Join me on my journey from "how am I a games guy who's intimidated to edit his own BIOS" to "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore"

Seeing the numbers laid out like this really hit me: since I’m surrounded by very techy people, I figured my foot-dragging on upgrading was just me being an 18th century Shaker trapped in the body of a 21st century games journalist. But plenty of people besides me are still happily ("happily") using Windows 10–especially, as 404 points out, schools and other institutions that are now over a barrel if they own machines that aren’t compatible with Windows 11–making this forced change utterly arbitrary and needlessly severe. 404 and others have pointed out the immense amount of e-waste this all stands to create; putting this on schools and government institutions at a time when both are under attack seems like it stands to do nothing but further degrade essential services. And that’s to say nothing of all the individuals who might find themselves feeling squeezed to buy a new computer at a time when money is tighter than ever.

There’s no reason for any of this to be happening the way it is beyond forced obsolescence and for Microsoft to flaunt its useless AI products and pump its bottom line. New OSes happen, but this whole rollout doesn’t need to be going the way it’s going. I’ll admit to finding something grimly comforting in seeing what I thought was just my own inadequacy at computers despite working with them as having at least some systemic roots I can rail at instead of feeling bad about myself. There’s even something inspiring, if not a bit exhausting, in learning there are always new things I can get motivated to fight back against. I'm full of piss and vinegar! I'm alive!

Das Videomodell SORA 2 wurde offensichtlich an Bild- und Tonmaterial der SRG trainiert - siehe die paar Beispiele von mir.

Da das Trainingsmaterial uns allen gehört, bzw. den Gebührenzahlerinnen hoffe ich, die Juristen der SRG haben bei OpenAI bereits für ein Opt-Out angeklopft. Mindestens.

weird how there's a cultural undertone that masturbation is some kinda sad alternative to sex for people who can't "obtain" sex. imo they're almost entirely separate activities with some modest overlap in the mechanics. pvp and pve are both valid

I am speechless by how fast everyone forgot who EA and their games belong to now.

Yes, this IS political.

In my opinion it’s time to retire the Nobel prizes for fields where most of the important discoveries have already been made, like physics, and add prizes for newer fields where substantial innovations occur every year, like speedrunning

So apparently Deloitte had the same idea, they used ChatGPT to produce a report on the Targeted Compliance Framework for Australia's Department of Employment and Workplace Relations (DEWR). Ofc the report was dogshit so DEWR is demanding a refund lmao www.theregister.com/2025/10/06/d...

In general, our insatiable consumerism is what keeps the capitalist wheel turning.

We could have it so much better, but we'd have to change away from our desire of having so much of the latest shit.

"Everyone's an ally until it costs them something." is a phrase I keep thinking about.

I said it back when the wizard game came out a few years back. How people squirmed to justify giving their money to bad people.

It feels like people are all about supporting the left until push comes to shove.

I quickly had a look for Linux options and there seem to be a ton of ways to accomplish, one of the easy ones seems to be Crow Translate. It does OCR locally though, which requires each OCR language to be installed.

For Windows I've found Translumo, that looks kinda cool. Found it by accident.

What OS are you using? I know there's an app a colleague uses on macOS that does this, and I am rather confident something like this also exists on Linux.
