A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

So, which butthole did you pull your code, copy, or image from today? 🙂

Ich bin cornholio! I need TP for my bunghole!

Because AI is going to fuck us in the ass with no protection.

The dark-mode switch at the top of the article:

I'm surprised they didn't mention the Izze logo:

Maybe they're all designed by Pootie Shoe

I think he just goes by Pootie now

because ai is the modern equivalent of goatse

Because the people who own the company are buttholes.

The guy who wrote the article watches too much porn. The more you watch and see and experience something, the more you will see it everywhere.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Subliminal messaging.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Because they ran out of logos that look like all-seeing robotic eyes

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

What's the Walmart logo doing in there?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Funny that they praise Slack’s “hashtag inspired logo” when they replaced the original angular one with circular symmetry that looks like a penis swastika.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

"Penis swastika" is spot on.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

They all used ai to make their logos

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago

Because the only thing coming out of them is shit?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

Manus joined the room…

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago

Only one of those looks like any butthole I've ever seen. Now I wanna see the buttholes whoever wrote this has seen.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Hmm. Reductionist design probably has gone too far if you start to require radial symmetry.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You either die a startup, or live long enough to see yourself become the butthole.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

today we are all buttholes

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Something something about showing connections between points in a circle... the chocolate starfish of life.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Except only one does here.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 days ago

You need to broaden your horizons. There's more to life than cute Hentai buttholes.

Althought, I guess I can see not wanting to acknowlege prolapse and so many other horrors some of these represent.

That's what I was thinking. Maybe they're just Community fans.

.. Should we be pinching our nipples at their AI?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

They all wish they were as clever, funny, and efficient as GLaDOS

e pluribus anus

[–] [email protected] 43 points 5 days ago (1 children)

A company's logo should be evocative of their strengths. So suggesting they, principally, shit all over everything is apt.

[–] [email protected] 95 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I can't stop laughing.

No single person suggests making a logo that resembles an anus, but when everyone's feedback gets incorporated, that's what often emerges.

  • 1990s-2000s: 3D and Glossy - Remember when every logo needed a drop shadow and a glassy shine? Apple's aqua interface set the standard.
  • 2010-2013: Skeuomorphism - Digital designs mimicking physical objects, with stitched leather textures and realistic dials.
  • 2013-2018: Flat Design - Reaction to skeuomorphism brought minimal, clean interfaces with bright colors and no shadows.
  • 2018-2022: Neomorphism - Soft shadows and semi-flat design creating subtle, "touchable" interfaces.
  • 2022-Present: The Butthole Era

I give this post 3.5 buttholes.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 5 days ago

Somehow Walmart is leading innovation, launching a butthole logo in '07. Truly ahead of their time.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 5 days ago (3 children)

This is one of the rare cases where reading the article would probably ruin a perfectly good headline. lol

I just find it remarkable that not only the shape of Claude's logo is what it is, they also went with that particular color for it. Chef's kiss.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I thought so too, but the article really delivered. I didn't know I was living in The Butthole Era. I suspected it, but I didn't know it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

Even before I saw another user pull out some hilarious excerpts, I was gonna read it later Now I'm definitely going to.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

It’s a good article too :)
