  • None of the hyperscalers have produced enough revenue to even cover operating costs. Many have reported deceptive “annualized” figures or just stopped reporting at all.

    Couple that with the hardware having a limited lifespan of around 5 years, and you’ve got an entire industry being subsidized by hype.

  • Check out wheresyoured.at for some "haters guides."

    My general take is that virtually none of the common "useful" forms of AI are even remotely sustainable strictly from a financial standpoint, so there's not use getting too excited about them.

  • What's your favourite story from history that is actually false or exaggerated?

  • The Boston Massacre.

    9 officers were surrounded by like 300 angry Bostonians who were wielding clubs and other weapons and goading them to fire their weapons while throwing shit at them. The fact that the only punishment for the officers who killed five people following their trial (in colonial court defended by John Adams) was that two had their thumbs branded indicated how two-sided the situation was.

    Paul Revere's famous engraving depicting the incident was intentional anti-British propaganda used to advance the cause of the revolution.

  • Was going to bring up interest rates, but apparently a 30 year mortgage in 1960 was something like 7%. Which...isn't that bad.

  • Cloudflare went down today and took half of the internet with it. How does one company have that much impact? Do you think that's concerning?

  • A friend of mine posted a picture of a Halloween decoration of a skeleton man with a skeleton dog jumping up on him. It reminded me of a photo I've seen of the same but with real skeletons and it brought me to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grover_Krantz

    Didn't realize he was a local Washingtonian who studied Bigfoot.

  • The frustrating part of this is how much of the smartphone world is dependent on companies playing along.

    I have a Venmo business account I use from time to time. I tried to log in on it from my laptop yesterday to check my balance. I was met with this:

    We used to complain that apps are just worse versions of websites, but increasingly, you're being forced to install an app just to do basic things.

    Is there any way to guarantee every app will be available on a linux phone? We can grab APKs at the moment off sketchy websites, but I don't know how much longer that's going to work after Google kills sideloading.
