It's comedy gold, so you should care. Comedy pyrite for me.

Time to try again to laugh it off! Who said dupes are bad? (It's only potentially funny until the stock market overreacts and wipes out lots of smiles.)

So a thinking man goes bald from the front. A great lover goes bald from the top. Jensen Huang is going bald from the front and top because he thinks he's a great lover.

Two angels are talking:
"Why is gawd in such a foul mood today?"
"He thinks he's Jensen Huang thinking that he's Elon Musk."

Needs an STD joke here as a linkage to the doctor joke... Left as an exercise for the reader, because I don't know enough about sex, so I have to jump directly to Huang's visit to the doctor:

"Doc, what does it mean when I have vivid dreams about searching for a urinal?"
"Depends."

Gimme Funny! Pretty please and all that jizz? [sic]

Then the YOB had to go and top all of my combined best efforts with the brilliant quip about Tim Apple nee Cook taking over at NVIDIA. Terrible fathers make the best = worst dad jokes?

But I still didn't get a Funny mod point, even for my longer effort at what was then the end of the discussion. The bald doctor bit... Followed by a sick Jobs attempt, but that turd is still fresh so maybe it will get the Funny?

Definitely not gonna hold my breath waiting for better moderation, however.

Eh? Who to about what?

What? My very best effort and I didn't even get a Funny?

After the first joke I should have transitioned to a joke with the punchline "Gawd thinks he's Jensen Huang imagining that he's Elong [sic] Musk." Then a segue joke about STDs leading into the doctor joke.

Doesn't matter. Because the YOB already topped me with the joke about Tim Apple nee Cook taking over as head of NVIDIA. Even though I have a better idea: Steve Jobs. They can use all this AI to create a GAIvatar of Jobs and run all management questions past the GAIvatar. After lighting the appropriate amounts of incense, of course.

Too bad and unfunny that all my humor is so weakly derivative. Bad dad humor is predictive of poor parenting skills? "Not that I know of!!

If a man goes bald from the front, then he's a great thinker. If he goes bald from the top then he's a great lover. Huang is going bald from the top and front because he thinks he's a great lover.

Huang went to see his doctor the other day:

"Doc, what's it mean when I'm having vivid dreams of desperately searching for a urinal?"

"Depends."

I'm here all week. I recommend the Uzbeki piilaf.

Okay, change my attempted joke to "We live in a post-morality world" and mod parent Funny.

Though your number is wrong. Or you have a specific example in mind? Most of the example cases I can think of in recent history involve at least hundreds of thousands of deaths. But most people aren't like that, as evidenced by the missing hood emblems... So there are still some traces of morality among us.

We live in a post-ethics world. What are they complaining about?

I also have no idea what sort of vacuousness would lead to the original Subject. Is the OP perhaps claiming that's the only way he ever got laid? Then the attempted joke could make some sort of sense? But I think I'm the passed master of failed joke attempts, and I have no idea. (Versus the past master? Because I was an email postmaster a couple of times?)

But the Microsoft forums were quite useful. At first.

Greedy bastards always have to gut the golden-egg goose.

So there's this well known chronic and fatal condition known as TMB. Already getting to me even though I don't self-identify that way... Too Many Birthdays covers all the bases.

And now we have TMC as in Too Much Complexity for lowly humans to deal with.

But what actually interested me in this story is tangential. (Of course.) I am guessing that this is the same Notion that was introduced to me by an AI-driven phishing scam. The first celebrity impersonation that had me going for a couple of rounds of email. This particular scam was driven off of YouTube on the rather cunning theory that people who comment on celebrity videos might be suckers for "related projects" that spin off of the videos. I wasn't as soft a target as hoped, but "Live and let spam" from the google and friends almost always saves the scammers from jail. But my current theory is that Notion is basically legit but the reason the scammer recommended it was probably because it was his tool for managing the scam. (Perhaps a team or gang of scammers, since I've noticed a couple of similar-enough attempts since then.)

So have you seen anything like that and want to share notes? Or maybe you want more specific tips and cautions? (As if Slashdot was still such a communication channel.)

Please enable and use a spelling checker.

But mostly I think the entire discussion needs more consideration of the supposed economic safety and profitability of producing cheap sequels, which is most of how I'm interpreting this story. Another example would involve the publishing industry, but Amazon has made that moot...

Why is this moderated "Funny" rather than "Informative". Or maybe Slashdot needs a "Historical" mod?

I know that Slashdot can't fix anything these decades, but I wish the Funny tab would show any post that has received at least one Funny mod point... "Dream on", said the old fool.

Best of the three jokes but I was hoping for more. A previous Huang story was quite productive of Funny.

Only joke? And a rather weak effort.

The story had so much potential for Funny.

No, so I guess that means I agree with you on that part of it? I think the problem is that we basically surrendered on the idea that we could detect the gun irrespective of whether it was smoking or not. Not sure if "we" should be limited to America or extended to the rest of the world. Or maybe even extremely limited to security experts.

Maybe I need a disclaimer that I am not an official security expert of any sort, just a somewhat educated bystander. My initial approaches involved considering hardware features that would be of use in supporting software-based attacks in the least traceable ways. In other words, the device would not contain any sort of gun until AFTER the target was identified and appropriate attack software was downloaded. And even better if the software would go away whenever not needed... However we seem to have reached a similar sad state of affairs via our smartphones, so WtH.
