Read the what now?

Oof. That hurts just hearing about it.

Yeah, I know how crazy expensive e-ink is, so I was curious what this dude paid. Dropping 2k on this means you have a lot of cash lying around.

That 32" display is priced as “ask for a quote”, lol.

Lenovo has been offering laptops without Windows for quite some time. I bought one with FreeDOS because I wanted to run Linux over 10 years ago. Really nice that they do that for you now.

Fucking asshole. We really do need to change the way we run businesses. Mainly by removing all billionaires.

The funny thing is that the people who can afford all that overpriced garbage are usually so old, they can’t hear all that well anymore.

Sheer force of will.

These sites are losing domain names left and right at the moment. The fucking copyright mafia is spending a lot of effort at the moment.

Motherfucker.

What’s a boomer shooter?

With modern LED lights I read that it might be better to just keep them on because heat cycling reduces their lifespan, forcing you to replace them and thus costing more money than the electricity would cost.

Oh yes. I do the same. And I often fantasize about telling these dicks that their turn signals are broken.

Katherine Long sounds great. Her second attack, with fake board meeting notes is so dedicated.

10.000 Euro per month? WTF kinda money do you make that you can afford to just pass that much on?

Hoecke Jugend?

Back when I was at uni I had a fellow student from England who complained about the formal you in German. It took him to start learning Japanese to realize it’s really not that bad. In German it used to be that you say Sie to any adult-looking person until you both agreed to use du. At work this is a lot more relaxed now with entire companies stating everybody used du. Makes it much easier and nicer, in my opinion.

I remember when r/ProgrammerHumor was full of hilariously bad UX/UI. There were so many amazing entries.

The mail I got makes it quite clear that you have to opt-in if you’re using a paid version:

Dear JetBrains AI user,

We are notifying you that on October 7, 2025, we will roll out an updated version of the JetBrains AI Terms of Service. The main change is in the data sharing clause. Previously we said we wouldn’t use your inputs, data, outputs, or suggestions to train AI models. This is still the case, unless you explicitly allow us to do so.

• For individuals using JetBrains IDEs with commercial licenses, free trials, free community licenses, or EAP builds who do not explicitly consent to the new data collection model – nothing changes.
• For companies that are unwilling or, for legal reasons, unable to opt in to the program – nothing changes either, and their admins remain in full control.

Important to note that the data sharing is OFF by default on all types of JetBrains IDEs licenses except for non-commercial tier until you change the settings explicitly.

For more details about the change, please read this blog post.

Other updates to the JetBrains AI Terms of Service reflect some recent changes to the JetBrains AI service. For example, JetBrains AI can now be used not only with JetBrains products, but also with selected third-party products. The service also includes a new feature that allows you to upload various content for indexing.

For the existing users, the updates will take effect on October 7, 2025. By using JetBrains AI after this date, you agree to the updated JetBrains AI Terms of Service.

Highlight by me. Personally, I don’t see a reason to be outraged. I’ve even used their AI products and they’re OK. They can take over dumb tasks or help me not having to look up documentation.
