Larry Page is officially moving business out of California ahead of a proposed billionaire's tax in c/news@lemmy.world

It’s really cool how he made all this money in a state that had favorable conditions for his tech business and then wants to run away without paying his share for infrastructure. Asshole.

Yes, that’s exactly why we had to stop. She pounced when we weren’t playing and scratched my eye. Luckily, no permanent damage. (I was lying down when she got me.)

"What else can we do that's hostile to our customers?"

The next move will be bringing back Clippy and then a full-screen ad that you have to dismiss every ten seconds.

The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Exactly. I've been doing it for so long (because otherwise my cats would splash the water) that I find it gross when people leave them open to flush.

Every man who posts the meme should have to use this.

Microsoft CEO wants you to stop calling AI "slop" in 2026 in c/nottheonion@lemmy.world
[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 6 days ago

Hang on everybody… I have to think about this. I think maybe I wanna do what he says. I mean, he's gotta be a genius cause he's a ceo, so how could his advice (demands) be wrong?

He's right. AI bullshit is fucking magic.

What a shame. I was super excited to send money to this grifter and show off how much of a patriot I am. And it's fake gold, which everyone knows is super classy.

Tony Perkins Calls For Boycotting "Woke" Chick-fil-A - Joe.My.God. in c/nottheonion@lemmy.world
[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 17 points 1 week ago

If you think Chic-Fil-A is woke (not saying you, just people in general), you probably should become a fan of Marjorie Taylor-Greene. She's also suddenly become a huge supporter of Leftist politics and isn't a piece of shit racist. /s

this is how I picture the people I argue with online in c/memes@lemmy.ml

I literally have to apologize for being white every singe day. At work? Apology. At the store? Apology. With my spouse? Apology.

It's like a white man in America can't get a fair shake in America as a white man! /s

Btw, some people are really stupid.

Don't badmouth Autistic people. They're way more adept at emailing than a stupid LLM.

Excuse me, but everyone who thought Machine Learning isn't about to rearrange all of humanity simply didn't get the memo. /s

That's because stupid people think LLMs are "thinking" machines. Let the man-child with too much money sink more on this stupid shit until he's poor.

Jane Goodall’s death triggered the premiere of Netflix’s new show (www.theverge.com)
 

Such a badass.

“Absolutely there are people I don’t like, and I would like to put them on one of Musk’s spaceships and send them all off to the planet he’s sure he’s going to discover … He’d be the host … Along with Musk would be Trump … And then I would put Putin in there. And I would put President Xi. I’d certainly put Netanyahu in there, and his far-right government. Put them all on that spaceship and send them off.”

– Jane Goodall

Apple accuses former Apple Watch staffer of conspiring to steal trade secrets for Oppo (www.theverge.com)
 

I wanted to post this yesterday, but my instance was having issues the entire day. Apologies if this is a repost.

Shi allegedly sent a message to Oppo saying that he was working to “collect as much information as possible” before starting his job. And he searched the internet for terms like “how to wipe out macbook” and “Can somebody see if I’ve opened a file on a shared drive?” from his Apple-issued MacBook before leaving the company.

For someone who is presumably pretty intelligent, this is pretty dumb.

It's amazing to me that we can still find new heavenly bodies within our own solar system in 2025. Not to mention the possibility that we have data that suggests there might be yet another beyond Pluto, but that's still speculative.

Science: one of the only topics that doesn't suck in 2025.

A New Discovery Might Have Just Rewritten Human History (www.404media.co)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/40535172

“What's really interesting about humans and their ancestors is we're a technologically dependent species,” Finestone said. “We rely on tools. We're obligate tool users. We don't do it opportunistically or occasionally the way that a lot of other animals use tools. It's really become ingrained in our way of life, in our survival, and our foraging strategies across all people and all cultures.”

The study of early hominins (our cousins) and the many branches in the path of our evolution is easily my favorite area of science. This topic is evergreen, with new discoveries every year that frequently upend our understanding of the landscape. Dinos and the like are fave number two.

ICE Adds Random Person to Group Chat, Exposes Details of Manhunt in Real-Time (www.404media.co)
 

The person accidentally added to the group chat, which appears to contain six people, said they had no idea why they had received these messages, and shared screenshots of the chat with 404 Media. 404 Media granted the person anonymity to protect them from retaliation.

One of six will not be hard to find… I mean, what?
