We’ll have to agree to disagree. To go through your points, spell check I don’t find particularly impressive. That was solved previously without requiring the power demands of a small town. Grammer, maybe - but in my experience my “LLM powered” keyboard’s suggestions are still worse than old T9 input.

I’ve had no luck troubleshooting anything with AI. It’s often trained on old data, tries to instruct you to change settings that don’t exist, or dreams up controls that might appear on “similar” hardware. Sure you can perhaps infer a solution, maybe, but it’s rarely correct at first response. It’ll happily run you through steps that are inconsequential to fixing a problem.

Finally, it might be better than indexed search NOW - but mostly because LLMs wrecked that too. I used to be able to use a couple search operators and get directly to the information I needed - now search is reduced to shifting through slop SEO sites.

And it does all this half assing while using enough power to justify dedicated nuclear reactors. I cant help but feel we’ve regressed on so many fronts.

Hell I’d almost settle for just “making it work”. No disclaimers, no bullshitting. Computers should be optimized and accurate. AI is neither.

Most city schools don’t have room for a baseball field, but everyone’s got a basketball hoop. And idiots love to rally around baseball as the red blooded american sport, never mind that half the MLB is latino.

Antifa has blatantly and ILLEGALLY utilized hydrogen molecules in a crystalline structure, we’re looking at it very closely.

HP is BUSINESS, while Apple is CREATIVE. The greatest of political divides. /s

This picture is at least 15 years old, I remember it making the rounds during uhh, I want to say Obama’s first term.

Beautiful baby! I’m sorry for your loss

Can we get Saturn up to B tier, just for it’s badass rings? Possibly higher after the visit.

Copilot is love, copilot is life. It’s okay friend - these are copilot times, but I still copilot you.

And yet still, Stallman chose to add gnuplot integration into GNU Emacs. Checkmate atheists.

Not allegedly, it’s quite true. CRT’s tech approach adds gradients, depth to the colors and softens sharp pixel corners. Any sprite based game will look richer on a CRT, but filters are eh 80% good enough

My parents rented a storage unit when my grandma passed because no one had room for her nice furniture. And it is nice furniture, very well built - but no one is ever going to have the space for a 12ft tall curio cabinet. Let it goo.

32 will be fine for a long, long time unless something with the RAM situation changes. Especially with PC manufacturers moving their “mid-tier” machines back to 8 GB, optimization will become mandatory to sell games.

Maybe it’s better these days, but yeah they simply logged out tearing down the whole virtual machine

Can’t do that on GFN either, it’ll boot you after like 10 minutes of idle, and you lose your progress. I tried their early founders deal and that was an annoyance, could hardly use the bathroom without finding a save point first.

Lol visitors in my home are gonna get what they get, if they don’t like it they are welcome to not come over. Especially with animals, it can be extra tough to stay on top of it.

My standards aren’t low and I’ll pickup, sweep and do a vacuum before company comes by. If the toilet is gross I’ll give it a quick scrub but I’m not going around dusting every trinket and shelf to satisfy someone that’s just visiting.

Edit- I’ll concede there are levels to this. I aim to dust at least twice a month year round, so it’s never extraordinarily out of control for me. If previous holiday was the last time the shelves were wiped, that probably need addressed.

I run fedora on 8GB and find it functional but definitely not comfortable. Anything past a dozen tabs and it starts getting choked up.

Please mind your boggling, some of us are sleeping

Time to introduce the Mario 3D bundle and start moving units.

Using this image as a visual, each of the black squares is a NAND flash memory chip. If you want more storage on the device, it needs more chips on the board.

Density can vary between manufacturers, some 256 might only use one NAND chip, others may need two or more, but going up to 1TB there will generally need at least 4.

I read Dune in a book club, and honestly for the majority in the club even the first book was near incomprehensible. The group absolutely hated not understanding any of the nomenclature it throws at you from the start, and there’s was a lot of discussion that started “stick with it you’ll get used to it.”

I fucking love dune but took a few attempts to buy in and get through it. Glad I did though.
