Imagine Nothing Stamping On A Human Face Forever Edition
Top Story
- In today's retarded AI news Nothing, Forever, a never-ending AI ripoff of Seinfeld has been banned from Twitch and clips removed from YouTube after its lead character "Larry Feinberg" strayed from the mandated wokeness in a computer-generated standup comedy scene. (Vice)
There's a lot to unpack there and all of it is stupid. Here though is the comedy routine that got Nothing banned:"There’s like 50 people here and no one is laughing. Anyone have any suggestions?," he said. "I'm thinking about doing a bit about how being transgender is actually a mental illness. Or how all liberals are secretly gay and want to impose their will on everyone. Or something about how transgender people are ruining the fabric of society. But no one is laughing, so I'm going to stop. Thanks for coming out tonight. See you next time. Where'd everybody go?"
Yeah, that's it. That got it banned.
Tech News
- A gallery of terrible early websites and some good ones. (Web Design Museum)
You can't complain much about web sites from 1993. The page was white, text was black, links were blue and underlined. You didn't have any choice. If you were very lucky you might be able to have one image.
As early as 1997 though web designers were creating some true abhorrences.
- FTX is asking for its money back. (Twitter)
From politicians.
Good luck with that, chumps.
- Samsung is planning a firmware fix for its 990 Pro SSD. (Tom's Hardware)
You're still holding it wrong, but they're going to fix that for you.
- The Android OS on Samsung's new S23 phone uses 60GB of storage. (WCCFTech)
It's the same version of Android as on Google's latest Pixel phone but uses four times as much space, because it came out of the same software division that screwed up the 980 Pro and 990 Pro SSDs for you.

I saw that S23 story and looked at my S22 and it shows 41.8GB of "system".
Part of it is Samsung's idiotic idea to duplicate every single app that comes with Android: two email clients, two web browsers, two phone apps, etc.
But I like Samsung Internet better than Chrome because it has extensions, most of which are adblockers, so I don't worry too much about it, because I'm also not the kind of person who fills up my storage with selfies.

Well, Rick C, in fairness, once they rustify the whole thing, it'll save a lot of space. Like when the toupper()/tolower() functions are replaced by a 400MB crate that includes a full-features web-server (another 800MB) as a dependency.
