is Resident Pulser a AI promoting bot?

Mythos is bunkum marketing.

Yeah, when they lost the war on terrorism, they surrendered their basic dignity in the name of security theatre.

psst 98% of Metas money comes from selling marketing dorks lies and scamming the larger economy.

That’s why they’re still afloat regardless of not having a product worth a damn.

Its all bollocks. This is the “say you’re alive” “I’m alive” meme.

This is literally just leaning into their marketing. Its not some incredibly revelation. Its the same shit people already had.

Its still just rubbing a few tokens together.

I like their christ, less the christians.

I was just imagining that situation and thought to myself that if only people were both cool and smooth enough to make casual unjudgemental conversation with the preacherman in the checkout line in that moment…

What a world we could live in, if only everyone could stop being shitty to one another.

And that’s where the T2 chip keeps its firmware so when the soldered-on storage goes bad, the whole computer can’t boot and must go directly in the ewaste…

I hate it so damn much.

The default is zsh, I’m not a fan. Bash 3.2 is present by default, however, and is as old as the hills.

You’re arguing the wrong points. You didn’t really read what I said.

I don’t care about Javascript. I don’t want my computer catching dependency hell or cryptominer herpes.

I don’t want that shit rawdogging my system, go package it up into something sensible. I don’t want its entrails all over my system and I don’t want it breaking something elses dependencies.

I mean, last time I checked the kids in cages can’t vote yet. So its more than just voters.

Ha. Eventually, the bottom will drop out the market as low-cost NPUs pick up the model running. A good enough open model will emerge and there wont be a market for a paid model.

We’re already kinda seeing it on the hardware side. Eventually it’ll all dissolve into the hardware like how MPEG2 decode hardware for DVDs was once upon a time an expensive addon accellerator card, but is now fractions of a square mm of gates laid out as part of a larger assembly within the silicon of your GPU.

Previous employer gave me an m1 pro and it just lived in a drawer until I quit.

I’m sure some salesrep got a nice nearly new linkedin machine after that.

The hardware is nice to touch but it is unethically designed by assholes who hold you, the device “owner” in complete contempt.

That was my first reaction until I noticed its object-orientated.

Then I baulked at having to rawdog node and npm on my machine.

no thank you.

You get to use the TPM for something other than being entirely anti-consumer in function!

Its… something!

Eventually the circus has to go away because the cost of tokens is too high - its literally cheaper to train software developers.

Also, the cost to business from having business-continuity-ending events is gonna eat some of these businesses.

I recently got allocated an m5 macbook.

They last like 15 minutes before they’re chipped and scratched, the version of Bash they ship is a million years old, the UI is a fucking mess. Package management is a mess. The walled garden is a mess. I have had to brew this and fix my path for that just to have a working environment. This is ignoring the soldered on RAM bullshit. Can you even do memmap= to recover from bad soldered ram on a macbook or does it just become ewaste?

They sound nice and they feel nice until they’re scratched.

Also the keyboards are heinous.

If Jobs was alive, he’d be punching people for re-inventing Vista Aero.

I thought the UI was supposed to be good.

Fuck these devices.

I’m glad it smelled as suspect to someone else.

Its threads like this that make me glad that these people are running around making infinite work for me to be doing, fixing the messes these people are making.

Alas, noody wants to pay for the work to be done

The world is full of clowns and I don’t want to be in their circus any more

Yeah, I’d imagine its more a “Steven Miller forced to consult AIPAC handlers” than thinking about anything

forty tonners rarely turn up in your cul-de-sac with shagged roads, but nobody has a front garden because everyone has two crossovers.
