the gamer entitlement is fucking insane. they're yelling at a developer who has spent a decade of his time writing Dolphin and PPSSPP for using Claude to build a prototype. the same people who don't pay for their emulator, certainly don't pay for ROMs are entitled to bully developers now?

they could also just look at the top downloads in the app store, where people download stuff usually voluntarily and where the highest ranking apps right now are muse and chatgpt. similar story on the google play store. also really odd how a lot of antis take no issue in misgendering people

maybe it's just my perception but if someone had defended copyright like this 10 years ago, people would have made fun of them. rightfully so.

This is a transistor. It controls current between the collector and the emitter. It's a fancy dimmer switch. There is nothing this device can do that you couldn't already do with a bunch of dimmer switches. No matter how fast they are or how much Bell Labs hypes them, it's just a dimmer switch.

one of the funniest things to me about om*rchy is how stupidly bloated the iso is, it's 5.8 GB, like what the fuck is in there? fedora's isn't even 3 GB, the only distro's iso i've found that is bigger than omarchy's is ubuntu's at 6 GB

Screenshot of SkyTrace displaying information about a Bluesky moderation list. The list is called "dev/engineer/crypto/llm freaks" and was made by @needleminder.bsky.social on September 7, 2026. The description states "people who display an anti-human level of passion/evangelism for AI, as well as STEM types who denigrate or devalue the social sciences & humanities this list is for personal use only. if you are not me, do not use this list."

i'm sorry
OP: "People need to grapple with the fact that LLMs are now solving for mathematical conjectures that are decades/centuries old.

The common sentiment on here is that they're absolutely useless and are always wrong but that is becoming increasingly separated from reality. This just the last 2 months."

Response: "Ted Kaczynski was a prodigy mathematician, accepted to Harvard at just 15 years old. He was also the UnaBomber. So, there's a good reason we don't celebrate his achievements.

LLMs are destroying our water, our jobs, our books, and our communities. Pardon me for not being impressed by their math."Bluesky post: "due to the fact that people who use generative LLM AI to "do all their work" are talentless hacks who don't know what they are doing and simply are happy to be included in something. LLM users are the ICE agents of the computing world."Bluesky post: "But wait, these billionaires ONLY NEED DATA CENTERS to get RICH ON CRYPTOCURRENCY!

CRYPTOCURRENCY NEEDS DATA CENTERS TO EXIST!

STOP DATA CENTERS AND YOU STOP BILLIONAIRES FROM GETTING RICHER AND POLLUTING OUR LAND AND STEALING OUR ENERGY!"

please don't let the joyless reactionaries get to you, people love getting mad over something or someone on the internet, it makes them feel superior without any real risk for them. bsky38 is a fun project and i'd love to see more of those fun projects on here :)

sure, no "real" feelings are being hurt when calling an LLM "clanker", "wireback" or "tinskin" or whatever, but if you see no issue at all casually using terms that are so obviously made to look and sound like actual slurs used against actual people, you are probably a pretty unpleasant person

i dont really understand how people use mastodon as serious social media when something as basic as keyword search just plainly does not work. when searching for posts with a specific word, i get like a dozen results and then the results just stop, as if there weren't other posts containing the word
