industry: makes local officials sign NDAs and will not disclose its water usage at all

person: "haha I bet it's lower than we think!"

but also, if you're some industry person and you take the industry at its word regarding usage statistics despite them charging more for non-AI plans, punishing people who disable it, making opt out impossible or difficult, threatening to fire employees who don't use it, writing biased surveys and cherry picking results, and ignoring articles that talk about the many, many companies that don't buy into AI after a trial period

then I question your analytical abilities and/or judgement in this regard.

so anyway since disabling the gemini crap, my inbox no longer has folders and it means every single email, of which I apparently receive many, now lights up my phone with a notification every 5 to 10 minutes

And the "but millions of people are using it!" statement becomes even more ridiculous in light of fact that Google literally punishes people who don't. Because that's what this is: a punishment. My inbox was already annoying; now I'm just half tempted to abandon reading it entirely.

This isn't how you're supposed to run a society. This isn't how you're supposed to move forward in time. Stop giving us soylent piss and telling us it's better than people, actually. This is a ridiculous joke: you're restarting nuclear plants not because carbon is killing us (it is!) but because in addition to the carbon you're STILL going to burn you want the ability to generate MORE racist propaganda, spill MORE oil into the well of human knowledge, remove MORE people from society

fuuuuuuck off NVIDIA
fuck off microsoft
fuck off elon musk
shut the fuck up, larry ellison

the next corporate handy giver talking about "reducing harm" or how "sometimes it's faster than me writing out def fuckYou() boilerplate" that I run into should probably just block me right now because I am done with all this "if we just ignore that they're murdering all of us"

"You know, Shinra made life a lot easier for everyone"
"Sure, the Nazis killed everyone, but the fashion"

I fucking hate what you're doing.

"wow she's really angry about this" yeah, I have strong feelings when someone purposefully sets libraries, the planet, and people on fire. wild! wild that I'm angry about how long this is going.

fuck your generative AI. Fuck all these companies. I am much more calm sounding than I am feeling. Capitalism is going to kill us all, and the insulting thing is, they pretend we like the piss they're telling us is water.

there is NO GODDAMN CHEESE in this house right now and I need these people to fuck off and become sewer sludge already

I hope your children take new names to remove the stench you've given it. I hope you're reviled for as long as history exists. I'd spit on the ground if you walked by.

"we think we can keep this glad handing society-ruining-earth-desiccating-poverty-machine going for another three months" is all that means and I wish you a very "I hope you step on a lego, flail, and that your gonads land on the corner of a piece of furniture right before you accidentally punch yourself in said reproductive bits"

really struggling to contain some rather strong feelings at the headlines of "quieting bubble talk"

you asshole fuckstains. you goddamn bog huffers. you krebs cycle-less parasites.

Privilege is when you can wave away the very real, very physical, very permanent harms these tech nazis are doing because you find that your ability to shit out boilerplate code for them has maybe, according to some very unscientific perception squinting, maybe given you a speed up sometimes

Fuck

you

these fuckshits

death to NVIDIA

I wish I could yell in the face of every dipshit wall street fuck that keeps pumping this up the way their fucking clueless destruction screams in mine all the time.

They're jerking themselves off with their left hand and pretending like its someone else. I hate all this.

@dalias@hachyderm.io You're basically fucked if the spin cycle on the washer didn't run properly, because there is no way in hell any amount of "heated dry" on these things is going to properly dry them at that point.

Fuck, I wonder if an IOT thermometer would survive a dry cycle? Because if that worked I'd be real curious to see what the internal measurement of that machine was when drying...

if I have to dry it twice and things still aren't dry, then it isn't hyper efficient and I hope you die

Hey dryer manufacturers: you know, if your "hyper-efficient" dryer doesn't actually dry the clothes... then the efficiency is kind of 0, isn't it? like if it spends all that energy and the task isn't done

then it's not efficient

is it

it's shit

ISN'T IT

fucking ISN'T IT?! You assholes.

"Ah it's been... let's see, 32, 33, 34?? years? since I played a violin? I'm sure it's like riding a bik-WHY IS THE RESIN EVERYWHERE OH GOD THE SOUND IS AWFUL AND STICKY HELP"

but if they release the full epstein files, who will run all our fortune 500 companies? : (

the idea of a VR headset where we actually get fucking root on the thing shouldn't be so wild and amazing, but it IS

Meta poured 10 billion dollars into making a virtual jail where you don't even get legs, and then wondered why nobody wanted it. "Must be they hate VR", they say, seemingly unaware it's that we just hate Meta and being controlled.
