  • Touchscreens were never popular with customers. Manufacturers kept cramming touchscreens in cars and using them to control everything becuase they were being stupid with new tech.

    Edit: I guess I should have been clearer. I was talking about as a replacement for tactile controlls in a car like the article is talking about. Reverse cameras and other things that are good to have a touch screen for make perfect sense but using your touch screen to control your Air conditioning in a way that you have to divert your attention from the road to operate sliders and buttons on a touch screen is dumb as hell.










  • I figured out how to do it fairly quickly but it would be a hell of a lot easier if people could just type in “11700K” in a box on a web page or something and it could just tell them. Or they could have added a little bit of code to their CPU ID utility that says “yupp your processor is effected by the flaw”. I am mostly annoyed at all this not for me but for all the people who would read those pages and the contents would seem like an insane foreign language to them all while articles are telling them it’s a major security flaw that would allow people to steal their encryption keys.


  • Every article is a copy paste of the same bullshit talking about the vulnerability and pointing to the stupid cryptic list of processors that requires you to jump through hoops to read it. You can’t just search for your processor in a database I mean fuck that would take them at least an a couple hours of their precious time to set up and they have only had a year. How do you fix it? Why with a microcode update of course!!..from where you ask? Well don’t worry just look at the cryptic list it will tell you if you need a microcode update!!

    Fuck every article about this shit. Anyone wanna bust an Eli5 on how to fix this problem for people? (I was assuming it’s a BIOS update but the articles have only confused me further)





  • No no you don’t understand. If it’s not a complex plot to destroy Twitter then Elon is actually trying and that means he is a narcissistic moron who is running Twitter into the ground. That couldn’t be true because Elon built rockets and invented the Tesla all by himself without any help from the shit ton of engineers with advanced degrees and skills that Elon doesn’t have that work at Elon’s companies. Elon just hired all those people so he would have and audience of people around that were smart enough to watch, understand and enjoy while Elon did all the work.

    Oh it’s real. It’s part of Musk’s whole stupid “X the everything app” bullshit he has been talking about for years. He is a huge moron. I mean the first sentence in the description of the site for his new company xAI is: “xAI is a new company founded by Elon Musk that sets out to understand the universe” …he is such a fuckin loser.

    Imma make a company called yAI and our goal is going to be to solve all the problems everyone has ever had. Don’t ask me how yet because that doesn’t matter but the solutions will involve AI and my genius ability to solve all the problems. All banks give me money now please thank you.
