I got banned from r/unpopularopinion circa 2015 for trolling. I submitted a post saying that only because something is on Netflix, doesn’t mean that it is automatically good. I got downvoted to hell and a lot of comments showing counter-examples, now that I think about, it must’ve been Netflix PR team.

Anyhow, decided to delete my account that was prior to the Digg migration, then made a new one, but never posted again. Now I’m here and loving it!

I saw an image edit with a Toyota Prius badge and I legit liked it

There are companies that offer RaaS, basically radar rentals.

I’ve been using wgetip.com for over a decade now

Meaningful friction my beloved

our company renamed out ML team into AI team, just to please investors, they been around for over a decade and never touched an LLM

I’ve been using it since it was called Revolt and quite like it, albeit I’ve never used the voice feature. My group doesn’t really have the need for it, but I can see it being a deal breaker for the self-hosted version.

I’m watching people in my industry (software development) who’ve bought into this crap forget how to code in real-time while they’re producing the shittiest garbage I’ve laid eyes on as a developer.

I just spent two days fixing multiple bugs introduced by some AI made changes, the person who submitted them, a senior developer, had no idea what the code was doing, he just prompted some words into Claude and submitted it without checking if it even worked, then it was “reviewed” and blindly approved by another coworker who, in his words, “if the AI made it, then it should be alright”

I had a friend who was a true believer in Stadia, he even sold his gaming PC as he was gaming in Stadia full time.

When Stadia shut down he told me “at least I get to keep the controller”

Elder millennial here, I also struggle reading analogue clocks to this day. I can, but it just takes me a long time to do so. And I’ve been like this since I was a little kid.

I was diagnosed with Autism at the ripe old age of 33. When I told my parents about it, my mum lost her mind because I was actually diagnosed at 7, she just never told me in hopes I will be “normal” and thought she got away with it.

Because they were invented in Germany. But yes, they are the standard in most of Europe now, in some countries they are known as European windows

just today someone told me that Vocaloid was also AI music, they are either too dumb to make some basic fact-checking or true believers trying to hype up AI by any means necessary

Sharpening is a simple convolution, doesn’t even count as ML.

I really hate that everything gets the AI label nowadays

we were happy and we didn’t know it

can confirm, when I used to work for a government contractor, everything was HP. From laptops to servers, from mice to printers.
