Seeing the #election results... this really is the 1930s... I mean 2020s isn't it?

I am cis and white. All I have to do for the next 20 years is to smile and nod I guess.

#Sweden

The Greens becomes the third biggest party at 13.8%

Social Democrats stays as the by far largest party with 24.9%

The Conservatives end up at 17.6%

And more surprisingly the same trend as in #Finland but less extreme, the Left-Ving party gain 4.8% and end up at 11%, almost doubling it's votes from last time.

While I am contemplating dual booting with #Linux again here are some of my old desktops. Because as we all know showing your desktop screenshots of Linux is mandatory on all social networks.

Okay, please explain to me again how adding more "if" rows to an LLM will make it sentient and "smarter than humans" "very soon"?

I am starting to think that the tech bros worrying about this have the same tech skills as whatshisface... Felon Husk?

Less General MacArthur, more 1950s rebel biker. This is my final look, I think.

Between us we can detect any weather change.

I get a headache when a low pressure is coming, my wife gets one when a high pressure coming...

I can't be the only guy who cringe and brace before reading a comment section for a woman youtuber almost regardless of the subject?

I am less and less scared AI "will become smarter than humans" and more and more afraid someone will opt to put an incompetent and hallucinating AI in charge of something it really shouldn't, like self flying planes or trains or healthcare.

Not installed Linux yet but keep planning the setup in my head.

#Dog update: very heavy limping in front right leg still. Vet checked, no pain reaction at fully stretched or pressure from below, strong reaction when fully bent and under pressure.

Conclusion: Lage rammed the front edge of his shoulder blade into the bookshelf. Nothing broken. Painkillers for a bit.

Basically best case scenario.

There are three types of articles about #Microsoft Recall:

1. The "Tech Journalist" view: "GREAT! All my problems with finding that web page I was visiting three weeks ago are solved! No I do not know how to bookmark things in a browser, why do you ask?" followed by "People who worry about security are wrong, this is the best thing since smart lamps connected to the internet!"

2. The Cyber Security view: "BURN IT WITH FIRE!"

3. The "DYI guides for Windows" view: "This is how you disable it".

WhyNotZoidberg, 14 days ago to retrogaming

I don't have any real retro games I want to play enough to say get a hold of an emulator; I fully admit most games I played 10 hours a day in my youth (the 1980s) were shit. The oldest games might actually fancy to play still functions on Steam.

Of course there were good ones like Arkanoid, Uridium, Balder Dash, Tetris and a bit later Defender of the Crown and a few others, but most were played because they were the only game in town.

Did you know: England is the least cool country in Britain.

Which makes sense in the same way Sweden is the least cool country in Scandinavia AND the Nordics.

Small observation:
Cream is IN again.

For the longest time, recipes with cream in them were something that belonged to the 70s or earlier.

Now, all of a sudden, almost all recipes that is a stew, or a soup, or simply has a sauce, is filled with deciliters upon deciliters of full cream again.

Spotify's algorithm (AI?) is horrible even compared to say YouTube.

First song on a "British Invasion/ Hippie" autogenerated playlist is "No particular place to go" with Chuck Berry.

#Spotify cannot recognize genres for shit.

I have never managed to sustain a physical regiment. I am one of those people who find working out / exercise so utterly mindnumbingly boring.

I am confused re: the people who say AI will become self aware soon.

Are they saying it only for hype, or do they genuinely have no clue about how "AI" works?

Appros nothing:

There is absolutely nothing in the definition of Nazism that says "has to hate Jews, specifically". People who argue something isn't Nazism because they do not go after Jews specifically simply use a popularized definition that fits their narrative.

WhyNotZoidberg, 17 days ago to chrome

On PC it seems only #Chrome and #Firefox offer no frills non bloated #browsers anymore.

Maybe the Duck duck Go browser, but it lacks the things I actually do count as essential (syncing across platforms).

Anyway, all other browsers seem chock full of bloat, cramming the browser full of features I will never use.
