Yeah, that’s probably a better phrasing.

People weren’t using them ambiguously, drive manufactures picked a non-standard unit to lie with on their boxes, and then tricked courts into going along with their shit because it was the old case of money vs truth.

I’ll assume you’re being intentionally obtuse because no one could actually be that dumb.

“Yeah, the load times are shit, but they aren’t shit enough to tell some intern to spend two months figuring out what’s going on.”

“What about when some nerd fixes it in a week and embarrasses us when he shows how it was caused by the addition of the shop?”

“We’ll fucking sue, that’s what.”

“What if we just paid him the bug bounty instead?”

“Fine, no need to Streisand this time, I guess.”

Rockstar being actual rockstars in their response :D

Unfortunately, I am not from the EU region, neither do I live in one

So, the GDPR doesn’t apply to you. So, you’re probably SOL?

Oh my god don’t get me started, the last time I tried that, it took me over two fucking hours to get the Microsoft account to recognize that I owned Minecraft. Apparently I bought the game so long ago that it failed to unify my accounts correctly so the separate “enter your password” screen just failed to load? I had to reset my account and open an entire new outlook.com email address just to link my purchase to the account I already have.

Fuck those losers who succeeded only in making the game worse to encourage platform lock in so they can replace Java with Bedrock.

The good old, “If it’s not your source, it’s not your computer.”

Yes, but this is American Cartels. We can have them, too, and ours are better! 😡

Used to be, “the tragedy of the commons” didn’t quite so literally mean an attack on the common resources.

That’s not very reassuring, we’re still only one computer bug away from that situation.

Presumably she wasn’t identified as a violent criminal because the facial recognition system didn’t associate her duplicate with that particular crime. The system would be capable of associating any set of crimes with a face. It’s not like you get a whole new face for each different possible crime. So, we’re still one computer bug away from seeing that outcome.

It’s an extremely compelling product story full of market segmentation advertisers dream of!

H100 isn’t $40, it’s $40,000. You’re making the Bloomberg Mistake: it costs $4,000,000,000 - four billion.

I can’t wait to see what clownshoes nonsense way he absolutely fucks this one up, but that’ll take a lot of liquidity he probably doesn’t have access to unless he gets the $45bn Tesla payout.

How in the fuck did you find that, and where is the rest of the text on the page?

That, finally, explains the pink sauce lady!

Back in my day, we called that “hard-mode plagiarism.” They can’t punish you if they can’t find a specific plagiarized source!

Which one?!

They were so close on the acronym: “Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers” should be “Detecting Ominous Location Trackers” (DOLT). (“Obnoxious” also works but unfairly downplays the stalking/domestic-violence angle.)

Protec, not attak.

Now, they could still rename it FireWolfHound, which would be a rebranding I would be on board with.

I wish I had a decent explanation. But instead, I have Windows 11’s shiny new Taskbar configuration menu that politely warns me that showing seconds on the clock takes more power. Right under the “Show Copilot” button.

These fucks are fucked.

Oh cool, somebody signed up, they have more supporters today.
