  It came out in 2011/2012, I wouldn’t classify that as retro

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hope you weren’t planning to play PhysX games on Nvidia’s new 50-series GPUs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No those games are not fine on 50 series GPUs, they can actually drop down to 10 fps or lower

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Attempt to motivate people to take the stairs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s weird… I wonder how that came to be like that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Attempt to motivate people to take the stairs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So Calories = kilocalories =/= calories?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Attempt to motivate people to take the stairs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it really so much effort for you to stand on the right side instead of the left? Why can’t we just be nice to eachother

  • I was still missing a bunch of posts after that, so I went back to settings and saw that ‘undefined’ was deselected again. That’s when I realised that you have to ctrl click each language you choose or else it just deselects the previous language that you clicked on.

  This actually took me multiple months to figure out, Lemmy felt like a ghost town, now it feels like a small town at least

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good morning I choose creativity and recycling.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It works better if you think about the raw materials rather than the whole product;

  Reduce the amount of plastic you use Reuse the plastic you already have Recycle the plastic you can’t use anymore

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  OpenAI like other AI companies keep their data sources confidential.

  “We trained on absolutely everything, but we won’t tell them that because it will get us in a lot of trouble”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple, Nvidia Are in Talks to Invest in OpenAI⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  ClosedAI just doesn’t sound as friendly

  Stainless steel nozzles work well enough and aren’t that expensive

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨European iPhones are more fun now⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And there are exceptions based on capacity and how long you guarantee the battery capacity will be good for. IIRC, if it still has 70% capacity by 3 years time, it doesn’t have to be replaceable at all.

  I do not remember reading that, the only exception I remember is for devices that are intended to be used under water, which phones are definitely not

  Thanks Miyoo Mini and PSVita and PSP and 3DS and Android phone and PC

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Close call⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Gamemania still exists? I always enjoyed browsing through the games there, nowadays all my games are digital so I don’t have a reason to visit a physical store anymore

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fair points, although I’m not sure that’s easy to solve. Some teachers are more interesting than others, but schools, especially middle and high schools are too generic for a whole class to be able to listen. Not everybody is going to enjoy chemistry class, while others are just not going to be happy in PE or foreign languages (me). I think a major rework of the school system is required for this to be kind of solved, but it’ll never go away completely.

  I think putting all the responsibility on schools is not the right approach, they’re probably already doing their best, but that just doesn’t work on every kid

  Not on mine :(

  I learned this the hard way when I lost all my fan profiles

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not advocating for allowing phones in schools during lectures or anything, but it’s pretty clear to me that an outright ban is an outdated solution that will only hide the issues instead of solving them.

  While I don’t disagree, social media is the problem and what are schools going to do about that, except for banning phones? You also can’t compare getting distracted by a pen or piece of paper, to a phone with bright colours and notifications, specifically designed to be as addicting as possible

  Not really as you’re still protected from password breaches, which is most likely to happen anyways, especially if you self host.

  If you’re actively being targeted for your bitwarden password, you likely have bigger problems
