Probably some fodder for the “defund the IRS” club.

There’s something I’d like to call “the Bethesda” bar. It’s basically an industrial bar lower than most. Let’s define what that means:
I’m sure the story writers did some characters justice, but I won’t be playing this game - especially since Bethesda claims it “can’t run on older hardware”, despite the fact that modders are proving them wrong.
The Betheada bar is a cancer upon the industry and I view it as consumer facing psy-ops, relying on brain-dead fanboys with nothing going on in their lives to squeal with glee as a new AAA-title is released to fill that void.

Tbh i hate the mirror universe now… from being a not-so-serious in-joke that came back every now and then, not as much as nudging the timeline, plot or characters into any too serious a direction, to becoming an important part of cannon that I just don’t like… mostly because of Discovery and Picard.
It’s really just too cheesy. Alternative universes, by all means, but just a mirror universe where there’s a bit of a role reversal which stems from can only be described as “a trend in the 70s”.
Mirror this, bizarro that, cod sarn it. To call it a gimmick is a bit of an understatement. To call it cannon is a bit embarrassing.
Now excuse me, I’ve ranted about Star Trek on the interwebz, so now I have to go fulfill the government mandated 3 hours of grass touching.
Yeah? How about closing those sweatshops that pollute Chinese rivers, drinking water, that destroys soil so that plants can never grow again, where Chinese works inhale colorant and chemicals… how about that shit, CCP?
Embedded space running window ce still go brrrrrr
A two party system is way to close to a one party system…
…sounds commie to me.
A white hole? Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. A black hole sucks time and matter out of the universe. A white hole returns it.
And another studio hits the dust. So long! We hardly knew yee. At least be grateful you haven’t ended up in the Call of Duty mines, like Raven.
Apparently so. Submission redacted.
Red Dwarf.
There are no aliens. Everything is man-made or a result of human intervention.
Rob the place. Like constantly. Make a sport out of it.
haha pre-installed vendor garbage go brrrrr
Next, the breaking of the candlestick makers fingers.
My god, ISP email service. I know some stragglers have their email address still where I come from, but all that was migrated to a third party email provider instead. ISP email service.
Boy, that brings back memories.
How about a competency test for politicians, how bout that? Competency in emotional intelligence, reading comprehension, an ethics check, maybe even just a cursory wherewithal check, even just a reality check.
If “alternative facts” are used, reject candidate.
Because, as always, the poor are kept poor and the rich are kept rich.
Nazis in Europe are people who have been isolated into their own pockets of society, in that they are shunned from society. Nobody wants anything to do with a nazi.
So most likely they’ll live somewhere remotely, where there’s a lot of white people and behave nicely so the neighbours will say “oh but they are so civil”, not really acknowledging that they are really just coping from having been ostracized by family and local community they had to flee from.
But hey, they deserve it, be because they are fucking Nazis and they - much like the communist parties of Europe - hold no sway whatsoever.
I.e they are not really a factor in anything but a statistical anomaly about habitation in villages - or as a part of Russian propaganda to justify the invasion of Ukraine. Simple as.
So fuck Nazis, fuck Russian government, and fuck you, some random guy on Lemmy.ml.
Future software is going to be written by AI, no matter how much you would like to avoid that.
My speculation is that we will see AI operating systems at some point, due to the extreme effectiveness of future AI to hack and otherwise subvert frameworks, services, libraries and even protocols.
So mutating protocols will become a thing, whereby AI will change and negotiate protocols on the fly, as a war rages between defensive AI and offensive AI. There will be shared codebase, but a clear distinction of the objective at hand.
That’s why we need more open source AI solutions and less proprietary solutions, because whoever controls the AI will be controlling the digital world - be it you or some fat cat sitting on a Smaug hill of money.
EDIT: gawdDAMN there’s a lot of naysayers. I’m not talking stable diffusion here, guys. I’m talking about automated attacks and self developing software, when computing and computer networking reaches a point of AI supremacy. This isn’t new speculation. It’s coming fo dat ass, in maybe a generation or two… or more…
