Actually a company, run by Sumit Kumar Maitra. But here mostly for memes. Most posts/reposts are likely to be tech, left leaning socialist views or angry rants… and cats… I was a dog person until I got a cat!

you ever write code so inefficient you have to secure 80% of the world’s DRAM production

Windows laptops now wake up from hibernation mode if you go stand in front of it! F*cking Satya Nadella doesn’t pay my electricity bills does he! Creepy as fuck!!!

Note to cis people:

If you watch and support Harry Potter series, you are funding the anti-trans crusade that is killing people like me and stripping away our rights. Experts have warned that in the US and UK the steps toward genocide against trans people are accelerating.

I ask:

Do you care more about nostalgia of fictional people?

or

Do you care about actual people like myself and our right to exist in society like you?

This isn't a trick question. Do the right thing please. #trans

#HailMary was a cute movie! Not Interstellar level, but better than Gravity imo!
@neil are you aware of any laws new or existing that makes using your home address for running a single person company, a business address for service providers like electricty/gas etc.? Octopus is refusing to accept my home address for Heatpump installation!

A man used LLMs to generate hundreds of thousands of "songs", then used bots to stream them billions of times, to collect $8m in royalties. https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/north-carolina-man-pleads-guilty-music-streaming-fraud-aided-artificial-intelligence-0 Is there a better metaphor for late-stage capitalism than burning resources to make songs that are never listened to, then steaming them to robots that will never hear them, ad infinitum?

My Wife: I’ve seen reports that bears are up and about. Time to bring in the feeder.

Me: Seems awfully early.

My Wife: You said that last year.

Me: I did? Ok, after the weekend.

My Wife: That’s EXACTLY what you said last year. And then when did the bear eat our feeder?

Me: Errr… like Monday night I think.

My Wife: No, it was Sunday morning.

Me: We’ll compromise. How about Saturday night?

SATURDAY, 6:30pm
Me: I took the feeder in. See, no bears.

10 minutes later…
