Approaching 50, use SUS regularly, skibidi usage is dropping off, I’m aware of rizz but don’t really use it.

That may be a better way to weed boomers from Gen X. Especially SUS, among us had a very wide appeal to multiple age ranges.

I was totally on board until centos got screwed over ( and subsequently AM2 )

I’ll be a cold day before I touch any fedora or redhat again or even mention to another person that they should run it.

Why’d you pick me up?

Why’d you take me out of my house

and kill my parents with me? Ain’t you committed to me?

Where are we fuckin’ goin’?

Though Yolanda AKA Honey Bunny from Pulp Fiction it a close second.

Find a job where you’re never without something to do.

Huh, turns out I can never go to Romania. I would eat until I pop.

When I visited Ireland I was very impressed by the Irish cartoons. Anywhere I went I hardly heard a lick of anything but English, but it was obvious what they were there for and it was very cool thing.

Maybe this will be the straw the causes them to port librelec to it

I’m balanced.

I’ll help you push you car. I’ll hold the door for anyone, I’ll let you in, in traffic. I’ll over-tip the wait staff, even the ones having a bad day. I give kids in my neighborhood freezypops when it’s hot AF. I’ll go out of my way to make sure your food allergy is covered and you’ll have safe snacks at my gathering.

I won’t give the guy begging on the corner money. I won’t help you forever if you never reciprocate. You skip a paycheck, I won’t wait for you to get it sorted.

I won’t remember that you hate mushrooms. I won’t remember your kids name or wife’s face. I’ll forget you birthday if it’s not in my calendar. I’ll tell you I need to focus on something for an hour and go take a nap.

When firing people is difficult, it’s not infrequent to promote them to hire someone useful to backfill.

Those people keep rising the ladder through seniority and attrition.

They never do anything bad enough to get fired and just make everyone below them miserable cuz they don’t understand the business and like to prove that they’re in charge because of fear of inadequacy.

I hope they haven’t disassembled it and sold it on eBay for bribe money

There’s no clear path from getting the computer out of the box just setting it up without internet. If you call the manufacturer and they know what the hell they’re doing they’ll walk you through doing the OOBE no internet fix. It just needs to be an option in the damn operating system. The fact that they’re hiding it from you is unconscionable.

I can’t fault him for any of his depth and character building and poetry and storytelling and descriptive environments it was all very thorough and for the right person wonderful. I think the movies did a giant justice to making his work accessible. There are a lot of people out there that can’t manage to make their way through his poetry sections. And you can’t not read the poetry sections because there’s definitely content in there you need.

You could make automatic breaking without a full blown computer, but it’s so much cheaper to put a full-blown computer than it is to do it all in hardware. Everything uses turing complete equipment now, it’s actually less expensive at this point.

There’s absolutely no reason not to put multiple computers in the car I think the real win is not surfacing it to the end user.

I used to work in a company that was VC adjacent.

Most of the people sitting on piles of money don’t have any knowledge or radar to help them negotiate where to put it. They lean heavily on other people to tell them what to invest in.

When AI first started getting big everybody was guessing where the curve was going to be and where the technology was going to head. The people guiding the venture capitalists were putting their oars in the water early.

To be fair there’s a lot of money to be made in AI assistants if they can manage to run the back end affordably. If you’re asking Google, Siri, and Alexa complicated questions they’re miserably fit for the task. But when we get to the point where you can expect a reasonable answer from something like look up all the places to rent cars near Tucson Arizona give me the cheapest price with the best reviews. Or tutor my kid on basic calculus, test him, and give me a report on where he needs more assistance. That kind of stuff is worth money and something that many people with money will pay for.

This form factor is off-putting and honestly AI at this point is still only mostly right.

The VCs are all over AI and there’s opportunity there. Just not on every product and probably not yet.

Nah, all the original data came from humans. If it was all good and happy and properly tagged correctly there’d be no intervention.

Unfortunately they scraped it from wherever in the hell they could get it from and it’s not all tagged correctly.

I’m sure they use more AI to pre-grade it, but at some point a set of real eyes need to verify that something is what it’s supposed to be.

This is more of a blood diamonds or fair trade coffee thing, US legislation isn’t going to have anything to do with it. You need to expose the places using the data.

Oh my God my wife bought this bean bag once. It was a photography thing so it had to be absolutely packed full. So the skin came folded up in this tiny little plastic bag and then it came with three giant bags of styrofoam balls.

If you stuck your hand in the back and pulled it out it would just be coated. I spent hours just trying to scoop them into the bean bag.

When I got to the second bag to fill I found a long narrow box and taped it up to the side of the bean bag slice the bean bag open and used it to pour them through.

The whole experience was awful. And the cleanup took nearly as long as the fill.

Not as such. But it also doesn’t mean that it can’t have catastrophic results.

Your water heater has an overpressure valve, but just one. A failure in that valve and a temperature regulator and you can have your hot water heater shooting up through your roof.

Your furnace has a control board. It turns the gas on, hits the igniter, watches for flame. An older, shittier designs, it was entirely possible for just one or two sensors to go bad and run the furnace to the point of melting down and have the house burned down. Source: happened to me on vacation many decades ago.

Npm isnt horrible for that.

If the price was even relatively sane I would be okay with that honestly.

But no, they need to keep driving the price up and up. I have to pay my part so that little Jimmy can host 297 hours of white noise on his account that no one wants to watch.

They simply need to change their tactics a little. It cost you some small sane amount to host your videos there. If your videos don’t g gather watches and make money you should be the one paying for them.

I want to pay about nine bucks a month for a family account it’s just b-f rate content. You can pay less to get actual well rated movies from other services.

Also give me the option not to throw in Google music I don’t give a s*** about Google music.
