[Mutual aid request, Defend the Mendiola Protesters] Higit 100 na mamamayan ang dinampot ng kapulisan kahapon sa Maynila pagkatapos ng kilos-protesta sa Luneta, kasama na ang higit 50 na menor de edad.

All the good that TypeScript did to the Node ecosystem, npm is undoing it How can a serious company build on top of this ecosystem that is one npm update away from dependency compromise happening (I am serious: I'd expect more greenfield startups to not go with Node b/c of it)

I have such complicated feelings when it comes to HItchens. on the one hand, he, probably more than any other atheist, is the reason why I'm an atheist ... at the same time I can't forget he supported the Iraq War, posted stupid shit like "women aren't funny" and was islamophobic

Our greatest ethical question as we eat cows and let children starve is whether a for loop in Python feels pain.

a lot of people are surprised that Robert Kennedy is the third most American politician but a lot of liberals/leftists forget that the woo woo RFK champions is popular in both left and right wing circles ...

Stranger Things should end up with all the kids realizing that the 80s kinda sucked

list view should be the default when using ls I hate everyone who disagrees with me on this ...

listen, if you're going to be an AI bro ... sure, whatever ... I'm not okay with AI but I can't deny that it's here and most likely will stay and that there are use cases for AI ... but fuck everyone who promotes Grok or works with Grok

AI CLI tools are mostly worthless… I really don’t see the need for them … granted I haven’t tried claude code yet

I'm sorry. I still don't see the point of neovim when I can just use vim

I am unashamedly an Alan Moore fanboy and will defend him against most of his critics, but I do recognize parts of his work *is* problematic. He is fascinated by rape and his defense of certain forms of erotica is controversial to say the least and is a tiny bit tone deaf when it comes to race.

the rather annoying workaround is to add -ai at the end of the search query but it really should be just a simple toggle

I'm sorry but pair programming with LLMs is really stupid ...

I really can’t take anti capitalist videos on youtube seriously… like I agree with most of what they’re saying but they’re all so terribly made …

Nicolas Cage deserved an Oscar for Con Air and Face Off

So I caved and tried “vibe coding” as I wanted to a) know more about it and b) improve my chances of finding work. And I have to say it’s more annoying than helpful. I have to come up with a prompt, then wait for the AI to spit out garbage then review that garbage.

Bourne Identity is better than the entire Mission Impossible series. fuck you, you know I'm right

I'm sorry but Jim from The Office is an asshole

it's over - Switch 2 will move a billion units by the end of the year ... I might as well format my Steam Deck now and get it over with ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVUi...

Sam Altman's latest blog reveals the energy costs of running ChatGPT. Lately OpenAI was bragging about 1 billion queries daily, so summing it up: Running (not training) ChatGPT uses over 10 GWh monthly on average, plus nearly 10 million liters of water. Insane. blog.samaltman.com/the-gentle-s...

whenever anyone brings up concerns about how much energy is needed to power Chat GPT (or any other AI models) and what it will do to the climate, there is always at least one AI evangelist dismissing these concerns ... and yet they keep needing more and more energy to create the dumbest shit

seriously, fuck Ground News I don't need something to tell me if a news site is biased ... I know their bias .. I need to know is a news site is lying ...

now this is a man who knows how to marry his cousin!

maybe it's just me but there seems to be a market for people who do not want to have AI and all these other bullshit features on their devices ...

this is pretty much the same problem we have in the philippines ...

the Square Enix Deus Ex games correctly predicted that the public would hate people who voluntarily augmented themselves .. what they got wrong is that the public was right to hate these people ... (the Square Enix Deus Ex games are garbage by the way)

this is progress ...

of course the UK signed a deal with the US ... everytime a US president decides to do something batshit insane, you can bet the UK prime minister will be there to kiss his ass and act like a sniveling coward ...

$80 for a video game is fine. I mean, no one is pointing a gun to your head to buy it in the first place, so who really gives a shit? gamers are a bunch of whiny little shits

One of the most underrated stories over the last 5 years is the Dems who have been corrupted by crypto money (growing every day as crypto pours money into primaries) causing a big split within the Dem caucus

LOL

I really like how delusional Steam Deck owners are ...

Hot take: the vampires in Sinners were not the bad guys. They were antagonists to be sure, but they weren’t the bad guys in the movie…

The scene in Sinners where Miles Canton is playing at the juke:

should have been president ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrJP...

This should be shown to the MMDA and every politician here in the Philippines

the Thai characters in White Lotus season 3 were barely characters and I'm pretty positive the only reason Mook exists is because HBO wanted the girl from Black Pink to be on the show ...

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

Americans can have the best economy in the world but if they see an immigrant enjoying that economy, they will think that everything is going to shit ...

The world lost a great one ...

all of these "instant ramen hacks" take more effort than just simply ordering ramen from a local restaurant ...

People are really confusing Signal with the incompetence and malevolence of the Trump administration ... bluesky gets a tiny bit annoying each day ...

I'm sorry, but all these tech youtubers are overselling the Steam Deck. it's an okay piece of hardware with terrible software ... the only saving grace about it is that it's Linux and I will mindlessly support anything that uses Linux

I recently bought a mini PC because I wanted to get back into Linux and I wanted to create a simple cloud service at home to backup my photos and other files. I got the Beelink SER5 Pro with the Ryzen 7 5850u because it was pretty cheap and it was all I needed.
