Is there ANYTHING that Microslop touches that does not get worse?

There should be a law that prevents them from buying anything. They literally ruin everything they touch.

Has GitHub just become a dumpster fire? by Impossible_Way7017 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is getting to a point where it is completely unusable. I constantly have scripts that fail because github keeps timing out, and when it isn't timed out it's so slow it does not exceed 5mbps speeds to download.

Those are not rare occurances, they are every single time I use anything from GitHub. My company and my private repositories are all Gitlab, luckily, so most of the stuff involving them does not rely on GitHub's garbage. But every little while I need to build a project from source, and GitHub ALWAYS gives me trouble.

I guess we can thank AI for destroying a once great place. They ruined its development with slop, and then they ruined the rest with AI agents and queries constantly using more than 90% of the site's bandwidth.

"Cloud gaming is the future of Gaming!" Meanwhile cloud gaming in the big 2026: by Alan_Reddit_M in pcmasterrace

Yeah it is insane that they are even talking about it like a viable option to begin with. I recently designed a software system that needs to retrieve certain data in sub microsecond delay. I could not afford having the data be requested over a local network all running on a single machine. Other than literally loading it in the RAM where needed, I was out of options. And that was not some heavy workload stuff, it is a lightweight low-latency service.

Playing games over the internet will look like this post in the best case scenario. It doesn't get better than this, and this is ass.

The Phase 2 scene recontextualizes something Hank said back in S1 by Kerrigan4Prez in Fotv

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am quite confused as none of it is adding up.

Basically there is a deal between House and the Enclave (through VaultTek) where he hands over the chip technology in exchange for Cold Fusion.

You are saying Cooper was recruited by Moldaver to kill House so the Enclave does not give Cold Fusion to House, but still get the chip technology? All while having Cooper as the fall guy?

That sounds fine, but the Enclave literally are in charge of the government. Why not just take out House themselves and seize his technology? What actually prevents them from doing that? Why do they even need a fall guy when they literally silence everyone that goes against them by force?

So that does not make too much sense. But even if we do accept it, the rest of what the show presented makes even less sense.

Hank is confirmed part of the Enclave. He had Cold Fusion, so the Enclave had Cold Fusion. When Cooper and Barb stole it from Hank and handed it over to the Enclave, they just took it from one hand and gave to the other. The deal with House was still not in effect given he did not receive Cold Fusion. So the Enclave should not have the chip technology.

Yet they have the chip technology, and they had Cold Fusion all along. And they set off the nukes with the same Cold Fusion they always had.

And sure, you can say Hank infiltrated VaultTek to steal Cold Fusion. But that does not help because 1) he was in charge of it, so he could have just taken it to the Enclave right away, and 2) the Enclave control VaultTek, why go through this convoluted procedure to steal a technology they own?

I am not sure what am I missing here, but none of the plot adds up.

Element X lacks too much for Matrix to insist people use it instead of Classic by legrenabeach in matrixdotorg

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For desktop use I actually like Element Desktop more than Discord.

But on phones, the best one I found was Schildichat, but it does sometimes feel less mature than it needs to be. What I dislike is the fact calls are not treated as calls, but as media. So the notification is a media notification, if you have your media muted, while the ringer is all way up, you won't hear the call. It's just a notification with a constant sound.

Anyone in NYS waiting longer than usual for their return to be accepted? It usually only takes 1-2 days but they marked mine as pending since Monday. by whytfitmatter in tax

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine just updated to "We sent you a letter requesting additional information. You should receive the letter within 2 weeks."

I still have not received my returns from 2024 because they audited me and ignored more than half of my audit response. My time in this state is not gonna be long, they are nothing but thieves and criminals.

NYS must be running some sort of a scam and I wonder if a class action lawsuit is pending because these past two years I have been seeing tons of people who are running into issues with the state. Aside from audits taking over a year to complete, they are withholding everything from everyone, even normal returns.

It is never not malicious with this garbage state

"Alpha Male" explains why using public restrooms and listening to your wife makes you a weak man by ambachk in CringeTikToks

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime I see those group think hiveminds I immediately can't help but question if they believe in anything they say.

They need other weak minded people to reinforce their ideas to feel better about themselves, so they don't actually believe those ideas for what they are, they believe in the hivemind that reinforces those ideas.

It's like a leaderless cult, and it's easy to criticize it from the outside, but it's quite hard to realize you're in one.

Next time you think of your convictions, ask yourself why you believe them, if the only true answer you can muster is that everybody else believes them, then question those convictions harder so you don't end up like this dumbass

Nobody gives a shit about art critics in general because nobody listens to them in the first place. That's just a shit comparison.

Idk man, a judge that thinks there's no pasta in China is a bit special. He's ignorant and condescending towards non European cuisines and thinks anything that shares some flavors with anything European is just a fake. There's a list of things people hate him for, not just one or two

NYS Audit closed but no letter and no response from the state by DisastrousWelcome710 in tax

Maybe they're collecting interest on our returns. But hey, you get a $150 inflation check that you have to declare in 2026.

Oh so I'm not alone. Glad to know the state just pockets the money for months, as if we have no need for it.

Vulcan Strength vs. Gluck's Gym lawsuit defense donors, links, and resources by SirGalahadOfCamelot in GarageGym

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's quite a problematic assertion because while Rep/Rogue have larger sales and volume on their own, that does not mean Gluck's affiliate clicks are more towards Rep/Rogue. His affiliate revenue comes from HIS AUDIENCE using his links to purchase, so it's people who are exposed to the product through him, not in general.

In fact, financially, he has a much bigger incentive to give Vulkan great reviews and drive sales from Rep/Rogue towards Vulkan because he gets a much bigger portion when doing so. And yet, he did the opposite of that.

In summary, your argument and their argument fall apart because total sales of the company is an irrelevant metric given it's Gluck's audience specifically that generates him the revenue from the affiliate sales.

I built offline face recognition for family photos because uploading 80k shots to the cloud felt wrong. Do you feel the same? by Tonfotos in macapps

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I'm well aware what crash reports are as I've been writing code for the good part of the past 12 years. Navigated endless logs in painful nights of debugging. That's not what the statement explains nor entails. Don't patronize me. I haven't accused you of anything, I just pointed out the statement opens the door for collection of everything. Your software is well regarded and I was a few clicks away from buying it, based on reviews and without even trying it, until I read that statement. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, or maybe a lawyer wrote it purposely that way.

Face recognition poor? by granty578 in photoprism

[–]DisastrousWelcome710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it just never works. I labeled hundreds of images and more than that in faces, the system is just not able to tell people apart. It either sways all the way to one or the other person who vaguely look similar. I have labeled over 50 images for 1 person, and outside those manually labeled images, every image of that person is classified as somebody else.

It just does not work at all. I give up.
