Yes puppet, Yes puppet, He’s a puppet.

Ghost is open source, independent, and funded 100% by its users.

Nice. I was looking for an alternative to Substack (not very hard obvs) and this might do it.

What’s weird is that these people are so awful, so horrible as leaders, and so wasteful and stupid with the massive fortune they’ve found and we all can change it with one simple press of a button - and we don’t.

Isn’t . . . I mean civil disobedience usually includes arrest right?

Yes, ACAB, but - I mean isn’t that the point sometimes?

Pffft. That’s nothing! Hey, I authorize U.S. hedge fund to invest a minimum of $100 Million dollars in my personal company, lemmyposting.io. A minimum!

Okay? So step back Pooty-poot, those hedge funds gotta some quality goods to invest in right here first!

Yeah it’s A LOT like that.

Just like it was the first time around.

I actually wondered that at the time simply because whenever a new person discovers the horrors of HP printers people in the comments are always boosting Brother printers.

Like, if Canon had been accused of bricking third-party printer ink I’m not sure it would have made the feed.

However, uncertainty over Trump’s stance on defense treaties has raised concerns.

That’s just excellent work republiQans. You’ve destabilized everything. Kudos.

Everyone who cheer-led the AI garbage trucks moved up in the world. Across the board. All over ther world.

Turns out they were very, very wrong and quite stupid.

Now Apple (and everyone else) has to roll all that back and try to save face.

Exactly. I thought the article was going to be about how they’ve been shoe-horning “Apple Intelligence” into recent updates, which everyone turns off immediately. Instead it’s:

The company has officially delayed features first promised last June intended to modernize Siri and give Apple a much-needed boost in the AI race.

HA! First of all the “AI race” is an ass-grabbing competition between insane corporate overlords who can’t wait to burn another hundred billion on something that doesnt’ work.

Secondly, last June was still in the bubble of AI hype when everyone and their dog was forced to comment on it ortherwise the idiot herds would affect stock price.

Thirdly, this isn’t about Apple not getting something to work, this is about Apple understanding what an abysmal shitshow the generative AI functionality is, and trying to land the plane before anything else catches fire.

Ridiculous.

Good.

Nnnnnno?

Well played.

Yeah, sure they exist. Much like the ENIAC. And it’s cool stuff to work with. It’s just not anywhere close to practical. And it never has been.

Sure, sure and it’s interesting stuff. But not anywhere near useful in the sense people mean when they talk about computers.

Goddamn.
