What dirt do the Israelis have on everyone?
Why does being a billionaire seemingly strip most people of their fucking balls?


What if I use AI to gender bend myself, and put a disclaimer in really tiny text somewhere?


Ol Petey has been sucking his own farts for too long.
The United States Military undeniably has a technological and financial lead compared to basically every other nation.
He forgot that it doesn’t matter if you have a lead when you don’t have a plan to use any of that shit. You could put a chimpanzee in the cockpit of an F35, that doesn’t mean it can do anything productive with it. That’s Pete Hegseth.


I do think really light, local LLM’s are the future of NPC interaction.
Not for main story missions, but for random encounters they could add a nice layer of immersion.


The fun part about windows is you don’t know if it’s breaking because of the coke code from the 80’s or the vibe code from the ‘20s.
Because mint is familiar. The GUI and most of the keyboard shortcuts are similar to windows. The install is quick and easy, and for the most part everything will just work and be similar to what they’re used to.
Some people just want to be able to turn on their computer and do stuff without having to get used to a whole new UI.


Have you considered not dropping your phone in water?


The problem is that Tesla has become a self fulfilling prophecy. Not in any ability to actually make the products they advertise, but in making investors money. So many people have invested so much that the stock price now effectively describes investor’s aspirations for money, not their faith in Tesla. This has been true for some time. The value of the stock has been largely divorced from the reality of production targets, new products, or even the endless controversies.
I’ve had the opposite experience. Mint has just worked on literally every piece of hardware I’ve ever owned.


Everything is higher than the government reports.
Trump fired the guy that reported the unemployment numbers for reporting accurate numbers. I assume everything since is propaganda.
Two words: Breakfast Sausage.
They use breakfast sausage instead of Italian for their sausage.
I ordered a pizza from there once and spit it out.
How do they still have business?


The drama is that this is an entirely unnecessary step that adds extra work for the technician/owner that wants to change rear brake pads/rotors, which are a wear item.
I’ve been doing brakes on mine and my family’s cars for over a decade. It’s dramatically cheaper to buy pads and rotors and swap them myself, and if I do it myself I know that it was done right and there’s antiseize everywhere it should be. So now in addition to all the work of jacking the car up, removing tires, removing the calipers, depressing the caliper, cleaning the hub, coating the hub with antiseize, cleaning the guide pins, reinstalling and torquing everything to spec, I now have to get a battery/transformer/charger and wire into a sensor to tell the stupid fucking computer that the pads and rotors are new. Why can’t the computer use a position sensor to just detect that there’s now thicker material there? Why isn’t there just an option in the maintenance settings that you can press to say that you’ve done the work and to reset the maintenance interval? Fuck this shit, doing brakes is already a time sink if you live in the rust belt, and this system adds nothing but an extra cost or extra work to the person performing the work. There’s no safety gain from it existing, it’s fucking stupid.
I know right, I lived there for nearly 500 years and never saw a single vampire!
Humans do not currently have the technology to create long term, self-sustaining closed ecosystems.
No one on earth has successfully created one, and biodome was cut short due to private equity buying it out and basically forcing the project to shut down.
The billionaire bunkers may be designed for long term survival, but they will have a finite amount of food at least. Water can be replaced via wells, electricity can be generated with SMNRs(if the billionaires even own those), and food may be able to be supplemented for a while with grow lights, but eventually the soil will deplete due to not having a sustainable ecosystem.
All we have to do is poor concrete in front of the entrance and wait.


What have you run into that sticks out to you?
I’m curious because I’ve been on Linux full-time for 2 years now and an avid user for years before, but my friend is thinking of switching and I want to know what he might need help with.


It’s very strange.
Most games will just launch, no problems. But then you’ll get one title like the above poster has, that just refuses to launch no matter what you do.
Most of the times there’s a work around on ProtonDB that will get you running in a few minutes. But sometimes it feels like, or is the case, where the developers actively prevent the game from launching on Linux.


False positives implies the people will be real.
It’ll probably just invent people to hunt down and waste a bunch of tax dollars.


Those damn ones
It’s just the Aero glass from win 7 on an iPhone. I don’t mind it
