I’m in that same boat. Turned down a management position when they offered a sweet 0.6% raise

Especially ironic since that meme actually began on Imgur

Combat doesn’t feel like a challenge to you while you’re getting swarmed with sentinels, including walkers? Those things have killed me more than once

a virtual replica of you is able to embody your values and preferences with stunning accuracy.

I’m calling BS on this one. “Values and preferences” are such a far cry from Actual Personality that it’s meaningless. Just more LLM hype

Nice boots

Yes, but how many Ads for (Car Brand) do I need to see before I’ll buy a vehicle from (Car Brand)?

I thought everything went crooked the day Harambe died

It’s not AI, it’s an LLM. It doesn’t know what misinformation is because it doesn’t Know anything

Oooof, too true

It’s meant as a comparison in terms of Moral Crusades via Prohibition tactics. I have a feeling that a “ban” on pornography will likely end the same way, with hyperbolic responses and lives disrupted to no positive resolutions. But it really seems untenable as a concept, that genie is so far out of the bottle that there is no bottle anymore; only the whole entire internet

Hilarious. As if this could ever actually be instituted nationwide. Regulations on sale and access maybe, but moral crusades like this are perpetually doomed to failure, much like the War on Drugs.

Doesn’t mean they won’t try, won’t posture, won’t grandstand about it, but to actually succeed in this goal when over 50% of the populace isn’t going to be behind it? I guess we’ll just have to watch them try.

It honestly isn’t that card to take a can of diced tomatoes and throw it on the frying pan, add some garlic, olive oil, salt, and herbs of your choosing, reduce to a suitable volume, good to go. I’m surprised more people don’t do that.

Feel free to share your recipe though, I’d be curious how others do it

I read it and recall enjoying it, but it’s far from my favorite PKD, and I honestly don’t remember much about it.

I’m absolutely looking for a real answer, not here to downvote or troll.

When you say “the tech is useful” I don’t see it that way from my perspective because I can’t think of any specific scenarios for this tech to prove valuable to me, in terms of the way that I interface with an OS.

What I’m hoping for from you is a Use Case; what specific application of this tech would you, the End User, find to be a vast improvement in the way that you interface with Windows?

I’m not going to downvote you, because I’m genuinely curious: Why would this be a “very important can’t-live-without feature”, what’s the argument?

Because from where I’m sitting as a user of various Windows & Linux products for several decades, this has never been anything I’ve asked for or needed, let alone wanted to take up >20Gb of my hard drive space. What is the Use Case sales pitch that convinced you?

You need to rethink your social media strategy, and please leave Lemmy alone.

You need to go back to the drawing board and rethink your marketing strategy, and please leave Lemmy alone.

Worth checking out the Search Engine podcast about Kratom & Tianeptine, “The Mystery of the Vape Shop Kratom”. It’s absolutely nuts that this stuff has zero oversight

The Verge basically just copied the notes from the Behind the Bastards episodes about Curtis Yarvin. A frustrating experience to listen to, and read about as well considering how Yarvin is so very full of bad ideas

You need to rethink your marketing strategy, and then having thought about it, stop posting on Lemmy.
