The Zionist propaganda on Reddit is inescapable.

frostysauce ,

I'm American and I just want to live and drink vodka.

frostysauce ,

Tankees. Tankees everywhere.

frostysauce ,

You made a coherent argument as to why you use a service, specific to yourself. You get downvoted for doing so. Never change, lemmy.

...Or, perhaps, do change. Y'all can still sniff your own farts if y'all pull y'all's heads slightly out of your asses.

frostysauce ,

Yeah, browsing my own curated subs on old.reddit with RES and uBlock Origin is nowhere near as bad as people are making reddit out to be. Don't get me wrong, reddit IS shit, but my experience isn't the kind of shit people say it is.

frostysauce ,

The day they finally kill old.reddit is the day I give it up completely.

Same here, for sure. I do lemmy on my phone and reddit on my laptop, I'll just switch to lemmy on both when that day comes.

CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information (futurism.com)

You know how Google's new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won't slide off (pssst...please don't do this.)...

frostysauce ,

It can gum up the works.

frostysauce ,

Seriously you sound like a Mac user in the '90s Linux user today.

FTFY

Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads (www.techradar.com)

Netflix has managed to annoy a good number of its users with an announcement about an upcoming update to its Windows 11 (and Windows 10) app: support for adverts and live events will be added, but the ability to download content is being taken away....

frostysauce ,

So they are introducing ads and removing the download option, both moves unfriendly to consumers. Sounds like they plan to do a "We've listened to consumers and" shelving one of those moves for later (probably the download option) when the hubbub over the worse option dies down.

frostysauce ,

Cops are tools of the wealthy to oppress us.

frostysauce ,

There's very few products which everyone can objectively say are designed for killing.

Yes, and guns are one of them.

frostysauce ,

I actually was talking to a neighbor at my apartments 20 some-odd years ago. We got to talking about coke and he asked if I'd ever smoked it before.

"No..." So I followed him across the hall to his apartment and took a hit. "Whoa, this is fucking great! ...Wait, when you smoke it isn't it crack?"

"Yeah, it's awesome isn't it!? You know, if you want more I can probably find some..."

So, yup. I got my first hit of crack for free. I never thought that happened in real life before, either, and I've never had or heard of it happening since. Additionally, about six months later I stopped smoking crack.

frostysauce ,

It won't matter, they would have all of your comments archived already. Even if you overwrite them AI will be scraping the copies they keep.

frostysauce ,

I hate dogs and would hate to be in an Air BNB where there was a dog about. But fuck yes, Kevin, if you're lonely you still deserve to be treated well. Let's go to bed, Kevin.

frostysauce ,

You are not making a valid argument, as evidenced by your argument being torn to shreds in the comments here.

Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads (www.lowpass.cc)

Roku is exploring ways to show consumers ads on its TVs even when they are not using its streaming platform: The company has been looking into injecting ads into the video feeds of third-party devices connected to its TVs, according to a recent patent filing.  ...

frostysauce ,

Even worse: Imagine being the guy working on this and being proud of yourself.

frostysauce ,

...Viewed on what? A Roku TV?

frostysauce ,

Perfect. Then people can avoid ads at that gas station by going to another gas station with ads!

frostysauce ,

Just like American blended whiskey is a little bit of whiskey, neutral grain spirits, and caramel coloring.

frostysauce ,

I doubt the Europeans will abandon their circlejerk that easily.

frostysauce ,

Good for y'all.

frostysauce ,

It doesn't matter if it is legal or enforceable. Who's going to stop them?

frostysauce ,

Congratulations on finding a €1500 dumb TV.

Online vape seller has ‘no intention of stopping’ shipments to Australia, despite nationwide ban — ‘We have no intention of stopping just because of one twat in Canberra.’ (www.vice.com)

Online vape seller has ‘no intention of stopping’ shipments to Australia, despite nationwide ban — ‘We have no intention of stopping just because of one twat in Canberra.’::The New Zealand-based seller issued a notice to its Australian customers that shipments will continue regardless of the government's vape reform.

frostysauce ,

Oh, piss off.

The three US states I've lived in all allowed children in liquor stores if accompanied by a parent or guardian

Roku TV bricked until agreeing to new terms of service

See title - very frustrating. There is no way to continue to use the TV without agreeing to the terms. I couldn't use different inputs, or even go to settings from the home screen and disconnect from the internet to disable their services. If I don't agree to their terms, then I don't get access to their new products. That...

frostysauce ,

Also without remote controls.

frostysauce ,

I couldn't even fucking read it.

frostysauce ,

Hey. The jerk store called, they're out of you!

frostysauce ,

We should be passing laws making these types of restrictions HOAs illegal

FTFY

frostysauce ,

This has all happened before and it will all happen again.

frostysauce ,

This right here is where I stopped carrying what you have to say.

frostysauce ,

Yo dawg. I heard you like your miners to be minors..

frostysauce ,

Nobody is “taking” land, it’s sold by the landowner.

If someone "owns" land that land was taken by somebody.

frostysauce ,

The X-Men was originally a civil rights allegory... It's been woke since the beginning.

frostysauce ,

You're fucking unhinged, mate.

frostysauce ,

I did that for 13 years already..

frostysauce ,

Cat.

frostysauce ,

But do you have a mom?

frostysauce ,

None of those points matter if shareholders see value from it.

frostysauce ,

Most people don't reread their past comments and edit them. They could simply ignore any edits after the average time a person would notice a typo or something needing clarification, say anywhere between 5 minutes and 24 hours, or just ignore all edits. So your effort is wasted and you're still training the AI.

frostysauce ,

Is there a word for mansplaining to poor people? Because that's how that came off.

frostysauce ,

They would be even more expensive than cereal because they would upcharge for the convenience of not having to pour cereal into a bowl.

frostysauce ,

We're soldiers of fortune we'll fight for no country but we'll die for good pay. Under the flag of the greenback dollar or the peso down Mexico way..

frostysauce ,

Yet...

frostysauce ,

Don't knock delivering pizzas.

frostysauce ,

"No, let's make our users play a fucking puzzle for a minute before granting them access".

Of course, they want you to train their AI for them.

I am genuinely horrified to see how much data google collected from me

I created a google takeout and in that zip file I found some files containing a ton of data about me. It has logged every single page I visited while using the google search engine and chrome browser. It even logged every single time I opened an app on my old android phone. It even has VOICE RECORDINGS of me and a log of every...

frostysauce ,

It's [current year], nobody is learning that lesson today. We've all known it for well over a decade now.
