The dangerous thing with speech is the ability to radicalize people. I mostly agree with your comment but it’s a more complex topic than “until you don’t do something bad you’re fine”.

I haven’t seen it used that way yet, but seems like a clever meta. Honestly community notes might be the only good thing on the entire platform. My favorite is when there are community notes on ads.

Every time I pirate a ubisoft game I regret it, I never play more than maybe an hour with them and then I have to seed them to get > 1.0 ratio (private site rules). So I just stopped pirating them lol.

Honestly had slight hopes for Avatar because the art team really outdid themselves, but I knew in the back of my head that the actual game would be shit.

*Smell me?

Agreed. It will take a second to unlearn the muscle memory but separating it was a good idea.

I disagree, I think it’s always just about money. Power hungry-ness comes from the fear of losing your current position, the fear of not advancing and getting left behind. With power they secure the position they have. And it’s not just exclusive to the rich. You can see the exact same pattern in a random fucking McDonald’s.

If it was more profitable (and possible) to automate 40% of work at any given company (the ratio Gates said in this article), everyone would do it in a heartbeat.

I feel you, my problem is that I switch between languages too much. I’m learning rust right now as a hobby, but I’m technically a frontend dev with years of experience in angular and react, and a couple months ago I have been put on a legacy rails project, which we’re rewriting for Angular x Java stack (thankfully my roommate is a Java backend dev, he’s been a lot of help) and on top of this I maintain my Cyberpunk 2077 mods written in lua, c++ and redscript (swift-like).

Send help.

You can ask it for source now with browser integration. Previously the browser extension was a separate model with gpt3.5 which was pretty bad, now it’s just integrated into gp4. It works a million times better and it’s great that it doesn’t break the flow of the conversation.

Download. I have fast internet so I don’t really care about streaming + I like to archive rewatch worthy shows. An entire season of a show takes only a couple minutes, then it’s accessible on my plex server.

I’m in an invite only site that I’m not going to name and there hasn’t been a single instance of something not being uploaded there that I wanted to watch.

In my country (in the EU) usually if a service charge is added on top of the order, it’s because that particular place doesn’t accept tips.

The Hyperloop thing is more complicated and more like an elaborate plan. It was a way to distract California lawmakers from a high-speed rail project, in order to sell more Teslas.

I absolutely do not care, storage is cheap. If it means the game has more & higher quality assets I’m all for it. An extra SSD or two never hurts.

I suffered with it a lot, personally. Pretty much every food tasted different, and most of it was horrible for about 1 year (after the initial ~3 months of 0 smell). I lost a lot of weight because I just couldn’t eat anything, everything had a horrible taste that I cannot compare to anything and I was really depressed about it. I started experimenting with vastly different foods that I was used to eating and that worked a bit. After about 1,5 years some tastes slowly started creeping back and it’s still in progress. Some foods now just simply taste different to what they used to (but not bad), some still taste bad, and some taste exactly like I remember.

This whole thing was/is really depressing for me personally. I don’t have any positives about it.

And of course each teams instance uses 2gb ram each because they’re very badly optimized electron apps.

Covid’s “funny” phenomena is primarily due to the virus causing damage to the olfactory neurons and supporting cells in the nose. In rare cases it can permanently damage the neurons (which happened to me and my sister and our sense of smell still isn’t the same as before, 2.5 years after catching covid). It’s not that funny.

Wow this is exactly my company right now

Honestly from my observation at work I think it’s more the fact that shorter guys are more insecure or intimidated by taller guys and have less confidence, which affects how they present themselves.

Allegedly.

You don’t understand, that’s for your protection so you can feel safer and even more freedomery
