Do you have a SteamDeck OLED? Maybe try BG again, for a lot of this year I had problems with it too mostly around HDR. Then I tried again this fall after a substantial bug fix and it ran great. Just a little stuttering loading assets once in a while.
I’ll say two things that I have actually found useful with ChatGPT, helping me flesh out NPCs in the tabletop RPG campaign I’m running, and diagnosing tech problems. That’s it. I’ve tried to program, have it make professional documents, search things for me, all of it sucks compared to just doing it myself. Definitely not worth poring a significant chunk of the global GDP into.
‘The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi’ isn’t left-wing propaganda, it’s what my grandfathers taught me. Those men were definitely not “Left-wing” lol!
Not to mention invisible when it does it’s job right. When public health is supported people don’t get sick, epidemics don’t happen, things look good. So some genius gets it in their head to cut public health funding. Why waste money on public health when people aren’t sick. Then public health gets cut, people get sick, people blame the health care industry which isn’t the same as public health. That happenes until public health gets a little more support, and people stop getting sick, rinse any memory of the last time, and repeat.
Unfortunately those are the most expensive parts right now because they both require memory chips. Perhaps consider buying used, might be tough to find DDR5 DIMMs but used GPUs are plentiful.
Because middle class is used wrong in North America.
Poverty class is simple, you don’t have enough to live.
Labor class is divided into three;
Low labor, your barely paid enough to scrape by.
Middle labor, your paid enough for your work to live.
High labor, you’re paid well for your work. Perhaps you own your own small business.
Middle class, you aren’t paid a wage or salary anymore, you’re income comes from the things you own. As rich as a politician or nobility but not much political power.
Upper class, in old Europe this would be the nobels. Duke’s, Earls, Lords, that type of stuff. In modern north America this would be the ultra rich. You have political power and you own a lot of stuff. This is where most representatives are.
Politician class, former Royal class. You rule, extreme political power and wealth.
Most people in North America think they’re in the middle class when really they’re in the Labor middle class, it’s very different
That’s a good question, followed by a lot of bad assumptions.
Six foot! Seven foot! Eight foot bunch! Daylight come and me wan go home.
You’re right but you’re ignoring everything the other person said. Go back 25+ years and there was a mono-pop-culture. You’d go to work after the latest episode of Twin Peaks and just discussed it. Those conversations weren’t preface with “Spoiler warning.” Either you saw it or yo didn’t. It was a cultural touch stone that most people would at the very least know of, but probably was as engaged with as you were.
Sure, Japanese people weren’t watching the same thing as Americans, or South Afrikans and The Brits weren’t consuming the same things. It was still a lot more homogeneous culture back then. Not saying now is better than then or anything, just that it was very different.
Tell that to the eternal accountants. -400 points for buying a tomato. No wonder we’re all going to the bad place.
By vibes. Legit that’s all it is.
Yup!
“I’m sorry but your contact is terminated because our management software designated your position as redundant and unnecessary. It wasn’t our decision to let you go, but it was our decision to begin using that software and it was our decision to program it to try to fire as many employees as possible, but it’s not our decision and therefore we can’t be held responsible. Goodbye.”
I hate to tell you this but private equity has been a problem long before the Internet went mainstream. I think venture capital firms we’re a product of a post-WWII world trying to capture as much wealth as possible during reconstruction. I’d have to check some sources to be sure of that and I’m really not motivated enough to do it.
And incomplete vehicle internal combustion. You could smell that a car had driven by for a good few minutes after it left. Walking beside a road just always had that smell.
Look into:
Talescale for an easy but limited option.
Wireguard with a dynamic DNS service for something that provides more flexibility with a little set up.
Don’t open a publicly facing port unless it’s for an encrypted tunnel. If you don’t want to open your computer to a lot of threats. Always use an encrypted tunnel when opening something to the Internet.
Nintendo and Disney aren’t evil because they’re cooperations, not people. It’s the people who sit on top of Disney and Nintendo who are either diabolically evil or spineless cowards who want money and power but are too scared to use it for good. Either way, Nintendo and Disney “don’t serve the public interest”.
I’ve had my posts swamped by downvotes at least once by saying “I not pro-Palestine, I’m pro-People” as if I have to favor factions rather than, you know, being against the victimization of people who did nothing to deserve it quite independently of whatever label they’re tagged with.
I think part of the reason being pro-people makes others angry is because everyone is so polarized politically. A lot more people than usual are approaching politics expecting that you’re either supporting my ideals or not supporting them. Which may as well be opposing them and opposing ‘our’ ideals is your moral failing. Nuance is gone, the political center is gone. At least until there are some serious changes.
What if that straight A student from Johns Hopkins develops an opioid addiction and becomes an insufferable asshole but can still manages to oversee the Differential Diagnosis Department?
That’s worse than the toolbar hell people installed onto their browsers in the 2000s. I will never forget my great-aunt telling me that her grandkids broke her computer and made the Internet slow but wouldn’t uninstall all the toolbars and emoticons she had. Truly a PEBKAC error.
Controlled by LLMs perhaps not, but I believe that the execs pushing AI are drinking as much AI Kool aid as anyone you know who has AI psychosis. That could be why AI is so sycophantic. That is the social model execs in the big 7 want the world to treat them, and they’ve drank so much of their own Kool aid that they believe it now.
