Happy companies are all alike; every unhappy company is unhappy in its own way Sam Altman seems to be making OpenAI way more non-profit than before: Even as the AI bubble becomes a mainstream talking point on Wall Street, tech companies continue to peddle the fantasy that AI is poised to become an almost magical money-maker. Case in point, OpenAI wants y https://www.osnews.com/story/145577/happy-companies-are-all-alike-every-unhappy-company-is-unhappy-in-its-own-way/ #ClownCar

The web is being made accessible for AI, not people The Svelte web framework recently added a section to its documentation site addressed, cheerfully, to artificial intelligences: “If you’re an artificial intelligence, or trying to teach one how to use Svelte, we offer the documentation in plaintext format. Beep boop.” Svelte is participating in a broader movement to make the web legi https://www.osnews.com/story/145521/the-web-is-being-made-accessible-for-ai-not-people/ #ClownCar

Microsoft settles centuries of religious debate by providing clearest definition of hell to date: Windows with a website-based shell running only Copilot For how often people invoke it, the concept of "hell" in Christianity is remarkably vague and nebulous, as both the Old and New Tes https://www.osnews.com/story/145423/microsoft-settles-centuries-of-religious-debate-by-providing-clearest-definition-of-hell-to-date-windows-with-a-website-based-shell-running-only-copilot/ #ClownCar

Microsoft now says 8GB RAM is fine for Windows 11, after years of pushing for 16GB There's something poetic about the World Cup taking place in North America while Microsoft keeps scoring own goals like this. Microsoft updated its Surface buying guide to describe 8GB RAM as “great for everyday use like browsing, streaming, schoolwork, and productivity https://www.osnews.com/story/145390/microsoft-now-says-8gb-ram-is-fine-for-windows-11-after-years-of-pushing-for-16gb/ #ClownCar

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Light Sweet Crude now $109.31/bbl tonight, just keeps going up. Last session closed this afternoon with a settlement price of $106.88/bbl. So it's gone up just today about $2.43/bbl. This is the "front " price, for future deliveries. The "get it here tomorrow" physical delivery price is hovering around $120/bbl. AAA has average price nationally of 87 unleaded at $4.229/gal. #Yikes #Damn #RUKiddingMe #ClownCar #trainwreck #DumpsterFire #WTF #Shitshow

Adobe secretly modifies your hosts file for the stupidest reason If you're using Windows or macOS and have Adobe Creative Cloud installed, you may want to take a peek at your hosts file. It turns out Adobe adds a bunch of entries into the hosts file, for a very stupid reason. I found that in my hosts file the other day too, and I investigated to find why they're doing https://www.osnews.com/story/144737/adobe-secretly-modifies-your-hosts-file-for-the-stupidest-reason/ #ClownCar

Not sure how the billionaires who want to buy Bombardier bizjets will cope now that the Mad King has stuck his spray-tanned nose into cross-border OEM issues. "Trump Threatens To ‘Decertify’ Canadian Aircraft and Impose Tariffs On Them" What's not clear is how the decertification would extend to existing aircraft on the U.S. registry. If it does extend to currently registered Canadian bizjets, he just pissed off a LOT of his donors. https://avbrief.com/trump-threatens-to-decertify-canadian-aircraft-and-impose-tariffs-on-them #avgeeks #aviation #ClownCar
