It’s just a facade to justify mining more data for power, influence and money.

Simple as that.

Tell that to someone starting out and look at their deer in the headlight face. Then you’ll realize that the point went over your head.

Thanks for putting it in such concise words.

I am an embedded developer so the LLM/AI is a omni-present talking point and one of my friends was saying that he loved LLMs because they could generate big chunks of code and he can go through it after and fix the mistakes.

He has the skills to fix the issues because he has a decade of non-LLM experience.

But someone that doesn’t have that experience will have a hard time finding the correct fix when the vibe code isn’t working as it should. They will rely on LLM telling them that they were right, so here is a new fix that doesn’t fix the issue.

There are game changing items combinations. But it depends also on your traits.

For example, one run, I had a cleric that shared his regeneration with other cats, and an item that gave me +3 regen if I had at least 1 armor point.

So I equipped an armor item and every turn, my cats would heal 4 hp, making them extremely tanky and making the run trivial.

But it’s hard to get a combo going.

My name is French, but my initials are close to an English name (and that’s my everyday nickname as well).

So it was easy to get an English nickname.

If you are fine being in the current situation, there is no rush.

But know that if you want more out of the relationship, it won’t happen. If/When you get there, if you don’t call it off, it will get harder and messier every day. So just be honest with yourself and your partner when the time comes.

The boundaries of the relationship have been set and the chances they change in the current situation aren’t that good. So as long and you are happy in the boundaries of the relationship, then you aren’t wasting time.

I got gifted a P1S, so I use it. But I stopped updating the FW and use Orca Slicer with the printer in LAN mode. Not optimal, but better than completely giving the control away to Bambu Lab

The 4070 was released almost 3 years ago, so the driver should be decently stable and not cause that much issues, no matter the distro.

Just know that whatever distro you are choosing, it is a different workflow than Windows and it will take time to get used to it, and there will be some friction. And that’s fine. The first month is the hardest and it gets a lot easier fast.

Take a popular distro because it has a bigger user base and the chances that someone else has already fixed your issue and detailed the steps is a lot bigger than a niche distro.

If you want to easily test a few distro, take a usb key and install Ventoy on it. It will allow you to plug the usb key and drop ISO directly on it and boot from it. It will allow you to easily test distros without having to reformat the usb key each time.

Well it’s a pretty big deal, especially for large power storage.

Absolutely, but the goal of putting that on the package is to make it seem like it is a local product while it is in fact not made here.

Fine. But companies shouldn’t try to deceive customers with a bullshit “Designed in the US”

My very uneducated understanding is that sodium batteries can be produced virtually anywhere.

Not every battery application needs to maximize energy density, so sodium batteries are good where that is the case.

I also did not read about sodium ion batteries characteristics versus lithium ion, so there might also be other use cases where sodium ion batteries are better.

It takes time to scale production and even more time to adopt a new technology.

At least, they didn’t SLAM Microsoft.

If we burn the planet for more economic productivity, we made more money but made human life worst.

So what is the point of economic productivity if it makes our everyday live worst?

Stifle wasn’t the right word. Sorry about that, I wrote my comment too fast amd English isn’t my first language.

Innovation isn’t an all or nothing thing.

There is a difference between removing all the red tape and saying “fuck it” and making sure that the said innovation isn’t outright dangerous. If we need to take thing slower to make sure that people aren’t killed directly or indirectly, then so be it.

History has shown us again and again that corporations can’t behave decently if let to their own device.

I would much rather have the government stiffle innovation if that means that consumer are safe and benefit from said innovation.

Why go to Vegas when you can gamble all your money away on your phone from the comfort of your couch.

Take the money you saved from the airplane fare you didn’t buy and gamble it on if Trump will say 6-7 this week.

I never thought about that. I use the voice chat a little bit, but you are right that it works well enough and I can stream my games.

The only pain point would be for people that don’t use steam for whatever reason. Discord offers the web interface which is useful when video chatting with non gamers.

I wasn’t the original OP.

Capitalism as it is applied today is incompatible with any kind of increase in quality of life for the general population and any efficiency gain is pocketed by the richs, and the different branches of the government are captured in pretty much every country in the world.

In a fairer world, companies would be highly taxed. To reduce the taxation burden, companies would need to invest in R&D, employees compensation and community building/support, which would include a UBI of some sort. Companies could still generate profit, but not in the absurd amount that we are seeing today.

In that context, automation would be a no brainer.

But I genuinely believe that UBI or anything similar will not happen in my lifetime because rich people’s influence is too strong and the common person will vote against their interests because of the constant barrage of propaganda.
