Remember Blizzard and diablo immortal, when they got booed during the reveal of the game, and then the devs were like, “does no one have phones?” Some of these CEOs and DEVS are so out of touch with what their customers want because they would rather huff their own farts all day, enjoying the smell of their own brand, instead of admit that they led product development to an area where there wasn’t market demand amongst their consumers.
Probably be less angry about grammar and spelling “nazis.” I’m guilty of those mistakes too, so I am not above being corrected myself.
Their, as in the disdain microsoft has for the user, not there, as in microsoft put the disdain in a box and it’s sitting across the room over there. However, your point is valid and stands.
Because they make so much more $ from selling your data. Microsoft would rather push these AI programs in an update, and bank on their users not noticing. The majority of users operate in a walled garden, they aren’t editing registry files or manually running commands, so they are less likely to notice the changes. It’s the power users that notice this shit, and sound the alarm.
I think it’s time for a class action lawsuit. But yes, you make a good point. Our state agency just got new PCs due to the ending of windows 10 support, and it sucks because I have no way to turn off the AI bullshit because I’m not an admin. As much as I enjoy now having a machine with bluetooth so I can use earbuds, I’d go back to my old work PC in a heartbeat.
And I don’t have the ability to turn it off because I’m not an admin, so I am stuck with this shit on the new work PC.
I still code. IF you keep practicing it isn’t hard. The article made some great points about people that focused on JAVA and ignored other things.
Reddit full on capitulates to facism. I got banned for posting the absent genitalia of a ken doll with the caption, “results of Elon’s botched penis procedure,” in the funny forum.
I learned to code CSS 25 years ago customizing pages in Neopets. It isn’t hard to learn at all. I was 20 at the time with no coding experience.
According to the trial, moments after the collision snapshot was uploaded to Tesla’s servers, the local copy on the car was marked for deletion. Then, “someone at Tesla probably took ‘affirmative action to delete’ the copy of the data on the company’s central database,” according to the Post.
Tesla only acknowledged that it had received the data once the police took the Tesla’s damaged infotainment system and autopilot control unit to a Tesla technician to diagnose, but at that time the local collision snapshot was considered unrecoverable.
That’s where the hacker, only identified as @greentheonly, his username on X, came in. Greentheonly told The Washington Post that, “for any reasonable person, it was obvious the data was there.”
During the trial, Tesla told the court that it hadn’t hidden the data, but lost it. The company’s lawyer told the Post that Tesla’s data handling practices were “clumsy” and that another search turned up the data, after acknowledging that @greentheonly had retrieved the snapshot locally from the car.
Fuck Elon and Fuck Tesla. May they both rest in piss.
Well, looks like PC I build in the future will feature AMD chips.
I remember when my step-son was a teenager. I didn’t care that he watched porn. I cared that he infected the family PC with viruses and malware trying to watch porn.
I sort of think that the only way to make visa/mastercard reverse course is to boycott the fuck out of them. Go back to using cash to make EVERY purchase. Purchase physical copies of games every time with cash. (I’ve been able to link games to my steam account purchased this way.) No longer buy skins and loot crates, and battle passes. Same goes with media. Go back to hard CDs for music/movies. Starve them of income any place you can, which would fuck with the business models of so many other companies that want your debit and cc on file for streaming services and subscriptions.
Watching anything that fElon fail sparks joy.
It’s a combination of vibe coding and absolutely no QA testing, because they fired a fuck ton of QA people 10 years ago. Microsoft is making it’s users beta test their fucking software through telemetry bug reporting. And we fucking pay for that privilege.
