Man I never wanted a cyberdisk to show up more than I do right now

Z3k3 , (edited )

Indeed know a guy who got played 9ff by big blue. He was the only one who could do his job so he has screwed them as a contractor for 500 a day 100% working from home and a loooooong termination clauses

Edit sorry this is in the UK not us

Z3k3 ,

That's an interesting point. I winder how llms handle gdpr would it be like having a tiny piece of your brain cut out

All the ways streaming services are aggravating their subscribers this week (arstechnica.com)

Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced....

Apparently their income has increased so as far as they are concerned they are.

Amusingly my wife is ready to cancel because she got an add for one of their shitty mobile games instead of end credits while watching on her tablet in bed

Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?

I'm sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I'm sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I'm sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it's been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?

Z3k3 ,

i try to train words that i use as shorthand or slang for years it completely ignores me. i accidently end my email address .comd instead of .com once 5 years ago!! will that thing forget it no never

Z3k3 ,

Depends how loud they are. I often pose to talk to someone in the room

Tech brands are forcing AI into your gadgets—whether you asked for it or not (arstechnica.com)

Earlier this year, Microsoft added a new key to Windows keyboards for the first time since 1994. Before the news dropped, your mind might’ve raced with the possibilities and potential usefulness of a new addition. However, the button ended up being a Copilot launcher button that doesn’t even work in an innovative way....

Z3k3 ,

That creates a market for morticians and midwifes creating preauthenticated accounts to sell to bot farms

Z3k3 ,

3.0 ain't exactly looking much brighter

Z3k3 ,

Remind me again why IoT is a good idea

Z3k3 ,

Yeh luckily they (corporations) beat hype for new toys out of me before iot really took off. Now I just see everything that connects to the net through the lense of how are they screwing ne and how soon are they killing it

Z3k3 ,

You are of course correct. Guess my definition of iot must include going over the Internet. Comes with being an old cunt I guess. I do have a couple network devices but nothing that has packets that need to leave the house

Z3k3 ,

2 simple words that poison a game for me sight unseen "live service"

And yes I will shit on them all

Z3k3 ,

I always read this type of statement as man = species.

I know this particular thinking is falling out of fashion but it's not totally dead yet

Z3k3 ,

In the context of prehistory it's to my knowledge taken to be short for mankind and feck all else. I agree its ambiguous in the modern age which is likely why it's dieing out. Science doesn't like ambiguous wordage

In history where we have names and context I absolutely agree and it is good to see the important women in history finally getting brought to the forefront

Z3k3 ,

I though yhe blonde spelling was just used for beer

Z3k3 ,

You know I never thought to ask

Z3k3 ,

For this reason I have completely stopped watching a thing new. I'm sure I'm missing a lot of great shows ut I'm just sick of a great show ending on cliffhanger thT will never get resolved

Z3k3 ,

It's wielder that that. There was a period when my plastics bin actively got rejected if the caps were still on the bottle. To this day I have no clue why but they can't do that anymore

Z3k3 ,

Isn't that still the case though?

Z3k3 ,

I deleted my shut when I left bur thinking about it. It's mostly drunken rambling and bad takes. Probably should have left it

Z3k3 , (edited )

Yeh 2 or 3 but normal people can't afford them due to the price of fucking everything going up a lot.

In seriousness I like how the ps5 feels to play but due to slow releases unless it's the last of us re re re master master deluxe lack of time or just not having a free 70 quid that month I buy 1 or 2 games a year.

Multiplayer games are not my thing.

Z3k3 ,

Eh?

Z3k3 ,

Arnt they all.

I got the original vive which just my beatsaber player but due yo having a wife a job and chit to get done it lives in its protective case and when I do get a min yo use it both controler batteries are dead due to time living in a box

Z3k3 ,

Let's be honest the min you see a picture of a half eaten apple on a thing just add a 0 to the price tag

Disney+ has started cracking down on password sharing in the US (www.engadget.com)

Disney+ started getting strict about password sharing in Canada last year, and now it's expanding the restriction to the US. According to The Verge, the streaming service has been sending out emails to its subscribers in the country, notifying them about a change in its terms of service. Its service agreement now states that...

Of it were up to me I'd drop it in a heart beat. I'm outvoted by kids grandkids and wife who watch random things throughout the day.

I barely watch TV these days and would happily hooky the odd things I do want to see

Z3k3 ,

Cool ill give em a look

Z3k3 ,

I recently found Firefox has extensions for blocking them on your homepage works a treat with app an sponsor block.

Added them the last time my hide for 30 days expired and the option was gone.

Seriously why the fuck would I want to watch vertical videos on my desktop that if I wasn't blocking them would be bookends by ads longer than the fucking video

Z3k3 ,

Can you please tell me what they do. I have heard my work uses it but they sure as shit ain't selling anythings

Z3k3 ,

Lol that's amusing as the co I work for develops and sells a ticketing system (itil based)

Z3k3 ,

Close

Z3k3 ,

He could start a little bits franchise

Z3k3 ,

I find myself hitting the same issues with ddg as with Google. The 1st page trys to sell me the thing I want info on

Z3k3 ,

I'll have you know windows has changed.

Now you can't move the task bar
