Fusion 360 has the worst user interface in the entire world, with the exception of every other CAD tool which is an even bigger pile of absolute shit made by utter sadists.

So if we cannot buy even HDDs, what will we store our digital data on? DVD-R(W)s?

Western Digital is already sold out of hard drives for all of 2026 — chief says some long-term agreements for 2027 and 2028 already in place
Will HDDs follow RAM and SSDs when it comes to price increases?

You can get custom plushie dolls made, but it's quite expensive.
That's definitely a business opportunity mass producing tech CEO voodoo dolls, IMO. Someone should get on that.

Every time your 5 year old Windows install says "let's finish setting up your PC" to try to trick you into using Edge, Bing, OneDrive, Defender and Microsoft Backup and instead of doing that it "recommends" you shout "fuck off!" and stick another nail in the Satya Nadella voodoo doll for that floor.
Can you think of examples where people use technologies differently from what the developers intended, whether unintentionally or as an act of resistance?

The technology isn't improving and the problems with it are inherent in how it works, so the idea that it doesn't work yet but will in 3 years is completely delusional.

These grub screws on Stern’s shaker motors seem to use hex heads, but have a bizarre size. Larger than 2.5mm but smaller than 3mm.
Presumably some fucked-up imperial nonsense like 38 and a 3rd of 123 and 7 10ths of a half-inch.
I’d adjusted it before and eventually found a torx bit that worked OK.

Swear to god, so many of these uber rich guys who keep trying to intellectualize and sanitize white supremacy really are the dumbest motherfuckers alive. They constantly say word salad-y nonsense like this that would cause them to fail a fourth grade US history test.
This odious white supremacist needs to learn some history.
Not so long ago, it was common to see "Irish need not apply" in job listings in the United States. You know, the same type of pernicious prejudice that Elon exhibits regularly.

This little rail looks like it's made of metal, but it is actually the most bouncy substance known to man. I would buy shoes made out of whatever this deceptive thing is made of.

Music should be listed in credits, including TV shows. Even if it's just one line for each song/composition.
That or PC keyboards should have a Shazam button.

The John Wick series is so effective because it fully embodies the three major tenets of dumb guy fantasy: 1. being able to kick anyone’s ass, 2. living by a code of honor, and 3. paying for things with gold coins

I think YouTubers should have to declare their views on Elon Musk.
It would save a lot of time if we could know the ones who still buy into his nonsense and are too stupid to work out, even now, that he's a habitual liar and bullshitter, and avoid ever watvching their videos.
