“Today we are talking about certain leaks in which the American president is demanding that the GCC states pay approximately $5 trillion if they want this war to continue, and if they want it to stop, they must pay $2.5 trillion to the United States for what has been accomplished over the past period,” Juhouri said.
Makes about as much sense any anything little donnie says, could believe that.
- Comment on Why do people hate AI so much? 3 weeks ago:
I have split opinions on it. The massive data centers that use so much power, hardware, space, etc are problematic. They get used as a replacement for human ingenuity, scarf down every bit of data the can, aggregate it together in a way that even the owners don’t fully understand. They get manipulated to give answers that suit the owner’s wishes and fuel divisions in public discourse.
I take significantly less issue with locally run small model systems that you can put on your own machine. They’re not continually running/training and are generally treated more as a hobby toy, not some replacement for human understanding.
- Comment on A fun anti-monopoly law and anti-enshitification measure would be that once you hit 50% of market share you are forced to link to alternatives on your page 3 weeks ago:
So base it on the parent corporation, and added bonus, no linking to your own companies as ‘competitors’.

Multi comms is likely an instance ban, which they hand out freely on the .ml instance for anyone not in line with their ideology.

And his time in office ended about 9 years ago, so 55 at the time.

Haven’t been there in a couple decades, but that kind of 1984 BS would put them from passively skipping to actively disliking.

Couple dead pixels from a particularly bright light might well make them unable to do their plate reading job efficiently. Might make for an interesting study.
- Comment on Liminal Space 1 month ago:
Every time certain segments of society speak it causes small potions of the audience’s brains to drip out of their ears. These bits are scraped up off the floor and, after mixing well with some tapioca, come to plausibly resemble the mental functions of the person last heard speaking.

If one wants to be an ‘aktually’ arse then take note that ‘declawing’ is actually a much more precise term than ‘mutilation of extremities’ which could perfectly well mean putting their tail in a wood chipper and be technically correct
- Comment on Beans 1 month ago:
On a whole I don’t support any sort of unnecessary bodily modification, declawing, tail bobbing, circumcisions, or whatever.
What bothers me is when people find it necessary to interject some unneeded drivel because of some passing word that’s a perfectly well accepted term.

- Comment on What type of computer setup would one need to run ai locally? 1 month ago:
My go to for messing with chat bots is Kobold that’ll let you split the work between multiple GPUs. I get the impression the actual processing is only done on one but it lets you load larger models with the extra memory.

I was using a Nvidia 3060 for a while, then had 2 in one box, then switched to a 3090.
The amount of vram is a big factor for decent performance. Getting it to not sound like a predictably repetitive bot though is a whole separate thing that is still kind of elusive.
- Comment on Rechargeable electric arc lighters kinda suck for the average person, and will typically end up as e-waste. 1 month ago:
Pretty close, had one for a brief while, mostly used for incense till something got screwy and apparently connected the electrode to the casing to zap the hell out of me.

Consistency is key. For many the problem is they think of it as something you need to do for a while and then go back to ’normal’ when really you should be looking for a new normal.
Apps can help, the best one is the one you actually use honestly and routinely.

Unless you’re a huge person to start or have massive water weight you don’t. A pound of fat is approximately 3,000 calories, so you would need an almost 3K deficit every day to drop that, and since most people eat around that much as their normal intake that’s an extreme amount that could be deemed starvation.
Now if you happen to be huge where the normal body functioning uses well past that then maybe, but if you’re anywhere below 300 lbs that would be a crazy amount for 2 months.

No idea, never had a reddit account and not sure there’s a place on the fedi to support a 3rd party site. Just seems an odd thing for a first post on what’s functionally a reddit alternative to ask how to get back on reddit.

It’s a mouse, they used to just be a simple thing you plug in, get a basic driver from the OS and it makes a cursor move.
