Calling someone a liar isn’t a great way to start a discussion.

The arrogance in some of those quotes. Holy shit.
Jensen, you and your entire company could disappear without a trace, today, and the world would be just fine.
Probably better, in fact.

Ground Control (released in 2000) had the coolest artillery units of any RTS I ever played. And I pretty much played them all. The units fired in a long ballistic trajectory that was just really awesome to watch. And IIRC massing the units and firing at a target would make the artillery blanket the area, not all just hit the same place you clicked.

IF there are algorithms. So still…. nothing proven either way.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Agreed. However the linked article has the same problem with unprovable assumptions. At least in the way they described it to this amateur. The thing that stuck out to me the most was their assertion that everything must be algorithmic in nature. I would say, as someone living in the supposed simulation, it is impossible to determine something we’ve seen or measured is NOT algorithmic in nature, because we have no access to the algorithms.
But yeah… this ain’t a showerhought.
- Comment on how do you explain selfhosting to the non-techies in your life? 4 weeks ago:
And the one you make at home is always better anyway. Just requires more labor.

They don’t even think about that.
If they thought they could get away with shooting brown people and liberals in the streets, they would be.
They’re still working up to it, while the opposition leadership sits on their hands and whimpers, for the most part.

Yeah man, but there’s what should be, and what is. Things are fucked. And unfortunately the people fucking everything up aren’t going anywhere peacefully.

You’re getting downvoted because you’re saying we should do something that clearly will never be done. He ain’t been locked up yet despite a laundry list of crimes and convictions.
When justice becomes a joke, people will eventually take it into their own hands, for better or worse.

The post was “How do I…” not “Come judge and insult me”. Would’ve cost you nothing to move on to the next post without gracing us with your amazing display of tough love.
- Comment on Why is the human body so incredibly bad at responding to colds? 2 months ago:
Sure, but you unfortunately can’t just toss out millions of years of evolutionary programming just because it’s no longer convenient. Hence, extinction is a thing.

That “weird behavior” of close, social cooperation is why we’re the apex predators of this planet, for better or worse.

Again…. why? I don’t particularly like our current trajectory. Why further it?

“people have to keep being born.”
Why?

- Comment on Have you tried self-hosting your own email recently? 2 months ago:
I’ve been hosting my own email servers for 20 years without issue. But email systems were a huge part of my IT career so it was easy.
It works great if you have static IPs and know what you’re doing in terms of following best practices. If you’re missing those two things you’re going to have a bad time.
If you have the statics and want to learn, I’d recommend purchasing a test domain and getting the kinks worked out before you move a domain you care about to your own system.
