  • Satya Nadella insists people are using Microsoft’s Copilot AI a lot

    Jump

  • Yea, sure. They're unwilling "active users" because they accidentally click on some copilot garbage that's been shoved into every inch of Windows. While I see plenty of folks using various AI tools, none of those tools are copilot.

  • I remember my first build with SATA and being really confused when I couldn't find the jumpers.

  • A Corvette topped IMSA GTD Pro this year...I'd have to say they do pretty good on a track.

  • Make me feel like a man

    Jump

  • It doesn't perma brick the car. Just stick the fuse back in, drive it a bit so it realizes the telematics module is fine, and it's back to normal.

  • Make me feel like a man

    Jump

  • 100%. Work in IT, but have worked on cars as a hobby most of my life too. I was messing around trying to figure out how to disable telemetry at a hardware level on mine, so I pulled the fuse for the telemetry module to see what would happen. It bricked the entire vehicle.

    The 90s were peak. Reliability and low maintenance of electronic fuel injection, but would keep on running if any of the ancillary crap failed.

  • What did you treat yourself to most recently?

    Jump

  • Made cookie brownies (brookies?). They were pretty good.

  • What's a popular opinion on Lemmy that's unpopular in the real world?

    Jump

  • I think it is useful with a constrained dataset. Like using it to summarize things about a dataset, or dumping documents into it and asked getting info about it (like Gemini in Google Drive).

    It is not useful for general question using the whole-ass internet as a dataset.

    Also I wish it was called something other than AI...it's just a word guesser FFS.

  • Seasonal Enjoyment!

    Jump

  • I found a little cart by a farm in the middle of nowhere with a load of pumpkins on it for $1. Best thing I've spent $1 on all year.

  • Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest!

    Jump

  • This strangely made me feel a better about the concept of death.

    Sometimes I think about it and fall in a few seconds of existential dread. But this kinda...makes it make sense?

  • Those of you who install non-google-play apps (aka: sideloading), what's your gameplan for the upcoming Google restrictions on Sideloading?

    Jump

  • I'm probably being too optimistic, but they've gotta have a switch in dev settings to disable this check, right? I really hope they're not truly, full stop, not allowing you to side load apps that don't meet this stupid requirement.

    FFS they just had that awful Pixel 10 launch event where they talked about Android being open and what not.

  • The White House Rose Garden was replaced by pavement

    Jump

  • Complains windmills make Scotland ugly.

    Proceeds to pave over the Rose Garden.

  • What is the oldest electronic you own?

    Jump

  • Game Boy Advance with a Pokemon Sapphire cartridge that I don't think has been removed in over a decade. Every time I turn it on I always wonder how I spent so many hours staring at a screen with no backlight.

  • Built to last

    Jump

  • Requires wifi. Sends gigs of data back to the manufacturer everyday. But it has pretty chime.

  • What's a really popular game franchise you just can't get into?

    Jump

  • Fallout. I like the premise and I'll watch other people play it, but I just cannot get into the mechanics of that franchise. Something about VATS is just not enjoyable to me.

  • Maybe if you didn't split settings into that half-baked settings app, then leave control panel in place with the remaining settings, but make control panel increasingly difficult to get to, we wouldn't need a stupid AI agent to help us change settings.

  • Rev. William Barber arrested in Capitol Rotunda after praying against Republican-led budget

    Jump

  • This has got to be hanging around somewhere in that building for easy reference....

    "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

  • What's the last straw that made you quit commercial social medias (Meta,TwitterX, etc...)?

    Jump

  • I quit Facebook/Insta long ago but started perma deleting stagnant accounts a little after Cambridge Analytic stuff I think? It was my first real eye-opening moment when it came to data privacy and the whole misinformation cesspool that is social media.

    Reddit when 3rd party apps were dropped.

    Twitter partly when Musk killed 3rd party apps...then fully when he became a shithead.

    Snapchat mostly because it annoyed me.

    Never used TikTok other than viewing a video someone sent me in a web browser.

    Bonus because I'm still salty: Prime when they introduced ads in Prime Video.

  • This only applies to GM EVs. Friend has a 2025 ICE Chevy which has both AA and CarPlay. Still dumb that the EVs don't have it though.
