…and you guys don’t think apple is doing the same shit? Get a spectre. Dumb tv all the way.

How should a situation like these be handled in the future?

By devs not using AI in their games. You did nothing wrong.

No, I know I’ll be allowed to vote in the primaries. I also have zero faith that any worthwhile option will be allowed to run. So, vote between worthless option number 1, or worthless option number 2.

On top of all that, I’m still not convinced it’s not rigged from the start. Joe Biden in 2020 wasn’t considered a real option. He was in 5th place and assumed to drop out shortly. Bernie Sanders had a significant lead. Then, in the timespan of 3 days, Biden was far and away the clear cut leader. I’ve not since that day held any faith in the DNC.

I vote for this guy for president for two reasons.

1. This guy gets it

And 2) Look at my alternatives. We all know trump is going to be the 2028 candidate despite that not being legal. I’m at a point where I don’t even think he’s going to use corruption to change the law. I think he’s just going to run, and nobody will do anything to stop it. As far as the democrats go, I don’t know who they’ll run, but I know they’ll be worthless. Probably Tim Walz or some shit.

So yeah, I got nothing to lose and everything to gain by voting for this random guy who may not even be eligable to run for president due to not being American. But hey, laws won’t exactly be the top priority in the 2028 election anyways.

And you’ll need 1 whole data center to run the emulator.

Maaaaaaaaan…this sucks. At one point in the 90s I had played every version of tetris released.

I haven’t kept up, but my inner 8 year old is sad. My inner 8 year old wants to play all the tetris, but my outer 42 year old self is keeping my inner 8 year old away from anything trump related.

My inner 8 year old is sad, but I’ll understand when I grow up…wait, how does this work again?

And how do you think AI is interacted with? On what device?

I don’t use chrome, but this thread is the first I’m hearing of this.

I think we may just have a difference in perspective. I would call a buggy a car because it has wheels and carries passengers. I wouldn’t call it an automobile, because that implies an automatic engine, but I would consider it a form of car.

Same with BBS/Internet. Once you have a series of servers interconnected, and have access to them via an ISP, yes. That is a form of early internet. It dates back to something like the 1960s. Going back to NASA and government usage.

So I think we’re talking about the same thing with just a difference of perspective and opinion.

Early internet, yes. Not pre-internet.

I’ve been saying this for years. Look at taxi’s. In my city in 2005 there were 8 major taxi companies. Each with hundreds of drivers on the road at any given time. Now we have 2 of those 8 remaining, and they’re essentially shell companies with 2-3 drivers on the road. The last 4 times I’ve tried ordering a cab the traditional way, I’ve been told there’s no drivers available. Now it’s all Uber. And Lyft. You can’t call them. You need a cell phone, and you need internet access.

All the major corporations are in agreement that we all need cell phones, and we all need to be tracked 24/7. And now with AI, they’re getting their data straight from the source. There are men out there who talk to an AI girlfriend. Not sexy stuff. I mean imagine sitting at the dinner table, and discussing your day…with your AI girlfriend. Meanwhile, ALL that data is going straight to the companies that host the AI.

Another side effect is that AI will make people dumber. In case you haven’t noticed since the 1970s, there has been a GOP push to make the citizens dumber and dumber. Easier to control. Easier to fool. Easier to get away with things.

So now you got ram being sold for computers that haven’t been built yet, to be put in data centers that haven’t been built yet, to run an AI system that isn’t functional yet, in order to steal the jobs of employees that can’t be replaced yet, all in an effort to chase profits that were never possible in the first place since everyone hates AI.

You wanna see some shit go down? Tell the companies we’ll use their AI if they get the unredacted epstein files released. See how fast they bribe the right people then.

Now tell the politicians we’ll stop caring about the epstein files if they forcibly ban all data centers in the country. See how fast they act on that.

Now we sit back, wait, and watch the fireworks. Oh, and by the way, we’re going back on our word either way. Whomever wins, fuck em.

What if it’s just a flying drone, but all it does is shoot you with a never ending supply of spit balls? Just all day, every day, bullied by a drone.

Or never had one, and are just checking one thing. Then twitter says you need an account to view. So you use these alternate viewing sites. I did that a few times.

If Lemmy has a retweet function, I’d retweet your comment. More people need to see this.

Violence still isn’t necessary

I disagree. Show me a time in history where a population is being oppressed, and then that stopped without violence.

Ya know…everyone always tries to say violence isn’t the answer. It’s things like this that tells me those people are stupid. Violence is absolutely the answer.

Wait…were we all not already on the same page about that? Am I supposed to gasp here?

I do not understand Linux. I do not understand terminal. Logically I should be using the more popular, easier to understand, financially backed operating system. The pattern used to be 1 bad windows release then 1 good release. XP was good, Vista was bad. 7 was good, 8 was bad. So I expected 10 to be good. And it just wasn’t. And the thing is, it never got back to how amazing XP was for it’s time. 7 was good, but it felt lacking. It should have been better. I didn’t switch from XP until the very end. And then I think I went another year or two unsupported. Until finally that PC died, and then I bought a Windows 7 PC almost into the days of Windows 10. And used that until 2023. I still use the PC hardware, but now I have ZorinOS. Which is fine. I almost know how to do things after 2 years. I still can’t figure out installing Audacious. Keeps telling me the package requires dependancies, but won’t install them. But day to day browsing, and various other tasks I get by reasonably well enough.

So you’d think I should have stuck with windows, but FUCK THAT SHIT!!! I will pay for a good operating system. I don’t care about the money. What I care for is a minimalist UI, with a start button and a task bar. Clock in the lower right, along with a shortcut to various other toggles, like bluetooth, wifi, display settings, ect. and next to the start button should be 3 shortcut program buttons. Right now I only have two. Firefox and the file manager. I need to right click the taskbar to have a context menu to give the option to start the task manager.

Zorin has all of that. It’s been two years, so I don’t remember how much of this I customized. I know for the first month I STRUGGLED. Then I finally got things the way I like. I know my current task bar is a mod. My setup feels very Modern day Windows XP. Except instead of “Start”, my start button says “Fuck”, because it makes me giggle that I can do that. All in all, I feel functional in someone elses home. You know when you stay with your friend on the other side of the country? And you’re there for like 2 weeks, and by day 10 it starts feeling like you kinda sorta know your way around everything in the house? But maybe you don’t know how to work the stereo system to work with the TV. So you just watch it with the TV speakers. That’s how I feel with Linux. I can get things done, but I don’t feel at home.

So when I see microsoft headlines like this, where it’s just straight up bullshit, I feel bad for those who still use windows. Then suddenly Linux starts to feel a lot more like home than Windows does these days. So good job Microsoft. You legitimately drove me away as a customer, and continued to keep me at bay simply by existing as you currently are.

Its 1, but the video is 2 hours 39 minutes long. It’s just “HEAD ON! APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD!” on repeat.

Maybe things change in the future, but right now I see VHS tapes at local thrift shops as being bigger competition to houtube than this.
