People don’t like being proven wrong, and often try to dismiss it with some variation of “Im not gonna sit here and be told the whatfer by some random idiot”

Like, excuse me sir, you are the random idiot, because you were the one that was wrong.

So when it came to registering on Lemmy, that popped up in my head and bobs your uncle.

Real nice honeypot too, every time someones wrong and backs themselves into a corner instead of admitting they are wrong, they inevitably give some variation of “living up to your user name, huh”, which just continues to prove that the actual idiot is the one lashing out like that.

Always gonna be someone that argues.

Hell, if I said Nuclear Bombs were dangerous, someone would come in and be all like " Yeah, well, you say that, but Tsutomu Yamaguchi survived two atomic bombs, so they cant be that dangerous!"

Turning your TV off and on frequently shortens its lifespan significantly, You know… Honestly, turning anything off and on frequently shortens its lifespans significantly, even lightbulbs.

Never turn my PC off, regardless of OS. (Edit. under normal day to day operation. I only technically turn my PC off and unplug it on the rare occasions where I have to travel and be away from home for more than a couple days, and I turn off and unplug most my expensive electronics when I do so, partly as fire prevention partly to just protect them)

Introduces to much thermal and electrical stress for my taste, and most assuredly shortens life span of the system/components from my personal experience.

How far to the extreme are they gonna take this “License only as you were born” shit?

Start getting gray hair? Thats not the hair color you were born with, immediate license revocation.

Amputation? Scars? You werent born with those, immediate license revocation.

Hair color was blond at birth, but now is brown? Oh you better believe thats a revocation.

All cause a bunch of sexually repressed bigots cant handle being attracted certain people.

he’ll be swept up by ice for existing, spend 3 weeks in a Totally-Not-Concentration-Camp™ before being deported via airdrop to somewhere in the middle of the Sahara, to far from towns and travel routes to get help before dying of exposure.

While the Bought-And-Paid-For media spin it as a win for americans by dealing with a “Terrorist” that the “Woke Justice System” let go for woke wokeness reasons.

i think its a bit much to still ask the steam deck to run new releases well, especially with valves refusal to release performance updated version unless they can make major, foundational improvements such that it would basically be a steam deck 2

the steam deck is 4 years old, afterall, and it wasnt exactly a top end machine when it released… being little more than a slightly modified APU based system.

Same reason conservatives don’t want conservative women.

They don’t want something that fits their interests and opinions.

They want to beat and conquer something that thinks differently from them, and mold them into something that is subservient to their interest and opinions.

as long as there are no checks and balances, as long as no one exists with the will and sense of duty to do their job, there is no distinction between legal and illegal.

Now all it needs to do is randomize your fingerprint.

because your fingerprint can be just as, if not more identifiable and trackable, than your cookies and such.

Because if something exists in a vacuum, without challenge, then theres no motivation for betterment and no repercussions for enshitification.

probably the same reason I refused to let it go.

I actually own it, control it, and can use it at my wimsy.

vs streaming, which I could buy it and still have it taken away from me cause you never own anything when its streaming/digital download.

worker productivity continues to climb ever higher, yet wages never grow with it.

take someone from the 1950s office and ask them to do the same amount of work that an officer worker today does, and they’d quit on the spot. especially since they’d be paid less today than they were in the 1950s as far as buying power goes.

No, I dont use it.

I get enough hallucinations and blatant lies from biologicals, I don’t need an AI erasing a mountain to consume the coal underneath to tell me made up bullshit.

Line must goes up until it hits a ceiling, then system collapses… but line go up again after!

remember that ram drive that gigabyte made like 20+ years ago?

That worked by putting sticks of ram in it, with… i think AA batteries? to maintain the data during power downs?

AI is the last great bubble.

And it, like all bubbles, will pop.

You are already seeing the people in the know flee the field.

You see reports that every company that has adopted it has at best changed nothing, at worst lost money on it.

Outside of the psychotic linked in CEO bubble, literally no one wants AI. And every day its generating more and more hate due to its halucinations, mistakes, and bullshit.

Its garnering massive negative attention for its use, and for anyone stupid enough to adopt it at this point (cough intel cough)

Its a dying star, and people are frantically trying to harvest the last bits of warmth from it before going off in search of new horizons.

i mean, i thought you were wanting to save money…

a predictable lemmy.ml user retort.

probably wont delete the other data either. just make it so the profile doesnt show as existing anymore and claim its deleted.

These companys are addicted to data and will never give it up.
