Oh, I’ll tell you when I’ve had enough!

Huh. Didn’t know that!

The technology uses nickel and iron clusters smaller than 5 nanometers, meaning 10,000 to 20,000 clusters could fit within the width of a human hair.

By using these dimensions, the researchers increased the electrode surface area, allowing almost every atom to participate in the chemical reaction. This efficiency enables the battery to reach a full charge in seconds rather than the seven hours required by historical versions of the technology.

Link shortening, as a different example. Thankfully it finally sort of died. Pre-loading is another. Tiktok is uploading before the file is saved, is another.

URL previews - another thing we warned about for, oh yeah, this reason

Safety is on the trigger. As genius would have it

It . . is Texas.

Obviously not.

Also, IPO incoming, expect it to get worse.

Is it? Ah, well that would explain it.

Discord probably did the math and are willing to take a hit to the user counts

I very much doubt whoever thought about doing the math did so, and if they did, that said math made it out of their department. This kind of decision is much more likely to have been a C-suite darling that no one dared speak against or the equivalent thereof.

I’m saying thoughtful organizational decisions are less common than we’d like.

That’s true. And the reason is most people - still, in 2026 - can’t figure out how computers work. Not that they try to. It’s a low-level social madness that causes catastrophic global changes.

Maybe. That’d be an easy goodbye though.

Stoats are awesome.

Not if I read it correctly: not uploading anything (and fuck you Discord) means I won’t get invited to view adult content, right? That’s it? And we’ll all be teens forever?

Pfft. Whatever.

Now what sort of unethical corporate greed machine would do that?

. . . All of them?

Oh. Oh dear.

Ever since they hired a cop to develop copware and their social media genius told us to go fuck ourselves (and their non-apology) they’ve been dead.

ICE also uses AI-powered apps to analyze social media activity and other digital data points to create “life profiles” for people of interest.

The agency has spent at least $5 million on Tangles, a sophisticated tool developed by a company with ties to Israel’s cyber-intelligence community, Forbes reported in September. Tangles mines social media posts, event sign-ups, mobile contacts, location data and more to create nuanced individual portraits and tease out patterns of activity — including organizing and protest — in specific places.

This has always been the goal of facebook. Everything like it falls in that bucket. For the eleventy billionth time, Get the fuck off of them.

Man I had no idea she was a batshit asshole.

Oh, no wait - no, yeah I knew that.
