This is good messaging. I’m glad someone is making it explicit. I’ll bookmark this page and share it.

I might hate the AI companies and SpaceX (while enjoying AI-coding), but this is some bs.


There’s no “might” here. It’s why high-end TVs are cheap.


What’s wrong with 59% of Canadians?


“I love my country so much that I support a financial attack on it!”


Why wouldn’t you track your political enemies, said the leftist.


Sensible laws? That’s not the world I grew up in. What the hell is happening.
Punish users. That’s the only way they’ll learn.


About a year or two. Holy shit.


They will shove it down our throats, regardless.
I was conversing with a coworker, the other day. He told me that his wife used to work in SEO. She now focuses on AI marketing. I brought up companies that try to manipulate reddit to get mentions and he affirmed that’s what she does. What an evil cunt.
I played it like I’m joking that she’s evil. Fuck her.


What happens to all those Stargate RAM wafers, and excess datacenters?
The bigger question is what happens to the world-economy when the largest players bottom out and the companies betting on them are massively downgraded because of their huge investments in a fantasy about eternal growth. Hope everyone is setting aside extra cash; it’s gonna make 2008 look like a walk in the park.


If they just made up a bunch of accusations with paltry evidence to prove it, the scandal would make headlines. “iPhone maker found to be full of shit in court!” is clickworthy gold. I don’t think your stance is very strong. Every entity tries to spin things in their favor, but you make it sound like they’d bring an empty case and they very much would not. No one starts a lawsuit they don’t think they can win unless they’re someone with no credibility and endless money like Elon Musk (see lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI) or oil companies going after environmental lawyers.


Lemme help you spice things up: Wait until you’re passing by a guy who’s super clean cut and wearing business attire. As you go by, yell: “Get a haircut, hippy!” It’s funny every time.


I hate to tell you this, but the mullets were very real. It was a dark time and we’re all glad it’s in the past.


That is awesome.


Also, old records (from early in the CD era) had nowhere near the fidelity of modern records. I played a modern record for my father once and he was astounded how far they’ve come.


Digital fidelity (sample rate) grows more granular in higher frequencies because that’s easier for us to distinguish. (See the Fletcher-Munson Curve from Bell Labs: on a bell curve, we hear best at the frequency of a baby crying.) Think of stair steps that get closer and more numerous over time. That’s a representation of the resolution of the sound across frequencies from low to high. I may be explaining it poorly because I moved away from audio engineering toward a different career a long time ago.
Analog has all the information that’s missing in between the larger, wider steps. It’s not a placebo (didn’t say you called it that). It’s how digital audio works.
My instance isn’t allowing me to upload images for some reason. It had extended downtime the other day, so maybe that’s related. Anyway, here’s a link to a page with a chart that illustrates what I’m attempting to describe.


The industry went to shit after non-nerdy people found out there could be a lot of money in tech. Used to be full of other people like me and I really liked it. Now it’s full of people who are equally as enthused about it as they would be to become lawyers or doctors.

Just because their goal may not be explicitly pushing far right nationalism doesn’t mean it’s ok to ignore. They must be shunned. Their political messaging is hate and none of us should support or condone that.
