No worries my dude.

Now go back and read the thread where I have been talking about autosave the whole time.
- Comment on Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward 1 day ago:
You can save locally by pressing the save icon, yes. But if you want it to autosave every 10 minutes it only allows you to use onedrive as a destination.
- Comment on Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward 2 days ago:
You haven’t been able to autosave locally for many years already.

There are covers that mess up photography but still work for viewing normally with your eyes.
- Comment on Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward 2 days ago:
Actually it had auto save for more than a decade. It’s just that now they removed the ability to autosave locally, it must be to onedrive.

Depends how good the robots get.

But the billionaires won’t need us as slaves once they have their fleets of robots.
- Comment on If AI takes most of our jobs, money as we know it will be over. What then? 1 week ago:
There will still be money, we just won’t have any. The rich will have armies of robots and watch us all starve to death.

Since this article gave you everything except the one thing you want to see, here’s what the Equal Earth projection looks like

- Comment on It shocked the market but has China's DeepSeek changed AI? 2 weeks ago:
I dunno, I’ve asked it to do increasingly more complex tasks and it’s obliged. Stuff like take these 10 pages of handwritten tables and ocr them and make a .csv out of them. It’s inventing a whole process to do that. Same with some examples of it programming entire games. You need some procedural thinking to do those things.

- Comment on Marco Rubio orders US diplomats to launch lobbying blitz against Europe's tech law 3 weeks ago:
Listen, no one should knowingly and willingly put their countries through more pain just to “win”. I’m sure they calculated that the reduction in destruction was worth a try. They have levers to pull if it doesn’t, but it will just create a lot of destruction for all sides.

Is said trash can full or empty though? Those are two completely different scales.
- Comment on We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us 3 weeks ago:
Those are the only 2 ways I can imagine having a child and not making some sacrifices, yes. Your insults do nothing to further your point.
- Comment on So glad I suck dick 3 weeks ago:
Literally any non-ml instance would be a way better choice. Also avoid hexbear. The rest are pretty solid. I’m happy with speed of Lemmus.org, but lemmy.world worked fine for me too.

This is how they enforce the CCP’s social values.
- Comment on So glad I suck dick 3 weeks ago:
They are just trying to be like the CCP, their heroes. Wait until they roll out their social credit system in upcoming Lemmy releases!
- Comment on We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us 3 weeks ago:
Yes I understand this is coming from people who feel (probably rightly) that their parents weren’t good parents and didn’t do enough for them, and which may have said the things you mention.
But even taking all of that as true, those parents, as bad as they may have been, still made sacrifices for their kids. I agree that this is a horrible thing to hang over their heads, but it doesn’t make it untrue either.
I also agree you are signing up for this usually thankless job and should be ready for that. But that also doesn’t negate the fact that you are making some sacrifices to be a parent.
- Comment on We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us 3 weeks ago:
It’s an expectation and a sacrifice. By having kids you made the choice to make some sacrifices.
In the definition of sacrifice there is no provision for how much you wanted to make said sacrifice or what the motivation was. Simply that you gave one thing up for another thing you found more important.
sacrifice /săk′rə-fīs″/ noun The act of giving up something highly valued for the sake of something else considered to have a greater value or claim. “Social activism often involves tremendous sacrifice.”
- Comment on We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us 3 weeks ago:
This is true for any sort of sacrifice. Volunteering, saving people from burning buildings, etc.
- Comment on We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us 3 weeks ago:
Yes I suppose you could apply that to anything and say sacrifice doesn’t exist for anything. But since we are discussing it, I don’t think we are in the mindspace you are proposing.
- Comment on We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us 3 weeks ago:
Being a good parent and making sacrifices are not the same. It’s impossible to be a parent without making sacrifices. It’s possible to make said sacrifices and still be a bad parent.
- Comment on We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us 3 weeks ago:
Try being a parent and get back to me. There isn’t a parent in the world that doesn’t make sacrifices. Even bad ones do. There’s no way to raise a kid without time and money and loss of sleep. Even if you do a bad job.
