“Every nation gets the government it deserves.”

Give that bowling pin legs and flamboyance.

Ok

Yes. We like teeth.

You come close enough to the border with your mouth open and your attention diverted…we gonna get them teeth out your mouth.

Real sneaky-like.

Somewhere, a Genie is howling with laughter at the magnitude of that wasted wish.

Because we’re more akin to LLMs than we might be comfortable to admit. Or at least parts of us, subsystems of our psyches… Brains are belief engines more than they are objective parsers of reality.

Odd. I retired from arch to Manjaro. I’m baffled at the depiction of it being difficult. It’s been a smooth 6 years so far…and yes, Nvidia.

Wow fuckin’ wooosh with you and that one hey? Only a very weak beta would feel even remotely attacked by that movie. Good luck Chuck!

Deep cromulence.

Same sitch out on the island…

I admire your dedication to the bit.

Having played TOTK on both the deck and on a bigger brother Linux desktop, it’s for sure better on a machine that can has a reasonable, dedicated GPU. It’s passable on the deck, enjoyable on the desktop.

Super cool, just installed this, and eager to spend a workday with it now, thanks!

Wow! My kinfolk are here!

It may very well be renewable. I’m really more referring to the inefficient way in which the sums are calculated. Those data centers get warmish.

And yeah, AI is just the next thing we decided to punish our GPUs with. Crazy how we’ve used that part of the computer these last few decades…

I’m more engaged in a chat gpt session that I am staying up till 4 am watching line graphs of crypto prices, guilty as charged 😁. Not sure what comment it makes about society other than “we seem pretty lonely, everything ok?”

Duranium-on-the-Mohs-scale hard pass. Tickets work fine.

What’s baffling to me is the ramping up of the 21st century penchant for mindless wheel-re-inventing.

Yes but 65000 TPS for Bitcoin would likely have the planet glowing much brighter in the infrared… possibly even the visible, for all the heat we’d need to dump.

A rich, warm, and sterilized world!
