DO DODO DO DOO DOO. DO DODO DO DO

Nope. I got the verification email on my 20 year old account just the other day

Don’t forget closing Bluepoint after multiple very successful remakes!

If they just let them remake Bloodborn, they would’ve been allowed to just print money

Bruh, why is this meme suddenly everywhere? Wtf happened?

Edit: What the fuck, why does it make everybody look like an entirety different character? Who at Nvidia looked at that and went “yeah, that’s perfect”?

It depends on a lot of things. Weight, truck availability, packaging size, whatever deal the manufacturer has with the shipping company, warehouse location, etc.

Supply chain management is an absolute unsolvable beast. I used to help out a local warehouse business, and the amount of work that went solely into optimizing their shipping costs was staggering

The guy they had on staff whose job it was to optimize everything was paid more than the owner or co-owner, and it was worth every penny. Dude was making 300k a year + 2% of all cost savings. Dude saved them 4.5 million on shipping costs according to the paper work I saw. And this is pre AI. Dude was doing all of this with scripts and spreadsheets

I mean, that makes sense to me at least. Drywall lifts aren’t difficult machines, they’re basically a lifting mechanism on a steel frame.

However, they are heavy and big mother fuckers, and therefore cost a ton to ship. Shipping is damned expensive, even without price fixing and gouging.

Even as a discord user, support forums, wikis, and QAs should not be done in discord. Their search feature is utter ass, and without tabs navigating forums is utter hell

So like 3 textbooks?

… Do people open docx and odt files in VIM? Fuckin why?

Suicide?

Okay honest question, what does the # actually do? Every time I try and use it (fedora 42), it just doesn’t run

I’ve posted the script!

Basically it goes like this -

Imagine a stranger is standing over your shoulder with a notepad and a camera. Every couple seconds, he takes a photo of what you’re doing and writes down everything you’ve typed. Then, the man hands that information off to another person. When you ask what that person is going to do with the info, the stranger assures you that he’s a friend and your information is perfectly safe.

You don’t know what it’s being used for, and you can’t be certain that the second stranger will actually keep your information safe. What if he just tosses it into an unlocked file cabinet? Anyone can now just come along and grab your information. That could be something as simple as something you looked at on Facebook. Or, it could contain your banking login. You can’t be certain what they’re taking notes and photos of, and what they or the strangers they supposedly trust are going to do with your information…

So basically just explaining what Recall and data selling are using metaphor combined with a not insignificant amount of fear mongering. The best way I’ve found to explain 99% of computer concepts to lay people is to avoid mentioning a computer as much as possible. This varies depending on the age of the person, but most of the time I’m cleaning or setting up computers and laptops, I’m doing it for someone 50+

I do a lot of work setting up computers and laptops for people, mostly getting software they need installed and setting up ad blocking so I don’t need to come back later on and clean up a million viruses.

Lately, I’ve been offering a discount to people that allow me to get rid of windows entirely and install Linux, with the option to reinstall Windows for free later. I’ve had several people take me up on the offer, especially once I explain what Recall is to them. Only 1 has had me switch it back, and they needed to use some super niche piece of software that I just absolutely could not get running with wine no matter what I installed, and I suspect that it has something built in to make it not run on non-windows systems.

Basically, just explaining Microsoft’s security nightmare in a way that your average person can understand (and I mean a real average person, not the average person as people on Linux forums see them) has gotten over 2 dozen clients to switch over to Linux with minimal issues.

Also windows borking like 5 peoples SSDs certainly helped!

I’m always surprised that Deezer is still around. Who on earth is still using it?

Also, fuck iHeartRadio. Not for their royalties, but for buying up tons of local stations and stripping them of anything that made them even remotely worth listening to. Fuckers bought the only station in town that played any amounts of metal and turned it into yet another top 10s station

cough read the full comment cough

Pretty hard to pirate RAM. Sadly all the wam you can download is DDR3

So uh… How much you want for it?

I wouldn’t be surprised if we’ve already passed that for new content. I can’t search for anything nowadays without it being clearly AI written garbage, especially for guides for video games.

At least when someone on GameFAQs made some shit up it was a human being looking to troll you, not some statistical bullshit machine trying to generate page views for ad revenue
