asylteltine··on Bosses are using RTO mandates as a way to blame employees as a scapegoat
Yeah I hear that as a common argument but why is that my problem? Why should I be forced to commute just because a junior engineer can’t figure shit out?
asylteltine··on Bosses are using RTO mandates as a way to blame employees as a scapegoat
In big tech and not one single person I know wants rto. Not one.
asylteltine··on Updates on Grounding of Boeing 737 MAX 9 Aircraft
The same FAA that fast tracked the max version which led to TWO separate fatal accidents? Yeah I’m sure they are so concerned about safety.
asylteltine··on I Found David Lynch's Lost 'Dune II' Script
The new dune is just better. Some people can’t get around that fact and I think it’s the same realm as retro computing. Sure it’s cool, it’s interesting, it’s fun, but it’s not better. I think they have the same “hobby” as retro computing but won’t admit it so to speak.
asylteltine··on On non-technical video-games cheat mitigations
Another really easy non technical mitigation is to simply region lock China! Fun fact: if you just lock away China away from literally everyone else, your main game will lose most of the cheaters just like that.
asylteltine··on There has never been a better time to game on Linux
Most AAA games do not work on proton because the devs refuse to allow the anti cheat to run. Most anti cheat support Linux but the devs have to allow it.

Destiny, R6, cod, etc refuse to support Linux.

asylteltine··on There has never been a better time to game on Linux
Yes windows is the worst. I can’t wait until AAA devs are forced to support Linux. I’m hoping steam starts to mandate supporting Linux in order to be listed. It’s just not that much more effort
asylteltine··on US regulator considers stripping Boeing's right to self-inspect planes
The ones that pay off the government which is… everyone! Except you, the private citizen.
asylteltine··on I'm sorry but I cannot fulfill this request it goes against OpenAI use policy
I really hope they keep this up and it gets “real reviews” so we can prove Amazon is full of shit. It’s so full of shit I don’t buy products unless it has many thousands of reviews just because of noise
asylteltine··on AMD Reveals Next-Gen Desktop Processors for Extreme PC Gaming
Compared to consoles, that is extreme
asylteltine··on Removing data transfer fees when moving off Google Cloud
I’m betting we will see GCP added to the list of killed by Google in 2025.
asylteltine··on The Internet Is Full of AI Dogshit
Lmao do you know doctors? I mean really, do you personally know doctors? Of course they will and I guarantee you they already do. It’s not a matter of stupidity or incompetence it’s a matter of time and ease of access. Of course people will do the fastest thing available to them how could I blame them? The cat is out of the bag.
asylteltine··on Google Cuts Jobs in Engineering and Other Divisions
Europeans are paid way way less and aren’t hard to work with. Same with Australia.
asylteltine··on Google Cuts Jobs in Engineering and Other Divisions
Quality from India is awful. Both from functionality and just… caring. They don’t really care as much it’s always just good enough. They are generally very difficult to work with.
asylteltine··on The Internet Is Full of AI Dogshit
It’s only a boost to honest people. Meanwhile grifters and lazies will be able to take advantage. This is why we can’t have nice things. It will lead to things like reduction in remote offerings like remote schooling or work
asylteltine··on The Internet Is Full of AI Dogshit
That’s true. I thought I missed the internet before ClosedAI ruined it but man, I would love to go back to 2020 internet now. LLM research is going to be the downfall of society in so many ways. Even at a basic level my friend is taking a masters and EVERYONE is using chatgpt for responses. It’s so obvious with the PC way it phrases things and then summarizes it at the end. I hope they just get expelled.
asylteltine··on Why Would I Buy This Useless, Evil Thing?
Okay…then don’t buy it. Have a nice day
asylteltine··on The teen mental illness epidemic is international (2023)
Do anything of those things affect you personally though? Do most people get affected by that? People make things worse in their heads. Life is fine.
asylteltine··on FreeTaxUSA
I switched and they saved me a ton of money. Easy to use and doesn’t support a company absent of morals
asylteltine··on Samsung forecasts 85% drop in profit as chip sales falter
…okay well besides all that, what have the Romans done for us?
asylteltine··on Ibogaine banishes PTSD, small study finds
Who said their feelings have to be invalid just because they don’t have “ptsd”
asylteltine··on Ibogaine banishes PTSD, small study finds
If everyone has ptsd then no one has ptsd. It’s too loose as it is. Sorry but people who got bombed and shot at deserve a little more priority in terms of mental health.
asylteltine··on The teen mental illness epidemic is international (2023)
Because it’s a ridiculous notion. National crime is at an all time low and gets lower every year. You haven’t been safer more than you are today. Mental safety is feel good progressive nonsense. If you can’t handle reality, you are eventually going to snap.
asylteltine··on The teen mental illness epidemic is international (2023)
Kids used to be more adult before technology was around. I think it’s the opposite parents are coddling their kids plus you have this new lib stuff like safe spaces and the whole concept of “feeling unsafe”. We have an entire generation of babies who can’t handle conflict including internal conflict. So what can they do? Kill themselves or other people as we see them do
asylteltine··on AWS cancels serverless Postgres service that scales to zero
Can’t you bypass CAP if you just have a ton of compute in the background handling all of these tasks in real time? Aurora isn’t just some binary running on ec2 it’s probably 10 different things going on
asylteltine··on X Bans and Then Unbans Journalists and Podcasters in Latest Free Speech Massacre
He visited because he was called out for openly supporting complete psychos like Louis farakan. His advertisers increasingly wanted to disassociate with people like that so he was doing damage control.
asylteltine··on Samsung forecasts 85% drop in profit as chip sales falter
Not surprising given their behavior. Intel stopped innovating around the time ryzen came out. Ryzen itself was an innovation. When was the last time Samsung innovated anything? Quantum dots are a revolution but not related to chips.
asylteltine··on Picking the Widevine Locks: Acquiring and Using an L3 CDM
640K is enough for anyone
asylteltine··on Picking the Widevine Locks: Acquiring and Using an L3 CDM
He used a legitimate endpoint to dump the license
asylteltine··on Picking the Widevine Locks: Acquiring and Using an L3 CDM
What? That should be illegal. They changed the rules after you already purchased the device
