  • My daughter hates people who talk with food in their mouths. I mean, really hates it with glaring 'I'm gonna bite your head off and spit down your neck' kinda stare. I try not to answer her if I have a mouth full of nosh but she also gives a very similar stare to anyone who doesn't answer her straight away.

  • I blame the parents;)

  • People just don't get LLMs ("AI").

    They have no concept of truth. They just produce text that is statistically similar to other text that exists in the world. That's it. That's all they do. It doesn't push anything at you. You ask it for some randomly generated text that is similar to other text in the world, and it randomly generates some text.

    If you're playing Monopoly and you roll a dice and land on someone's hotel and go bankrupt, the dice hasn't done anything wrong

  • I hate 2FA screens where Enter doesn't work to submit the code.

    Paypal, you cunts, I don't have time to type a number in then find the mouse to click your cunting Submit button. You know what a keyboard is, you cunts? The same place where the numbers came from has its own fucking Submit button! Fuck me! How about you use that eh? Software developers are such cunts.

  • other text that exists in the world

    should read

    other content which exists in its knowledge, having been collected, filtered and classified by its human owners.

  • I hate 2FA screens where Enter doesn't work to submit the code.

    Login screens where the Tab key doesn't take you from the username/email entry to the password entry. NS&I website, you fucking suck.

    Likewise, DoB fields which dont let you type dd/mm/yyyy and you're forced to click through a fucking calendar entry.

  • Ebay... 3 "are you human" verifications. One to login to bid, one after I've won an item and go to pay and another one after I've paid for a fucking item and return to ebay. Are you fucking thick? Software developers are such cunts

    (and I'm still not human so your checks are shit!)

  • this morninig Facebook has been making me verify my business profile, emailing me a code, but not progressing to show me the field where i can put the code in. that's been fun

  • NS&I website

    error: 'holder number' isn't the same as 'account number' or 'online ID' or 'username' or 'email'

    intensifies

  • Security systems that email a code that expires more quickly than Gmail can reliably pull it from my domain's mail server.

  • 2FA systems that send via SMS, but expire before the SMS is received.

    And don't have an option to use your own 2FA app.

  • 2FA systems that send via SMS

    You should have stopped there.

    My daughter's WhatsApp account was taken over 2 weeks ago. She couldn't receive the SMS messages to recover it until she had rebooted her phone. I can't prove it but it seems like someone had diverted SMSs to her with an SS7 hack. I thought that was hard enough that you had to be high value target but apparently not anymore.

    If you haven't already turn on two step verification within WhatsApp (settings, account).

  • 3 "are you human" verifications.
    ...
    Are you fucking thick?

  • I hate that prick January moocher who dumps all the Xmas lights into a box in a big tangled up mess.

  • That dude is rightly called out in the comments for the sponsorship conflict of interest - something he makes worse with the blatant and hamfisted placement of of the sponsor in his video - but it's also quite dishonest. He's slapped together a bunch of semi-related and long-known things (like the unpaid training of AI systems) and used them to argue for something larger that he doesn't even try to prove, while selectively quoting from documents and inserting carefully snipped videos to try and make it look as if other people are agreeing with him when they were actually having a different conversation. Find more honest sources. I mean, Google are evil but how about offering some actual technical information and not just "Wooooah, spooky, watch this graph measring something go up!".

  • Couldn’t agree more.
    She was adopted at birth.
    If she ever shows an interest in tracing her family I will be dead against it.
    As my dear mother used to say:
    There’s not substitute for breeding ….. you little bastard.

  • Apologies for the shitty vid; didn't realise it was so crap

  • Yeah, I block unnecessary stuff but I can't avoid this shit when logging into certain services.

  • I just read the comments. I've not watched the vid yet. Any domain that's loaded that's not explicitly needed for the function of the site is an opportunity for harvesting user data.
    I mean, just run ad blockers, tracker blockers and see what they're blocking on sites you visit.
    Same as NetGuard on Android.

  • I sometimes get captchas on Google search when using a VPN but I can just open another tab and do the same search and it then has no captchas.

  • Any domain that's loaded that's not explicitly needed for the function of the site is an opportunity for harvesting user data.

    Surveillance capitalism doing its thing. Whatever capitalism does the "whatever" relentlessly and without restraint until there's no more profit to be squeezed. Doesn't need a conspiracy - shared common interest works doubly for greedy bastards. But the Toober is adding made up things he thinks might happen, some of which are just technically wrong.

  • I hate USB-C.

  • Yeah ps2 and VESA 4lyf
