• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which kind of applications need legacy processor but up to date OS ?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll have to check that out. I’m more of a Linux guy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which kind of applications need legacy processor but up to date OS ?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Because you had the hardware on hand?

  Idk, but this made me have to get rid of a machine with a perfecly good Cyrex CPU.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is coal and fossil fuels still used?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  cheap and easy.

  My Gen X ass is obligated to respond “like your mom?”

  Fossil fuels are actually older than the dinosaurs. Oil and gas form from ancient algae type organisms. Coal is from ancient tree type organisms.

  I say type because they only resemble those, and aren’t closely related.

  There’s also Libby, Hoopla, and Overdrive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self Hosted Network Analyzer?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Can’t you just use Kali for that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it weird to juggle in the park?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There was one guy in my classes during undergrad who rode a unicycle while playing guitar. He did this everywhere he went. Cool guy. Very level headed and down to earth, just quirky.

  I’m using GrapheneOS, so I can’t speak for the stock spyware that Google puts in. I’m sure that’s horrible.

  It’s good quality hardware for sure.

  I’m an old Army veteran, I’ve had tinnitus for years. I’m using a Pixel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are We All Becoming More Hostile Online?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Not yet. 😂

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are We All Becoming More Hostile Online?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I like to carry an air horn for when scammers and other nuisances call.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are We All Becoming More Hostile Online?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  IMO, the reason is because scientists haven’t found a way to punch someone in their face over the internet yet.

  Right? That’s what encouraged me to sail the high seas.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re right, but this is the wrong community.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I installed Linux on this 8-inch mini laptop, and it's my new favorite way of computing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  ASUS still makes netbooks.

  I bought a little $200 model a few years ago. It weighs 9 oz.

  I forget Lemmy isn’t full of adult children and fascist algorithms that censor you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Dehumanizing the enemy is part of any war, otherwise it’s more difficult to unalive them. It’s a tribal quality, not a fascist one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m also in your age group, and I’m picking up what you’re putting down.

  I had a lot of problems with my mental health thatbwere made worse by centralized social media. I can see hoe the younger generation will have the same problems with centralized AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  can we just call them NPCs?

  They were NPCs before AI was invented.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  TLDR: Artificial Intelligence enhances natural stupidity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨he big, he attac⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure, but the population would be so similar that it probably wouldn’t make much difference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨he big, he attac⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The downside to cloning as a reproductive system is that the entire population will have the same genetics and be vulnerable to the same diseases and poisons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cardinals most likely to be the pope⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, a birb could do a better job.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4 fundamental forces⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Gravity is actually a weak force.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marc Andreessen predicts one of the few jobs that may survive the rise of AI automation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I call it LLM because true AI doesn’t yet exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “Terrorists test weapons on innocent civilians”

  There FTFY.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marc Andreessen predicts one of the few jobs that may survive the rise of AI automation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Venture capitalism? Man that dude is getting high on his own bullshit.

  Science won’t be replaced by LLMs.

  Trades won’t be replaced.

  Basically jobs that shouldn’t exist will be replaced. Middle management, (hopefully) C-suite, possibly assembly and customer service.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"You Wouldn’t Steal a Car”... But Would You Pirate a Font?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bold of them to think I wouldn’t take a car if they weren’t tracked as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mark Zuckerberg Says Social Media Is Over⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the reason I log into Facebook like once every week or two.

  I like to make sure someone didn’t die, and I miss the funeral.

  I choose my town co-op that doesn’t sell my info, amd doesn’t care that I torrent. 🙂
