Turn the phone upside down


Not any more. Just bought an EV new for about the same price as I bought for an ICE in 2019 before adjusting for inflation.
They are getting cheaper as they get more ubiquitous. If you have an ICE that runs fine, don’t rush out to replace it, but if you’re in the market for a new car you should seriously consider EV.


Every gig I would tell myself I’d label everything. On average I’d label 95% of video cables, and 50% of the data cables


Broadcast jobs. Every single job you run, and then later pull, dozens or hundreds of data cables.
Oh, labelling? Forget it. You’ll label the first batch, and then be in a frantic rush that nothing else is labelled. Just a messy spreadsheet that you try to not forget.


Unfortunately there is no realistic way that people would boycott GTA for anything, let alone this. People tried to rally for a Sony boycott and it has as much affect as a bug trying to push back a truck.


This is the problem with social media. Outrage drives clicks, so “feminism” is portrayed as a caricature of brightly died hair, “ugly” women, feeble men, and the stereotype of unemployed art students.
It’s exactly what we were warned about in books like 1984 and animal farm. The media controls thoughts, who controls the media?


Spider-Man (PS4) was just a worse Arkham with web slinging. And it sounds like Wolverine is just a worse Spider-Man without web slinging.


It’s a lot harder to paint lanes in the sky


Doesn’t sound like an “or”, sounds like a developmental issue.
I think it’s natural for everyone to go through a stage of questioning the meaning of life, but if your end answer is “I just wish I was a kid again/stupid so I don’t have to worry about it” then give failed to mature intellectually.
I agree that it could be brought on by child abuse or other trauma. I’m not trying to place blame on the individual, everyone’s circumstance is different. Either way, I think it’s sad, and I hope those people find a way to improve.


Same with Blu Ray. People claim that porn was responsible for the adoption of it over HD-DVD, but Bluray was a disc with nearly double the capacity in the same form factor. In what world would people choose HD-DVD?
People didn’t care that betamax was technically better quality. You couldn’t record an entire sports game on a betamax tape.


This is why I’ve not used one. The whole point of passwords is privacy, yet people put them all in one place controlled by someone else where you have no way to verify how secure they actually are. And you need a password to get into it, so now there’s one password that could be breached to gain access to everything.


Which do you want? A single physical disc that is a tangible product? Or access to a server that has data redundancy?
You seem to want the guarantee of high availability servers but expect to claim ownership of the data. You never owned the data, and you don’t now.


I don’t believe resale was ever part of the licensing.


If you buy a CD with software and it gets shipped to your house, you own the disc, not the software. It’s always been this way, we are just now living in a world where the technology exists to take the software away from you after you paid.
I miss when KH was Disney × Final Fantasy.
They were both bad dudes, but only one went on a murderous revenge spree and killed children. I’d suggest that one was the real monster.


More than that, if the legal age of consent was 40, then 41 would be “barely legal”. Why do people use the term negatively (or positively for that matter). It’s just so arbitrary.


“barely legal” is such a disingenuous attack.
Is it legal? Yes. What’s the problem? Something will always be “barely legal”. Even if we decide that it’s immoral and make it illegal, something else will still always be “barely legal”.
If you think something is immoral, then just say so. If a bunch of consenting adults do something that doesn’t harm anyone, mind your own business.
They already are dogshit.
If your LLM prompt isn’t about something common or mainstream is has an incorrect response most of the time. Unfortunately due to how they work, they will present the incorrect answers with the same confidence as correct answers.
LLMs seem like their only use is writing reports or resumes that no one needs to read. Everything else is better done by hand.
