Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Dell's CES 2026 chat was the most pleasingly un-AI briefing I've had in maybe 5 years

I have a 2018 XPS and its build quality is quite good.

Business lines are like that, see also Thinkpad.

Yea, wife and I are still running 2017 XPS, no issues at all over all these years and travels

My wife loves her 2019 2-in-1 but it took like 6 months for all the feet and things to start falling off.

I love my 2021 xps. Thin, light, powerful, and good Linux support. It's starting to show its age but I use the hell out of it.

The only reason next laptop won't be an XPS is because the owners went full maga. If the decision was hardware based, I'd probably go xps again.

The plastic coating on mine has gone all sticky.

The palm rest on mine is a little tacky, that's a good point. I might have to try to wipe the soft-touch coating off with some isopropanol.
