So the fucker bought up all RAM on the fucking planet even though he couldn't use it all and did channel stuffing only for hundreds of billions of dollars of GPUs to rot in warehouses and destroyed the electronics market for... for what exactly? This smells like a scam https://respawnfirst.com/before-resigning-jensen-huang-admitted-he-was-facing-an-avalanche-of-excess-wafers-and-memory-new-report-sheds-more-light-on-the-gpu-ram-crisis/

It's good to see that NLnet, a prominent funder of F/LOSS development, isn't buying into generated code. Tiny glimmers of hope.
@Khrys Ah ça y est on a atteint le point CFDT. La CFDT c'est vraiment le baromètre de « c'est la giga merde », pour les faire bouger il en faut.
@KekunPlazas @Khrys la CFDT c'est comme le CoCC de certains projets libres. Quand ils se bougent ont est content, mais on a un peur de ce qu'ils vont dire 🫠

Gurus told everyone to post twice a day. Everyone did. Now the feeds contain more posts than anyone can read.
Each new post competes with every other post for the same hours of attention. When supply grows faster than attention, each post is worth less. I call this content hyperinflation.
Why your content is worth zero:

I forgot that I hate .net assemblies/.DLL nonsense
to access serial ports in C#, simply use System.IO.Ports, which is part of the System.IO.Ports.dll assembly. If that's not part of the Unity game you're already hacking, FUCK YOU!

Last night we were idly discussing the kind of nonsense you could buy with the Euromillions win and I remembered that there is such a thing as a Fabergé potato.
He must have been giggling the whole time he was making it.
And because all the search results are the most watery stool AI slop imaginable, I have found a genuine picture of it for you to see. (Edit: put the pictures into the toot to save you a click)

NVIDIA Allegedly Engineered Scarcity By Funding AI Startups To Buy Its GPUs
Following the departure of now-former NVIDIA CEO, Jensen Huang, a new report has emerged alleging that NVIDIA artificially inflated the ongoing GPU and memory shortage by investing in AI startups that would go on to buy NVIDIA GPUs and build data centers. The reason behind this was to maintain the perception of ongoing high demand and to move an oversupply of semiconductors from TSMC.

Dearest Gertrude,
It is day 96 of the Great Email Outage. The slow pace of our communication by post makes me yearn for you stronger than ever. Especially since the post office has been fucked for many years now. The Polaroids of your bosom are quite welcome. But, alas, they do not hit the same as a JPEG. Please enjoy the enclosed 35mm slide of my nethers.
Yours truly,

Never in a million years could I have gotten my horse to step aboard a public bus. Those are calm horses! (And for serious: Thank goodness they didn’t spook while in there. That would have been dangerous for everyone nearby.)

I don't want to kink shame but this urinal in Manchester seems keen.
(This may just be my filthy mind admittedly)
I'm hacking on some BepInEx code, which is a Unity Game Modding framework, and one of the samples in the docs involves patching the random number generator to always return 4.
which is an example that has gotten a lot funnier since last month
@foone lmao I forgot about that! damnit I could've made that a timely reference

wtf???
@bgm @brothersoul big wave of racist spam on owncast recently. It hit @meljoann’s gravitons festival this week, and @wordsmith wrote some scripts to try to contain the damage…
