Our language has been completely warped by Big Tech's algorithms, from a generation that's grown up saying "unalive", to the way everyone's censored themselves talking about the Cornell rapists. It's time to fight back against billionaire control of free speech. www.anildash.com/2026/10/06/k...

on top of the function the form of its answer is so grating; the axios-ass header, restating _everything_, the sycophantic "good pushback"

Yeah big pet peeve, people deciding (or at least professing to) whether or not they like a game based basically on how long they think it will be in the top 10 on Twitch

Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

Yeah I mean I personally (and I have to assume MANY people) watch the avatar movies because they're basically half a billion dollar state-of-the-art tech demos and that's sick as hell, not because they have "cinematic universe" potential

I have a question for you as the proximate Trails expert - I'm about to finish the Sky FC remake and I assume SC/3rd remakes are coming eventually; should I just skip to Zero while I wait for those?

another time someone I only ever talked to over slack finally heard my voice in a zoom meeting and messaged someone else to find out how old I was because they thought I was "a helpful old man" the whole time. funny profile picture pays off

my slack/outlook pic is the same as on here (the king of sweden yelling at the olympics) and one time I got a shout out in some all-hands and they used that picture

The Boox Palma is not for everything, but for reading books on the go, the form factor is transformative, and does what Kindle doesn't.

have you seen the Hyundai EV with the fake "paddle-shifted transmission" mode? extremely silly but in a more self-aware way

sort of tangential, but what's the consensus on smart LED strips? I have home assistant/zigbee/zwave stuff but most of my other lights are Hue, and there's no way Hue strips are worth the cost

I'll occasionally consider buying one of these to replace a chromecast and then convince myself "I should just wait for the new one that's surely coming soon" lol
