interesting… If I have to leave the house on time, shower is the actual wake-up call for me. Alarm is just to get me to sleep walk into the shower

Wait - if you don’t shower every day, how do you wake up fully? :p

Technically inclined to agree but The Long Dark implements this rather well…

This here is one likely answer. One other (less likely) might be insurance, although I would have to strain my imaginatiom quite a bit to come up with an explanation that nakes insurance a good reason to do this for a christmas party vs. a regular drive to work. Maybe they want to prevent “fraternization” by making clear “we know where your rental cars will spend the night”? ;)

Even assuming your observation was universally true (which I doubt, I firmly believe people can irreversibly deteriorate) - there are circumstances that can prevent you from reaching people. To name the immediate two that come to mind:

• lack of “alone” time that they will spend with you due to family / spouses / jobs
• you simply do not find the key (again, assuming it exists) to “peel back” their layer of anger and frustration that clouds their objectivity

Gen X here, sadly can confirm :( I see what used to be friends turn into selfish people, ignorant derps or conspiracy/russia shills. Or a combination thereof. It’s depressing to watch this process up close and have no antidote.

is this “AI” you speak of in the room with you right now? If you believe that machine-learned pattern recognition and word prediction algorithms are “AI”, you shouldn’t be left anywhere near a compiler or production code.

That’s like asking the world’s best FPS gamers to “just try an aimbot”. Actual programmers do far better than a machine-learned bullshit printer.

So, I vibe-coded a new one

“I love to enable oligarchs and fascists”

That has got to be a deeply sarcastic joke, hasn’t it?

username checks out…

and you can make said sims do the violence out of free will.

I think I just had a brain aneurism reading that :p

While you are technically correct, I think it is fair to draw a line at Mar-a-Lago face. Ridiculing white supremacist bimbos who intentionally choose that look… I am kind of okay with that. Because the look itself is a symbol of hate.

dmcrypt for backup drives. Ideally with detached encryption header, stored separately.

It’s good enough to answer most questions and it will only get better.

Reality indicates the opposite.

Even if it is not AI it is a tool that knowledge workers use and will need to stay competitive.

People who use machine learned systems to handle “knowledge” will dilute actual knowledge with billions of factual errors and fuck up mankinds knowledge base.

1. it’s not AI, regardless of how many idiots repeat that bullshit. It is machine learning with glorified pattern recognition.

2. Why would anyone want to enter the market? It has no practical use that justifies the energy consumption. Because it is not targeted, for every individual application, there are much more efficient ways to accomolish the same/better results for much less energy.

Forgot the drive but a shout-out for Final Space lovers!

No, nvidia are evil unreliable pieces of shit.

*had Fuck google and every piece of shit implementing this for them.

*owlplosions it was right there yet you missed it :(
