Take a cold bath?

Who said anything about giving things away? You just made that up. What, you think immigrants are stealing your jobs and also not paying rent? That’s not how thing work in the real world. The only people getting your stuff are the prisons full of innocent people who just wanted a chance at a better life.

Remember, if you want to let other people move, it also automatically gives them the legal right to steal your house and leave you homeless. That’s why I’m living under a bridge while a family from Mississippi has taken my house. Its okay though. They were born on the plot of dirt between Canada and Mexico, so really that means they’re defending my freedom by stealing my house.

Those look like pretty thin slices. They might work. I’d also try it.

Until someone figures out a better way of doing it that’s not a real answer. I’m not going to pay for every website that gets shared on every website I regularly visit. Even if I wanted to, I just don’t have that kind of money.

I don’t know how to fix this, but it is fundamentally broken.

Seriously? The old core i7 870 (not a typo) I have in my closet meets the requirements? Adding the watermark for CPUs older than that just seems mean-spirited.

I’m pretty sure the reason is that the hole isn’t deep enough for it to matter. That’s nowhere near big enough to be a manhole.

If that were an actual manhole you’d be right, but its obviously not.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like you once. Lemmy here is my nice little hole. If you think anything happening here is going to change the world you are delusional. Go somewhere with people who can and will do things.

They won’t. I fought for decades, and all I got for my troubles was a heart attack and a world that’s worse than when I started.

I’ve heard that one before. I’m rooting for you and all, but it ain’t really happening that way.

Well if the CEO of clouds says it, it must be true!

I know ad rates and metrics are heavily based around click through, but does it even actually matter? I mean, TV ads are big money expensive, and nobody has ever clicked on those. I guess if you’re advertising a shitty mobile game or something then it matters, but does McDonalds or whatever even want you to buy a hamburger before you watch a YouTube video? That doesn’t really make a lot of sense.

This just fundamentally doesn’t understand what artificial general intelligence means. It’s not a fancy way of saying “human but smarter”. That’s just wrong. It’s an artificial intelligence that’s good at a lot of different things. You know. General. Someday, if we live long enough, we will create an AI capable of figuring things out that it wasn’t designed for and we didn’t teach it. Maybe that will be tomorrow. Maybe it’s still centuries away. It’s actually really hard to figure out how long it will take us. Making a really good text generation algorithm doesn’t make the concept of learning more than one thing obsolete though. And predicting what text goes in a bar exam after being given a massive sample of bar exams isn’t the same thing as learning to be a lawyer.

Tech bros with more money than sense suing each other over terms they don’t understand is not a rational system to base research off of, and we should ignore them.

I mean, I’m all for giving jobs to humans and all, but isn’t monitoring a bunch of numbers and sending an alert when they go wrong one of the few things computers are actually objectively better at than humans are?

Edit: Holy crap people. I understand that they’re probably not there for that purpose. That was the entire point I was trying to make. You don’t ALL need to point out the obvious to me.

I’m generally pretty much in agreement with the idea that online services are crap because you don’t really own the things you buy, but honestly I’ve been buying physical media since the 80s and pirating since the 90s, and the oldest games I currently have easy access to are ones I bought on Steam. I’m not a collector or an archivist or anything. Those just aren’t hobbies that interest me, and I move a lot, and don’t always take care of my stuff, and freely lend things to unreliable friends, and frequently wipe my drives to try out new Linux distros, so at this point even if Valve probably won’t be around forever I still expect my Steam games to last longer than anything else I could get. Steam is really the only reason I ever buy games at all anymore.

I mean, it’s at +4 and 83% upvotes. That’s just 5 upvotes and 1 downvote. There’s always that one guy.

I support any country’s right to not be conquered by capitalist, imperialist oligarchs whether I like their internal politics or not. I hate it when the US does it, so it would be hypocritical to not hate it when Russia does the same thing.
