When I get bored with the conversation/tired of arguing I will simply tersely agree with you and then stop responding. I’m too old for this stuff.
Release date for the release date is about to drop.
Not that I think this isn’t hilarious, but to quote Trump’s own idiotic ramblings, “Nobody knows what an app is.” His redneck supporters that don’t trust such fancy lib’ral scams as “mail” and “locked drop boxes” sure aren’t going to understand using an app to book a seat in a movie theater.
Yes! Containerize, containerize, containerize until every perfectly good machine built before 2020 is rotting away in a landfill!
They don’t. But if they already have it in for someone, which the Democrats in Congress almost certainly do right now, public opinion can give them a cover to act.
It’s certainly not for our benefit, but if one group of shitlords wants to take another shitlord down a few pegs, I’m certainly going to enjoy the show.
YOU might not. But I’m sure the politicians and bureaucrats who determine whether Musk’s businesses continue getting billions in taxpayer funded subsidies would sure like to know if the public is behind continuing to do that. I for one would consider it a bonus if say, the Democrats won control in November, looked at the numbers and decided none of their supporters are behind Musk, determined he’s been playing fast and loose using taxpayer dollars to fund pushing his own political agenda, and turned off the free ride.
Yeah, it sounds like the kind of thing you could do but would pay out the butt for as a private service. Road map books and asking directions were my go-to.
Of course, post-internet but pre-GPS there was always mapquest.
Don’t forget the inability of the rich to keep you in poverty wages when there aren’t 50 people waiting to replace you at every job!
I mean, it would make sense.
The only way a conspiracy theorist can be swayed is if being right isn’t a win condition. If there’s no other person to feel better than when you’re debating, something might actually sink in.
I know the cultural context and respect it as different from my own.
But it will never stop being viscerally disgusting to my personal sensibilities.
Every time I just suck it up. Pun intended.
Ramen. And they are slurping like an 85 year old man who hasn’t had to care in 6 decades.
Half the training is shooting the bow.
The other half is burying the intrusive thoughts.
Hardly worth mentioning at this point, but this is illegal.
“Here’s how to turn on a new feature whose settings your devices will magically forget for no reason once or twice a year, and occasionally lock your UI for several minutes while phoning home. Also make sure you replace ALL of your devices frequently with ones with the newest Android versions, because we’re CERTAINLY not going to support this feature on anything older than the jar of spaghetti sauce in your fridge, which you’ll find out when one of them just stops being compatible, which will happen at the WORST possible time when you’re in an important meeting or having your last phone call with your dying grandma or something.”
Here’s to the Losers in my ass
What if you’re pirating to avoid agreeing to an EULA that lets a giant corporation murder your family members?
In the sense that it’s a matter of being in the right place at the right time, yes. Exactly the same thing. Opportunities aren’t equal - they disproportionately effect those who happen to be positioned to take advantage of them. If I’m giving away a free car right now to whoever comes by, and you’re not nearby, you’re shit out of luck. If AI didn’t HAPPEN to use massively multi-threaded computing, Nvidia would still be artificial scarcity-ing themselves to price gouging CoD players. The fact you don’t see it for whatever reason doesn’t make it wrong. NOBODY at Nvidia was there 5 years ago saying “Man, when this new technology hits we’re going to be rolling in it.” They stumbled into it by luck. They don’t get credit for forseeing some future use case. They got lucky. That luck got them first mover advantage. Intel had that too. Look how well it’s doing for them. Nvidia’s position over AMD in this space can be due to any number of factors… production capacity, driver flexibility, faster functioning on a particular vector operation, power efficiency… hell, even the relationship between the CEO of THEIR company and OpenAI. Maybe they just had their salespeople call first. Their market dominance likely has absolutely NOTHING to do with their GPU’s having better graphics performance, and to the extent they are, it’s by chance - they did NOT predict generative AI, and their graphics cards just HAPPEN to be better situated for SOME reason.
Go ahead and design a better pickaxe than them, we’ll wait…
Same argument:
“He didn’t earn his wealth. He just won the lottery.”
“If it’s so easy, YOU go ahead and win the lottery then.”
I’m sure they’ll get RIGHT on doing something about it.
LITERALLY Kefka.
