on the launchpad.

Talking about launchpads, remember that Florida launch with a starship with a boat load of engines that also failed was a complete success because “it left the launchpad” and anything beyond that was extras? Yeah, that launchpad was absolutely obliterated, cars parked various kilometers away got pelted by concrete debris, an ecological area got polluted, and the launchpad was left in rubble because Elmo decided that flame diverters, you know, those things used since like the sixties of the previous century really weren’t necessary.

That is of course keeping in mind that he US tax payer paid 3 billion to take the US to the moon and well, that too is about at 1-2% mission completed, there is nothing remotely ready.

Do I even have to mention Hyperloop? “Its just another air hockey table, its not that hard!”

Meanwhile he keeps asking Tesla for a trillion dollars as well, even though he just got a gold package from Tesla that was light the highest payout in human history, even though Tesla makes a fraction of the cars that large brands make, ans even though he sent the extremely overvalued company (overvalued thanks to his constant lying about aaaalll the great things that are right there ready, just around the corner if you only pay me more money!!) right of a cliff with his Nazi antics combined with the laughable Nazirustbucket he designed…

This is the guy asking for just a trillion dollar bro, I will make this work, bro! TRUST ME!

Only problem there for me was that it went off the rails for me, i got some 100TB of storage and I’ve been collecting old movies and shows that can’t be found anywhere on Netflix type services. II spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours by now

Thank you. I imagine it’s not easy for them doing that

The fact that you think 5% of the world population is the same as 5% of all programmers shows that you are rather clueless

It’s interesting to see how people would compare Israel’s guilt to that of, say, Turkey. The latter put a genocide on 1,5 million Armenians to carve out their territory.

And if you have paid attention, there are quite few voices there as well to officially recognize it as a genocide. It’s also rather important to add the bit where this happened before the word genocide existed. Lastly, if we go back far enough in history we’ll find dozens of examples that would have been genocides but again, we didn’t really have that concept setup until after WWII. From the Wikipedia article on genocide

The 1946 judgement against Arthur Greiser issued by a Polish court was the first legal verdict that mentioned the term, using Lemkin’s original definition.

Also I made the argument that Israel perhaps shouldn’t exist because it has been an agressor from pretty much day one and it has continued this to the point where there is a clear pattern of aggression. Though the Turks, to continue your example, suppress the Kurds, I haven’t seen turkey attack nearly all of its neighbors, and they have definitely not committed genocide in the past 50 years

Israel, on the other side, has been in countless wars with countless countries. It executed (understandable but still) extrajudicial executions, it has subjugated Palestinians to the worst atrocities seen since WWII for over 5 decades now. Hell, they’ve been funding terrorists (Hamas) just so they could continue murdering innocent Palestinian with a flimsy excuse. They regularly let “settlers” (nice euphemism there) steal Palestinian houses and land, and if Palestinians resisted even the slightest bit, they’d be murdered without repercussions. For decades.

I’d argue that there is a clear structural pattern of aggression and violence from this state, hence the question: should this state continue to exist? Because if it does so in its current form, I guarantee you that the middle east will never find peace.

Then, Palestinians aren’t trying to create a state within Israel. They had their lands, were driven off of it, Hardee’s in small areas which are the places they’d like to have their independent state with Israel being a neighbor.

And yeah, the way that the middle east was carved up was asking for trouble, because of course it was. That, however, doesn’t excuse anything that Israel is doing today nor anything of what it has been doing for decades.

All the questions you have can be answered there. I haven’t used it for over 5 years, so honestly I don’t recall what it can ans can’t do, but I do remember that you could have a hidden volume somewhere

Not sure about that, but this is basically a few clever tricks where you have two file systems in one volume. Obviously if the volume is, say, 10 gigs, you can only store 10 gigs in total on those filesystems, as they share the space.

You also, likely, wouldn’t want to fill up the drive too much

I don’t know what happened to it, I recall that, years ago, they found various weaknesses in the system but instead of fixing it, it seemed to be abandoned. I’ll start looking around if he there are updated open source versions

Great way to rant about technicalities and entirely miss the point that pretty much all islamic countries typically are extremely hostile to LGBT, and Iran in particular, lethal.

But oh noes, that particular method of execution actually does not happen in Iran! WHO FUCKING CARES? That is not the point.

You probably are too young to remember the news articles of crane companies having to find out that their products are used for public executions. Being gay or an activist in Iran is simply a very bad idea

They’re not wrong , very much not.

They also know how to mistreat activists.

Let’s not act as if Iran is so supportive of human rights as they happily string up activists on cranes to then slowly hang them tontortur them to death

Gay? String em up or throw them from a high building

Female and your hair is a little too visible? Don’t worry, morality police will be here soon to torture you to death

Fuck the Iranian and Israeli dictator governments

It would be very interesting to see how Jews would respond to the same questions about Nazis

Same question from you.

See, sometimes there is this thing called “both sides can be wrong” but in this case the power imbalance combined with 5 decades of Israel terrorizing Palestinians makes it that you can just safely say that Israel is the guilty party here, period, end of discussion

This issue isn’t new. 4 decades ago as a child I read about abuses from Israel against Palestinians. 4 decades ago I remember someone making national headlines because she dated to hang a Palestine flag from her house. She was immediately labelled an anti-Semite, whereas all she wanted was some basic support for suffering Palestinians.

Don’t even start about Hamas. Hamas is at least in part funded by Israel to be a terrorist group so that Netanyahu had an excuse to continue to terrorize Palestinians.

You can’t take all that and then say “weeeeellll, but Palestinians have done bad things too, you know!”

I’m sure they did, I’m sure they have. I’m also sure it’s irrelevant as it’s literally pennies to the dollars that Israel is doing and has been doing since it’s founding

I’m at the point where I wonder if the Israeli as a state should continue to exist. It’s toxic, it’s at the source of almost every conflict in the middle east since WWII. It continuously attacks everyone around them. It sends in tanks and military to kill children who dared to throw stones. Then you keep seeing these polls where the majority of Jews in Israel have, shall we say euphemistically, rather dark opinions. I keep seeing videos of entire neighborhoods rallying being extremely racist against anyone who is not Jewish. I keep seeing videos of these settlers invaders who just steal Palestinian homes and lands. You see targetted campaigns against anyone world wide who even dares to speak up against this toxic behavior. This shit has been going on like this for decades now.

It really really makes me wonder if that state there is such a good idea in the first place.

And I’m sure I’ll be labeled anti semite for expressing these opinions but that word has lost all its meaning. It used to be something really bad because in WWII Jews were massacred. But what are we supposed to do, say, or think when now, today, 80 something years later, it’s Israel doing the massacring?

Questions like yours are so extremely disingenuous…

I want a game that upon release is 70% finished

But I also even more want what you just said
